Market commentary
It looked like the brass era fans stayed home. This was a great car with desirable open bodywork and wonderful patina that simply didnt hit its marks. Bonhams sold this exact car from the Frank Cooke collection in 2006 for $161,000 but it wasnt meant to be at Scottsdale. The seller was smart to wait.
