There is a great story on this car in Excellence, a Porsche magazine,
http://www.excellenc...=3#.VGJl1DpOXOE
which says it is 1008.
That writer says that the former race car of CeeGee, a famous Swedish disc jockey, was sold to Hans Thulin and that an American heard about a forced sale of assets and bought it , after besting two other buyers who were in town to bid on it too. I was wondering if this was really the Hans Thulin Abarth Carrera--somebody who saw the list of his assets for sale (Thulin was a fugitive financier who built a collection of ultra-luxury cars, including the world’s most expensive automobile, a Bugatti Royale that he bought for $9.7 million in 1987 and sold for $15.7 million three years later) says it wasn't on the list. Maybe he owned a different one? I would like to hear the price paid and what year it was sold. I was wondering also if the story how the buyers competed with each other is true. I hope it is because it makes a good story, we rarely have a chance to see who else is bidding in these situations. Sometimes there's a chance there to psyche them out (Whatever you bid, I'll top you, yadda-yadda (do British people say "yadda-yadda?").
