Equipment
RHD. Silver painted wire wheels, Avon tires, sliding side windows, Plexiglas hood air deflector, heater, Marchal headlights, painted SF shields.
Condition
Raced when new by Mas-Olle Persson in Sweden, later by Gosta Forsberg and Charles Lohmander. Acquired by Pierre Bardinon in 1972, later part of the infamous Consolidator Collection of Hans Thulin. Very good recent paint, chrome and interior. The underbody has been repainted assembled, and not recently.
Market commentary
Eligible for just about anything a new owner could want, including the Mille Miglia, with ovoid Pinin Farina coachwork, eggcrate grille and air vents that give no doubt at all about its competition purpose. Even at that the reported high bid, just $100K under the low estimate (1.3%), seems reasonable for its presentation and history.
