    0850 was never a P3.

    only two cars have been originally built as 412P - 0850 and 0854.

    Great question. I don't think one can attribute a "market" price for items like this. The range is quite wide from several hundreds to a few thousand dollars. It is not really a "market" decision but an individual decision: when one becomes available for sale it's first and foremost a question of how much (how little?) is the seller willing to accept, and obviously, also a question of how much a buyer (or several buyers, if in an auction environment) is willing so part with...

    Looks like Laguna Seca.

    Maybe Chris Cord sitting outside the car?

    Perhaps this is instead a photo of 0854, taken during the time of Jarold Evans' ownership?

    When owned by Jarold Evans, #0854 was a spyder.

    It must be #0850. Perhaps that's PPP behind the wheel?

    Otto? I don't think so. Otherwise, you're spot on, Chuck.

    Does Mr Yeaggy own a 250 GTO? I know he owns a TR, F40/F50/Enzo but i thought he owned a GTO as well? Or is it someone else from OH?

    No he does not.
    You're thinking of his fellow Cincinnati collector, Jim Jaeger, who is the long term owner of 3765 LM.

    IIRC Harry Yeaggy was in Vintage Motorsport mag back in the mid 2000s and the stills showed a GTO (3387GT?). I believe Yeaggy didn't own the car but was instead acting as an agent for its sale.

    Your link to the Lindner is 100% correct. In fact, 0850's current Cincinatti-based owner first came into contact with 0850 as a very young man when he used to wash it for Mr. Lindner!

    I meant to say your link to the Carl H. Lindner FAMILY is 100% correct.

    Like Steve M. (Krasnavian) I well remember when Lee Brown (aka Brownie) was working on this lovely car. Yes, he changed many things, but in those days originality wasn't the end-all that it is today. Brownie had a working relationship with the local dealer, Hollywood Sport Cars, as their "official" body shop, so he often had interesting cars in for repairs. It was Brownie who made an agreement with a mechanic at HSC to swap a paint job for some mechanical work. After finishing the paint, he tried to get the mechanic to do his work, and was met with, "I'm too busy; what are you gonna do?" What Brownie did was pour paint remover on the mechanic's car! Now back to...
