Heck yeah!

That’s relatively local to me and is the bargain of a lifetime. If I had the money it would be mine… Neil runs a business called Rallyprep.

Not so much of a bargain but the real deal...

Oooffff

Lot 126 at the Monaco Historique was Denzel DK28. Wearing a Porsche badge for her first race 1 month after registration I wonder if she was originally fitted with a 356 engine; anyone able to advise if Jim Perrin’s book confirms? Sold for €95k / €109k, well short of the €314k DK32 made in 2019

Meanwhile over in Costa Mesa 84382 passed at $200k. Prior to her SCCA career, the Speedster is said to have been traded into Bob Holbert’s Garage and driven by Bob’s son Al to high school and then Lehigh University (while studying Mechanical Engineering Al worked for Roger Penske). Bob took 84382 back after she developed an engine knock & Al had racked up too many speeding tickets
