    I believe that Mecum has the Letterman collection coming up at Monterey.
    On their website, it has 400 SA, 500 Superfast, etc.

    Perhaps some of the more experienced can comment on this rumor??

    I can promise you that, as Lex Luthor says in SUPERMAN (1978) "Stocks may rise and fall, transportation and utility systems may collapse, people are no damn good", but that your supposition of Leno buying ex-Letterman Ferraris will never, ever, ever happen. :p

    And now he lives in a place where he could really drive them. No Francois Sicard there to look after them, though….

    Wasn't there also a 166 Inter Touring coupe in his collection? Something close to a metallic bronze color?

    “Chassis No. 8157, 1 of 80 Built with Aluminum Long-Nose Coachwork by Scaglietti”

    That nose came out of Scaglietti? Interesting…

    David Letterman owned a Gaillo Fly 275 GTB long nose. Some years ago my son and I were driving south on 684 headed for the US Open when suddenly we saw David driving his GTB north on 684. This event turned out to be more exciting than the tennis!

    US friends, why Mecum and not an 'international' firm like RM, Bonhams, Broad Arrow or Gooding? Euro folk won't go there and cannot understand the auctioneer. Has DM bought the cars?
