 I am guessing the seller knew what they had and didn't accept any low ball offers. smiley

 

I am curious. Was this William Lyon's personal car or some other celebrity involved? Was it a group 44 racer? Tell us more.

 Sold at auction. 1979 model. Not a celebrity car. And it was burned up once in a fire .  Not original color. And a lot of originality is gone.  Relatively low miles and has been hot rodded  with 2 turbo's and non-original ECM

Link to a story about the car and sale (at least I think that's the car FrenchyD is talking about).

In reply to Schmidlap :

Oops Sorry it's Australian dollars  not British pounds 

So instead of $324,000 it's $317,425

No problem, it's an impressive car regardless!
