  • 1961 Maserati 3500GT Vignale Spyder 1

    The late 1950s were a halcyon period for Grand Touring cars and few were more stylish than the Maserati 3500GT Vignale Spyder. This particular example – chassis number AM101.1297 – is one of only five right-hand-drive cars built and was completed on 23 May 1961. The Maserati is thought to have been sold new via Arturo Tuena in Genoa to an Englishman who was living in Italy – hence the right-hand-drive configuration. Finished in Acciaio Brunito with a black interior, it originally wore steel wheels but they were later replaced with the optional Borrani wires. As a relatively early example of the 3500GT Spyder, it featured the four-speed gearbox. Not until later in the production run did Maserati fit a five-speed unit. The car was in the UK by 1969, when it was acquired by Stuart Cawley, who had seen it advertised for sale in Motor Sport magazine. It had been repainted Cream but was still on Milanese registration plates, and having bought it for £1200 – against which he part-exchanged his Mercedes-Benz 190SL – Cawley drove it from London back home to Scotland. Having used the Maserati for a couple of years, he drove it down to Italy in 1971 so that the engine could receive some remedial work at Autocorse – as recommended by the factory. Having not been entirely happy with the results, he returned in 1972 so that a more comprehensive rebuild of the straight-six could be carried out. Cawley moved to Hertfordshire in 1975 and got to know marque specialist Bill McGrath. When Cawley later retired, he went to work for McGrath part-time, and in return Bill stored the 3500GT Vignale Spyder free of charge. Having not had much use out of the car in the later years of his ownership, Cawley eventually decided to sell it in 2000 to Patrick Martin, who he knew as a customer of McGrath. Martin had it mechanically recommissioned and in 2004 used it for the Maserati 90th anniversary celebrations in Italy. The following year, he sold the car to Edwin Faulkner, who commissioned a bodywork restoration by Jim Henshaw, during which it was resprayed in the Maserati shade of Avorio. A retrim was also carried out. Faulkner kept the Vignale Spyder on the Isle of Man and, as part of the registration process there, had to replace the original kilometres-per-hour speedometer with a miles-per-hour version. He sold it in 2010 to a UK-based owner who had it returned to its original colour of Acciaio Brunito by respected restoration firm Moto Technique. Three years later it passed to another UK enthusiast, and in 2014 it was used on the Maserati Club Scottish Tour as well as the Goodwood Road Racing Club’s Corsica and Sardinia Tour. The Maserati was displayed at concours events and was runner-up in the Club Trophy at the 2016 Concours of Elegance at Windsor Castle. It was also part of the Earls Court display at the 2014 Goodwood Revival, and was first in class and overall winner at the 2016 Maserati Club Concours. Now being offered for sale at The Classic Motor Hub in exceptional condition, this well-known and supremely stylish Maserati 3500GT Vignale Spyder has been maintained with no expense spared in recent years. In February 2022, its gearbox and steering box were rebuilt by McGrath and it benefits from electric power-steering. It also comes with a consignment of spares that includes five road wheels, a pair of front brake discs and a steering column, plus an original copy of the driver’s manual. MODEL HISTORY Maserati had achieved great motorsport success during the 1950s, but despite taking Juan Manuel Fangio to his fifth and final Formula 1 World Championship in 1957, it announced its withdrawal from racing that year. The Italian company was in financial trouble and until that point it had built production road cars in only very small numbers. That changed in 1957 with the introduction of the 3500GT, which drew on Maserati’s racing experience but would be produced in far greater quantities than previous road cars. Originally launched as a 2+2 coupé, the 3500GT featured bodywork by Touring that was mounted on a tubular chassis. Beneath the bonnet was a 3485cc straight-six that was closely related to the marque’s competition engines and featured twin overhead camshafts, twin-plug ignition and a trio of twin-choke Webers. Following the success of the coupé, Touring and Frua both built prototypes for a keenly anticipated Spyder variant, but in the end Maserati commissioned a design of timeless elegance that had been created by Giovanni Michelotti for Vignale. When it was introduced in 1959, the 3500GT Vignale Spyder featured drum brakes all round – those at the front were soon replaced by discs – while suspension was via wishbones and coil springs at the front, with semi-elliptic leaf springs at the rear. The wheelbase was slightly shorter than on the coupé, at 2500mm rather than 2600mm. Upgrades applied during its production run included a five-speed gearbox in place of the previous four-speeder, all-round disc brakes from 1962, and the development of the 3500GTI. Having been fitted with Lucas fuel-injection, the power output for this model was boosted to 235bhp – the carburettor-fed model gave in the region of 220bhp. In total, 245 Vignale Spyders were built between 1959 and 1964. When Road & Track magazine tested a 3500GT Spyder, it compared it favourably to the Ferrari 250 GT. With a top speed approaching 140mph, it certainly had the performance to go with its good looks, and it was little wonder that the Maserati became the Grand Tourer of choice for captains of industry and glamorous socialites alike. 1961 Maserati 3500GT Vignale Spyder The Classic Motor Hub If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1996 Chevrolet Corvette C2

    When we talk about American Muscle we are talking about the Corvette. Already at the 8th generation by now, but god how much we are fans of the first generations. The C2 Stingray, is an iconic two-seater that captured the hearts of car enthusiasts in the 1960s. With its striking design, powerful engines and innovative features, the Corvette C2 shot into a new era. The roaring engine is the heart of the Corvette. The engine range starts from the 327 cubic inch V8 engine to the 427 cubic inch V8. The C2 Corvette's lightweight body, combined with its powerful engines and agile handling, makes this a true monster on wheels. American innovation? Yes indeed! The C2 was not just about engine performance. Possessing a number of innovative features such as: hidden headlights, independent rear suspension and a removable hardtop roof. The C2 Corvette's sleek, aerodynamic design, with its long, low hood and pointed rear end. This gives the distinctive look that is distinctive from other sports cars of the roaring 60's. Today, the C2 Corvette is still a highly sought-after collector car, because let's face it, who doesn't want to play the bad guy? Ours? One that could no doubt hang on the wall in many a boy's room. The invoices and documentation are present and known. The bodywork on this one is in very good condition. The deliciously roaring eight-cylinder squeezes out 340 throbbing horses. Neatly overhauled and honed with msd ignition and extra air cooling. Also cool a 4 barrel carburetor, nice for the pub. Upon entering the blue leather interior you imagine yourself in some sort of seventh heaven. Are you ready to rumble?

