Preview (beginning of the article)

The entry list for the RM Auctions auction to be held on January 20/21 in Arizona (USA) will make connoisseurs' mouths water and potential buyers' pockets water. One of the highlights is certainly the Ferrari 166 MM Barchetta from 1949 (lot 285, chassis number 0024M). This car has an almost romantic story. According to RM Auctions, this is a "matching number" vehicle (the original engine is in the car) and the tenth of 25 Ferrari 166 MM Barchettas ever built. The car is said to have been shown at the Paris Motor Show in 1949 and also has a successful racing history including the Mille Miglia.
