Local owner is thinking of selling her 66. It has 19,500 original mile. Documented from day one. Garage kept from day one. The nicest non restored car I've ever seen. I'm guessing it will pull $20k on bring a trailer, your thoughts?

100% agree with you there-- should go well north of 20k if its as nice as you say! They are only original once!

If it's in really nice condition with no rust and all original, I couldn't see why it wouldn't fetch $30,000. Just need the right buyer.

If it's the car I think it is, I would Ebay with a $22500.00 or a bit higher reserve and submit to BAT. Might take a few rounds for it to go but it will. This is the season to do it.
Other option, attend some high end car shows and park it with a for sale sign. Carlisle is in a few weeks, Marty is going

It's red of course. Some mods (wheels, foglights) that can be reversed. All original parts were saved, including original tires.

What's the story on 19k in 50years?
I would think BaT would love to auction it!

Choice to set a reserve is up to the seller, but BaT will "help" you with the amount

She bought it with 7500 miles about 15 years ago. It was on eBay. Discussed at length on the original roadster list at that point. They have done some mods, nothing major, more upkeep. I told her BAT would be my choice. If I didn't have my 1500, I'd buy it.

Looks like the heater core is bypassed though the car is lovely.

I have seen this car a few times over the past few years and it is very nice car. It was one of the first low winshields I saw in the flesh....I was envious. I wanted to buy it then. Now I am strictly U20 high windshields else...

Don't believe the dual mirrors are original. My 69, which is 99.9 original, has only a driver’s side mirror. Optima battery is not original group or size. Hose clamps are not original wire type, and paint on valve cover looks nice but is not original. I obviously am being a stickler on originality.