  • 1982 Porsche 935 JLP-4

    The Porsche 935 Decisive. Is there any other way to describe the success of Porsche’s legendary Group 5 silhouette racer, the 935? These Teutonic twin-turbocharged titans were the force to be reckoned with in top-flight endurance racing – both in Europe and across the pond in America. Notches on the 935’s period competition belt include an outright 24 Hours of Le Mans victory in 1979, a staggering six Daytona 24 Hours and 12 Hours of Sebring wins apiece, and three consecutive FIA World Championships for Makes. In the Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft, a Porsche 935 won every single race in 1977, 1978 and 1979.   JLP Racing It’s telling of the ‘free-radical’ philosophy of endurance racing in the late-1970s and 1980s that plucky privateer outfits had the confidence to enhance and build their own cars with which to take on the might of the factory teams – and often win! In the Porsche world at that time, the widely renowned names of Kremer and Joest in Europe and Andial and JLP Racing in the United States best embody that David versus Goliath mentality. In 1979, when Porsche called time on the 935, the father-and-son duo behind JLP Racing, John Paul Sr. and John Paul Jr., started building their own Porsche 935 ‘Specials’ in order to extend the model’s longevity and maintain its competitiveness against purpose-built prototypes in the fiercely popular IMSA GT Championship in the United States. Maintain the 935’s competitiveness the Pauls most certainly did. They bolstered their remarkable driving talent with cars that were designed and built by skilled people who really knew what they were doing, utilising the newest and most exciting technology. Second overall in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, a win in the 12 Hours of Sebring and victory in the Daytona 24 Hours – these standout results show what a formidable partnership the Pauls and their skunkworks’ self-built Porsches achieved.   JLP-4 Of the four JLP Racing Porsche 935 ‘Specials’, it’s the final car, chassis JLP-4, which was by far and away the most extreme. The brief for JLP-4 was simple: to build a car which effectively harnessed the then-dark art of aerodynamic ground effect and could therefore match the pace of the newly introduced IMSA GTP prototypes. In short, JLP Racing wanted to win the 1982 championship outright. Two people were instrumental in realising what is today the zenith of the Porsche 935: Dave Klym, whose Georgia-based FABCAR outfit specialised in building Porsche racing cars, and Lee Dykstra, the talented engineer who’d subsequently go on to design Jaguar’s IMSA GTP prototypes. The starting point was a bespoke central monocoque chassis, which was reinforced at the front and the rear with lightweight tubular arrangements, akin to how Porsche had built its famous 935 ‘Moby Dick’ in 1978. Standard double-wishbone suspension could be found at the front, while at the rear a complex rocker arm system was implemented to facilitate airflow around the engine as part of the wildly complicated ground-effect floor. Ground effect was JLP-4’s party piece. Dykstra went to great lengths to perfectly synchronise the ducts, dams and tunnels beneath the surface with the slab-sided soap bar-shaped bodywork – again, a design influenced by ‘Moby Dick’ but improved in almost every way. Dykstra and FABCAR miraculously managed to gain access to the aircraft manufacturer Lockheed’s state-of-the-art wind tunnel and spent weeks perfecting the art of ground effect. All the latest and greatest 935 parts from Porsche were then fitted: the 930/80 air-cooled twin-plug 3.2-litre flat-six, two KKK turbochargers, an advanced Kugelfischer fuel injection system, the famous ‘upside-down’ four-speed gearbox, wheels and brakes, air jacks and finally titanium axles. Power was rated at 840HP while running at 1.2 bar of boost – a pressure the car could withstand as it was designed specifically for shorter sprint races (JLP-3 had the long-distance events pretty well covered). This 935 didn’t even have lights. Around 750,000 US dollars, 3,600 man hours and a slick Miller Beer livery later and JLP-4 was finally ready for its maiden competitive outing: the IMSA Championship round at Brainerd Raceway in Minnesota. Lo and behold, in front of a sell-out crowd which had been hotly anticipating the debut of JLP Racing’s newest weapon, John Paul Jr won the race – fending off Danny Onglais in a Lola T600 GTP prototype and John Fitzpatrick in a Kremer-built 935. Between July of 1982 and April of 1983, JLP Racing entered JLP-4 in six further races, including the Toyota Grand Prix 100 Miles at Portland International Raceway, which it won, and the 1983 Daytona 24 Hours. While the car was predominantly piloted by John Paul Jr., in the Pabst 500 Miles at Road America the three-times 24 Hours of Le Mans winner and five-times Daytona 24 Hours victor Hurley Haywood strapped in and tamed the beast. John Paul Jr was crowned the IMSA Camel GT Drivers’ Champion at the end of 1982, a feat he could not have accomplished without the precious two wins driving JLP-4. The celebrations would be somewhat short lived, however – both Paul Sr. and Paul Jr. were embroiled in their own respective legal battles and criminal downfalls (cigarette boats and an industrial volume of weed) and JLP Racing folded. JLP-4 was given to Paul Sr.’s lawyer in lieu of an outstanding payment and it was subsequently displayed in the world-famous Petersen Museum in Los Angeles – the place it called home for over 15 years. The American collector and keen historic racer Robert Tornello acquired JLP-4 in 1998 and recommissioned the car with a view to racing it in the popular HSR series. In addition to taking it to Sebring, Tornello returned JLP-4 to the history-steeped banking of the Daytona International Speedway – and on a number of occasions. Following a further comprehensive rebuild, this Porsche 935 ‘Special’ travelled to Italy, where it’s remained ever since. During its recent tenure in Europe, JLP-4 has made appearances at the popular Vernasca Silver Flag hill-climb in Italy and, in 2014, the world-famous Goodwood Festival of Speed, where it was driven by the American-road-racing legend John Fitzpatrick. Around this time, the car was also featured in an extensive feature in Motorsport magazine. JLP-4’s current owner acquired the car in 2017, along with a wealth of technical drawings, build sheets, race programmes and even the original body moulds. There’s even a rare scale model of the car, which JLP Racing commissioned to celebrate John Paul Jr.’s title win in 1982. Today, JLP-4 is the final, fastest and most technologically sophisticated Porsche 935 of them all – from the time when the curtain was finally dropping on one of motorsport history’s most dominant sports-racing models. For the keen historic racer, getting to grips with this 840HP ground-effect Goliath, essentially a GTP prototype in a 935 dress, would be an exhilarating experience to say the least. And there is a host of events for which JLP-4 would be eligible, including the Masters Endurance Legends USA series, HSR Post-Historic GT, Classic Daytona 24 Hours and Classic Sebring 12 Hours. This most special of Porsche competition cars is patiently waiting for its legacy to be continued. 1982 Porsche 935 JLP-4 Girardo & Co.

