Equipment

Rudge wheels, fitted luggage. The eighth of 29 alloy bodied Gullwings. Three owners. Meticulously restored to concours condition and flawless.

Market commentary

It is what it is: a rare and brilliant Gullwing, brilliantly restored for which a massive price was paid. Put in perspective, this is enough to buy a very, very good Ferrari 250 GT TdF or SWB, cars that were, in their day, comparable in performance and image.
