Actually -- and continuing the discussion about whether a fully restored "dataplate" warbird is worth more than an unrestored warbird (e.g., Dottie Mae) -- many in the sportscar world believe that this car will go for MORE than any of the restored Bugatti Atlantic examples have thus far.
In fact, I've heard it may become the most expensive car ever auctioned!

Hmmm,
I just watched a show a few days ago about one that was found in CT.
It sold at Concourse of Greenwich, CT for $850k
It was a bargain I guess.

Just saw a military vehicle collectors magazine where a British collector recovered 14 or 15 M3 Stuart tanks from Brazil. All intact and in remarkable condition. They were in indoor storage until 5 years ago.