  • 1974 Ferrari 365 Berlinetta Boxer

    Having been fully restored by a Ferrari specialist in Maranello – home of the legendary marque itself – this 365 GT4 BB is in concours-ready condition and boasts a fascinating history. As shown on the original correspondence in the car’s extensive history file, chassis number 18145 was ordered by Ferrari’s British importer, Maranello Concessionaires, in June 1974. It was finished in Rosso Chiaro with Beige interior and was delivered in September of that year, ready to be displayed at the Earls Court Motor Show the following month. The Ferrari was then sold to its first owner – the London Sports Car Centre in Edgware – in January 1975 for £14,255. Having been registered HLD 15N, it passed in short order to Essex-based James Porter and then John Millward, who took delivery in April 1975. Millward was a keen amateur racer and he’s pictured competing in the car at Silverstone in Mel Nichols’ 1979 book Ferrari Berlinetta Boxer – a copy of which is included in the file. Millward briefly sold the BB in the late 1970s but soon regretted the decision and bought it back. He eventually sold it for good in 1980, when it passed to Leonard Potter and was re-registered 111 HLM. The following year, Potter sold it to Nigel Walker of Modena Engineering in East Horsley, and he commissioned Autokraft to convert the Ferrari into a ‘targa’ by having the roof panel removed and strengthening added to the chassis and sills. The car remained in that form for more than 30 years, through an extensive mid-1980s restoration, and would be featured in books such as the sixth edition of Ferrari by Hans Tanner and Doug Nye, as well as Ferrari Supercars by Nathan Beehl. Through 2015 and 2016, the BB was extensively restored to original specification in Maranello – all of the work is carefully catalogued in the history file, with the invoices totalling €190,000. The car was then awarded Red Book certification by Ferrari Classiche. Now being offered for sale by the Classic Motor Hub, this Ferrari 365 GT4 BB is presented in its original colour combination and is immaculate throughout. One of only 58 right-hand-drive cars delivered to the UK, it is supplied with its original instruction book and tool kit, was displayed at Salon Privé in 2021, and is surely one of the very best examples of Ferrari’s first mid-engined supercar. MODEL HISTORY Developed as a replacement for the front-engined Daytona, the Ferrari 365 GT4 BB was first shown at the 1971 Turin Motor Show before being put on sale two years later. It was the first mid-engined road car to carry the Ferrari name and – like the Scuderia’s contemporary Formula One cars and sports-prototypes – it featured a flat-12 powerplant. The 4390cc unit used belts rather than chains to drive its overhead camshafts, and it was mounted longitudinally, with the five-speed gearbox positioned underneath. When Motoring News tested a BB in July 1974, it said that, at high revs, ‘the engine is really howling… a beautiful, hard, cammy noise that is unmistakeably Ferrari’. The clean, angular Pininfarina styling laid down a template for mid-engined Ferraris that would last until well into the 1980s. Beneath it lay a blend of unitary construction around the cabin and a tubular structure elsewhere, and the bodywork was made of steel – apart from the doors and the nose and tail sections, which were aluminium. Inside, air-conditioning was standard and road-testers complimented the comfort levels and general ease with which this latest two-seater supercar could be driven. It came at a price, though, with only a handful of ultra-exclusive cars from Mercedes and Rolls-Royce costing more than the 365 GT4 BB when it was launched. With 360bhp, the BB had a top speed in the region of 180mph, and Motoring News recorded an unofficial 0-100mph sprint in 12 seconds while carrying a full load of fuel. There was a competition-spec version, too – the BB LM, which was raced by the likes of legendary Ferrari concessionaires NART and Ecurie Francorchamps. A Charles Pozzi-entered BB LM managed to finish fifth overall at Le Mans in 1981 with the all-French driver line-up of Claude Ballot-Léna and Jean-Claude Andruet. Only 387 examples of the 365 GT4 BB were built before it morphed into the 512 BB in 1976. This new model featured an enlarged 4942cc engine but was still fitted with Weber carburettors. These were finally phased out on the 512i, which was introduced in 1981 and represented the final stage in the development of the Berlinetta Boxer before it was replaced by the Testarossa in 1984. 1974 Ferrari 365 Berlinetta Boxer The Classic Motor Hub If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1969 Alfa Romeo Guilia Sprint GT

