Roadsters sold/for sale on ebay

A little different twist to restoration tips:
I see the white 67 (first place low W 1600 this year at solvang) listed on ebay for 27,500 is no longer listed . Looks like it ended without selling. I've seen others 1600's about as nice as this one go for for 11,000 on ebay.
I did see one sell for 40,000 once on ebay (2014), a black 2000 67.5.
Here was the pedigree:
For Sale is my 67.5 Datsun 2000 Roadster. The car is 1808 miles from a complete, nuts/bolts, frame off, restoration. I took it to Solvang, CA a few weeks ago for the 2014 Solvang Datsun Show and won 3rd Place in the low windshield 2000 division. The car is a blast to drive and runs excellent. I have spent the last 2 years building this one to my taste. I chromed what Datsun did not, and built it. I have tons of pix of the car as I was building it, from the freshly media blasted body, all body work hammered/dollied with no filler, ceramic heat/sound deadener, and gloss powder coated frame. All work was performed by myself. Below is a list of highlights of the car. This is the real deal 67 2000, SRL311-000218, with the correct rare items.
Frame:
1. Gloss powdercoated and inside of frame rails treated with Eastwood internal frame coating
2. Competition suspension with vintage Koni shocks front and rear
3. Competition sway bar on front
4. All new ball joints, upper and lower spindle bushings, seals, and rear bushings.
Engine/Transmission:
1. U20 motor bored .040, new pistons, rings, mains, rods, seals, and water pump
2. Aluminum flywheel
3. B-cam and Solex carbs, 44mm.
4. Comp Oil pan
5. Electronic Distributor
6. Rebuilt 5 speed transmission with new bearings and seals.
7. Completely rebuilt rear end with 3.9 Limited Slip Differential. Axle housing gloss powder coated.
8. All bolts were bead blasted and Zinced. New bolts installed in the suspension components.
9. American Racing Equipment 14" LeMans wheels (Magnesium). If you prefer Libre's, Empi's, or OEM I can switch out.
Body:
1. Any rusted areas repaired with new metal (very little needed).
2. Glass bead blasted inside and out (body placed on rotisserie)
3. All body work hand hammered and dollied. Blocked many many times. Only filler is where the original Lead seams were removed.
4. Lizard skin ceramic and sound deadener applied on underside of body tub, inside of of tub, inside of doors, under hood/trunk lid, and inside quarter panels.
5. Eastwood internal rust protection applied inside of inner fender rails, A-pillars, and rockers.
6. Car was painted in pieces and then assembled and resprayed. House of Kolor Jet black, with 4 layers of clear, and cut and buffed out.
7. New Stayfast soft top and boot cover. (top has zippered rear window)
Interior:
1. Rebuilt gauges by Jon Frampton and chromed.
2. New interior. Seats, carpet, panels
3. Chromed trim pieces, handles, cranks, dash trim, and parcel shelf trim.
4. All new weatherstripping, (any thing rubber is new).
5. Almost all items new chrome.
6. Hidden Rosta electronic cruise control (I hide the controls under dash to be stealthy, pull it out when not showing)
Everything works as it did when new. All gauges work and are accurate (speedo matches GPS within 2 mph). One key for ignition and all locks.
