I'd feel worse if all of the TTAs didnt look like exactly the same car, and if the vast majority weren't sitting in storage like this one was until someone torched it.

$8500 would be absurd money for this car. I really felt like the $3600 plus fee's it ended at was about the right money. Here's a screenshot I saved while watching it run last thursday morning.

I agree. $8500 is outrageous!! I'd like to have that car for parts on my white '88 GTA but not at that price

Looks like the car in the OP made it to the Thirdgen Butcher's Shop.

It would appear thats the second car that sold at $3600 & then was re-listed. oddly the car disappeared from my watch list so he must have bought it. Not sure if it really ran twice, or if it was just a glitch in their system.

Is he in Portland Oregon?

Weird.

Looks like a good home for it. I'd rather seen clean, rare parts go to a good home, improving someone else s car, than rebuilt as a rolling wreck.
