That leaves my buddy out. He went up there with 20k hoping to score. Told him it would probably take more than 20k to get the car. The car looks great if it's in the shape I hope its in........

Hard to tell from pictures but it will surprise me if it doesn't bring a lot more than that

They found the owner off a receipt for carpet in the trunk.

$48k that's bullcrap. That paint looks like a ten footer and I'll bet there's bodywork. I'm sure there are $50k GTX's, but I'd bet this isn't one..... Just sayin

I have to agree with you on that. There are more pics on the FB page and its a bench seat, auto on the column, 440 car and the interior is good at best, so not sure whats driving the price so high.

After seeing those pix with some up close views, it reinforces that this is a nice car, that needs a proper restoration to be valuable once more. That paint job did more damage than good.
