The Keno Brothers New York City 2015 auction will be held November 18-19 at Skylight Clarkson Sq in Soho, New York City. The debut Keno Brothers Fine Automobile Auctions event, named Rolling Sculpture, will take place during the heart of the New York art auction season.<\/p>\n

Headline offerings at the Keno Brothers Manhattan 2015 sale include the NART 1971 Ferrari 365 GTB\/4 \u2018Daytona\u2019 that finished fifth overall at Le Mans, a 1969 Lamborghini Miura P400 S and a 1934 Duesenberg SJ Continental Touring Berline by Rollston.<\/p>\n

This 1971 Ferrari 365 GTB\/4 Daytona on offer, serial number 12467, was modified from a standard road car for North American Racing Team (NART) and entered in the 1971 24 Hours of Le Mans. This era is still considered the golden age of road racing, due to the colossal battle between Ferrari and Porsche, and their 5-liter World Sports Car (WSC) Championship machines. Driven by Americans Bob Grossman and Luigi Chinetti Jr., 12467 finished in fifth position overall, behind only the larger and more powerful WSC machines. It came in eight laps ahead of the GT cars that it would be classified against in the future.<\/p>\n

In 1972, 12467 would go on to place within the top 5 spots in the 2.5-liter plus category at the 6 Hours of Daytona, 12 Hours of Sebring and the 6 Hours of Watkins Glen. It is eligible for historic racing events around the world. The pre-sale auction estimate for the car is $4,900,000 to $5,900,000.<\/p>\n
