    Beautiful car. Good luck with the sale, I suspect you will do well on BAT.

    @egchewy79 @JohnnyB @GoDadGo @cnutting thanks gents. As for the process, its pretty easy and stress free, not my 1st time selling on there. All you have to do is pay the $99 listing fee, take your own pictures or pay them for the picture service, give your reserve price and if they except it great if not they will negotiate with you and then type up your details and submit. They put together the listing ad for you to proof read and once you approve it they list it live and you answer all the questions you can in the 7 day long auction. Buyer pays 5% at the end and Bring a trailer give each-other the contact information and you finish the transaction.

    Good Luck & We'll Be Watching!

    I think the black and red combo really does the car justice.
    The interior really sends it over the top so hopefully you'll get the price that you are looking for, plus more.

    Again, Good Luck!

    Beautiful car and nice write-up. My only comment is they don't seem to emphasize it's an IRS build. Obvious in the rear suspension picture but don't see it specifically explained. That's a big point selling point with some buyers.

    Good luck with the sale. Hope you get a good price. You should.

    @GoDadGo much appreciated sir
    @Fman wished it would have gone up just a couple dollars more to get close to breaking even but i at least enjoyed it so those dollars were very well spent.

    Why would you need to negotiate the reserve with BAT? You pay them to list it, and they keep that money even if it doesn't sell. Be curious to learn where their ideal reserve figure for a particular vehicle is derived from, being there can be a vast value difference, with our cars especially.
