\"MASK SERIES 99-A-2\"
Bonhams lot#172, Monte Carlo, MCO, 5/20/06

First supplied to Turin-based Scuderia Subalpina, who ran it in the 1935 Mille Miglia. Likely to have gained the current 1500-cc motor for the 1938 race. Uniquely rebodied without cycle fenders and with a wider body before 1969, when Briggs Cunningham acquired it. Restored at some time, then static in the Rosso Bianco Collection for years; full re-commissioning is required. Various paint marks, drab interior, and disappointing engine bay presentation.

Despite its completely changed appearance, the car’s long-ago race history is sufficiently gilt-edged to justify the bid, a figure at least one other person was also nearly prepared to match on sale day. Will the new owner leave this car as it is today… or want to be a time traveller and re-enact its 1935 Mille Miglia appearance as recorded in period race photos? Either way, more money is due to make it go properly.

1965 Tipo 65 Prototype sold for $764,188 at Bonhams in 2006 ( lot #214, Gstaad, CHE )

Coachwork by Drogo. Thought to be the first and only such T65 built for the 1965 Le Mans, when it crashed at the hands of Jo Siffert during lap 2. Different nose, twin headlamps, additional air-scoops to front and rear fitted in 1968. Accquired by Kaus in 1978, color changed at some time. Paint marked, cockpit only fair. Engine impressive, with four ignition coils, two distributors, and four oil coolers.
