Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome spoke Borrani wire wheels, blackwall tires, grille-mounted driving lights.

Condition

Raced when new by Anna Maria Peduzzi, then by Jean-Claude Arifon in France. Updated upon restoration in the U.S. in 2001 with a narrow grille and 5-speed gearbox, class second at Pebble Beach in 2002, then re-restored in the present ownership. Gorgeous instrument layout. Excellent paint, chrome and interior. Restored like new with better cosmetics.

Market commentary

Purists will knock this Otto Vu for its narrow, oval grille but it's hard to think it detracts from its appearance, purposefulness or history. It was old in essentially the same condition at Gooding's Pebble Beach auction in 2011 for $1,127,500 and would not have been unfair to the seller at the reported high bid here.
