Equipment
Maranello Rosso Collection.
Condition
#4 Fair
Has visible flaws to the naked eye. Runs fine, but could use mechanical or cosmetic attention.
Ex-Fabrizio Violati, Maurizio Flammini, Duilio Truffo, Marco Micangeli 1981 and 1984 Le Mans 24-Hours race, first in class at the Monza 1000km in 1981 but with no further exceptional results. Built for Violati on a factory BB/LM chassis to WEC specs. Appears to have sat since 1985 without even a repaint. Dirty and overlooked.
Market commentary
An intriguing but ultimately unsuccessful car, like most of its sibling BB/LMs, this is a car with more potential in historic racing than in its early life and it realized that potential in the price it brought here. It balances the two Le Mans appearances and the entre they open with its aged and neglected condition. This is a car that needs everything, but the same could be said of pretty much any BB/LM that hasn't been raced in a few years. This result, despite the generous estimate range, should be seen as all the money for this BB/LM's condiition.
