The horribly over-written auction copy describes Lancia as 'Etceterini'. Yuk.

Worked on the day of the auction though.

Fascinating racing footage. Btw a B24S Convertible sold at Goodings last week for $429,000.

Quite excellent! Bristol, Allard, Healey, Lotus and more. I thought the Aurelia a bit tail happy but possibly that is the driving style. It certainly didn't have trouble passing the C Type on a bend.

Surfing on from that magnificent link I found this brilliant footage of Fangio in the D50.
