$125,000 Giulietta Monoposto Race Car?
I know they are rare but, are things really worth this much?

I say:
Why not? If Mustangs and Dodges can bring 100 big ones at the BJ auction, why should a Milee ready and eligible Giulietta not be?
I think after having watched a couple of hours of Barrett Jackson, that ALL our Alfas, especially Giuliettas are WAAAAY undervalued.
But I suppose, that's good for you, and me, because we can afford them right now  (except for that racer, I don't have that kind of dough  ) |

If this car is original and not modified, the $125,000 is not outrageous. About 6 or 7 years ago, one of the Bertone bodied Giulietta spider prototypes (the red one) sold for $175,000.
You can find a round tail SZ for that kind of money, but not a long tail SZ. A real and correct TZ is now $300,000 or more!

This was about 10 years ago. I can't think of the guy's name who had it, but it was in the west valley, not more than 5 miles from your dad's shop. The guy is not really an Alfa guy, but has been buying and selling cars for years. I found out about it a day after it had been sold. The nose was bashed in, but the car was 98% complete, and good enough to drive all the way from Ca to Ct!
