    Hopefully there is some news about the fascinating remains of this car sold by Bonhams 4/26/04. It was listed as 0604 but is believed to be o640. In the right hands this should be a most interesting resurection. tongascrew

    I would be very curios to know as well, I was at the auction and was one of the underbidders on the TR. At the time I thought it went for crazy money as did the Monza that was there, but by todays standards it was a bargain. Bonhams did some very strange things with the lots and actually packaged parts belonging to the cars in seperate lots. There were some amazing parts lots at that auction as well, I have not seen anything like it since.

    I have the Bonhams auction catalogue in front of me, and it was listed correctly by Bonhams as chassis no. 0640 MD/TR and engine no. 0706MD/TR. Even a photo of the chassis number stamping was printed in the catalogue!!

    So nothing to do with the well-known 860 Monza s/n 0604 M.

    But I'm also very interested to know that actually happened with 0640 MDTR.

    Best regards

    Kevin

    Glad to hear there is interest in this one. How could there not be.My thought when reviewing this file was what it would be like to have bought this and then taken the time and expense to bring it back to what it looked like when it came out the factory. And please, not just another over restoration!! Ahhh what dreams we mortals do have. Well let's see what come of this thread. Let's hope we get some good news. This s/n deserves it. tongascrew
