Can't win with you guys...
First we whine about how Sal didn't ask enough, and how IIs are underappreciated, then we whine because a guy with a nice looking car wants $15K on a buy-it-now.
Would I pay $15K for it, no...but then I can't see paying $15K for
any II.
As far as an apprasial goes...it depends on who is doing it as to the validity. My father-in-law's white/red Cobra clone has a written apprasial from a local Ford dealer for $10K, but I think you'd be hard pressed to get it. I dang near choked when I saw it (especially since I built it ,including purchase, for less than $2500).
The seller would get an idea of the true worth at auction end, but I think he's hurt bidder interest with a B-I-N that high. A lot of people are going to assume that the reserve is close to the B-I-N.
Remember, a Cobra II sold for $15 large about 2 years ago on ebay. The same car that recently failed to sell, I believe.
Remember, if you're gonna dream, dream BIG!
