Artcurial: Anyone know what the 250 Cab series II went for at Artcurial? The Vignale Ferrari?
The wonderful Fiat V8? Artcurial seems to have a problem with people who want to follow their auction online (connection to their server does not work).

 

Thank you

 

How nice to see two of my children there, 0438 and 0716, sadly both derelicts when in my custody, but happily brought back to original (define original!). Thanks for posting all that info on 0716; fascinating stuff.

 

I saw 0716 just some hours ago at Fiskens stand and I'm still very impressed. Even better than Ralph Lauren TestaRossa, which I think is over-restored.

 

Same restorer as 0704

 

Difficult to interpret auctioneer language in France but my understanding is that the Otto Vu did not sell and stalled around 550-600 ish depending which chandelier you were looking at.
Cab sold at around million USD all in, from memory.
They manage to extend the sale on second day,,as I left at midnight and still there where 30 lots to go. Feel sorry for those entering the last lots!
Can't remember Vignale Ferrari? Which one?

 

Meh, still drives like 058. Which is to say - like a truck though less rewarding.

 

How much was the Maserati A6G?

 

High bid €400, not sold, owner happy, thought he could mis his car, got double feelings letting the car go, so was happy with the result.

 

Mr Baeumer- what did you think of that car? For some reasons the colors bothered me- but else I thought the car was absolutely stunning. The open gearshift gate the insturments inside the front of the car- it was very very nice. I regret now not bidding for the Jay Kay car last year at Gooding which went for a fair price. I am falling more with Maserati especially the a6g2000 line..! Not to speak of the A6G54 which is my dream!

 

Same as last year.......It was nearly 2.am when the last lot was offered......The problem in France is that by law an auction is a public event and anyone can attend. Last year there must have been 1500 people in the room and most had bought their picnic with them......that and M.Poulin the auctioneer liking the sound of his own voice and his little jokes....It goes on forever. They try to drive some of the cars on to the stage greeted with huge cheers if they are able to start them....... Its a cheap night out for bored Parisians. Why they dont start earlier is a mystery...... Not knocking them as they are great to do business with but you have to be VERY patient ! I notice their website is down this morning so no results published yet at 11.am UK time.

The car (#2147, ex-2144) at ARTCURIAL was a very nice car, although with non-matching-no. engine!
The resto was great and shows much attention to detail.
Well, the two-tone paint is not for everybody`s taste, but this was the original specification.

Anybody know the auction results of the Daytona and the 330 GTC?

 

The 365 GTB/4 sold for € 258,000 hammer, so € 307,370.88 all-in. Apparently it needs the mother of all restorations.

Have you seen the car in detail? Could you describe it? Thank you.

 

Many thanks!
