That is if the 145K was a real bidder and not a shill.

Doesn't look like it (West Coast dealer), but who knows. The seller definitely had that Jekyll & Hyde personality.

His call. I personally think he should have taken $145k. Too many open questions and things that were added/changed.

FYI, there was another 67 GT500 with a 427 SO on BAT. It sold for $101k in July 2020. @oldcanuck posted a link to it in one of his comments on the auction:

Cheers!

Thanks for the welcome, @oldcanuck! I agree with your points 100%.

To @shelbydoug: This is a forum, last I checked. We are having an open discussion. Seems fitting.

Usual suspects with nothing but time on their hands and no intention of purchase.  Don’t like the BAT format.

PS.  I will say the goofiest shifter bezel mash up I have ever seen.

1. You have no idea who or who does not have the intention of purchasing. Just as you have no idea who is acting on behalf of actual purchasers.

2. As far as BaT format - you don't like it, but many of us do. The seller chose to post his car on the site, so why should he complain about the format? He claimed that he didn't know what BaT was all about. Perhaps he should have pulled the listing.

I totally agree. The seller is way over his head and definitely seems to have the Jekyll & Hyde persona. And he seems to get some sympathy from users. Should have hired someone knowledgeable with Shelbys to sell the car for him. I see this ending in RNM. oldcanuck and shelbymann70 tried to help him ... he is too stubborn for his own good.
