Didn't the seller have a reserve to protect himself?

The owner was in financial trouble and the bank held the titles to his collection so if there was any money on the cars, the reserves came off. A nice SD formula sold for 61K which is a great deal and a RA IV 70 TA for 91K, a 69 TA for 46K. There were some great deals on those cars. I am still kicking myself for not going higher on that L88

Steve, Go to Mecums website and for the Indy auction look up lot number S119 for more info.
I will try to attach the info below, looks like it worked.

Phil, I have a feeling the car has already been resold as it's not on the new arrivals. I missed my chance and am OK with that.

Re: L88 at Mecum auction

I wonder how long it's been without a motor and why. It must be pretty hard to move around without one. Anyone care to explain to me how a car can score 95.5 in NCRS judging without a motor?
