Those Banshee concepts are awesome... foreshadowing the Stingray early C3 Corvette in many ways thanks to the genius of DeLorean.
The main issue I have with the sale is that it claims that this coupe is the only Banshee in existence.... when in reality, Joe Bortz owns the only one with a Pontiac V8 (which is superior to the Chevy unit at that time). Bortz has a few dozen concept cars he saved from the car crusher decades ago by clever negotiations with the junk yard managers
For those that don't know, these were John Delorean's cars that almost came to production- except internal GM affairs prohibited anything that would be faster or compete with the Corvette from existing, and therefore they never made it to life. Shame, because it's really a sharp car. I love that it has the OHC Pontiac six in it too.
Though whomever wrote this auction up is a tad ignorant- both of the Banshee concept cars still exist. Here's the convertible-

curious if Bortz buys it to make a matching pair?
