Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Black steering wheel, dual rear spares, mother of pearl instrument panel, dual spotlight mirrors, single driving light, outside exhaust head pipes. Restored to like new condition and now showing some age and use but stil with excellent cosmetics and undeniable presence. Rolf Meyer Collection.

Market commentary

The effect of the dollars swoon against the Euro over the past year is magnified when the numbers get big like this. At January 2002 exchange rates this transaction would have been reported at $731,000. Still expensive for a Cab A, but not inducing hyperventilation.
