AUBURN, Ind. (AP) - The red-and-yellow winged roadster that starred in the film "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" sold at auction for $505,000 to a Florida collector.
Ralph Spencer of Jacksonville, Fla., bought the car during a sale Saturday at 16th annual Auburn Spring Motorfair at Kruse Auction Park. Spencer, owner of Mulch Manufacturing Inc., already owns a 1966 Batmobile and said he had his eyes on the winged car for the past few years.
"I've always liked this car," Spencer said. "I was a fan of the movie."
