Equipment
Dry sump, gear-driven camshafts engine, 1,985/170hp, triple Weber40 DCO3 carbs, 4-speed, chrome spoke Borranis, Marchal headlights and fog lights
Condition
An older restoration to like new condition with a color reversal from the original Banana with Black stripe. Engine 2050, an A6G/54 number. Very rare 'Short Body' styling, probably one of two built. The instruments and dash show some age. Engine is dry sump with magneto and coil ignition. Still in nearly better than showroom condition.
Market commentary
Sold by Bonhams at Quail Lodge in 2002 where I fell copiously in love with it. Today it is in similar condition, with 326 more km on the odometer, a quality old restoration that is holding up better than it has any reason to. The result is almost 10x in 16 years but it is a marvelous, fast, beautiful car. Can't help it: I'm still in love.
