Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

No Reserve. Barn car, as it was put away 30 years ago when its John von Neuman Richie Ginther racing career was over. Crunched fenders, truncated tail, original Goodyear Blue Streaks, oxidized aluminum, dead paint. Looks like a rat, but it RAN.

Market commentary

Wrong engine but great history and recent strength in the (excellent) 4 cylinder Ferrari racers helped fetch a strong price to a U.S. buyer. Mechanically restored with all its battle scars showing it would be a knockout. I d swear this car was acknowledged there as bought by Roger Willbanks, but subsequent reports say Stan Zagorski
