Market commentary
There was some spirited bidding for this AAR Eagle, as the result indicates. It was conducted, at least in the room, by well informed collectors whose values arent generally clouded by bidding hysteria, so well let it stand as under reserved by RM and appropriately bought by the collector racer who ended up with it. Gurney was overheard muttering about continuation cars as he left the venue.
