Monaco Auction 2018 – Preview

May 11, 2018 by Scott Grundfor

The Monaco auctions complimented by the famous Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix will be happening this weekend featuring a spectacular array of vehicle offerings.

The usual suspects will be on hand, being a mix of early classics, mid-century masterpieces and modern super cars. Sprinkle in a dash of retired Formula 1 Grand Prix cars, including Ayrton Senna’s record-breaking sixth and last Monaco Grand Prix winner – “the most historically important Formula 1 McLaren ever presented at auction” – and you have the recipe for an exciting weekend of bidding!

The very first 230SL engine. Installed in the earliest known Pagoda in existence, a pre W113 series example with an accounting code for a chassis number and a special Mercedes-Benz that we will soon be embarking on restoring. We rarely step outside of 300SL`s for full on restoration work, but this one got our attention and will receive the very best of our restorative acumen.
