Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Silver painted wire wheels, Dunlop SP 165SR15 tires, stopwatch mounted on transmission cover, large Lucas driving and fog lights. An older restoration to like new condition with use since. Upgraded to Le Mans specs, not delivered that way. Now getting its own patina. No Reserve.

Market commentary

Wait. Was it clear this car wasnt build to Le Mans specs Apparently not to the buyer, who paid Le Mans spec money for a BN1 with some louvers punched in the hood and a hundred dollar stopwatch mounted on the floor. It made more sense back in 2007 when this car was sold for $55,000 by Christies.
