  • 1987 Ferrari 328

    Highlights: Excellent condition Clean CarFax Desirable color combination Custom interior Upgraded stereo system Technical Specifications: 3.2-liter DOHC V8 270 horsepower 5-speed manual transmission with gated shifter 92.5 inch-wheelbase The Ferrari 328 is still considered one of the most reliable classic Ferraris available. One reason is most of the service work can be performed without removing the engine from the car, a definite desirable factor when looking to keep maintenance costs down. The 328 is a direct descendant of the 308 and still shares many of the same designs in appearance. It was a perennial favorite automobile poster in the 1980s. Black Horse Garage is proud to represent this 1987 Ferrari 328 GTS. This 328 stands out from the rest of the 328 pack with its unique color combination. The black paint is in excellent condition and the interior is a stunning custom job of terracotta leather seats, center console and door panels. The dash is covered in black leather and the tan carpets were also replaced during the cosmetic makeover. It has been cared for well through the years and it has just over 53,000 miles on it. The 328 GTS is powered by a mid-mounted 3.2-liter V8 engine that produces 270 horsepower. It is driven by a 5-speed manual transmission with a dog-leg gated shifter. This 328 last had its major service in 2016, so it is due for one, but because the engine does not need to be removed on this model, maintenance costs will not be as high as other models. This Ferrari GTS had a significant stereo upgrade which is better to be heard than seen. The sound system is hidden in the car so as not to distract from the other Ferrari looks. Sound deadening material was also used underneath. 1987 Ferrari 328 JamesEdition B.V. If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1964 Iso Rivolta A3/C Sanction II

    The Grifo is perhaps one of the most stunning, attractive, and desirable takes on what would eventually become a proven formula: a European chassis and body coupled with the robust and inexpensive performance provided by an American V8. The Grifo’s chassis and mechanical integration were also major contributors to the overall appeal of the car. Developed in large part by Giotto Bizzarrini, in tandem with the Grifo’s competition version (which would eventually become the Bizzarrini 5300), the chassis was sophisticated with coil springs all round, de Dion rear end, and tubular chassis, and inboard rear disc brakes. The engines were supplied by Chevrolet, but were disassembled and blue printed before installation in the Grifo. Giotto Bizzarrini built his own version of the Grifo for racing, winning the big-bore GT class at Le Mans in 1964 and 1965. The Bizzarrini GTs were developed as race cars and the two marques, Iso and Bizzarrini, coexisted. Iso built road Grifos while Bizzarrini built racing Grifos. Fitted with more rakish and exotic bodywork, the Bizzarrini 5300GT is rare, exotic and aerodynamic. Early competition cars were designated Grifo A3/C prior to being separately identified as Bizzarrini 5300s. After Piero Rivolta gave his approval to name them officially ISO Grifo Rivolta and to wear the official emblem, a total of 10 cars were made by Bottegone in Clusone, BG – Italy, by the former employees who used to work in the Iso Rivolta factory. The cars were built as per original factory construction drawings and specifications. The body, an all-aluminum masterpiece are hand crafted exactly the same way as the ones built during 1963/64. Ordered in 2014 and supplied to its current and only owner in 2018, chassis IR*350123* is one of the 10 original Sanction II using an original Iso Rivolta chassis from a donor car as well as a 1964 registration title. The quality of the workmanship is first rate throughout and the car’s competition details are beautifully rendered from the external rivets to the large cooling vents and quick release fuel filler that operates through the rear window. Historians and enthusiasts of the Grifo and Bizzarrini 5300 are well aware that these cars were built in fits and starts over the years as parts became available to various enterprising individuals, and therefore there are often multiple claims to serial numbers and confusing trails of construction and ownership history. Faced with spending seven figures on a car of dubious history, the benefit of the Sanction II is very simple: You know exactly what you are buying for a fraction of the price! Available immediately.

  • 1969 Jensen FF Series 1

    Introduced in 1966, the Jensen FF was the first non all-terrain production vehicle to feature both four-wheel drive and an anti-lock braking system (ABS). Prior to this, the Dunlop Maxaret mechanical ABS was utilised solely on aircraft, lorries, and racing cars. Recognising the competitive edge ABS provided to racing cars, Jensen decided it was essential to incorporate this technology into road vehicles. Named the FF for its pioneering four-wheel drive system (FF stands for Ferguson Formula, developed at Ferguson Research Limited), the vehicle is powered by a formidable Chrysler 6.3-litre V8 engine, generating around 330bhp fed through the TorqueFlite automatic transmission. This powerful engine ensures that the car's performance matches its impressive appearance. MMA 40H, Chassis number #119 165, is one of just 195 Series 1 cars produced (Chassis prefix 119) and was delivered to its first owner during the summer of 1969. It was to remain in that ownership for over 30 years, although it was initially registered as a company vehicle for Auto Masters Ltd, an engineering firm in Hyde. In 2000, it was sold, or likely gifted, to Mr John Marsh, the director whose company car it had been, possibly upon his retirement. He enjoyed the car for an additional four years before selling it in 2004 and a further three owners followed before arriving in the care of our vendor. Originally supplied in white, the car now sports a stunning Royal Flag Blue exterior with a silver roof, a distinctive feature of early Jensens, but retains its original black leather interior and Walnut fascia. The Jensen is accompanied by an extensive and meticulously organised history file, housed in a beautiful green leather-bound ring binder. The file includes invoices totalling over £40,000, along with numerous historic MOT Certificates, tax and insurance documents and copies of older V5Cs that trace the car’s ownership history. There is even an old application form for the Jensen Owners Club featuring the car’s details from Mr Marsh’s membership application. The history file