Wow, and $44k didn't meet the reserve?

Actually, it came up about 3:45 (earlier than the revised schedule).
I was able to watch it live from their website. I don't know how many
bidders were still there but by the time the Tiger came up, they were
really whipping them through, it only got a couple minutes.
It got a bid of $44K.
Some comments (not exact quotes but what I can remember) by Drew
the auction owner:
"I have owned several of these"
"You can't get an interior this nice except from the factory" (I guess he
never heard of Martha Wheat or Paul Reisentz)
"It has all the original ID tags and even a BAR sticker" (wonder why it
had that?)
"Some people try to make baby Cobra's out of these but they are best
left stock"
And the best one:
"This should sell for $90K"

Well the storm damage and subsequent delays changed the auction
schedule considerably and the Tiger didn't get on stage until about 5
PM yesterday afternoon. By that time the crowd had thinned and many
had already headed for home. The bidding on the Tiger and Brad's
other two cars did not make his reserves, so he will be taking all of
them home. Probably a lot of unhappy campers as a result of this
stormy event, including the insurance companies.
