Equipment
Covered headlights, rollbar, center driving location, Blue painted 8-spoke alloy wheels, Dunlop Racing tires, Red leather rim steering wheel, wraparound Plexiglas windscreen.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Bought new through Jack Brabham by Bill Patterson in Australia with some period success Down Under. Restored and historic raced 2009-15, then accident damaged and a new body made and returned to the track. Good paint on the new bodywork but the rest is aged and used although race-ready as it was track used a year ago.
Market commentary
Offered by Bonhams at Quail Lodge last August where it was reported bid to $150,000. Consigned here with an appropriately-adjusted pre-sale estimate of $125,000-$150,000 it again failed to meet reserve. It's not like the market has fallen away from it in five months, but that the right bidders weren't here to get excited by it.