is a true highlight, offering insight into the car's story and the care it has received over the years. After long-term storage, Mr Marsh commissioned a restoration in 1991, with the work completed in 1993 and all fully documented across some 15 pages of invoices. More recently, #165 has been maintained by respected marque experts, Cropredy Bridge Garage, from whom he bought the car. They have continued to look after it as is evidenced by a large collection of invoices showing that no expense has been spared. In summary, this 1969 Jensen FF, with fewer than 71,000 miles on the odometer, represents a significant piece of automotive history, combining groundbreaking technology with timeless design, a rare fusion of Italian styling, an American engine and British craftsmanship. These grand tourers are comfortable and relatively practical, with rear seats and a decent boot. Although an older restoration, the car still presents beautifully and is eminently usable and not so precious that you worry about taking it out. This is a super example and seems very sensibly guided when you consider the rarity and quality on offer. 1969 Jensen FF Series 1 Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1965 Shelby Daytona Coupe

  • 1987 Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500 2

    The original Ford Sierra RS Cosworth was the first Ford to wear the Cosworth badge and was presented to the public at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1985. It was introduced as a means of homologating the Sierra for 'Group A' Touring Car racing, with a requirement that 5,000 cars were built and sold. Launched for sale in July 1986, and based on the three-door Sierra body-shell, it was designed by Ford's Special Vehicle Engineering (SVE) and was powered by a Cosworth-designed 2.0-litre turbo engine of now-legendary repute. At this time, the Sierra Cosworth was a new kind of performance car - a 'blue-collar hero' able to humble true sports cars! In total 5,545 cars were produced - of which 500 were sent to Aston Martin Tickford for conversion to the Sierra 'RS500 Cosworth'. If the RS Cosworth was a homologation car, the RS500 was an evolution special. Once Ford had built the requisite 5,000 RS Cosworths, 'Group A' rules allowed an upgraded 'evolution' model to be launched. This could carry changes focused on improving its racing potential, provided Ford sold 10% of the original number as road cars, hence the 500. The RS500 was announced in July 1987 and had a mechanically uprated Cosworth engine (more similar to the one to be used in competition), with power boosted to 224bhp, modified bodywork and the cachet of being hand-assembled - the RS500 really is the ultimate 1980s Fast Ford! Around 14 years ago, our vendor, a knowledgeable and particularly fastidious enthusiast, decided that he would like to add an RS500 to his Collection. He knew what he wanted but took the precaution of enlisting the help of a friend who was a marque expert. They considered a number of cars, including some lovely examples, but were focused on finding the best RS500 they possibly could. A number of other contenders were rejected until, one day, E378 TKN appeared and was unquestionably 'the one'. Its originality was unmatched, the mileage was nominal (even today it has only covered 5,192 miles) and it had patently been cared for. Although very lightly used during our vendor's tenure, it was regularly serviced and maintained during this period by Tremona Garage of Southampton, a local specialist widely recognised as being hugely knowledgeable when it comes to Fords from the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. They are also known for preparing cars to a Concours standard with much success in the Autoglym Masterclass and others. Who better to entrust with an RS 500 that may well turn out to be the best and most original RS500 to come to market. The attention to the detail of this car's maintenance cannot be understated. Our client has impressively managed to source a supply of rare new/old stock oil filters, fuel filters etc. so, not for this car a modern oil filter of the correct type, but an original orange one that would have been supplied when new. This 'forensic' attention to originality can be illustrated by our vendor's purchase of a set of period RS 500 wheels and tyres in order that TKN's date-stamped originals can be carefully stored and not have to bear the weight of the car for prolonged periods. This diligent approach is typical of our vendor and will explain why this gleaming black RS500 may well be the best you have ever seen. In 2022, Tremona carried out a full re-commissioning service on E378 TKN including the replacement of engine oil and filter, spark plugs, fuel filter, cambelt and a new battery. All parts used are genuine new/old stock parts and are identical to parts fitted at the factory. The engine oil filter is a Fram PH2854, spark plugs are Motorcraft AGPR 901C and a black Weber fuel filter was fitted. All these parts have not been available for many years and have been sourced to maintain the car's originality. As mentioned, the original Dunlop D40s are on the stored wheels, the original Ford exhaust system is still in place, the factory fog lamps remain in the boot awaiting fitting by the dealers and there is a file full of history detailing the car's life. Recently refreshed and with a fresh MOT, E378 TKN will be presented at Race Retro on its original wheels. Silverstone Auctions are proud to have been involved in the sale of many cars at World Record prices, many of them Fords. With 'Fast Fords' seemingly knowing no bounds in their desirability, and this one believed to be the very best example of the ultimate 1980s Fast Ford, we invite and encourage any serious collector to inspect this superb, 5,000-mile Cosworth as its type is unlikely to be found again. 1987 Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500 Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1966-porsche-906-1

