Auto Storica is pleased to announce the sale of this Alfa Romeo Spider 1300 Junior Osso di Sepia. This was the name given to the first generation of the Alfa Romeo Spider, the replacement for the Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider, due to its concave side, created by Pininfarina, which resembled the inner shell of this invertebrate Alfa Romeo planned a huge advertising campaign to promote its new Spider, with several media presentations, a week of tests for the specialized press on the roads of Lake Garda, and even the organization of a cruise from Genoa to Cannes that included the raffle of three units during the journey. However, the best publicity for the small Italian roadster came in 1967 from the hand of Dustin Hoffman, and his appearance in the award-winning The Graduate. The qualities of the new Italian two-seater with a front engine and rear wheel drive captivated fans. Even the entry-level version, the 1300 Junior, to which our unit corresponds, offered exceptional performance, in which its 89 hp of power moved its scant 1000 kilograms of weight with ease. Our unit is not only fully restored, but also has improved and more reliable mechanics, delivering an immediate response to the accelerator thanks to its larger Webber carburettors. Its interior, finished in a striking dark blue color, matching the hood and the cabin cover, contrasts perfectly with the silver of its body. And the spoked wheels are the icing on such an exclusive cake. 1968 Alfa Romeo Spider 1300 Junior Auto Storica If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Massimo Grandi The Unforgettable Summer of '74 When Ferrari’s name began to shine brightly across the Atlantic, few figures shaped its American allure as decisively as Luigi Chinetti—and fewer still gave form to that allure as brilliantly as Giovanni Michelotti. Through Chinetti’s vision and Michelotti’s pen, Ferrari’s most exclusive clients discovered cars that went far beyond Maranello’s catalog: unique bodies, daring prototypes, and Daytona rebirths that blurred the line between road and dream. This is the story of the Edgardo Michelotti Giovanni Michelotti: Research and Patents for Active and Passive Automotive Safety For Giovanni Michelotti, the motorcar always symbolised freedom.

Carlo Abarth was no stranger to challenge and adversity. Though born in Vienna, he greatly favored Italian culture and thus changed his given name Karl, to Carlo. Studying engineering while nurturing an ambitious racing career, at the age of 26 Carlo made Italy his permanent home. An avid racer, he became a European motorcycle racing champion five times before an accident and lengthy hospitalization in 1939 which sidelined his racing career. Abarth made friends with Tazio Nuvolari, Ferry Porsche, and other top automotive pioneers, quickly understanding production methods and the value of motorsports racing, especially as industry grew after the war. In 1949, taking over the financially failing Cisitalia, he founded Abarth & C. with Cisitalia driver Guido Scagliarini, whose father substantially financed the fledgling operation which also benefited from the sales of unfinished Cisitalias. Abarth quickly earned a respected reputation, building race cars, while also supplying performance components to many manufacturers seeking performance tuning for their cars. Abarth also built limited production runs of specialized road cars based on Fiat platforms. By cleverly engineering costly but already tooled components from the Fiat 600 (chassis, suspension, steering, and engine) Abarth incorporated lightweight alloy construction processes to create unique and competitive sports racers and road cars. Production for the 750 Zagato established Abarth as a capable builder offering handsome vehicles in a surprising array of varying body styles. Advancing to the larger 982 cc pushrod engine, the Monomille was offered using a new body design derivative of the 750 Zagato Berlinetta. However instead of using Zagato for body construction, these were all built by Abarth, bearing the distinctive “Carrozzeria Abarth” badge. Both the Monomille and more costly twin-cam Bialbero were made available in this series, each of which were hand-crafted in the tradition of Italian coachbuilding, entirely under special order. Much like the wide range of body features offered in the 750 Zagato, the Monomille was available with a wide range of Stradale or Corsa configuration features and options. Of course, these handmade cars were understandably expensive, notably 30% more than a contemporary Porsche 356. As such, production was limited and factory documentation for numbers delivered was not carefully recorded. Experts today cite numbers ranging from 100 to as few as 25 examples, many of which sadly became subject to damage or corrosion due to dissimilar metal electrolysis, the cancerous adversary of great Italian coachbuilt cars. Today only a handful of surviving Abarth Monomille examples exist. This example 110-0380 is one of those very few recognized and documented surviving original cars. Early history of this car begins with the recorded ownership of William SS Gard, who is believed to have been the first US owner of this Abarth. While duration of his ownership is unknown, documents accompanying the car indicates that Gard sold the car to Charles Berwind of Webster, in Monroe County, NY in 1972. Berwind is reported to have sold the car to Peter Fisk, possibly as late as 1983. In 1985, Abarth authority Mahlon Craft purchased the car from Fisk. Craft, a recognized authority