Wow, and $44k didn't meet the reserve?

Actually, it came up about 3:45 (earlier than the revised  schedule).
I was able to watch it live from their website.  I don't  know how many
bidders were still there but by the time the Tiger came up,  they were
really whipping them through, it only got a couple minutes.
It  got a bid of $44K.

Some comments (not exact quotes but what I can  remember) by Drew
the auction owner:
"I have owned several of  these"
"You can't get an interior this nice except from the  factory"   (I guess he
never heard of Martha Wheat  or Paul Reisentz)
"It has all the original ID tags and even a BAR  sticker"    (wonder why it
had that?)
"Some  people try to make baby Cobra's out of these but they are best
left  stock"

And the best one:
"This should sell for  $90K"

Well the storm damage  and subsequent delays changed the auction 
schedule considerably and the  Tiger didn't get on stage until about 5 
PM yesterday afternoon.  By  that time the crowd had thinned and many 
had already headed for  home.  The bidding on the Tiger and Brad's 
other two cars did not  make his reserves, so he will be taking all of 
them home.  Probably a  lot of unhappy campers as a result of this 
stormy event, including the  insurance companies.
