Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Long nose, open driveshaft, alloy body, tool roll, chrome spoke Borrani wire wheels. Good older repaint with overspray in the wheel wells, aged and oily chassis, clean and orderly engine compartment maintained to good driver condition with some oil mist and road grime. Attractive specifications, but iffy presentation.

Market commentary

Offered at Pebble Beach by Gooding & Company in 2010 where the reported high bid was $900,000, just under the $950,000 low estimate. A similar performance here, reportedly bid within spitting distance of the low estimate, suggests that the seller isnt serious about seeing this 275 GTB move on, or that the bidders arent really coming this close either at Pebble Beach or here. This car should have sold if there was real money at the high bid.
