This is INSANE!

Look at the price paid for the 6c2300B SEDAN with REPLICA spider body that someone paid at the Ponder auction!

Seems fair to me. Things like that I am sure are hard to put any kind of price on.

You can find a real 6c2300B MM or a 6c2500SS with actual race history for less than half that!

From Bill Noon at Symbolic:

I used to own the Ponder 6C 2300. It was pretty on the outside but if you looked closely anywhere it was an obvious total fake made up of nothing more than a total bitsa engine and gearbox, part of an original Alfa frame and front and rear suspension. Everything else dated from a 1988 new construction using the above bits and pieces as a starting point.


I owned it at $50K and struggled for two years to sell it for $65K in the early 90s. It doubled in value every time it traded thereafter. At the price it sold for at the Ponder sale, it brought more money in my eyes than what the real car would have been worth.

I thought that the Arnolt Bristols were ugly in real time, and find no reason to change that.

Over $200,000 for an Healey 100 M