    Although incorporating certain lessons learned from the preceding 904 GTS programme, Porsche’s new-for-1966 906 model–officially designated the Carrera 6–was notably divergent in its mechanical composition. Whereas the 904 employed a ladder chassis with a bonded fibreglass body, the 906 used a more conventional multi-tubular frame, clothed in unstressed fibreglass of nominal thickness to minimise weight. Some 65 chassis would be constructed, of which 52 were fitted with 2-litre, six-cylinder carburettor engines, nine equipped with fuel injection and four with experimental 2.2-litre eight-cylinder motors. Significantly, in customer specification, the new car offered a weight reduction of some 200 pounds relative to the outgoing 904. Competition success was immediate, with a 2-litre class win–and sixth overall–achieved on debut in the Daytona 24 Hours, with further class wins forthcoming in the Sebring 12 Hours and at the Monza, Spa, Nürburgring and Paris 1,000 Kilometre races. If, inexplicably, there was any doubt as to the new car’s abilities, then outright victories at the Targa Florio and Circuito del Mugello–not to mention fourth overall and the almost inevitable class win at Le Mans–surely put these to rest. Indeed over the next two seasons, until its replacement with the 910, the 906 became arguably the most accomplished and versatile of all two-litre Sports Racing cars. The car offered here, chassis 906-115, was completed at Zuffenhausen on 9 March 1966, to the order of keen Italian amateur racer and hillclimber Ermanno Spazzapan. Invariably competing under the pseudonym of “Mann”, Spazzapan enjoyed a strong affiliation with Porsche, having previously campaigned both a 356B 2000GS and a 356 Carrera Abarth GTL in Italian domestic events in 1964 and 1965. However, his purchase of 906-115 in the Spring of 1966 represented not only his first known experience of a Sports Prototype, but also a significant step up in terms of performance. As with other customer specification 906s, 906-115 was fitted with a six-cylinder Type-901/20 engine, which employed a sand-cast magnesium elektron crankcase, forged steel crankshaft, titanium connecting rods, forged alloy pistons and dry-sump lubrication. A compression ratio of 10.3:1 afforded a power output of some 210 horsepower at 8,000 rpm, while a five-speed Type-906/1 gearbox transmitted this to the road. “Mann” made his debut in 906-115 at the Stallavena-Boscochiesanuova hillclimb on 17 April, in which he finished second in class in the over-2000cc Sports Racing car class. The remainder of the season encompassed some nine further events–eight hillclimbs and one race–and the pair became a regular sight on the Italian hillclimb scene. The Antignano-Monte Burrone round in June represented the season’s highlight, with an outright win, while the event from Spazzapan’s hometown of Vittorio Veneto, in Treviso, to Consoglio yielded a noteworthy second place overall. Third place finishes were also achieved at Cividale-Castelmonte, Bolzano-Mendola and at the Coppa Alpe del Nevegal, while the season’s sole circuit-based event saw the pair finish second in class at the Coppa Agip at Vallelunga, behind the victorious sister 906 of “Noris”. However, after only a single season of ownership, Spazzapan opted to sell 906-115 to his fellow countryman Ennio Bonomelli in early 1967. The latter would later emerge as something of a Porsche specialist, driving a variety of models including a 908/03, 910 and 911 RSR, and winning the 1968 Italian GT Championship in a 911S, yet it appears that he drove 906-115 on only three occasions, each of which were hillclimbs. Instead, the car was primarily entrusted to Antonio Zadra–occasionally known by his pseudonym of “Khandaru”–and Giuseppe Dalla Torre. The car’s race debut under its new ownership came in a 20-lap Unlimited Sports Car race at Innsbruck in May 1967, although regrettably its finishing position is unknown. Next, however, was the altogether more serious prospect of the 500 kilometres of Mugello; then a round of the World Sportscar Championship. Held on the daunting 66.2 kilometre road circuit, the event attracted no less than 111 entries, including two factory-entered Porsche 910s for Schütz/ Mitter and Neerpasch/ Stommelen, two Scuderia Ferrari 206 Dino Competiziones for Scarfiotti/ Vaccarella and Klass/ Williams, and three Autodelta Alfa Romeo T33s. At the conclusion of the gruelling 8-lap, near four-and-a-half hour race, Schütz and Mitter prevailed–with their 910-mounted teammates second and the Prototype-class Porsche 911R of Elford and van Lennep third. However, “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre drove superbly to finish tenth overall and third in class; beaten only in their category by the similar 906s of Cella/ Biscaldi and Nicodemi/ Facetti. A little over a month later, “Khandaru” drove the car to a fine 14th overall and seventh in class at the Ollon-Villars hillclimb, while the season rounded off at Aspern, in Austria, in early October. There, a high quality entry for the 40-lap Sports Car race included the likes of Dieter Quester and Peter Schetty–in works BMW and Abarth respectively–but “Khandaru” and 906-115 acquitted themselves admirably, finishing ninth overall and third in the 2-litre class. Intriguingly, the 1968 season was scheduled to start with an entry into the Nürburgring 1,000 kilometres–once again with “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre driving–but evidently 906-115 failed to appear. However, in late-June, it contested the Coppa Gallenga at Vallelunga, where “Khandaru” finished a fine third overall and first in class behind the Ferrari 206S Dino of Ferdiando Latteri and the Porsche 910 of Antonio Nicodemi. Disappointingly, a return to the Circuito del Mugello in late July proved frustrating for the car’s customary pilots, ending as it did in an early retirement. Arguably 906-115’s finest hour came in the Imola 500 kilometres, held at the scenic Emilia-Romagna circuit in September 1968. A fine race entry included three privately-entered Porsche 910s–one of which was to be shared by factory driver Vic Elford–and three Autodelta Alfa Romeo T33/2s driven by the all-star team of Vaccarella/Zeccoli, Giunti/Galli and Casoni/Dini. Once again “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre were paired in the car; both drivers and car excelling to finish a fine fourth overall–and first in class–behind the three Alfas. The car’s final contemporary race season concluded in Austria with races on consecutive weekends in Aspern and Innsbruck, in early October. Ranged against some of the most respected Sportscar drivers of the day–including Merzario, Marko and Hezemans–Zadra finished a respectable ninth, and third in class, in Aspern and seventh–fifth in the 2-litre class–in Innsbruck. The rapidly changing Sports Prototype landscape of the late 1960s–and in particular the increasingly important role of aerodynamics–rendered both the 906 and many of its Group 4 contemporaries increasingly uncompetitive in International Sportscar racing. However, the 1970s saw burgeoning interest in newly-designated “Historic” racing cars and, against this backdrop, 906-115 was subsequently located and