Many of us here watched the "restoration" of these cars as documented on the American automotive show, "Fast and Loud". Those of us familiar with that particular show cringed through the filmed process knowing that their primary business plan is to "flip" cars as fast as possible for as much profit as possible against fake deadlines. We would have much preferred that these two cars be restored by another firm where minimizing time and expense were NOT their prime motivation.
We can probably guess that the people that pay out for these cars are finding out that the "restorations" were indeed shoddy and they are being passed from from collection to collection like bad pennies.
I believe the $30K price you have seen from 2012 was the price the original owner picked them up for before he sold them to Richard Rawlings from Gas Monkey Garage for the TV show.