on Abarth cars, would own the car for over the 30-years, during which time he restored the car primarily for vintage racing use, keeping copious notes and hand-written details on the specifications and maintenance, much of which still accompanies the car today. According to Craft and other Abarth authorities, 110-0380 is believed to have been originally imported to North America by Al Cosentino, the famed and jubilantly eccentric founder of FAZA (Fiat Abarth Zagato Allemano), a small race shop and racing team located in upstate New York. Founded in the 1960s, FAZA was essentially the New York based Fiat tifosi for the times, becoming the assumptive authority for anyone who wanted to go fast in a Fiat. Eccentricities aside, Cosentino recalls in his various memoires having received his first Abarth Monomille, delivered from Milan in April 1963. Upon collecting the car, it was damaged in the front section while in the airport delivery parking lot. According to previous owner Mahlon Craft and written accounts from Cosentino, it is believed this car was intended for the 1963 New York Auto Salon FAZA display stand. Cosentino immediately had the front end repaired by an aircraft specialist familiar with alloy construction, presumably to represent FAZA at the show. Sometime after the show, Cosentino sells the car to its first owner. While no records currently exist supporting named ownership until Gard in 1971, the car appears to have remained in New York for most of its early years. Most importantly, 110-0380 appears to have been one of very few Monomilles configured at the factory with the very attractive and desirable covered headlight Kamm tail body configuration, and also containing lightweight features consistent with factory constructed Bialbero Corsa models. During Craft’s ownership, following much research and dedicated restoration by Automotive Restorations, Stratford, Connecticut, the car was outfitted with the original matching numbers crankcase and a correct Abarth casting Bilabero 750 twin-cam head, specially modified to pair with the 1000cc engine. Craft routinely campaigned the car in various vintage events at Lime Rock and smaller events throughout the area. In 2018, the car was sold to the current consigning owner who has since performed a significant amount of mechanical freshening and restoration work to improve the car to the condition shown today. In late 2018 and early 2019, the car was serviced including minor electrical work for ignition and gauges, the installation of a new drag link, the brake system flushed, a new battery installed, and various hoses replaced. In June 2020 the car was serviced with new rear wheel spacers and lug bolts, the oil pan removed, oil changed, and the drive gear replaced. During this time the bearings were inspected and found to be in satisfactory condition. Also, at this time, the original type fuel tank was re-installed, the carburetors removed for general service, studs replaced, carb. isolator installed, and the standard exhaust was installed, essentially returning the car to a more street-going version from the former vintage racing specs. Today the overall condition of this Abarth Monomille perfectly reflects the simplicity and refined sporting energy of the Abarth aesthetic. The closed headlight configuration, absent of bumpers and trim, delivers a wonderful semi-competition appearance. The low roofline, streamlined glass, and slightly raised engine cover terminates in the open Kamm tail, specifically designed to pull in returning airflow from the upper surface into the engine compartment. Immediately commanding your attention in vivid red, the paint is glossy and smooth throughout with very good panel presentation, particularly along the perimeter of the floating hood. Typical of alloy coachwork, the doors are slightly proud of the fitting surface towards the rocker panels, all of which have been fashioned by hand, and modestly tailored by time. The craftsmanship achieved during the restoration performed some years ago, and ongoing care since, has proven itself with mature overall cosmetics. There are minor areas of use evident in the finish, but none of significance so as to detract from the clarity of concept and respected restoration. The scant but perfectly placed exterior trim, emblems and minor brightwork details are finely detailed, reflective of quality workmanship. The headlight covers are clear and uniformly shaped, properly fitting the alloy scallops, separated by a clean ovoid opening lacking superfluous ornamentation. The artfully shaped lever-actuated door handles, cast aluminum Campagnolo wheels, and Abarth hood ties complete the unique combination of sporting and road going synergy captured under the Abarth name. The interior is a fitting combination of racing history and performance sports car appeal. The seats are comfortably trimmed in a high quality pleated black leather with modern Simpson seat harnesses (dated Dec 2021), padded roll bar, and driver’s side head support. The roll bar is decorated with just a few of the many vintage races this car has competed in over the past years. While the interior is generally spartan in nature, the finishes are purposeful and unified, giving the car a competition feel while conveying unique Italian mechanical beauty even in the smallest details such as the instrumentation and the Mono 1000 script. The engine bay features a matching-numbers crankcase now outfitted with a twin-cam Bilabero Abarth head. The head is a true Abarth casting originally developed for use on the 750 