Hmm.... Sounds like pocket change. :eek:

That's the first time I've noticed the fuel supply to webers done like that.
Looks cool but would make it a pain to get to the distributor.%/

$800000 to $950000 seems a little low . Whats the catch?

I absolutely love this car. My goal is to replicate this car with my build in every detail, within my budget.

Why do you say that? CSX3259 sold at RM Auctions Scottsdale in Jan 2011 for $585,000 plus buyer's premium.

In the past three years, this car has been for sale through Fantasy Junction, a Bonhams auction, an RM auction, Copley Motorcars, and now RM once again. I hope it finally finds a good home.

Goodness Gracious... that car is sweet. What do we know about the Webs... is that a later addition? Do a lot of original cars fancy that set up? I am not very knowledgeable on Originality issues, but I have not seen that very often. It's certainly a ni$$$$e set up, and I think it looks amazing, but I guess I like a single or double carb set up the best for an original car. Of course, to each its own, and I could never afford a car like this:)

Yes it's been through a few changes of hands in the last couple.
It is a beauty, I hope like Ned says someone wants to really love it instead of just pushing values around.

The car's serial number indicates that it was a street car. It has been modified to look like a S/C model by removing the glove box, adding sidepipes, rollbar, quick jacks, oil cooler, competition fuel filler, Halibrand wheels, etc.