    THE ALFA-ROMEO GULIA GTA 1600 CORSA The ‘A’ at the end of the name stands for Alleggerita, Italian for lightweight. The cars were put on a rigorous diet with Alfa Romeo engineers swapping the glass side windows for Perspex, adding various aluminium suspension components, even fitting lightweight door handles! By the end of its weight-saving programme, the GTA weighed in at a spritely 740 kilograms, with its engine producing upwards of 170 BHP in full race specification. Autodelta, the racing department of Alfa Romeo, focussed on the 1600cc engine which was developed with a new high-flow head and twin spark plugs, a larger oil sump, oil cooler, high-compression competition pistons and sportier cam shafts. The drivetrain was also developed, receiving a lighter flywheel, close ratio gears and a limited-slip differential. Of the 500 examples required to obtain homologation, the majority entered competition, as a result, today these cars are highly eligible and competitive across historic motor racing. On the 1st January 1968, a new chassis number sequence starting with *848001* was homologated, featuring ATE front and rear brakes, a brake servo, 6” X 15” rims, as well as the two new rear axle ratios, 6/41 and 7/43. Furthermore, a new intake port diameter of the cylinder head was homologated. This change permitted a more efficient volumetric filling of the combustion chambers at high rpm, allowing the engine to create more power. The here offered Sprint GTA completed manufacture on 19th February 1969, and was delivered new to the German market on 17th June, before being sold new to Mr Bernd Fischer, an amateur racer who had his competition cars prepared by the Alfa Romeo Dealer from Mannheim, Helmut Hähn. Chassis 848003, offered here, is noted in Tony Adriensens GTA bible, Alleggerita, as participating at the AvD/ACS Hockenheim race on 25th August 1973 where it was driven by Bernd Fischer and entered by Alfa Romeo Hähn, finishing 3rd in class. Also noted in Alleggerita was another competition outing, this time in March 1974 at the Auto-und Motorradsalon Ludwigshafen in Germany where it wore race number 389, again entered by Alfa Romeo Hähn. There are also two images from this event showing 848003 in the paddock at this event in Alleggerita. Sadly, in the race at Auto-und Motorradsalon the car retired with engine issues. Mr Michael Heine, an enthusiastic researcher of Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA’s, who wrote a book dedicated to the GTA’s of Herbert Schultze, bought the car at the circuit from Bernd Fischer. During his ownership, Mr Heine rebuilt the engine and kept the car in his collection until 2005 when it was sold, at which point it was still wearing its original competition livery. The cars next owner was Mr Frank Strothe who embarked upon a mechanical restoration with Stein Sportwagenservice. Strothe competed with the car at various historic events across Europe, including Spa-Francorchamps, with Marcus Niestrath of Romeo Racing preparing the car. The fourth owner of 848003 was Mr Peter Praller who bought the car in 2012. Praller is best known for his company, Formula GT, and the superb engines they build for competition cars. Since taking ownership a few years later, the current owner has maintained the car regardless of cost at Formula GT in Munich, regularly participating in various historic competition events across Europe including Hockenheim and Monza. The GTA is one of the most iconic racing cars of the 1960’s, experiencing huge success at International levels around the world, with only 501 examples built. As in period, the GTA is one of the most versatile competition cars, suitable for the Tour Auto, Spa 6 Hours or U2TC series, this car offers the next owner a fantastic opportunity to compete at a variety of events.

  • 1973 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 1

    The Jaguar E-type Series 3 OTS. A car from the time when smoking was still healthy, television had only one channel and most importantly; the time when driving was still really driving, without aids or sensation-enhancing trickery! The E-type was introduced in Europe on 15 March 1961 at the Geneva Motor Show and in the United States in April of the same year at the New York Motor Show. When the car was first shown, Enzo Ferrari called it 'The most beautiful car ever made'. He is right to this day! Our E-type is from the last generation, the Series 3. The Series 3 was introduced in 1971. The most notable change was the brutal 5.3 liter V12 engine block. Because it was such a heavy block, power steering also became standard. Furthermore, the wheel arches were slightly flared and the grille became slightly larger, to cool the muscular black cat. With the four wide exhaust tips that roar and growl when the Jaguar is started, you can't help but get in with a big smile every time as an enthusiast. This is pure passion in its purest form. Recently fully restored down to the smallest detail and driven in for you over a distance of 1,000 miles. Which in automotive terms means that she has just passed her test drive license. This beauty comes from the collection of a collector with a preference for the finer things in life and an exceptionally sharp eye for detail. This is also the right reason that she is equipped with a 5-speed Getrag gearbox, which makes long journeys on the highway a lot more pleasant without the engine having to scream like an opera singer in the revs. Step into the interior, an oasis of luxury with calfskin upholstery and dark piping - every detail has been chosen with love. This car is ideal for long journeys and perfect to take on holiday.

