Market commentary

Formerly in the Richard Solove collection and sold by Gooding at Pebble Beach in 2007 as part of that collections well publicized dispersion for charity. That combined to bring an exceptional result of $1,430,000, to all intents and purposes a million dollars more than it brought here in a transaction that more accurately reflects the cars qualities and origins.
