Big difference between the cars is rust. Grady's car has none, yours does. Both cars will need a total resto but the dry car is a lot easier and simply more valuable because of the original condition of the sheet metal. I know that anything can be fixed, (and will be, if the car is valuable enough), but collectors place a huge premium on dry, straight cars. You have to remember that in Europe, virtually all early 911s disintegrated long ago. Any rust present is a huge turn-off. If you can see a little, there is usually a lot.
You also do not seem to understand the SWB market. Grady's car, especially with its history, is probably quite a bit more valuable than an ordinary 1970 911S as the collector market evolves on these cars. I think that the price on his car will definitely hold, I expected it to go higher.
