This car on BaT looks really nice, but I can only assume it's presently titled as a 2008, and it's a pity the seller doesn't have the details that can easily be found on one of the earlier listings via a link kindly provided above. Vinyl interior? No engine paperwork? No sorting/maintenance since new described? These statements/conclusions are from the present BaT listing/comments.
Those door pockets....are all the CSX6xxx cars like that? I would have to change that immediately.

I agree. No details does hurt the value a bit in my book as does "the
oil drip" from the '64 top oiler 427. It's just me, but if you're paying the big bucks and getting a CSX (or Kirkham or ERA), then a top oiler 427 is a negative. If it were me, the top oiler would be "a throw away" engine (i.e., removed and sold ASAP). The CSX 4787 (blue/white) that sold in December had an NOS side oiler, according to the ad.
Also, the seller/dealer admits to driving around Chicago last December, probably because one of the comments references surface rust and scratches.
I don't think the seller/dealer is going to get their reserve, assuming there is one.
