Market commentary
Sold by Artcurial in Retromobile in 2014 for $993,728. Then hammered not sold at Mecum Monterey last year at a high bid of $850,000 and again at Mecum Dallas last year at a high bid of $860,000. Repeated auction trips chasing a few more dollars often do not turn out the way the consignor hopes, but sometimes persistence is rewarded. In this case, the car finally sold for a strong result and was the highest sale of the week.
