    Looks like Piero Drogo rebody of #1717GT (250 PF Coupe), or a copy of it.

    See link here.

    I don’t believe so. If you go to the page and view the story, it looks like RW is moving a lot of his cars from one storage location to another.

    Yes. I saw it in the paddock at the Spa historic races may 2017 partly covered by a tarp, having spun on the Friday in the rain and very slightly hit one front corner and the opposite rear corner.

    A few days later I was visiting Bachelli & Villa near Modena...and there it was again being fixed! No time wasted.

    In my humble view the ultimate beauty in terms of front engined Maranello Berlinettas, I always preferred it to the 62-63 body shape and this one as the very last built is really iconic.
    It was very special to see it at Chantilly 2017.

    As a young teen on a birthday in Paris looong ago(!) I chose two John Day 1/43 white metal kits in a store: the Breadvan -which is the third car in line in the first photo- and this:).

    Interesting, that's where the Alfa B.A.T. cars went.

    I had wondered that as well. I appreciate that they are still together.

    Am I mistaken or was there only one bid placed in the auction? BTW the GT-40 is the most valuable Ford in the world, #1075.

    I believe the 3 cars were sold as a single lot, at the insistence of the seller who wanted them kept together. I do remember hearing that several seperate buyers were interested in purchasing a single car, but they couldn't be broken apart. It would take a special buyer - ala RW - to take them down as a package.

    It can be so hard to tell sometimes, whether there's really a bidding frenzy, or it's just Mr. Chandelier ;) In the case of the Alfas, I don't recall...

    Edit - I wonder what the GT40 would be worth today?

    Some real gems in this film. Footage is from Sebring 1962.

    250 GTO #3387 GT, the 250 GTO's race debut, in link here.

    250 GT LWB California Spider in link here which leads into the 250 TR footage.

    Which Ferrari is that getting split in half and utterly destroyed against the pedestrian pit straight bridge at 11 minutes 2 seconds? I don't see reference to a crashed Ferrari with a driver named Hawkins in 57 or 62 so wrong name or footage from yet another year...
    Miraculous escape...

    Edit: seems it is 0730? If so wrong driver name, they were Chester Flynn and ED Martin not Hawkins.

    Pretty cool to see the BAT cars on the road, even if only driven a short distance between warehouses.

    No, the chassis is 250 GT Ellena/Boano. All the LWB 250 GT chassis (tipo 508) were very similar with only minor differences between the 250 GT Ellena/Boano, 250 GT Competizione TdF, 250 GT PF Coupe, 250 GT PF Cabriolet, 250 GT LWB California Spyder. A 250 California style body is going on this chassis. See link here. The disc brakes are incorrect though. Should be drums.

    The 512 is a replica and the other car is a 250 GT PF Coupe #1351GT with a Boano body fitted to it which is said to be from #0517 GT.

    According to the caption in the article it’s a 1973 308GT4 (yes, I know it doesn’t belong in the vintage forum). Does anyone know the chassis number? If it’s a ‘73 it should have a Dino nose badge unless it was replaced.
