You had to have a dealer license to bid in the auction. The car did not meet the reserve. The high bidder has a chance to meet the reserve or it will be relisted.

That's not really clear on their website. Look forward to seeing what happens.
It clearly states down below that you do not have to be a dealer and a comment from a customer says that he is very happy about being able to bid without being one. All but one picture are now gone, kinda interesting.

That is why I and others screen shot the pics. Posted in prior replies

I believe it was more in the high 60s
Thanks. I wasa away for a long meeting. Came back and it said 33,500. I refreshed the screen and got this "SOLD". Even in the 60s was a good buy I'd think.

Can you add more pics or do you want me to do it?

This is a thread for documenting the list of cars, but not each car in detail, I suggest starting a new thread with what is known, and the additional pictures so we do not take this thread beyond why I started it.

Thanks

Bill
here are some I saved.

Whats that box beside the added oil cooler in grill area lh front ?
Funny in that the prior owner can post a dozen times a day on nothing but cannot come on this topic and just answer some questions like yours.
He did answer with this  ::)            https://www.saacforum.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=b54nv46k60thkhd2ev03gm3ou1&topic=25751.msg190723#msg190723
MODIFIED Jan 23-yesterday. HMM, couldn't do this for the last 14 months? Thanks for bringing that to light but he still hasn't said what led to the fire which another poster asked. Only modified and added to his original post after it became another topic right here. I guess the question is why is that?  So to be clear Mr Tech he didn't answer the questions asked here and the one by Ed I quoted.

I never met Sarah but she was involved locally with the local Mustang club here in Detroit I believe  when she met Gary. I believe she married him and moved to Vegas?  She and Gary are back for Mustang events from time to time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-IZ_2CjSx0

The Florida salvage title lists it as "rebuildable". I don't think its a big deal considering its documented now.

The vendors retail value is laughable. I wonder what their reserve is?
My thought is what did the owner have insurance wise? Did he under insure it? Many do. I harp on my friend who has his 71 HEMI Cuda under insured until this week(bringing it to a car show). But my friend has about 17 collector cars and a bunch are 6 figure cars. So say it was under insured at 80K. The insurance company says 75K to fix. Total it out and pay the insured. If this car was insured for 150-200K it wouldn't have been totaled out. Maybe the prior owner would want to chime in? Or maybe too embarrassed to admit it if he did. All I know is this car at what it could have been insured for it should be in all cases be fixed-unless it was under insured and running their numbers the insurance company would total it out.

Has anyone confirmed if the car has a salvage or clear title? Their assistant only answered that it was on the page. All I see is asterisks next to title. Update I created a profile and it came back as Salvage/rebuildable title.

What is the correct snake emblem for the rear fenders on a 1969 GT350 convertible?  Is it the C9OZ-16228A adhesive-backed snake emblem that is typically listed on eBay?
Good question as I found out there are 2 snakes. 1 for the rear quarter on verts and a more flatter one for the roof. I made a "mold" for checking them and gave it to a friend who has a large ziplock bag filled with snake emblems from a guy who worked for the company that made them for Ford. I actually own both varieties of these snakes.

Is there any other info. out there on this one-number match, rust, panel swaps, previous owners etc.
Since it was FLA-SAAC's car maybe Tony can shed some light. Maybe not as he might be bidding on it. Only a few hours north of him in crappy Ft Pierce(stay on the Island portion when visiting).

Rule #1.....always have a fire extinguisher in your car......both personal car and collector car

I have personally put out 3 car fires ( others) in the last 5-7 years.
Back seat on the floor. I got 4 in my garage at home. Check gas line hoses periodically.
