Equipment
Chrome spoke Borranis. Good paint, chrome and interior but aged and neglected chassis. Rusty exhaust system. Restored in the late 90s by Legendary Motorcar Company for a Speedvision (as it was then known) production, then bought by Skip Barber who had the engine rebuilt and the chassis professionally tuned and set up.
Market commentary
Consignment 4097. Bought for $341,682 at RMs Toronto auction in 1999 fresh from its restoration, then $918,500 ($835,000 hammer) at RMs Arizona auction in January of this year. No wonder the consignor wasnt prepared to accept the high bid here although at $40,000 more than its successful bid just 7 months ago it would seem to be appropriately priced.