series engine. Having been specially modified to properly run on the 1000 cc engine, the set up presents authentically both visually and mechanically. The engine finishes are both correctly applied and accurately specified, focusing on originality, directed by dedicated servicing and thoughtful detailing performed over the years. The car has been enjoyably used only mildly in recent years, with recent mechanical work and engine detailing offered to the twin Weber carburetors. The engine components are faithfully presented flanked by trumpeting air horns, correct Abarth castings, and original style yellow fabric wound ignition wires. The forward truck compartment features a spare Abarth Campagnolo cast wheel with Pirelli tire, correct fuel tank, and battery. The underside of the car is in keeping with the general history of an enjoyed car showing correct type finned aluminum Abarth engine castings and correct suspension components. The overall finish, while not detailed for show, focuses on authenticity and cleanliness. Correct type brakes, lines and finishes, are consistent with the restoration quality and general services performed on the car. The chassis appears to be in sound condition with no visual evidence of structural damage or significant compromise to main components or suspension, once again supporting the documentation, and long-term ownership of this rare car. Driving this Fiat Abarth is a delightful reminder of how a simple but thoughtful series of engineering and design changes can substantially improve a car. The rear mounted engine lights off with a quick and raspy burst of twin-cam energy. The responsive throttle is tight and composed as the revs climb and the road opens up. The clutch works in harmony with the 5-speed gearbox, offering surprising ease when downshifting, benefiting from synchromesh in all gears. Braking is typical for cars of this period but surprisingly good under repeated use, due in part to the lighter weight of the overall car. The driving experience is well balanced, very well-sorted, and has the added benefit of bringing a genuine smile to the face of even the most jaded drivers of high-end Italian exotic sports cars. Beautifully composed and rare in number, this Abarth Monomille will continue to entice a wide range of collectors and motorsports enthusiasts as one of the very few examples of independent Italian motorsports during one of the most prolific periods of sports car design. This wonderful Abarth Monomille is accompanied by a treasure trove of original Abarth parts along with a substantial number of important and rare spare parts and mechanical components specifically suited to Fiat and Abarth cars.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright Carlo Abarth was no stranger to challenge and adversity. Though born in Vienna, he greatly favored Italian culture and thus changed his given name Karl, to Carlo. Studying engineering while nurturing an ambitious racing career, at the age of 26 Carlo made Italy his permanent home. An avid racer, he became a European motorcycle racing champion five times before an accident and lengthy hospitalization in 1939 which sidelined his racing career. Abarth made friends with Tazio Nuvolari, Ferry Porsche, and other top automotive pioneers, quickly understanding production methods and the value of motorsports racing, especially as industry grew after the war. In 1949, taking over the financially failing Cisitalia, he founded Abarth & C. with Cisitalia driver Guido Scagliarini, whose father substantially financed the fledgling operation which also benefited from the sales of unfinished Cisitalias. Abarth quickly earned a respected reputation, building race cars, while also supplying performance components to many manufacturers seeking performance tuning for their cars. Abarth also built limited production runs of specialized road cars based on Fiat platforms. By cleverly engineering costly but already tooled components from the Fiat 600 (chassis, suspension, steering, and engine) Abarth incorporated lightweight alloy construction processes to create unique and competitive sports racers and road cars. Production for the 750 Zagato established Abarth as a capable builder offering handsome vehicles in a surprising array of varying body styles. Advancing to the larger 982 cc pushrod engine, the Monomille was offered using a new body design derivative of the 750 Zagato Berlinetta. However instead of using Zagato for body construction, these were all built by Abarth, bearing the distinctive “Carrozzeria Abarth” badge. Both the Monomille and more costly twin-cam Bialbero were made available in this series, each of which were hand-crafted in the tradition of Italian coachbuilding, entirely under special order. Much like the wide range of body features offered in the 750 Zagato, the Monomille was available with a wide range of Stradale or Corsa configuration features and options. Of course, these handmade cars were understandably expensive, notably 30% more than a contemporary Porsche 356. As such, production was limited and factory documentation for numbers delivered was not carefully recorded. Experts today cite numbers ranging from 100 to as few as 25 examples, many of which sadly became subject to damage or corrosion due to dissimilar metal electrolysis, the cancerous adversary of great Italian coachbuilt cars. Today only a handful of surviving Abarth Monomille examples exist. This example 110-0380 is one of those very few recognized and documented surviving original cars. Early history of this car