One of 10 built for the North American Racing Team sold at RM Monterrey for $27.5 Million setting a new world record for a non-race car sold at auction.
Pre-Auction estimates were that the car would sell for more than $14 million. This last Sundays sale at nearly twice the estimated sales price was welcomed by the Estate of Eddie “George” Smith, the late founder a successful mail-order business in Lexington, N.C. Smith picked up his chassis 10709 at the factory in Maranello, and it's been in his family up to Sundays RM auction.
