Anyone care to venture a guess at the hammer price?

With that provenance, I'm guessing over $5M.

Interestingly, it appears that it was up for auction at Amelia Island in 2019 with an older white paint job and failed to sell. Estimate at that time was $3M - $4M.

How Cool Is That?

Other than being out of my price range, I'd be afraid to drive this thing. It belongs in a museum. I'd be afraid to scratch, dent or crash it. I'm with GoDad here - I want to drive my car as much as I can. Other than that, this thing is really cool!
