BaT Auction Success Story: hipoDunc Rides Off on a Mustang

BaT member macmacma sold his 1995 Acura NSX-T on BaT in November 2016—but as the highest bidder on a 2022 BaT auction, he earned the opportunity to buy his old car back. He recently wrote in with an update covering the last few years:
I sold my NSX on BaT in 2016 and bought it back on the site in 2022. Since then, I’ve put over 12,000 miles on it. I’ve been updating my car’s history files and thought it would be fun to share my experience with the BaT community.

This Success Story comes to us from mak62, who won a 1979 BMW 320i from kcm125 in a September 2025 BaT auction:
I’m thrilled to share my remarkable experience with you all. One evening, while browsing BaT, I stumbled upon a familiar face—this 1979 BMW 320i that I previously owned, but had sold off over three years ago. I first attempted to win this BMW back in March 2020, but it didn’t work out. However, after a few months I was introduced to the owner, and I eventually bought the car.

This Success Story comes to us from Dvredc5, who won this modified 2001 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6 from Flexfitness16 in a November 2025 BaT auction:
I’ve been a BaT member for a couple of years now and have enjoyed every moment of it. I had been seeking an ’80s IROC-Z similar to one I bought new in 1986 and sold in 1990 to help fund my new business. There were very few examples out there, and I never found the right car.

BaT user Corvenza recently sold this 1955 Chevrolet 3100 Cameo on consignment to RiderCoach in an October 2025 BaT auction, and he wrote in with a heartfelt note about his experience connecting the truck with its new owner:
Some vehicles carry more than just chrome and craftsmanship—they carry stories, memories, and moments suspended in time; this 1955 Chevrolet Cameo carried just that. Born during an era when Chevrolet dared to redefine what a truck could be, the Cameo wasn’t made for the field. It was built for the family. It was a statement piece—a blend of elegance and utility meant for the wives and farmhands who ventured into town.

This Success Story comes to us from bamiot, who won this Sunburst Gold F80 M3 from casciomotors in a December 2025 BaT auction:
I had the fortune of winning this 2016 Sunburst Gold Metallic BMW M3, one of just two F80 M3s originally collected via Euro Tourist Delivery.  My younger brother originally built it for a client, who turned and sold it—it’s the second of his BMW builds that I’ve won. In this case, my brother and his shop Parts Score in Scottsdale, Arizona, had previously installed Pure Turbos Stage 2 turbochargers and KW4 coilovers, among other tweaks. The car had been further modified after a subsequent purchase in 2016 by other shops in California, I believe.

BaT member Govehillbill recently wrote in with an update on the 1967 Volvo 122S that he won in April 2025:
I recently purchased a 1967 Volvo 122S on Bring a Trailer. It was an unrestored, low-mileage, original car located in Oregon and had been an one-owner car until 2025. There were lots of pictures, and the seller was helpful answering my questions. Still, buying a vehicle sight unseen across the country was a challenge for me. Things went very smoothly after the auction, and I received the car about a week later.