    1965 Aston Martin DB6 Vantage. C registration finished in Fiesta red with black leather interior. LBH 8C carry’s the chassis number DB6/2353/R which was Aston Martins first ever DB6 Vantage and in fact their factory demonstrator. Fiesta red with black leather is how it left the factory on the 8th September 1965, it was not only the first ever production Vantage but also only the third DB6 off the production line. Used for demonstration purposes and for the press articles up until April 1967 where the engine was replaced at the factory after it had done 17000 miles, it then went to its first private owner A Mr G O Lambert of Burnley with the first registered owner having been Aston Martin Lagonda Ltd. After 34 years in storage the most famous DB6 came up for auction in May 2014, on the advice of Aston Service Dorset it was acquired by the new owner and a full ground up restoration was started to return this car to the condition it left the factory in. More than £300,000 was spent on the restoration. The result is breath taking, not only is this DB6 the rarest of all DB6’S but it is without doubt the best one in existence today. The history file includes originals of the following magazines that tested this car back in period and later on in it's life: Motor magazine in January 1966, Autocar magazine in February 1966, and the front cover of Collectors car magazine back in 1981 and Sporting Cars magazine in 1984. The original buff log book and even the pouch that came in, receipts for every penny of expenditure throughout the restoration, photographs of the work done. Original DB6 instruction book, factory build sheets and lots more are included in the file. Below is a paragraph from Autocars original test: ‘Stage by stage, as the DB has become dominant in the Aston Martin strain, the successive cars have changed their image. Today the aim is to offer the maximum of luxury and refinement as well as the ultimate in road performance. The minor barbarities of so many great sports cars of the past are no longer acceptable – at least in the hand built models now leaving Newport Pagnell. Obviously, such a car as the DB6 is expensive and exclusive but the value matches the price.’ – Autocar, 1966 LBH 8C is a significant piece of Aston Martin History and would be worthy a place in any top Aston Martin collection in the world. It really is a blessing that this car was discovered after lying dormant for over three decades and then restored to it's former glory by a company who would of supplied parts for these cars from when they were new, so who better to know the correct way to bring this car back to life. A truly stunning car that we welcome any inspection on. 1965 Aston Martin DB6 Vantage Classic Connection If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Obviously, such a car as the DB6 is expensive and exclusive but the value matches the price.’ – Autocar, 1966 LBH 8C is a significant piece of Aston Martin History and would be worthy a place in any top Aston Martin collection in the world. It really is a blessing that this car was discovered after lying dormant for over three decades and then restored to it's former glory by a company who would of supplied parts for these cars from when they were new, so who better to know the correct way to bring this car back to life. A truly stunning car that we welcome any inspection on.

  • 1976 FERRARI 308 VETRORESINA

    Introduced in 1975, the glamorous 308 GTB, designed by Pininfarina and built by Scaglietti, was the first Ferrari road car with a fiberglass (vetroresina) body. Only 712 such models were built, tipping the scales at a relatively light 2,315 lbs. compared to later versions of the car built with steel panels that added some 330 lbs. The aerodynamic and well-balanced ‘vetroresina’ 308, equipped with a throaty transverse rear-mounted 2,966-cc V-8 and independent suspension, became an attractive choice for Ferrari enthusiasts looking for responsive performance and agile road-handling capabilities. This 1976 308 GTB is a remarkably well-preserved and prime example. Built for the U.S. market, it incorporates the required emissions and safety equipment of the era. Brought into the U.S. by Ferrari distributor Chinetti-Garthwaite Imports, the car had several long-term owners, beginning in January 1977, before being acquired by its current custodian in 2014. Since taking possession of the GTB, the consignor has had it regularly serviced by the Ferrari experts at well-regarded Fast Cars Ltd. of Redondo Beach, California, and, when idle, secured in a climate-controlled facility. The car is Ferrari Classiche certified and has just over 14,000 miles showing on the odometer. The GTB boasts an original and highly prized finish of Ferrari Fly Yellow complemented by an interior with saddle leather seating and black accents. The owner reports the dashboard and console are in fine form, instrumentation is in working order, and fit and finish all around is reflective of an exceptionally well-maintained, low-mileage Ferrari. The GTB rides on Michelin radials mounted on classic Campagnolo alloy wheels. Further, the consignor states that the engine and storage compartments are clean, and the original exhaust system is in sound condition. The factory owner’s manuals, tool kit, jack, and work light are also included. This 308 GTB is a rare lightweight Ferrari and a genuine opportunity to add a spirited prancing horse to your stable. 1976 FERRARI 308 VETRORESINA Mouse Motors LLC If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1995 Ferrari F512 M

