This magazine doesn't seem to be sold over here....is there any kind of link to the ad? I could not find it through their web site.
Jim,
there is one in the Octane magazine too, but it's a very low key ad.

Winner of the Goodwood Revival, Le Mans Classic, Tour Espana, Cento Ore, Tour Brittania and many other historic races. Spares package including spare engine and gearbox.
PX considered if the right car.

that's it. Nothing on the Lanzante website either.

Got it. I do take OCTANE and you are right, the ad is in there. I missed it. Well, maybe if I swap my house, 1149, my boat, and a few children in the bargain....

VEry cool car...someone's going to have a lot of fun with that one.
When it was here it had a type 0 gearbox from 1010 in it, I understand that there are two engines and two gearboxes in the deal.
Not included I fear.
The catalogue says 'A further spares package that includes a complete 4.7-litre V8 engine, running gear and more bodywork is available under separate negotiation direct with the seller'.
So once you've paid your £1m plus another £125k or so commision you'll have to find a bit more for these 'extras'.
Any guesses as to how much the hammer price will be?

750,000 Pounds.
High end vintage Ferrari prices are down 40 percent (same buyer profile). So, I would guess an orig GT40 with race history is $1.5M-$2.5M while one without race history probably $500K less than that. But I really don't know anything about such matters.
My guess it wont sell under the hammer, but will after the auction !