purchased by Bergamo-based enthusiast and broker Corrado Cupellini. Having retained ownership for several years, Cupellini sold 906-115 to German Porsche luminary Bernd Becker in 1977; the car representing a fitting stablemate for the latter’s ex-Ben Pon 910. Becker would retain 906-115 for almost a quarter of a century, regularly racing the car throughout Europe and, on occasions, in South Africa, until its sale to German-based brokers PS Automobile in 2001. In their custody, 906-115 was subjected to a comprehensive rebuild; the retention of its original GRP panels, engine and gearbox all being noted at this time. Duly completed and returned to its original colour of Grand Prix White, 906-115 reappeared in the 2002 Tour Auto, before being sold to Frenchman Alain Salat in 2004. In his custody, the car contested the Tour Auto again, prior to its acquisition by an anonymous French collector in 2007, and subsequent purchase by Swiss-based collector Carlo Perego in 2014. The latter retained the car for some seven years, before selling it to the most recent previous owner in 2020. In his custody, 906-115 has been fastidiously maintained by marque experts Road Scholars of Durham, NC, at a cost of over $60,000. This has included–but is not restricted to–rebuilds of the carburettors and steering rack, the replacement of the rear crankshaft oil seal, clutch and front suspension ball joints, and the performance of general engine calibration work. Remarkably, in September 2020, the car joined 906-109, 906-110 and 906-158 for a memorable 300-mile road trip between Vail and Aspen, Colorado; the dramatic scenery of the Rockies providing an appropriately Alpine context in which to celebrate 906-115’s formative years. With the current owner, the car’s original windscreen was replaced due to a crack, but has been retained for safe keeping. Highly accomplished, reassuringly uncomplicated and commendably practical, the Porsche 906 remains one of the greatest of all competitive all-rounders–not to mention perhaps the supreme giant-killer. Furthermore, its sheer versatility renders it ideally suited to–and highly eligible for–some of the world’s greatest historic events. In the case of 906-115, these attributes are further supplemented by its fascinating competition history and truly extraordinary originality. Indeed, the latter is confirmed by the retention of both its original engine and gearbox–serial numbers 906-113 and 906-110 respectively–as at the time of cataloguing, despite the passage of almost six decades, and a fascinatingly varied competition career. 1966 Porsche 906 RM Sotheby's 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 Although incorporating certain lessons learned from the preceding 904 GTS programme, Porsche’s new-for-1966 906 model–officially designated the Carrera 6–was notably divergent in its mechanical composition. Whereas the 904 employed a ladder chassis with a bonded fibreglass body, the 906 used a more conventional multi-tubular frame, clothed in unstressed fibreglass of nominal thickness to minimise weight. Some 65 chassis would be constructed, of which 52 were fitted with 2-litre, six-cylinder carburettor engines, nine equipped with fuel injection and four with experimental 2.2-litre eight-cylinder motors. Significantly, in customer specification, the new car offered a weight reduction of some 200 pounds relative to the outgoing 904. Competition success was immediate, with a 2-litre class win–and sixth overall–achieved on debut in the Daytona 24 Hours, with further class wins forthcoming in the Sebring 12 Hours and at the Monza, Spa, Nürburgring and Paris 1,000 Kilometre races. If, inexplicably, there was any doubt as to the new car’s abilities, then outright victories at the Targa Florio and Circuito del Mugello–not to mention fourth overall and the almost inevitable class win at Le Mans–surely put these to rest. Indeed over the next two seasons, until its replacement with the 910, the 906 became arguably the most accomplished and versatile of all two-litre Sports Racing cars. The car offered here, chassis 906-115, was completed at Zuffenhausen on 9 March 1966, to the order of keen Italian amateur racer and hillclimber Ermanno Spazzapan. Invariably competing under the pseudonym of “Mann”, Spazzapan enjoyed a strong affiliation with Porsche, having previously campaigned both a 356B 2000GS and a 356 Carrera Abarth GTL in Italian domestic events in 1964 and 1965. However, his purchase of 906-115 in the Spring of 1966 represented not only his first known experience of a Sports Prototype, but also a significant step up in terms of performance. As with other customer specification 906s, 906-115 was fitted with a six-cylinder Type-901/20 engine, which employed a sand-cast magnesium elektron crankcase, forged steel crankshaft, titanium connecting rods, forged alloy pistons and dry-sump lubrication. A compression ratio of 10.3:1 afforded a power output of some 210 horsepower at 8,000 rpm, while a five-speed Type-906/1 gearbox transmitted this to the road. “Mann” made his debut in 906-115 at the Stallavena-Boscochiesanuova hillclimb on 17 April, in which he finished second in class in the over-2000cc Sports Racing car class. The remainder of the season encompassed some nine further events–eight hillclimbs and one race–and the pair became a regular sight on the Italian hillclimb scene. The Antignano-Monte Burrone round in June represented the season’s highlight, with an outright win, while the event from Spazzapan’s hometown of Vittorio Veneto, in Treviso, to Consoglio yielded a noteworthy second place overall. Third place finishes were also achieved at Cividale-Castelmonte, Bolzano-Mendola and at the Coppa Alpe del Nevegal, while the season’s sole circuit-based event saw the pair finish second in class at the Coppa Agip at Vallelunga, behind the victorious sister 906 of “Noris”. However, after only a single season of ownership, Spazzapan opted to sell 906-115 to his fellow countryman Ennio Bonomelli in early 1967. The latter would later emerge as something of a Porsche specialist, driving a variety of models including a 908/03, 910 and 911 RSR, and winning the 1968 Italian GT Championship in a 911S, yet it appears that he drove 906-115 on only three occasions, each of which were hillclimbs. Instead, the car was primarily entrusted to Antonio Zadra–occasionally known by his pseudonym of “Khandaru”–and Giuseppe Dalla Torre. The car’s race debut under its new ownership came in a 20-lap Unlimited Sports Car race at Innsbruck in May 1967, although regrettably its finishing position is unknown. Next, however, was