First Ferrari to be Exhibited at Desert Concours
On March 1st, less than a month from now, the very first Ferrari ever built will be on display at the Inaugural Desert Classic Concours d'Elegance in Palm Springs. Chassis Number 01C hasn't made a public appearance in 20 years, and this appearance will be made even more special by that fact that the car has a unique history in the area -- it recorded its first ever western U.S. race win in Palm Springs back in 1951.
Many other rare cars will be appearing at the historic O'Donnell Golf club that day, and tickets are just $20 for regular admission or a limited number of VIP tickets will be available for $150.

Why does this car look so dirty, like it's not been polished in years?

The paint on the car is original and I would suspect most everything else is also, making it HIGHLY valuable.

Can it be polished, even if it is the original paint?

it can, but that will disturb the "patina" of the original paint. but there is probably some cracking due to the type of paint used on old cars. Basically, if you want to knock a good 1.5 million off the value, polish away.
