Doug, You may be a bit harsh. Only a handfull of DeTomaso cars have a clear ownership history and the registries have limited info on past owners. (FWIW I have contacted the last 6 owners of my car, but did not manage to get any info from them) I don't know the owner of this car, and I am also intrigued at some of the things on this car. Obviously had someone like SteveL or MikeD or Dana inpected it we would know more, but that isn't the case, and the owner does not appear to be a regular here at this forum. I personnally would love to spend just an hour to inspect and uncover a few things. The car may have been returned to the factory to upgrade to the later style headlamps (just as LP400 periscopo owners got the factory to retrofit the new style roof or it may have been done here, who knows until you inspect it.)
Ebay is a strange medium but it is also where you can find rare items anywhere on the planet. The seller can start the auction at 1$ (no listing fee) let the auction work his way up from there and hope he gets a descent price, or he can list it BuyItNow at 100K (pay $125) and take the best offer from there; a local buyer at 25k might be a better sell less trouble than an overseas one at 30K. But who knows how hard someone wants a the car. Some guy might have skills to rebuild it in his own garage for less than those clean looking ones or build a 'hotroad' or a racer... if you don't want don't bid, different strokes. Just sayin.

my 2 cents
