Very informative thread. I'm listing my restored 1972 Alfa Romeo GTV on BAT; they accepted it, their photographer is taking pictures tomorrow.

This is my first time selling on BAT, so if anyone has any tips, please let me know.

thanks

Scott

That's an beautiful example of one of my favorite cars. I'm sure you will do well with it. Expect a full on interrogation from all the Alfisti that will get notified when it hits the site. Auctions there seem to do better when the seller is fully engaged with the comments. Which on cars like yours may get above 100.
Having a driving video where the car is being driven enthusiastically will get folks excited about your car. Just driving thru town in traffic recording it on a cell phone won't that that crowd enthused. The world is jaded from all the car ads on TV showing professional drivers doing what your never supposed to do with their cars.
Hope your ready.
Good luck!
