All it takes is the right buyer at the right time. He had to wait for a few years, but he made it back to where the car was valued back in 2008. But I wonder how much the owner lost in consignment fees over all these auctions?
1969 RAIV Trans Am's don't go through TV auctions very often. The last one was (I believe) the column shift car that sold for around $105K back in 2006 at Barrett-Jackson.
