Default 1974 T/A SD for sale in New Zealand

Bit of a rare bird here. Looks mostly unmolested - towbar is odd. Opening bid is around $30K at the current exchange rate, but I suspect the reserve will be a lot higher.

You don't see tow bars on Firebirds very often, but they were available through the aftermarket. I had one on a 1974 Formula that I owned in the early 1980s. I also had a 1979 W72 WS6 4-spd car that had one. The previous owner used it to tow a Jetski. I have a 1978 rear bumper with a trailer hitch welded on.

Didn't meet reserve. Seller has offered a BIN to anyone that was watching the auction of $81K (NZD). That's roughly $47K (USD) at today's exchange rate.
