#1 Concours
World-class. Could compete in the world’s best Concours d'Elegance events.
At one time 289 Ford powered, now with an appropriate A6G engine, gearbox and differential. 2008 Villa d''''Este class winner. The paint is far better than new, upholstery and chrome are impeccable. Underbody is painted grey like new. A high quality restoration ready for the concours field.
Market commentary
Frua''''s work on Maserati chassis during the 50''''''''s is exceptional and nowhere better presented than here, a fact seemingly lost on the Quail Lodge bidders. It is a beautiful, balanced, attractively proportioned car that looks every bit as good today as a modern Maserati. It should have brought more and the Quail Lodge bidders missed a chance.
