    yes, I'm aware of it and I think they're dreaming. $495 is similar to Quail at Pebble Beach, which includes superb food and wine. Price for lunch at this Sydney event is $1000 a head. Really, really delusional if they think there are enough people here who care that much about concorso.

    I'll be a Phillip Island that weekend, so won't be paying $495 to see the rare F40/308GTB from QLD :)

    chassis 0806 original car , if you google the chassis number details will come via RM Auctions and Barchetta cc

    Owned from 1972 by Pierre Bardinon and then F Violati . These 2 would not buy an incorrect car .

    Now owned by noted collector P.Harburg

    I admire the quality of the cars on show including the Silver Ghost #68, its just a shame these events show and encourage bling and "Ralphed" cars ,why not some "Dirtbags ? That have never been restored .
