Title: Another B20 for restoration Post by: DavidLaver on 06 May, 2009, 10:45:52 PM http://www.coys.co.uk/auctions/lot.php?auction=88&id=56296
While they don't exactly grow on trees the supply of projects has yet to dry up. Also a B12 http://www.coys.co.uk/auctions/lot.php?auction=88&id=56269 ...and anyone else like these? Not sure if its the car or the photography but not quite the same pull as usual from this one in particular, but I really love them in general. http://www.coys.co.uk/auctions/lot.php?auction=88&id=56279 David Title: Re: Another B20 for restoration Post by: fay66 on 07 May, 2009, 08:11:01 AM [quote author=DavidLaver.

In the metal they make Bugattis look like trucks.

The engine was in bits with pieces missing at H&H, but now the discription only says 'in running order' so there is sure to be lots more to do, sounds like it has just been cobbled together! The fact that it has come back to the market rather suggests that the buyer realised there was far more to do than they first thought.
Title: Re: Another B20 for restoration Post by: Sliding Pillar on 17 June, 2009, 06:53:37 PM The B12 sold at Coys Monaco for 7666euro. In the same sale their top price was 281,500 for a B24 Spyder beating a Lamborghini Miura!
