Yes its rare. One of two. https://www.hagerty.com/media/drivin...expensive-car/

It did give me a chuckle seeing the random riveting though. Caught me off guard and had a"'holy crap" moment.

I'll second the 'Holy Crap' !! but not a better way to spend an extra $142,000,000, lying around. A painting (Art) of that value you can only look at, this Mercedes gets you all of your sense's working

I have a basket case 1912 8 valve Small Base Indian board track racer. The ones with no brakes, no throttle and tires that can come off with just a little side force! I probably will only ride it once, then it will be retired to the living room. One of my friends thought that was sad, another said, "well it beats the hell out of a Picasso, and, it's a hole lot faster!"