the altogether more serious prospect of the 500 kilometres of Mugello; then a round of the World Sportscar Championship. Held on the daunting 66.2 kilometre road circuit, the event attracted no less than 111 entries, including two factory-entered Porsche 910s for Schütz/ Mitter and Neerpasch/ Stommelen, two Scuderia Ferrari 206 Dino Competiziones for Scarfiotti/ Vaccarella and Klass/ Williams, and three Autodelta Alfa Romeo T33s. At the conclusion of the gruelling 8-lap, near four-and-a-half hour race, Schütz and Mitter prevailed–with their 910-mounted teammates second and the Prototype-class Porsche 911R of Elford and van Lennep third. However, “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre drove superbly to finish tenth overall and third in class; beaten only in their category by the similar 906s of Cella/ Biscaldi and Nicodemi/ Facetti. A little over a month later, “Khandaru” drove the car to a fine 14th overall and seventh in class at the Ollon-Villars hillclimb, while the season rounded off at Aspern, in Austria, in early October. There, a high quality entry for the 40-lap Sports Car race included the likes of Dieter Quester and Peter Schetty–in works BMW and Abarth respectively–but “Khandaru” and 906-115 acquitted themselves admirably, finishing ninth overall and third in the 2-litre class. Intriguingly, the 1968 season was scheduled to start with an entry into the Nürburgring 1,000 kilometres–once again with “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre driving–but evidently 906-115 failed to appear. However, in late-June, it contested the Coppa Gallenga at Vallelunga, where “Khandaru” finished a fine third overall and first in class behind the Ferrari 206S Dino of Ferdiando Latteri and the Porsche 910 of Antonio Nicodemi. Disappointingly, a return to the Circuito del Mugello in late July proved frustrating for the car’s customary pilots, ending as it did in an early retirement. Arguably 906-115’s finest hour came in the Imola 500 kilometres, held at the scenic Emilia-Romagna circuit in September 1968. A fine race entry included three privately-entered Porsche 910s–one of which was to be shared by factory driver Vic Elford–and three Autodelta Alfa Romeo T33/2s driven by the all-star team of Vaccarella/Zeccoli, Giunti/Galli and Casoni/Dini. Once again “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre were paired in the car; both drivers and car excelling to finish a fine fourth overall–and first in class–behind the three Alfas.

  • 1953 Ferrari 375 MM Pinin Farina Spider

    Pinin Farina’s first open competition Ferrari The hips don’t lie. Those round, voluptuous curves aft the cockpit are where your eyes are first drawn when presented with the arresting Ferrari 375 MM Spider, bodied by Pinin Farina in Turin. It was the historic coachbuilder’s first interpretation of an open competition Ferrari. And, heavens above, didn’t it do a great job? Introduced in 1953 as a means of keeping the mighty Mercedes-Benz 300 SLRs at bay, the 375 MM built on the success of the Mille Miglia-winning 340 models, Ferrari’s first production car to be powered by Aurelio Lampredi’s powerful long-block V12. The engine was enlarged to 4.5 litres in the 375 MM, raising power to a heady 340bhp. These ‘big-banger’ Lampredi-powered Ferraris really were the fastest cars on the road at the time, spearheading Ferrari’s assaults on all the greatest endurance races. And coupled with the efforts of Luigi Chinetti, who’d begun selling Ferraris across North America for the first time, the Prancing Horse was fast establishing itself as a purveyor of the world’s most exquisite motor cars. These ‘big-banger’ Lampredi-powered Ferraris really were the fastest cars on the road at the time, spearheading Ferrari’s assaults on all the greatest endurance races A mere 26 Ferrari 375 MMs were built, clothed in a number of striking different bodies, predominantly by Pinin Farina, though also by Vignale, Scaglietti and Ghia. Chassis no. 0360 AM As early Christmas presents go, we’re sure you’ll agree that a 1950s ‘big-banger’ 12-cylinder Ferrari would take some beating. The Italian mineral-water magnate, keen amateur racing driver and loyal Ferrari pilgrim Piero Scotti treated himself to such a gift in December of 1953. Among Il Commendatore’s most significant early customers, he acquired this Rosso Corsa Ferrari 375 MM Pinin Farina Spider, the very first built – chassis number 0360 AM, directly from the factory. But rather than parking it beside the tree and waiting patiently for Christmas day, he decided to ship the car directly to Morocco, North Africa, and enter the 12 Hours of Casablanca. Entered under the Scuderia Ferrari banner and run with considerable support from the factory, chassis number 0360 AM was assigned the race number two. Given the factory’s involvement, Scotti was partnered with successful Works driver Giuseppe ‘Nino’ Farina, who’d famously won the inaugural Formula 1 World Championship for Drivers in 1950, racing for Alfa Romeo. Beneath the fierce Moroccan sun and against strong opposition from Jaguar, Aston Martin and Talbot, the Scotti/Farina 4.5-litre Ferrari quickly emerged as the class of the field. “Nothing could stop Farina and Scotti in the Ferrari, which went round and round with relentless speed and efficiency,” was how Autosport reported on chassis number 0360 AM’s performance. Sure enough, as the sun set and the chequered flag dropped, Scotti and Farina led the second-place Ferrari of Luigi Villoresi and Alberto Ascari home by some 40 kilometres. A memorable Christmas for Piero Scotti indeed. The 340 MM remained in Africa into 1954, Scotti entering the Agadir Grand Prix in February and the Senegal Grand Prix in March, the latter of which he dominated to win. Upon returning the car to Europe in the spring, Scotti notched up another win on chassis 0360 AM’s record: this time the Coppa della Toscana. And he continued to compete for the remainder of the year, with a handful of further domestic victories. The strong performance of this 375 MM was clearly recognised in Maranello, for Scotti and the car featured in the 1954 Ferrari Yearbook. “In a field of 475 starters, Scotti had fought his way inside the top 10 by quarter-distance at Ravenna. And he continued to climb, reaching third position overall by Florence.” In a bid to better his incredible second-place finish in the 1951 Mille Miglia, Scotti contested both the 1954 and 1955 editions of the world-famous Italian road race with chassis 0360 AM. The mid-1950s was truly the heyday for the Mille Miglia, which snaked its way from Brescia down to Rome