Kelly had sold 0462 MD in September 1954 already, to the Jaguar Car Company/Lofty England who disassembled the car completely for inspection and rebuilt it afterwards. This took time till April 1955 when Jaguar sold 0462 MD to Peter Whitehead, who re-sold it to Jack Brabham, who re-sold it to Stan Coffey, all in 1955. Marcel Massini

Hoping someone can assist on some research on the Circuito di Senigallia race August 8, 1954. It appears there were three Ferrari Mondial 500s in this race. One private entry was driven by Bob Said who finished third in 0454, and the two others were factory works entries driven by Sergio Sighinolfi who finished second along with Giulio Musitelli who finished seventh. Question: Does anyone know the SN of either the Sighinolfi car and/or the Musitelli car? And, were there any other Ferraris in the 2 liter class that race?
