2003 Bonhams Butterfields Auction
This was the first Bonhams and Butterfields Auction I attended. The auction takes place at the end of the day following the Quail Lodge Motorsports Event. As it was the last event I encountered (I came here after the Conscorsco Italiano and checking out the remaining cars from the Quail Lodge Motorsports Event) I was almost out of film and had to choose my subjects with care. I think the Alfa Prototype was the last car I shot before running out of film. And since I didn't have a catalogue, I was able to get much information on those I did photograph. Unfortunately I wasn't able to stay long enough to see what these cars sold for.

I think this is may be a BRM, only because it bares a strong resmeblance to similar car which appear briefly in the movie "Grand Prix". |