and back and attracted the world’s biggest manufacturers and their squadrons of star drivers. The motorsport world mourned Tazio Nuvolari in 1953, which prompted the Mille Miglia organisers to tweak the race route in order to encompass the Italian great’s hometown of Mantua. Incidentally, this notched the overall mileage to exactly 1,000 miles, as per the race’s name. There was also a significant change to the rules allowing a single driver to contest the entire race, rather than the traditional team of two. Context is useful at this point. Upwards of 11 hours solo driving, day and night, flat-out across an entire country, solely on public roads lined with hundreds of thousands of unobstructed spectators. Ludicrous. With crucial experience in the race and his new 4.5-litre Ferrari in rude health, Scotti must have fancied his chances for the 1954 Mille Miglia. Part of the Works Ferrari assault, Scotti opted to capitalise on the rule change and ‘go it alone’. And, by all accounts, he made a searing start. In a field of 475 starters, Scotti had fought his way inside the top 10 by quarter-distance at Ravenna. And he continued to climb. Rome marked the halfway point, some 540 miles into the race, and Scotti was sandwiched between two Works Maseratis in eighth position. As Marzotto’s Ferrari retired with gearbox trouble, Scotti was able to edge the number 546 375 MM up to third position by Florence. Alas, no sooner than a podium finish had been thrust into the realms of possibility, than it was cruelly snatched away. Scotti retired in the Apennines before Bologna – agonisingly close to the finish. What could have been… The Mille Miglia in 1955, of course, witnessed the momentous record-breaking victory of Stirling Moss and Denis Jenkinson in the Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR. It was to be Piero Scotti’s final attempt at finally winning the ‘world’s most beautiful motor race’, once again with his trusty 375 MM. With the staggering rate of technological development in the mid-1950s, chassis 0360 AM simply no longer remained competitive. The Mille Miglia would evade Scotti for the rest of his days. As this Ferrari was honourably retired after its remarkably successful competition career, so the car found its way across the Atlantic, passing through the hands of a small number of American owners until 1981, when it was acquired by the Pennsylvania trucking tycoon Len Rusiewicz. Painstakingly, over the course of the next 15 years and with the wholehearted support of his family, Rusiewicz returned what was a tired and forgotten but remarkably original Ferrari racer to its former glory. The long and exhaustive project complete, Rusiewicz did exactly what we would have done and showed it proudly to the world. Between 1996 and 2004, 0360 AM starred at a plethora of prestigious North American concours, including the 12th Annual Reading Concours d’Elegance, where it was awarded ‘Best of Show’, and the Ferrari Club of America National Concours, where it was the recipient of the ‘Forza Ferrari’ award. This 375 MM was also profiled in an in-depth feature in a 1997 issue of Cavallino, a copy of which accompanies the car. “Between 1996 and 2004, 0360 AM starred at a plethora of prestigious North American concours, including the 12th Annual Reading Concours d’Elegance, where it was awarded ‘Best of Show’.” After almost 25 years, Rusiewicz reluctantly parted with chassis 0360 AM in December of 2004. The car was bought by the Brescia-based Ferrari collector Emilio ‘Chico’ Gnutti, who promptly commissioned a comprehensive restoration. Ferrari Classiche’s preferred coachbuilder, Carrozzeria Quality Cars near Padua, was chosen to restore the stunning Pinin Farina bodywork, chassis and interior, while the mechanical components were entrusted to Brescia Autoracing, which is now known as Brixia Motor Classic. From the outset, the onus was on originality and authenticity. The body, for example, is now indistinguishable from that in the photos of the car contesting the 1954 Mille Miglia with Piero Scotti – a tribute to the artisanal craftsmanship of Quality Cars’ ingegneri. Gnutti enjoyed almost a decade with chassis number 0360 AM, exhibiting the car in the ultra-prestigious Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este and, satisfyingly, contesting the Mille Miglia Storico – over 60 years after it took to the starting ramp of the original version of the legendary Italian road race. This 375 MM’s final – and current – owner, a prominent American Ferrari collector with a world-class stable of road and competition Prancing Horses, assumed custody in 2013. It has not been seen in public since. These commandingly powerful ‘big-banger’ 1950s Ferraris are, understandably, extremely desirable today. And it’s frankly easy to appreciate why, given their heady combination of rarity, desperate beauty, dizzying performance and immense period competition success, earned in the hands of the era’s greatest pilots. This 375 MM Spider Pinin Farina, the very first of a mere 15 built, exemplifies this appeal to a tee. Firstly there’s chassis number 0360 AM’s successful period competition history while in Piero Scotti’s ownership, crowned by two Mille Miglia entries and that stunning victory in the 12 Hours of Casablanca – earned with the help of the factory and, of course, the former Formula 1 World Champion ‘Nino’ Farina. Then there’s its entirely clear and comprehensive history, as verified by the leading Ferrari historian Marcel Massini in his accompanying report and, of course, Ferrari Classiche in its accompanying certification binder. Three owners in the last 43 years should prove music to many collectors’ ears. Crucially, this history supports the remarkable originality of this 375 MM. For us here at Girardo & Co., these attributes pale in comparison to the sheer grace and presence of this stunning Spider. The Pinin Farina-bodied 375 MM Spider is one of those cars that arrests your attention and holds it ransom from reality. It treads a fine line between masculine and feminine, with those not-so-subtle hints of its enormous power melded with those sultry and traditional Pinin Farina design cues. Chassis 0360 AM is nothing short of a masterpiece, worthy of a prime spot in Paris’s Louvre, Los Angeles’ Getty or New York’s Metropolitan. 1953 Ferrari 375 MM Pinin Farina Spider Girardo & Co.