Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Alloy body, dry sump engine with six 40DCN Webers, outside ribbed competition gearbox. Carefully constructed to be very close in appearance and function to a real GTO. Nicely presented throughout.

Market commentary

Bought for $155,764 (220,000 CHF, which would be US$134,000 at todays exchange rate) at Brooks 1999 Gstaad auction. At a 10% sellers commission the net cost of two years showing off in CHF is about $27,000, much less than it would appear from comparing the dollar equivalents due to the substantial strengthening of the US$. It doesnt exactly signal an ebullient market, but neither is it in precipitous decline.
