The SPF GT40 sold for $64,000 plus the commission or about $70,000. Also, it was a MKII, which tend to be less desirable than a MKI IMHO.

One theory being postulated is that continuation series cars and replicas of any kind tend to do poorly at auction especially when the Monterey auctions where they don't get top billing because of all the expensive original period cars.
