RM Sothebys is auctioning off the “Lost and Found Collection” this week in Monterey, and there is a lot of excitement about this group of cars. Ferraris Online’s founder, Mike Sheehan, sold a few of the cars from this collection back in the 80’s. Amazing Ferraris such as a California Spyder, 206 SP, 312 T4, and 512M. There are some incredible cars in this collection coming to auction this week, but we wanted to tell the untold story and show some never before seen photos of the cars that have already been sold.

Great to hear the background on some of these cars. I miss your podcast with the other stories Mike has from over the years with acquiring cars. With the 1954 500 Mondial Spider, the buyer of the crumpled frame, can get the factory to recreate the body panels, engine, gearbox, trim etc? All those jigs and patterns still exist there? Amazing.

Racing cars get banged up normally, and many have been partially or totally reskinned. The chassis is repairable and if they don't have the original body bucks they can recreate the body from photos and measurements of original cars.

Walter Medlin stories always fascinated me - the guy's "collection habits" were those of a reclusive, eccentric hoarder.

Another great family sit down! Might be my favorite so far. Your dad’s history with that collection and insider commentary of Walt is priceless. The pictures supporting the story should be framed on a wall as art. :). Seeing the only raced F50 would be nice- we unfortunately will not be there.

Wow! As soon as I saw the pics it jogged my memory of an article I saw in the 1991 Road and track special magazine I have and an article by Bill Warner about a Walter Medlin ! I do believe these are the same cars?! Great history and nostalgia! By the way, is Mike well? or has he been ill? Hope all is well, greetings from Ottawa.

IRS has nothing to do with Walter selling of the cars. I know him personally he was ready for the cars to go to good homes. Well did not even need the money. But great story.
