#1 Concours - $47,700#2 Excellent - $33,400#3 Good - $25,400
Being realistic, y reserve on the car islower than the #3 number! And this is absolutely not a #3 condition car. Someone is going to get one of the nicest restored, ell sortedperformance Mach 1's out there at an incredible price. Don't wait - Bid Now!
