Even if it's not really "that" car (chain of custody makes it likely to be a real Stavola car, but without their internal paperwork it's impossible to determine whether or not it's really "that" car or even a chassis Bobby Allison actually drove) it's still a great price for a fun track car with history.

Several Stavola Racing Buicks found new homes on the Winston West circuit, having been sold to Curt Culver, ( maybe owned by John Keiper ? ) John Krebs & Jack Sellers. I also recall seeing a GM - bodied car with a SABCO Racing NUMERO UNO plaque on the right side dashboard, at a Monroe, WA., WW event.
The Scotts Valley, CA., address is of interest; I recall Bruce Canepa was from this area. Also, NASCAR Winston West had a business office in that area for quite a few years.

Bruce Canepa's company, Canepa Designs, is in Scotts Valley. He has a business selling collector cars and old racing cars, that's where this Stavola Buick was no doubt sold from:

He also has a museum of cars that he's bought and held onto, which includes the ex-Darlington Museum/Cotton Owens #6 Dodge Daytona, the #43 Petty Torino that is claimed to have won Riverside, and a couple of Gulf-Porsche 917s:

There has been some dispute, including on this board, about the accuracy of the ex-NASCAR cars' histories.

FWIW the #6 Daytona and the Petty Torino are demonstrably misrepresented.