    The Ferrari F512 M, or Modificata, launched in 1994 as the final version of the vaunted Testarossa. Ultimately, it was to be the last Ferrari produced with the company’s legendary horizontally opposed 12-cylinder engine. Every aspect of the model was refined from the previous version, with particular attention paid to the chassis, engine, and cosmetics. Numerous internal engine upgrades, including titanium connecting rods and other lightened components, along with increased compression, helped bump engine output to 440 horsepower—a noticeable boost over the preceding 512 TR. With additional improvements such as a new stainless exhaust, an updated suspension, and a new Bosch antilock braking system, the F512 M offered impressive power and fantastic handling benefiting from a near 50:50 weight distribution front to rear. Styling cues enhancing the model’s design included a unique set of taillights, three-piece alloy wheels by Speedline, and a completely revised front fascia, which combined the striking lines of the F40 and 512 BB/LM. The model’s unique fixed headlights, reminiscent of Scuderia Ferrari racing cars, such as the 512 S of 1970, and the 312PB of 1972, replaced the retractable units that made the Testarossa series so famous. Inside, the F512 M received minor changes, namely an updated steering wheel, adjustable aluminum pedals, a more powerful air-conditioning system, and revised cabin trim. In total, just 501 F512 M examples were manufactured for worldwide distribution, making it one of the rarest road-going models produced during former Ferrari chief Luca di Montezemolo's reign. It should come as no surprise that orders for this exclusive model quickly outmatched the number of available units, and even those individuals on a first-name basis with their local Ferrari supplier were unlikely to make the waiting list. Nowhere was this more evident than in the United States, which was allotted just 75 cars across approximately 50 licensed dealers. MODIFICATA NUMERO SEDICI Almost every F512 M was painted in standard Rosso Corsa, metallic black, or yellow, and then assigned to their originating dealer. According to a full registry compiled by marque historians Arvid and Edvar van Daalen, as few as 10 of the 501 Modificata examples produced were painted in non-standard shades, with only the most influential dealers and customers reportedly afforded this privilege. Such is evidently the case with the 16th US-market car, chassis 100483, offered here, which was delivered new to Ferrari of Denver, Colorado on 26 August 1996. It is finished in the extremely uncommon, smoky-silver shade of Canna di Fucile Metallizzato over a Beige leather interior finished with matching Castoro carpets. This incredible three-part color combination was only furnished on one other F512 M, chassis 100756. After passing through collections in New Jersey, Oregon, and Florida, by July 2007 it had been acquired by the collector Chuck Swimmer of San Diego, California, then showing nearly 8,500 miles. In June 2011, this special F512 M was passed to the noted gentleman driver and vintage racer Juan Barazi. At the time of his acquisition, the car indicated approximately 12,500 miles. Over the next three years, Barazi undertook a spree of absolute enjoyment, adding nearly 1,500 miles to the car while having it fastidiously maintained by Ferrari of San Diego. Barazi parted with this Canna di Fucile beauty in July 2014, and it has remained in the consignor’s care since August 2015. In preparation for sale, the consignor enlisted authorized Ferrari service facilities at Lake Forest Sports Cars of Lake Bluff, Illinois to complete a major engine-out servicing, which included a complete belt and pulley service, spark plug replacement, fluid flush, and new filters. As the most exciting and refined iteration of the Testarossa platform, the F512 M is considered by many to be the most desirable model in the series. A very rare sight in the United States, they remain highly collectible and prized for all their unique qualities. Now showing fewer than 14,150 miles at time of cataloguing and operating “on the button” thanks to its recent servicing, this stellar Canna di Fucile F512 M would be an excellent example for the individual looking to enjoy the thrills of flat-12 Ferrari ownership on the open road. 1995 Ferrari F512 M RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1991-jaguar-xjr-14

