Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome spoke Borranis, driving lights in grille, 250 GTE style instruments, P W, leather covered instrument panel, flush outside door panels, covered headlights similar to a Cal Spyder added after accident repair. Steel body. Michel Lepeltier collection since 1973, stored since Lepeltiers death in 1990, neglected and dirty. Thick old repaint.

Market commentary

This cars story and unusual (if not original) appearance confer a modicum of value to offset its neglected condition. The price realized is reasonable in CHF but inflated in US$ by the current weak exchange rate which a year ago would have been something like $715K, a much more appropriate representation of its relative value.
