Not BAT, but I wonder if Stuka has relatives in NJ who share his photography talents

No way, several of those photos show the entire car, fully in frame.

For FC, here’s a manual R107 300SL. It’s around the corner from me. The transmission and rear seats make it intriguing, though the AC issues, branded title, and electrical gremlins make it less so.

I'd much rather have this:

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2016-ford-mustang-gt/

Interested to see how it ends up. It's an awesome car for what it is, but the niche is narrow and BAT is an interesting place to try to move it.

It is an interesting choice of venue, though presumably the dozen or so people that would be interested in this car will eventually hear about the BaT auction, since the site has gotten pretty high profile.

Yeah, and I would never be embarrassed to be seen in that . . .the Lebaron however

Will be interesting to see what this mustang goes for if reserve is met
