Reply to "Speedster project at Sotheby's"

Honestly, guys, the price is WAY cheap by current standards (stupid, yes). An auction estimate of $125-150k for a car like that is not realistic. I went to see a Speedster in Costa Mesa in 2016 with the floors completely rotted out -- and they sell in the mid $100k range (see picture -- I went with the late Bill Doyle's [4 cam legend] former right hand man, Scott, a buddy of mine).

This car is a 1958 super (the BEST Speedster year and spec you could get short of a 59 Carrera GT) and it is all there, sans side spears. That is the key -- original parts that can be restored. $150-200k later with Willhoit on the body and Victor Miles on the trim, and this will be a $600,000 car. I see the car going for $250k all day long.

Gee...maybe I should register...
