Nice! I've been very curious about how easy it is to finalize a transaction on BaT these days...are car moving services working, etc?

Will be interested to hear how it plays out.

GLWA!

Hopefully the BAT collective will tend on the less-more annoyingly anal side for you, rather than the more-more annoyingly anal side.

Wow cool ... can’t wait to watch the auction and hear what you think of the experience.

Is the inspection and under carriage a BAT thing that is required?


What is it like dealing with BAT ?

Do they help with the ad ?

They seem on the controlling side ...

It is a cool car. The LXs were always the best 5.0s. It would be great fun to drive around, even today.

But...yeah that is too much money for a Fox body Mustang that isn't a well-cared for SVO or Cobra.
