Chitty Bang Bang II

Chitty Bang Bang II has been sold by the Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum to Robert Bahre of Maine, who owns the New Hampshire International Speedway. With a Grosser Mercedes-Benz the sale netted US$1.95 million. Previously the museum had refused a bid of $1.5 million for Chitty. One comment was that it had “traded buckets of coal for buckets of ashes”.
