Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome spoke Borranis, 185SR15 Pirelli blackwall tires, Lucas fog lights. Raced when new by Elliott Forbes Robinson at Palm Springs, Dillingham Field in Hawaii and Santa Barbara. Good older repaint, chrome and upholstery. Orderly but not excessively restored underhood and chassis. A highly presentable touring quality older restoration.

Market commentary

Reported sold at Worldwides Keels & Wheels auction in 2007 for $550,000, then offered at Goodings Pebble Beach auction a few months later but unsold at a reported bid of $480,000. Its not getting any better with age and the seller was wise to take the money offered which is, despite the generous estimate, a reasonable price for a low roof Boano coupe.
