Market commentary
It is safe to say that this is the most auctioned GT40 in recent years. RM peddled it for two years, then it showed up here at B J last year with 13,062 miles. Last sold at Christies PB in 97 for $310,500 and 11,410 miles. Its probably been the change in several deals since and deserves to find a good and long term home which it apparently did here, purchased by the Petersen Museum although why is something of a mystery.
