About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Raced by Oscar Koveleski in the 1969 Can Am, tub replaced after an accident (and now used in a different M6B with the same chassis number). Cliff Apel raced it to little effect in Can Am in 1970-71, then reacquired by Koveleski and raced in USRRC. Checkered later history but lately successful driven by Jim Pace. Good paint, otherwise a clean, sharp well-maintained race car with professional maintenance.

Market commentary

Like many of my contemporaries I did my part to patronize Oscar Koveleski's "auto world" and support Polish Racing Drivers with my orders for car models. This is a real Can Am car with the best (at the time) powertrain and brought a modest price that puts the Bizzarrini P538 offered a few lots earlier in perspective as egregiously expensive for a re-created race car with no history. This is a solid value.