    In the final years of Group C, as regulations shifted toward 3.5‑litre, Formula 1–style engines, few cars captured the new direction as clearly as the Jaguar XJR‑14. Conceived by Tom Walkinshaw Racing as a clean break from Jaguar’s successful V12 prototypes, it combined an F1‑grade monocoque with a fully enclosed sports‑prototype body and a Jaguar‑badged Cosworth HB V8. Only three were built, each finished in Silk Cut’s two‑tone purple and driven by a frontline roster including Derek Warwick, Teo Fabi, Martin Brundle and David Brabham. The car offered here, Jaguar XJR‑14 chassis 791, is the third of those three works cars. It was introduced mid‑season in 1991 and immediately delivered, winning on its debut at the Nürburgring 1000 km in the hands of Warwick and Brabham. The same chassis would later be sent to the United States for IMSA duty, where Davy Jones drove it to victory at Road Atlanta in 1992 before a major accident at Lime Rock ended its frontline competition career. To understand why 791 matters, it is worth tracing the trajectory that produced it. Tom Walkinshaw’s relationship with Jaguar began in touring cars, where TWR‑run XJSs won the European Touring Car Championship in 1984. When Jaguar returned to sports‑car racing in 1985, TWR managed the Group C program using Tony Southgate–designed V12 prototypes that delivered World Sportscar Championship titles in 1987 and 1988 and Le Mans victories in 1988 and 1990. For 1991, the FIA’s move to 3.5‑litre, naturally aspirated engines and lower minimum weights demanded an entirely different approach. TWR brought in Ross Brawn from Arrows F1 to design a new car unrelated to the outgoing V12s. The resulting XJR‑14 was, in effect, a Formula 1 monocoque clothed as a Group C car, powered by a Jaguar‑badged version of Ford’s then‑current Cosworth HB V8, at that time otherwise reserved for Benetton in F1. Entry and exit were via the rear, with no conventional doors, underlining how far the car had moved from traditional endurance‑racing practice. 17DSC_3629-1991 Jaguar XJR-14 Silk Cut Webres-.jpg Three XJR‑14s were constructed: chassis 591, 691 and 791. Warwick and Brundle opened the 1991 World Sportscar Championship in 591, while Fabi and Brundle raced 691; between them they took wins at Monza and Silverstone after early setbacks at Suzuka. When the series resumed after Le Mans, Warwick received a new car, 791, with Brabham as his teammate and 591 relegated to spare‑car status. At the Nürburgring in August 1991, Fabi put 691 on pole, but Warwick and Brabham qualified alongside and led a Jaguar 1‑2 to the flag in 791. They followed that with fifth at Magny‑Cours and sixth at Mexico City, where delays and a problematic weekend for the team compromised results. For the final World Championship round at Autopolis, Warwick reverted to 591, but 791 remained in use; a week later, in the Japanese series round at Sugo, it was entrusted to regular Jaguar drivers Mauro Martini and Jeff Krosnoff, who finished ninth. In its short 1991 season, 791 thus contributed directly to Jaguar’s successful title campaign. By the end of that year, however, Jaguar’s finances were under pressure. Heavy investment from new owner Ford was required just to keep the company afloat, and the global race program could no longer be justified. The World Championship effort was dropped after 1991, but IMSA GTP continued for one more season, with 791 sent to the United States as the lead car expected to contend for the title. Despite running in essentially World Championship specification, the XJR‑14 was immediately on pace in America. Davy Jones took pole at the opening Miami street race, but a spin and non‑restart ended the day early. He then dominated at Road Atlanta, taking pole, fastest lap and leading from start to finish in 791. At Lime Rock, a broken wheel in a downhill section sent the car heavily into the tyre barriers; the monocoque suffered severe damage to its front‑left corner and was returned to the UK for repair. TWR switched Jones to chassis 691 (renumbered 192) for the balance of the season, and 791 did not race again. TWR’s composite subsidiary ASTEC repaired the damaged tub soon after the accident, but the car was never rebuilt into a running state before TWR’s closure in 2003. As the Arrows F1 team and TWR itself slid into receivership, the remaining Jaguars in the factory’s collection—including the surviving XJR‑14s—were identified as core assets. Of the three XJR‑14 chassis, one had already gone to a museum in Germany; the other two, 591 and 791, remained at the Walkinshaw facility, both repaired but incomplete following their series‑ending accidents. Given concerns about the extent of the Lime Rock repair, TWR commissioned ASTEC to build a completely new monocoque for 791 in 2001–2002, assembled using components from the original car and carrying its chassis plate. When the TWR collection was placed in administration, this “new” 791 was sold to US‑based collector. Discovering that his car sat on a fresh tub, he requested the original monocoque from TWR and chose to base the restoration on that repaired shell, returning the 791 plate to the Lime Rock tub. The new ASTEC tub became a separate car, later known as X91. The private US-collector entrusted the rebuild of 791 to Lanzante Motorsport, led by Dean Lanzante. With original drawings and surviving body bucks included in the sale, much of what was required was already on hand; uprights and suspension came from period stock, and a gearbox was assembled from available components. A new Cosworth HB engine was sourced to complete the drivetrain. Once Lanzante had the repaired monocoque built up as a rolling chassis, the project moved to Retrac Composites in Swindon. Under Jonathan “Wingnut” Greaves, Retrac used surviving tooling and reverse‑engineered X91 to recreate the crashbox, sidepods and bodywork necessary to finish 791. The restoration work is recorded as taking place in 2010–2011. During this period, X91 made its public debut at the 2010 Goodwood Festival of Speed, while both X91 and the rebuilt 791 were photographed together at Lanzante’s workshops in mid‑2011, by which time the 791 chassis plate had been returned to the original Lime Rock monocoque. 791’s only subsequent public appearance noted in the dossier is at Portugal’s Portimão circuit for the Algarve Historic Festival in October 2011, where it was present but did not participate on track. 791 was later sold to Scottish collector Larry Kinch. A key strength of this example is the depth of research supporting its identity. Conflicting accounts of the XJR‑14s’ 1992 IMSA histories, based on uncorroborated recollections that asserted different chassis were destroyed or converted, had filtered into various reference websites. Historian Leslie Thurston’s earlier work, produced with support from the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust and cross‑checked against Jaguar’s in‑house XJR Review, reached different conclusions about which car crashed where and which tub later underpinned the Porsche WSC‑95. Allen Brown’s dedicated dossier on chassis 791 methodically reconciles those narratives through period photography and physical inspection. The pattern of front‑left damage seen on the Lime Rock wreck matches the repair visible on today’s 791 monocoque, while the Road America accident aligns with repairs on Gareth Evans’s chassis 591. Brown concludes in his Statement of Authenticity that the car described in the dossier is indeed chassis 791, retaining the original monocoque that was heavily damaged at Lime Rock. His findings have been accepted by other noted XJR‑14 researchers and are reflected in their subsequent revisions. Within the small universe of modern sports‑prototype collectors, XJR‑14 chassis 791 sits at a meaningful intersection of competition pedigree, technical interest and documentation. It is one of only three built, directly tied to Jaguar’s 1991 World Sportscar Championship title, and the car that delivered both a Nürburgring 1000 km victory for Warwick and Brabham and a dominant IMSA win at Road Atlanta for Davy Jones. Its post‑period life has been shaped by serious, well‑documented work from Lanzante and Retrac, and by careful historical scrutiny that clarifies its identity and structural continuity. Presented today through Mouse Motors, XJR‑14 chassis 791 is offered not just as a significant Silk Cut Jaguar, but as a fully contextualized competition car with its development, race use, accident, repair and restoration all laid out in a detailed contemporary record. 1991 Jaguar XJR-14 Mouse Motors LLC If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright In the final years of Group C, as regulations shifted toward 3.5‑litre, Formula 1–style engines, few cars captured the new direction as clearly as the Jaguar XJR‑14. Conceived by Tom Walkinshaw Racing as a clean break from Jaguar’s successful V12 prototypes, it combined an F1‑grade monocoque with a fully enclosed sports‑prototype body and a Jaguar‑badged Cosworth HB V8. Only three were built, each finished in Silk Cut’s two‑tone purple and driven by a frontline roster including Derek Warwick, Teo Fabi, Martin Brundle and David Brabham. The car offered here, Jaguar XJR‑14 chassis 791, is the third of those three works cars. It was introduced mid‑season in 1991 and immediately delivered, winning on its debut at the Nürburgring 1000 km in the hands of Warwick and Brabham. The same chassis would later be sent to the United States for IMSA duty, where Davy Jones drove it to victory at Road Atlanta in 1992 before a major accident at Lime Rock ended its frontline competition career. To understand why 791 matters, it is worth tracing the trajectory that produced it. Tom Walkinshaw’s relationship with Jaguar began in touring cars, where TWR‑run XJSs won the European Touring Car Championship in 1984. When Jaguar returned to sports‑car racing in 1985, TWR managed the Group C program using Tony Southgate–designed V12 prototypes that delivered World Sportscar Championship titles in 1987 and 1988 and Le Mans victories in 1988 and 1990. For 1991, the FIA’s move to 3.5‑litre, naturally aspirated engines and lower minimum weights demanded an entirely different approach. TWR brought in Ross Brawn from Arrows F1 to design a new car unrelated to the outgoing V12s. The resulting XJR‑14 was, in effect, a Formula 1 monocoque clothed as a Group C car, powered by a Jaguar‑badged version of Ford’s then‑current Cosworth HB V8, at that time otherwise reserved for Benetton in F1. Entry and exit were via the rear, with no conventional doors, underlining how far the car had moved from traditional endurance‑racing practice. 17DSC_3629-1991 Jaguar XJR-14 Silk Cut Webres-.jpg Three XJR‑14s were constructed: chassis 591, 691 and 791. Warwick and Brundle opened the 1991 World Sportscar Championship in 591, while Fabi and Brundle raced 691; between them they took wins at Monza and Silverstone after early setbacks at Suzuka. When the series resumed after Le Mans, Warwick received a new car, 791, with Brabham as his teammate and 591 relegated to spare‑car status. At the Nürburgring in August 1991, Fabi put 691 on pole, but Warwick and Brabham qualified alongside and led a Jaguar 1‑2 to the flag in 791. They followed that with fifth at Magny‑Cours and sixth at Mexico City, where delays and a problematic weekend for the team compromised results. For the final World Championship round at Autopolis, Warwick reverted to 591, but 791 remained in use; a week later, in the Japanese series round at Sugo, it was entrusted to regular Jaguar drivers Mauro Martini and Jeff Krosnoff, who finished ninth. In its short 1991 season, 791 thus contributed directly to Jaguar’s successful title campaign. By the end of that year, however, Jaguar’s finances were under pressure. Heavy investment from new owner Ford was required just to keep the company afloat, and the global race program could no longer be justified. The World Championship effort was dropped after 1991, but IMSA GTP continued for one more season, with 791 sent to the United States as the lead car expected to contend for the title. Despite running in essentially World Championship specification, the XJR‑14 was immediately on pace in America. Davy Jones took pole at the opening Miami street race, but a spin and non‑restart ended the day early. He then dominated at Road Atlanta, taking pole, fastest lap and leading from start to finish in 791. At Lime Rock, a broken wheel in a downhill section sent the car heavily into the tyre barriers; the monocoque suffered severe damage to its front‑left corner and was returned to the UK for repair. TWR switched Jones to chassis 691 (renumbered 192) for the balance of the season, and 791 did not race again. TWR’s composite subsidiary ASTEC repaired the damaged tub soon after the accident, but the car was never rebuilt into a running state before TWR’s closure in 2003.

