Equipment
400 370hp, close ratio 4 speed, Hurst T handle shifter, Rally II wheels, red line Firestones, 8 track factory stereo, wing, buckets and console, P S, P B, Saf T Track, hideaway headlights. Gorgeous Black paint. Better than new underhood. Better than showroom, too, in fact better than anything. The only Starlight Black 4 speed RA IV 69 Judge convertible. Bought new by Milt Robsons friend Rut Johnson in Gainesville and later tracked down by Robson and restored by Gilbert Propes over a four year period. Spectacular. No Reserve.
Market commentary
I am mystified by this transaction. 2 3 of a million dollars One of five, count em, 5, RA IV 69 4 speed convertibles OK, so its the only one in Starlight Black. Is that distinction really worth half a million bucks I dont understand, but since this is so rare it is never likely to be needed for assessing some other transaction and I dont feel compelled to take the time to understand the value dymics of its world and will simply take this transaction as an expression of the market. Like paying $32 for a share of GMs post bankruptcy IPO.
