#1 Concours
World-class. Could compete in the world’s best Concours d'Elegance events.
Mosier restoration and 1995 CCCA Grand Classic First Prize winner. Sympathetically and carefully restored to beyond perfect condition without going crazy, a brilliant, sophisticated and imposing automobile that needs nothing.
Market commentary
Offered at Barrett-Jackson in 1995 with a reported high bid of $165,000. Sold by Christie's at Pebble Beach in 1995 fresh from restoration for $96,000, then by RM from Bernie Ecclestone's collection in London in 2007 for $250,124 and at Worldwide Auburn in 2010 for $341,000. Its price here, hammered sold at double RM's low estimate, is a remarkable event, but this is a remarkable automobile. No matter how remarkable, however, this is a staggering price.
