"1938 Alfa Romeo 2900B Mille Miglia Spider Replica by Appenine"

I thought that was too good to be true. After all, they've been long accounted for.

Sale of the century.

Three key words: "Offered without Reserve." Who does that in this day and age?

Any how many Disco Volante replicas does a man need?

 

[PSk]

So many replicas. Almost every 30s car is a replica ...
And why so many Arnolt's?

Every interesting car, especially Italian car, is a replica ... and the 58 TR is a shocker.

Single handedly kept the replica market going!

The "Ponder 8C" looks as though it has been decorated for a circus.
It has been sadly had chromed pieces put everywhere, the shape changed,
a lot of badges and stickers and looks nothing like the Appenine it was originally.
A sad sight.

 

[PSk]

Won't be a real 8c anyway

 

[WarrenD]

Apparently there was around $200,000 spent on the Appenine to make it look the way it does now. Such a shame.
