mfg Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Although the 'Due Cento' and the gold #9 Bonneville Avantis still exist, unfortunately the red #8 Bonneville Avanti was destroyed in a garage accident back in the seventies....True? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunslinger Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Nope...until recently it's been residing in a repair garage a few miles from me. I have a number of photographs I took of it with the R3 engine on a stand. I put out the word last year it was for sale and a number of interested parties contacted me. The first to meet the owner with a fistful of cash took the car home to another state. Yes...it was involved in a fire at one point but was not destroyed.

The owner may wish to stay anonymous. Gunslinger will you be so kind to post the photos you have, he would greatly appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
