BAT Craziness

Yes, that was the head scratcher for me as well. I don't want to take away from the build as it was kind of cool but one of the reasons the high dollar cars go for so much is the cost to do the paintwork. While this may have nice paint under it, it never said so. If you look at the areas not wrapped it looks like flat black almost primer finish.

The price is, what the price is and someone was willing to pay end of story.

I think the price is crazy however.

As far as the wrap, as good quality wrap is not cheap. I have a friend who charges more for a jeep than a lot of other vehicles because of the time it takes to make it look good because of panels seams and breaks in the body. I can only assume a bronco would be similar.

Agree the market dictates but that is what this thread is all about. Yes a wrap is not cheap but in comparison it is. A good wrap can be had for 4k where quality paint can exceed 20k.

buyers that pays those prices have money to burn. it's probably a tax write off for them.
Value of money is a lot different for those who makes lots of it...

It may be just me being picky, but why not remove the leaves and pine needles from the engine bay????

This one didn't reserve a no sale

With the number of RNMs on the Denvers on BaT, I'm surprised they allow such high reserves. That one should've gone down the road.

I thought so too. But then these sellers are seeing ones like the plain red one that went last week for 80k probably thinking the Denver is worth considerably more.

I was VERY surprised they allowed him to have such a high reserve on that truck. The seller was pretty proud of himself and the truck.

Yeah disappearing and not answering questions when you're trying to get top dollar is a bold strategy
