Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. 11.5 liter straight six Leyland turbo diesel, 5 speed automatic, dual rear axles, overhead two car rack with ramps and elevator, one car lower rack with ramps, enclosed storage work area, original storage crates, vintage drivers suits. A massive vehicle with an equally massive history. Built for Maseratis race team, sold to Lance Reventlow, then Carroll Shelby, David Piper, Alan Mann, and Lotus before being used in Steve McQueens Le Mans. Fantastic condition following a comprehensive restoration. Impeccable paint, interior and mechanicals. Wearing Cobra livery and ready to be the center of attention everywhere.

Market commentary

New race car trailers regularly cost $300,000+ and thats without a tractor to pull them or vintage race worn firesuits in the closet. Throw in the cost of a tractor and this Bartolleti starts to make good financial sense. At least that what we told our wives. Truth be told its a lot of money for a vehicle that will require more care than a modern transport vehicle and a massive amount of indoor storage space. Who cares. Nothing could be cooler than this with three Cobras on its back.
