I sort of bought a car on BAT. I had decided I wanted a 356 C Coupe and started looking at BAT pretty regularly. I ended up finding a car that was a no sale on BAT back in January on Northern CA. I tracked the owner down through the registry and we put a deal together over several months of COVID shutdown. We drove down and picked it up after an inspection by one of the foremost 356 shops down there. I was hoping to see it but with the travel restrictions I ended up canceling flights twice. The shop knows way more than I do anyway but I was a bit nervous. It was better than advertised and I'm thrilled with it. Maybe go through some no sale cars and see if you can track the owners down.

I wouldn't buy one sight unseen. I did that once with an 82SC and ended up being ok on the car but had I seen it in person first, I would have walked away. The guy was another Pelican and I got a false sense of security with that and a PPI that ended up being worthless.
