Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Painted wire wheels, driving lights, glass quail radiator mascot, triple carbs, folding windshield. Restored some time ago with replica coachwork based on an actual Figoni & Falaschi. Done to a very high standard and still very attractive but showing its age after a very long period of being ignored in the Rosso et Bianco collection.

Market commentary

Reported sold for $162,874 (+101,750) by Coys at Chiswick House in May 1998. Its had nothing done to it since and looks like it. The bidders artfully balanced the markets growth and the cars decline to reach a delicate balance at this price, just +1,250 more than it brought ten years ago.
