MOTOR CARS | 65Both vent window opening devices have been broken off and were
found in the car’s glove box. The odometer reading as delivered to
Bonhams is lower than its October 1971 listed reading, inferring that
the instrument has been replaced at some time. Its latest reading is
11,598kms. The centre section of both seats is in red cloth instead
of the original black Connolly hide specified by factory production
records. All the rubber trimmings and panel-edging seals around the
car require replacement. All the car’s wheels are correct, including
the spare.
This Daytona appears to have great potential for relatively simple and
economic refurbishment to first-class order, while plainly showing
the effects of its exceptionally long life as a static Museum exhibit. It
plainly has the extra cachet for any future owner of having been ‘the’
road-going Maranello Rosso Collection Daytona, while the stature
and desirability of the model itself is beyond question.
Please note this vehicle is subject to import tax should it remain in
the EU.
