Samuri for sale...

[Russ]

Hi,

Just got home and got some post through from Bonhams, this time for last entries to the Race Retro auction Sat 24th March (see http://www.bonhams.com/cgi-bin/public.sh/pubweb/publicSite.r?sContinent=EUR&screen=carsRaceRetro).

I'll let you know when it appears online and what details they give.

 

[Arkwright]

you better empty your moneybox Russ and start counting up.

I can't make out the plate, but it isn't Big Sam (arches are wrong).

Thinking about it, I'm not sure Big Sam even has a plate !!!!

 

[STEVE BURNS]

Think you will find it is James Morris's Sam
Remember talking to his wife a couple of weeks back to try and get James to come on the parade laps and she told me that he was thinking of putting it up for auction but he was abroad at the time so he couldn;t confirm

 

[ZHead]

That is not Big Sam

 

[STEVE BURNS]

No it is James Morris's If you look carfully at the photo you can see that it is him driving

Also on looking at the photo again I am sure I have seen it in an article somewhere

 

[SeanDezart]

Enthusiasm wanes then.......

Would be a shame, Sean, if it does as it is one of the nicest Sams arround

[moggy240]

call me stupid but what is the difference between a super samuri and a samuri ?

 

[DJZ 60]

can't! DJZ 60.

 

[Russ]

[samuri-240]

I don't think there is any difference between a Samuri & Super Samuri, if there is it is the extended arches & deep from air dam. In there day they where all known as Super Samuri's I guess called Samuri for short.

Is anybody going to attend the auction?

I've seen this car and it is very well 'presented'. I have some pictures of it at the Goodwood Z club trackday too.
