The Boomerang was based on Maserati Bora chassis as a one-off. The Boomerang was registered as a road car, but it was intended as a one-off show car. It was shown in dozens of places, and after the 1974 car show in Barcelona it was sold to a private individual. In 1990, it was shown at the Bagatelle Concours in Paris, 1993 Concorso Italiano, Carmel (Calf.) and Pebble Beach, with a new owner and some restoration work having been done. It made an appearance again in 2000 at the Monterey Historic Automobile Races, and Pebble Beach - 50th Anniversary -, 2012 "BEST OF SHOW", May, Monte Carlo, Monaco, 2013 "BEST OF SHOW", October, Knokke, Belgium, 2014 "Paris Motor Show". On 5 September, 2015, the Boomerang was auctioned by Bonhams at the Château de Chantilly, France, and sold for $3.7 million.
This is the Eidai around 1/25 model/motorized toy. The color is not correct for the real car, but this one is in my survivor collection so it will stay in the original plastic color. I do plan to wax it after the pics.
