It was a charity car sale so the price is meaningless. It's a tax writeoff and bragging rights I guess. That's why it's tough to look at the sale prices afterwards if you don't know the story behind the car on the auction block. Supposedly the first 55 T-Bird was auctioned off for $600K again in some form of charity or donation, but it was serial # 005 and apparently # 004 is out there.

i saw that part and that is true. but like you say it's just a write off for these people who can afford these cars.

From what I'm hearing that documentation they have pre-dates the finding of #4.