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright Pinin Farina’s first open competition Ferrari The hips don’t lie. Those round, voluptuous curves aft the cockpit are where your eyes are first drawn when presented with the arresting Ferrari 375 MM Spider, bodied by Pinin Farina in Turin. It was the historic coachbuilder’s first interpretation of an open competition Ferrari. And, heavens above, didn’t it do a great job? Introduced in 1953 as a means of keeping the mighty Mercedes-Benz 300 SLRs at bay, the 375 MM built on the success of the Mille Miglia-winning 340 models, Ferrari’s first production car to be powered by Aurelio Lampredi’s powerful long-block V12. The engine was enlarged to 4.5 litres in the 375 MM, raising power to a heady 340bhp. These ‘big-banger’ Lampredi-powered Ferraris really were the fastest cars on the road at the time, spearheading Ferrari’s assaults on all the greatest endurance races. And coupled with the efforts of Luigi Chinetti, who’d begun selling Ferraris across North America for the first time, the Prancing Horse was fast establishing itself as a purveyor of the world’s most exquisite motor cars. These ‘big-banger’ Lampredi-powered Ferraris really were the fastest cars on the road at the time, spearheading Ferrari’s assaults on all the greatest endurance races A mere 26 Ferrari 375 MMs were built, clothed in a number of striking different bodies, predominantly by Pinin Farina, though also by Vignale, Scaglietti and Ghia. Chassis no. 0360 AM As early Christmas presents go, we’re sure you’ll agree that a 1950s ‘big-banger’ 12-cylinder Ferrari would take some beating. The Italian mineral-water magnate, keen amateur racing driver and loyal Ferrari pilgrim Piero Scotti treated himself to such a gift in December of 1953. Among Il Commendatore’s most significant early customers, he acquired this Rosso Corsa Ferrari 375 MM Pinin Farina Spider, the very first built – chassis number 0360 AM, directly from the factory. But rather than parking it beside the tree and waiting patiently for Christmas day, he decided to ship the car directly to Morocco, North Africa, and enter the 12 Hours of Casablanca. Entered under the Scuderia Ferrari banner and run with considerable support from the factory, chassis number 0360 AM was assigned the race number two. Given the factory’s involvement, Scotti was partnered with successful Works driver Giuseppe ‘Nino’ Farina, who’d famously won the inaugural Formula 1 World Championship for Drivers in 1950, racing for Alfa Romeo. Beneath the fierce Moroccan sun and against strong opposition from Jaguar, Aston Martin and Talbot, the Scotti/Farina 4.5-litre Ferrari quickly emerged as the class of the field. “Nothing could stop Farina and Scotti in the Ferrari, which went round and round with relentless speed and efficiency,” was how Autosport reported on chassis number 0360 AM’s performance. Sure enough, as the sun set and the chequered flag dropped, Scotti and Farina led the second-place Ferrari of Luigi Villoresi and Alberto Ascari home by some 40 kilometres. A memorable Christmas for Piero Scotti indeed. The 340 MM remained in Africa into 1954, Scotti entering the Agadir Grand Prix in February and the Senegal Grand Prix in March, the latter of which he dominated to win. Upon returning the car to Europe in the spring, Scotti notched up another win on chassis 0360 AM’s record: this time the Coppa della Toscana. And he continued to compete for the remainder of the year, with a handful of further domestic victories. The strong performance of this 375 MM was clearly recognised in Maranello, for Scotti and the car featured in the 1954 Ferrari Yearbook. “In a field of 475 starters, Scotti had fought his way inside the top 10 by quarter-distance at Ravenna. And he continued to climb, reaching third position overall by Florence.” In a bid to better his incredible second-place finish in the 1951 Mille Miglia, Scotti contested both the 1954 and 1955 editions of the world-famous Italian road race with chassis 0360 AM. The mid-1950s was truly the heyday for the Mille Miglia, which snaked its way from Brescia down to Rome and back and attracted the world’s biggest manufacturers and their squadrons of star drivers. The motorsport world mourned Tazio Nuvolari in 1953, which prompted the Mille Miglia organisers to tweak the race route in order to encompass the Italian great’s hometown of Mantua. Incidentally, this notched the overall mileage to exactly 1,000 miles, as per the race’s name. There was also a significant change to the rules allowing a single driver to contest the entire race, rather than the traditional team of two. Context is useful at this point. Upwards of 11 hours solo driving, day and night, flat-out across an entire country, solely on public roads lined with hundreds of thousands of unobstructed spectators. Ludicrous. With crucial experience in the race and his new 4.5-litre Ferrari in rude health, Scotti must have fancied his chances for the 1954 Mille Miglia. Part of the Works Ferrari assault, Scotti opted to capitalise on the rule change and ‘go it alone’. And, by all accounts, he made a searing start. In a field of 475 starters, Scotti had fought his way inside the top 10 by quarter-distance at Ravenna. And he continued to climb. Rome marked the halfway point, some 540 miles into the race, and Scotti was sandwiched between two Works Maseratis in eighth position. As Marzotto’s Ferrari retired with gearbox trouble, Scotti was able to edge the number 546 375 MM up to third position by Florence. Alas, no sooner than a podium finish had been thrust into the realms of possibility, than it was cruelly snatched away. Scotti retired in the Apennines before Bologna – agonisingly close to the finish. What could have been… The Mille Miglia in 1955, of course, witnessed the momentous record-breaking victory of Stirling Moss and Denis Jenkinson in the Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR. It was to be Piero Scotti’s final attempt at finally winning the ‘world’s most beautiful motor race’, once again with his trusty 375 MM. With the staggering rate of technological development in the mid-1950s, chassis 0360 AM simply no longer remained competitive. The Mille Miglia would evade Scotti for the rest of his days. As this Ferrari was honourably retired after its remarkably successful competition career, so the car found its way across the Atlantic, passing through the hands of a small number of American owners until 1981, when it was acquired by the Pennsylvania trucking tycoon Len Rusiewicz. Painstakingly, over the course of the next 15 years and with the wholehearted support of his family, Rusiewicz returned what was a tired and forgotten but remarkably original Ferrari racer to its former glory. The long and exhaustive project complete, Rusiewicz did exactly what we would have done and showed it