I think the same dealer had another Fathom Green Z on BAT that also sold for well over $100K. I have to give him props that he does an excellent job marketing his cars with excellent photographs, and he goes out of his way to be a responsive seller answering questions promptly. Sometimes that makes all the difference.
1969 Z's in general seem to be going nuts over on BAT. It's strange, because for years some of us jokingly called it "Bring A Porsche" because that was all that seemed to sell for big money on the site.
For the minimal investment to put a car up for auction, and the fact that you can protect yourself with a reserve, it is getting tempting for me to put one of my cars up over there just to see what would happen. I personally don't see this market sustaining itself for the long term.
