Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Origilly owned by the Reichs Ambassador to England, von Ribbentrop. Concours older restoration by Tom Barrett, still in exceptiol condition; almost no cracks in the paint and very fine by any standard.

Market commentary

An air bid. There was no money on the car, recalling the days at B J when Toms inventory traipsed across the block in Prime Time to a resounding dearth of bidders paddles. One should regard $170,000 as the sellers asking price.
