Chassis:
One of seven Z102Bs fitted with the second series Saoutchik Coupe body. It was completed in the fall of 1954 and delivered to its Paris, France owner Lamy de Caen. During the early 1960s, it was imported to the United States by Don Rickert who had acquired the car when he served in Spain for the US Air Force. In 1964, it was sold to Bill Harrah for his fabulous Automobile Collection. Harrah's shop then performed a complete in-house restoration. During the process, the restorers regularly corresponded with the Pegaso factory. In 1987 Harrah's collection was bought by the Imperial Palace Collection and the car was displayed in their Las Vegas museum. During the early 2000s, it was bought by the Blackhawk Collection and between 2006 and 2008, it was restored once more. Chassis 0146 was then shown at select events like the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance and the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. The rare Saoutchik Coupe was subsequently consigned to Gooding's 2017 Amelia Island auction.
