Enlightening, especially the closing comments on the Hollywood connection.
Nevermind. I see someone else already posted this video.

Most likely cause the son was not a car nut and didn't know the true value of what he had until most of the deterioration was already in place. Going by my own experience, my kids could care less about any of our classic cars, to them it's just another vehicle, they are not car nuts. frustrates me at times, but then I need to do a reset and remember that my passion for vehicles is not everyone's passion.
Heck, I cringe even seeing a really nice new camaro, mustang, challenger, vette, porsche, etc. that is all grimy and dirty and you can clearly tell to the owner it's just a vehicle. There are times I find myself wanting to ask them if I can clean it for them.

Most likely you’re correct. It honestly doesn’t take much to deteriorate a vehicle. The elements,improper maintenance, and just plain old sitting can wreak havoc internally and externally. The Ghost was actually garage kept, could you imagine if it hadn’t been? I’m still surprised seeing how many people buy very expensive cars and do not have a garage.Most likely cause the son was not a car nut and didn't know the true value of what he had until most of the deterioration was already in place.

OK, $120K for the car and $865K for the BS
.
Just goes to show, if you come up with a good story and have the lineage to back it up it becomes worth a pretty penny. Me personally, I ain't spending $975K for any vehicle, the only vehicle I think I would ever spend $120K-$150K on would be a 63 Split Window Corvette and that would be a hard pill to swallow.OK, $120K for the car and $865K for the BS
Value is really what a person will pay for it.
