Greg Nelson had it up at his Mopar Ponderosa for a while before he sent it to the January 2014 Russo and Steele auction in Scottsdale and that must be where The Brothers got it from.

Thank Tom, found it sold for $316,930 which seems like a decent price.  https://russoandsteele.com/vehicle-details/?show_vehicle=75102&current_index=0&total_results=7&auction_pk=102&=&caryear=&caryearto=&search_text=&page=&showpage=1
