The theory I have for those who buy up multiples (more then 2), is that for these cars to become more sort after and increase in value is for more people to own them. If certain people buy up every example, then they are actually decreasing the number of people owning them, and thus decreasing their value (it's just a theory?).
The best way to increase value is to make the best example of whatever you have and encourage others to do the same. That way (if the encouragement works), lots of people will be restoring them. Then there are more people looking for the same number of parts and cars.Thus driving part and car prices up.
It's a simple theory called supply and demand.
And Paul, Good luck with the sale, it looks like a great example for someone looking for a project to restore.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?
