    Trust me, you wouldn't have wanted that one! Auto with a failed MOT inspection due to rusty sills. Other bodywork issues were showing and the whole car had a 'musty' smell as if it had been kept in a damp garage... A brave person took that one on!

    Man it's a though time in auction land or I am wrong?
    I am somehow surprised that that RHD Daytona didn't sell; 20,000 miles, plexi and only a couple of owners???

    Does somebody perhaps know if the 1956 Ferrari 250GT Berlinetta Prototipo 0435GT that will be auctioned in Gstaad could be a runner for the MM?

    Possibly but by no means guaranteed. The MM is way over subscribed and getting harder to get an entry in. The only cars that are pretty much guaranteed an entry are those that ran in the original.

    Cheers

    Seems like everyone wants to run the MM retro, and it's getting more and more difficult to get an entry accepted unless the specific car you are trying to enter has actual MM history. There are very few cars with actual MM history available, even down to the Fiat based 1100cc and 750cc class cars, and those are commanding $200,000+ !!! I know of an early 1950s Stanguellini 750 barchetta that the owner thinks is worth $500,000!

    I have been following these auction threads for a while and resisted posting until now. It interests me that in these tough economic times people are still looking for what I call boom time prices, yes whilst some cars are historically significant even they are not immune to what going out in the market. Look at how GTO's fell in the early 90's, the same will happen now.

    Sure there are guys out there with money but I think even some of them are looking at consolidating rather than splashing out.

    Just an opinion.

    I think I'll shoot for the BMW Isetta that ran it last year. (Saw it on the Discovery Channel show about the MM).

    theres one for you ! a 1948 cisitalia 202mm spyder nuvolari. kidston tells me i need to buy this to get into the mm ! he is probably right...so anybody who is dying to get in just needs to pony up the $700k for this and presto magico.

    (btw, if you do now buy this, then please consider me as your copilot, not kidding !)

    The RHD Daytona at Coys was from a private collection in Northern UK and had been unused for some time..bodily sound, but in need of mechanical attention,who knows how much that might cost????????

    '79 was an "off" year with an odd nose......but even they are getting hard to find in good condition.....

    They fall into the "we tore them all up, when they were new" catagory....

    But I would like to hear more, about your sister! :D :D :D :D

    Several of us Chatters still have an old WS6 Trans Am around, for sentimental reasons...

    The Lusso bumper is more boomerang looking. This could be the car's own bumper.

    There are some other suspension pieces that are suspect to be unoriginal, but the biggest item will be the complete brake assembly. Aside from the cost, the inventory on the brakes must be getting slimmer. This car may have originally come with the six-vent drums, which are even rarer.
