The coming sale of the Haig Alltounian’s Monaco received from Steve McQueen has reminded couple of differences with what has been published in OTD years ago.
On one hand, we have the chart describing the story of the six 1133b and the description of Michael Clerizo in the Wall Street Journal article “The Hunt of McQueen’s Heuers”.
On the other hand, we have a story of the six 1133b Monaco’s with 2 references (Mon05 and Mon06) which doesn’t match with the chart mentioned above.
If the story of the two models purchased by the DeVos family is confirmed and since we have two models which have been engraved with the names of Haig A. and Maher–Brongesse, we are left with 2 models with different stories. Given to M. Ledermann for one and given to Nunley’s friend and then sold to Eisenberg for the other. This is in contradiction which what has been published in “onthedash.com/heuers-in-le-mans” where the last two would have been given to the driver H. Kelleners and the mechanic B. Weston.
On October 28, 2020, OTD has published “McQueen and his Monaco” confirming the story included in the original chart. Could we conclude that we have today enough evidences to disregard the stories of Mon05 and Mon06 published on April 3, 2014 ?
