    Re: Bloomington Gold L88

    Remember, no one MADE Dave sell the car (well, maybe his wife ).
    Why he decided to take $615,000 now vs. turning down nearly $750,000 a few years ago is beyond me.

    I just wonder if there was some shill bidding a few years ago to get it up near reserve and see if someone would take it. But, that's just a thought I had, nothing more. No proof.

            Clem, you should know full well that according to NCRS, that isn't restamping, that is restoration. And it only has 12 miles on it.

            Odd, I always thought when a car was truly restored, the miles started over again anyway. At least many of them have 10 or 20 or so on their odometers anyway.
