Hi Everyone
A question about this current BaT auction.
I’m posting here out of respect for the seller because his auction might not be ending the way he/she had hoped…..
So here’s my question. If someone wants to do a full-on rotisserie professional E9 restoration with one of the well-known shops (insert a name here!), does it really matter the starting point? Would a different “in better” condition E9 actually cost less than the current BaT auction car to do a full restoration on? Or will the 6-figure professional restoration shop price be the same regardless of what E9 rolls into the shop? (I’m not going to even pretend I can do professional work myself).
Thanks for the expert advice. I’m about to professionally restore my E9 out of pure passion and love with zero intent to flip it. The condition of my E9 is similar to the current Bat auction. At the end of the day, will my checkbook require about the same number from “the big shops” regardless of beginning condition?
Do I do the resto on mine, or better to “part it” and start the search all over?
