Market commentary
Holey Moley! Just when we thought the 300C was a price guide ripper comes the 300F and blows it, at least in relative terms, into the weeds with this result. RM sold it here in Arizona in 2001 from Vince Granatelli's collection for what was at the time a notable price balanced by its better-then-new restoration: $88,000. It showed up last May at Mecum's Indianapolis auction and changed hands for $291,500 before setting this new benchmark result. It is still better-than-new but this is a huge price.
