Title: 429SCJ Torino pulled $47,000. Was it SOLD for more because of "side-oiler"?

more value?
------Description--------

Lot #1571 - Quote from description:  "This is the real deal. It's equipped with a 429SCJ, Super Cobra Jet with Ram Air 375hp engine. It was ordered with Factory Drag Pack, 3.91 gears and SIDE OILER."

I hate to think the new owner's going to be telling someone soon about the 429SCJ SIDE OILER in his newly purchased TORINO

Not sure what's worse. Unknowing people selling it as that. Or someone buying it...

I have heard a few people say something was a side oiler simply because it has the oil filter adapter set up with an oil cooler. They will argue to no end about it to.

everybody knows you if you put oil into the engine through the valve cover, it is a side oiler & if you put it in through the intake, it is a top oiler.