  • 1942 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport

    Few automobiles rival the elegance and racing lineage of the Alfa Romeo 6C 2500. The 6C 2500 became one of the most expensive and refined cars of its era, attracting a worldwide celebrity clientele. When it debuted in 1939 as the third series of Vittorio Jano’s legendary six-cylinder Alfa’s, the engineers involved could never have imagined that it would signal the end of the line for hand-built Alfa Romeos. Thanks to engine upgrades and a vastly improved fuel delivery system, the 6C 2500 was the first road going Alfa Romeo capable of 160 km/h. Additionally, it benefited from four-wheel independent suspension, with parallel trailing arms and coil springs in the front and swing axles with torsion bars at the rear. The 6C 2500 was immediately met with praise and success from its hand-selected upscale clientele. Alfa Romeo was, of course, still in the business of providing rolling chassis to custom coachbuilders, even as the onset of war loomed. By order of Mussolini, Carrozzeria Touring had to change its name to ‘Turinga’ during the Second World War, making it one of the rarest Alfa Romeo’s ever. A very small number of Touring’s cars were badged ’Turinga’. Only five 6C 2500 Sport Cabriolets were built, of which we now proudly handled two examples. These cars are amazingly easy to drive with light steering and powerful brakes. The engine offers sufficient punch and the gear change is remarkably easy. Driving is very modern with 120-130 km/h all day long. The Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport is a masterclass from ‘Stabilimenti Turinga’ and is as pretty as a car can be. The long and elegant front fenders literally illustrates a bridge between Pre-and Post War design. This car is one of 4 cars out of the 5 which were immediately delivered to the German officers in Italy. The responsible Wehrmacht army Kolonel who took delivery was a man named Von Carnap. After the war the car was abandoned by the Germans and the Americans probably took this car with them.. The car’s next known whereabouts are in 1960, in the state of Texas in the hands of a man named Donald Vesley. Mr. Vesley sold the car in 1974, and it passed through the hands of several owners before being acquired by a collector named Paul Myers in 1989. Myers had the car restored in the early 1990s by Phil Reilly & Co., with bodywork performed by Moal Coachworks, both extremely well-regarded shops that consistently prepare show-winning cars of the highest caliber. Indeed, the car did very well when shown, winning the CCCA Senior National First Prize in the Primary Division at the Spring Grand Classic in 1999, Most Elegant Sports Car at Amelia Island in 2005, and Best in Class at the Greenwich Concours in 2008, an impressive feat for a restoration nearly 20 years old. During Myers’ ownership, the car was displayed at “The Candy Store” a sort of clubhouse for local enthusiasts of high caliber collector cars to store and display their cars in the San Francisco Bay Area. In 2013 the car was sold to Europe and the owner decided to return the car to original blue. The car received new paintwork at a well known restoration shop and a correct new interior and hood. Mechanically the car was serviced and repaired where necessary. The car was then invited to the exclusive concours in Kyoto Japan. In 2023 the body was superbly repainted to concours standard and prepared by a well known restoration shop in Holland at quite some expense. Today the car is in very nice restored condition and will be a centre piece of any important car collection and a joy to drive. This is a great opportunity to acquire a car which is highly eligible for the best events worldwide, including the famous Mille Miglia. 1942 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport Very Superior Old Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
