Definitely nice to see the underside seemingly pressure-washed to not see crud hiding potential issues, which looks like to me, are none.
Good luck and super cool interior!

Interior color is intoxicating
Post your thoughts on BaT!
That's a proper "red" interior.
Looks well-represented. Shows well in the photos and deficiencies are well documented. Missed opportunity for the Alpina stripes and badges though.
I do think the end time of this auction being 30 min after the “B2S” listing should help it.

I definitely will. I might need a little support from this group myself in a couple of weeks...good luck, Chris! Rising tide and all that...
On politics? No way

Less than 24 hours to go, two bidders have reached out to me which is a first, most never contact the seller they just bid.
Hey Chris, I'm looking through the pictures now but can you tell me how is the rust in general?
I really couldn’t find any. Floor pans are great, surface rust on subframes and suspension bits. I think it is just as solid as my 73 Chamonix.
Chris, you know my car is also a '73 with the 2.5 MPH USA bumpers-VIN 2250486. This car seems to have the '73 front bumper, but the rear bumper is close to the body as are the Euro bumpers with the license plate lights. Was there a reason why the rear bumper was replaced? This is just a forum question I didn't want to add to the BaT posts.
Someone replaced it in the past is all we know.
Bummer on the RNM.
Worth I think upwards of around $65-70k IMHO.

Reserve was only $60K, I thought it would reach maybe $65K.
Poor timing IMO with the $250K fjord monopolizing coverage.
Yep, I agree. Different customers but still…..
Hopefully high bidder was serious and can make out a deal.
Hope it works out. A stroll through eBay could make this car look identical to the other one…
