“Abandoned 1969 Plymouth GTX Convertible”

I hope this is a typo and not truly as noted.
Surely this is a “seized” vehicle. But hey,
weird things happen!

From someone else...



"Also the car needs MAJOR work. From another site I'm on with someone who actually LOOKED over this car:

"Ian and I inspected this car in person last Saturday, as it is located just a few miles from his home and he was very interested.

To say it is a major project is an understatement; needs nearly all body panels, floor boards and much more.
Has an old shiny paint job that hides much in the pictures. Ian was "in" at 25k, which we agreed was ALL the money. It is a real R4 red RS27,
meaning 440 GTX convertible, but is a column automatic.

So doing the math; 25k + minimum of 50k for a driver quality resto + fees puts it at about 80k. Sounds like 80k in a 50-60k car to me.

Trust me...she is a MAJOR project and whoever the high bidder is now is in for a huge surprise!"
 
Thanks. Interesting story. Old muscle cars (replicas, recreations, tributes & fakes) are like gold now. Like one of the comments in the Haggerty article said after restoration costs for $85,000 you can have a nice $65,000 car. And there are people standing in line to do it.
 
Do people really bid site unseen $50k plus on an auction site with 4-5 very basic pictures? Seems kinda foolish to me....