proudly to the world. Between 1996 and 2004, 0360 AM starred at a plethora of prestigious North American concours, including the 12th Annual Reading Concours d’Elegance, where it was awarded ‘Best of Show’, and the Ferrari Club of America National Concours, where it was the recipient of the ‘Forza Ferrari’ award. This 375 MM was also profiled in an in-depth feature in a 1997 issue of Cavallino, a copy of which accompanies the car. “Between 1996 and 2004, 0360 AM starred at a plethora of prestigious North American concours, including the 12th Annual Reading Concours d’Elegance, where it was awarded ‘Best of Show’.” After almost 25 years, Rusiewicz reluctantly parted with chassis 0360 AM in December of 2004. The car was bought by the Brescia-based Ferrari collector Emilio ‘Chico’ Gnutti, who promptly commissioned a comprehensive restoration. Ferrari Classiche’s preferred coachbuilder, Carrozzeria Quality Cars near Padua, was chosen to restore the stunning Pinin Farina bodywork, chassis and interior, while the mechanical components were entrusted to Brescia Autoracing, which is now known as Brixia Motor Classic. From the outset, the onus was on originality and authenticity. The body, for example, is now indistinguishable from that in the photos of the car contesting the 1954 Mille Miglia with Piero Scotti – a tribute to the artisanal craftsmanship of Quality Cars’ ingegneri. Gnutti enjoyed almost a decade with chassis number 0360 AM, exhibiting the car in the ultra-prestigious Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este and, satisfyingly, contesting the Mille Miglia Storico – over 60 years after it took to the starting ramp of the original version of the legendary Italian road race. This 375 MM’s final – and current – owner, a prominent American Ferrari collector with a world-class stable of road and competition Prancing Horses, assumed custody in 2013. It has not been seen in public since. These commandingly powerful ‘big-banger’ 1950s Ferraris are, understandably, extremely desirable today. And it’s frankly easy to appreciate why, given their heady combination of rarity, desperate beauty, dizzying performance and immense period competition success, earned in the hands of the era’s greatest pilots. This 375 MM Spider Pinin Farina, the very first of a mere 15 built, exemplifies this appeal to a tee. Firstly there’s chassis number 0360 AM’s successful period competition history while in Piero Scotti’s ownership, crowned by two Mille Miglia entries and that stunning victory in the 12 Hours of Casablanca – earned with the help of the factory and, of course, the former Formula 1 World Champion ‘Nino’ Farina. Then there’s its entirely clear and comprehensive history, as verified by the leading Ferrari historian Marcel Massini in his accompanying report and, of course, Ferrari Classiche in its accompanying certification binder. Three owners in the last 43 years should prove music to many collectors’ ears. Crucially, this history supports the remarkable originality of this 375 MM. For us here at Girardo & Co., these attributes pale in comparison to the sheer grace and presence of this stunning Spider. The Pinin Farina-bodied 375 MM Spider is one of those cars that arrests your attention and holds it ransom from reality. It treads a fine line between masculine and feminine, with those not-so-subtle hints of its enormous power melded with those sultry and traditional Pinin Farina design cues. Chassis 0360 AM is nothing short of a masterpiece, worthy of a prime spot in Paris’s Louvre, Los Angeles’ Getty or New York’s Metropolitan. Other Cars from Girardo & Co.

    'Performance, controllability and comfort have been combined in the Aston Martin DB4 to make it a highly desirable car: one in which long journeys can be completed very quickly indeed with the minimum of risk or discomfort and the maximum of pleasure.' - The Motor. Manufactured between October 1958 and June 1963, the DB4 developed through no fewer than five series. The first series had already undergone a number of improvements, including the fitting of heavy-duty bumpers after the first 50 cars, before the second series arrived in January 1960. A front-hinged bonnet, bigger brake callipers, and an enlarged sump were the major changes made on the Series II, while the third series featured separate rear lights, two bonnet stays and a host of improvements to the interior fittings. The fourth series was readily distinguishable by its new grille, with seven vertical bars, shallower bonnet intake, and recessed rear lights, while the final (fifth) series manufactured between September 1962 and June 1963 was 3½" longer. Delivered via Brooklands of Bond street in January 1962, Chassis 844, a series 4 example was supplied new in Dubonnet with contrasting grey leather interior and red carpets. Still fitted with its original engine and the desirable overdrive gearbox 3500 MW has spent all of its life in the UK with a reassuring small amount of long-term owners over the years notably only two between 1973 and 2018! The extensive history file has MOT’s from the early 70’s and many invoices, some hand written describing simple services to more extensive work, including previous chassis and sill work, bare metal repaint and the reconnolising of the original leather. Very recently it has had a top end engine rebuild by a marque specialist and delivers a smooth and enjoyable experience. Ensconced in a delightfully patinated interior, all the fabled charms of the DB4 are apparent. Plenty of power, a useful overdrive for more relaxed touring, all wrapped up in Touring’s timelessly elegant coachwork. 1962 Aston Martin DB4 Will Stone Historic Cars Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

    The production of the 250 SL started in December 1966. The engine and brakes were slightly modified from the 250 SE. The power output corresponds to that of the 230 SL, but a significantly higher torque of 216 Nm is achieved at the same engine speed (4200 rpm), which primarily results in improved acceleration. 250 SLs are the rarest examples of the W 113 series due to the fact that they were only built for just over a year. 5,186 were produced. According to available documents, this 250 SL was delivered to the USA on 21 May 1967 and returned to Germany in the 1990s. The car has been partially restored to its original condition and has undergone regular maintenance in recent years. The vehicle has a German historic registration. A Classic Data valuation report is available. Last but not least, the car impresses with its contemporary colour scheme and its untouched condition.
