I was told by Cars International (who were offering the car for sale shortly after the RM Battersea auction for somewhere in the region of £400,000) that they had sold the car to Belgium, I guess that sale fell through.... Paul
Hi, Do you have some chassis numbers corresponding to: B397JPG FDC600 B745CGC B150NPK A288GTO B517NDL B221SFA, is it 52737 or 56193?
I know B 517 NDL is the ex-Charlie Church car, 55687 (originally registered CC 1). Checking now, I see that B 150 NPK is 55717. I have 52737 as currently bearing 700 RPM. I have 56193 as currently bearing 288.GTO (Belgium). Others can be more concise than I on the remainder...
I've just seen this one to be sold in Switzerland, not sure if it's on your list, btw looks like the car is from France.. http://www.autoscout24.ch/AS24Web/Detail.aspx?from=list&wl=1&lng=fra&id=5838599&qs=from%3dDefault%26make%3d27%26modellike%3d288%26cur%3dCHF%26zipcountry%3dCH%26total%3d1%26eftotal%3d1&page=1&row=1 7'000KM but at 650KUSD!!
This'll make the chassis number experts dig deep. Texas-registered K 77 CSR. Anyone? Image Unavailable, Please Login
The correct chassis number is actually ZFFPA16B000055713 and it is now owned by Bob L. It came back from Japan into the USA in 2002 and it went to George at GNK in Orange County, www.gnkauto.com (714)545 9503, 2530 S.Birch Street, Santa Ana, California 92707 for DOT/EPA. As a result side markers and the reinforced front bumper have been fitted. As a result of its life and the way it was stored in Japan, the engine was completely rebuilt with almost every mechanical component within the car restored. The interior was left alone. Road wheels were refurbished and the frontal paintwork was redone as needed. A stainless steel exhaust system in standard quad-pipe configuration was fitted. Bob has detailed images of all the work done. Since then he has shown the car at Concorso Italiano and participated in a Colorado Rally, and the car seems to have done well. The car comes with the single-piece Schedoni fitted luggage, all manuals (owners, warranty, injection, gearbox), all sales brochures, and a plethora of period publications & literature etc. He is asking $650,000.
