The burnt-out shell of an old Ferrari racing car has sold at auction in the US for nearly $2 million, BBC News reported.
It caught fire during a race in the 1960s and was not touched for decades.
It was driven by Franco Cortese, Ferrari's first racing driver. Analysts say the new buyer may want to restore it so it can race again.
The 1954 car is a 500 Mondial Spider Series I—one of 13 ever made, with a body produced by designer Pinin Farina.