begins with the recorded ownership of William SS Gard, who is believed to have been the first US owner of this Abarth. While duration of his ownership is unknown, documents accompanying the car indicates that Gard sold the car to Charles Berwind of Webster, in Monroe County, NY in 1972. Berwind is reported to have sold the car to Peter Fisk, possibly as late as 1983. In 1985, Abarth authority Mahlon Craft purchased the car from Fisk. Craft, a recognized authority on Abarth cars, would own the car for over the 30-years, during which time he restored the car primarily for vintage racing use, keeping copious notes and hand-written details on the specifications and maintenance, much of which still accompanies the car today. According to Craft and other Abarth authorities, 110-0380 is believed to have been originally imported to North America by Al Cosentino, the famed and jubilantly eccentric founder of FAZA (Fiat Abarth Zagato Allemano), a small race shop and racing team located in upstate New York. Founded in the 1960s, FAZA was essentially the New York based Fiat tifosi for the times, becoming the assumptive authority for anyone who wanted to go fast in a Fiat. Eccentricities aside, Cosentino recalls in his various memoires having received his first Abarth Monomille, delivered from Milan in April 1963. Upon collecting the car, it was damaged in the front section while in the airport delivery parking lot. According to previous owner Mahlon Craft and written accounts from Cosentino, it is believed this car was intended for the 1963 New York Auto Salon FAZA display stand. Cosentino immediately had the front end repaired by an aircraft specialist familiar with alloy construction, presumably to represent FAZA at the show. Sometime after the show, Cosentino sells the car to its first owner. While no records currently exist supporting named ownership until Gard in 1971, the car appears to have remained in New York for most of its early years. Most importantly, 110-0380 appears to have been one of very few Monomilles configured at the factory with the very attractive and desirable covered headlight Kamm tail body configuration, and also containing lightweight features consistent with factory constructed Bialbero Corsa models. During Craft’s ownership, following much research and dedicated restoration by Automotive Restorations, Stratford, Connecticut, the car was outfitted with the original matching numbers crankcase and a correct Abarth casting Bilabero 750 twin-cam head, specially modified to pair with the 1000cc engine. Craft routinely campaigned the car in various vintage events at Lime Rock and smaller events throughout the area. In 2018, the car was sold to the current consigning owner who has since performed a significant amount of mechanical freshening and restoration work to improve the car to the condition shown today. In late 2018 and early 2019, the car was serviced including minor electrical work for ignition and gauges, the installation of a new drag link, the brake system flushed, a new battery installed, and various hoses replaced. In June 2020 the car was serviced with new rear wheel spacers and lug bolts, the oil pan removed, oil changed, and the drive gear replaced. During this time the bearings were inspected and found to be in satisfactory condition. Also, at this time, the original type fuel tank was re-installed, the carburetors removed for general service, studs replaced, carb. isolator installed, and the standard exhaust was installed, essentially returning the car to a more street-going version from the former vintage racing specs. Today the overall condition of this Abarth Monomille perfectly reflects the simplicity and refined sporting energy of the Abarth aesthetic. The closed headlight configuration, absent of bumpers and trim, delivers a wonderful semi-competition appearance. The low roofline, streamlined glass, and slightly raised engine cover terminates in the open Kamm tail, specifically designed to pull in returning airflow from the upper surface into the engine compartment. Immediately commanding your attention in vivid red, the paint is glossy and smooth throughout with very good panel presentation, particularly along the perimeter of the floating hood. Typical of alloy coachwork, the doors are slightly proud of the fitting surface towards the rocker panels, all of which have been fashioned by hand, and modestly tailored by time.

Before crossing the path of American Carroll Shelby, the AC Ace could have been a small roadster without great ambition, if not that of saving a moribund builder after the war. But the story of a creation as striking as the ancestor of the legendary Cobra could not be banal ... Although widely known since the 1960s, AC is one of the oldest British automakers. But his story was not punctuated with success, far from it. Founded in 1901 by the Weller brothers and based in Ferry Works near London, AC presented its first "three wheeler" in 1903. The company was then called Autocars and Accessories and named its model the AutoCarrier. Two letters that will become an emblem since the company is renamed Auto Carrier in 1907. The craft, simple and practical, is a great success and AC moved in 1911 in a larger factory that the Weller have built in Thames Ditton near London. With its growing success, AC decided to market its first "4 wheels" in 1913. It is a small two-seater sports type. But interrupted by the First World War, production resumed in 1919 with the introduction of a new 1500 cm3 inline 6-cylinder engine designed by John Weller. In 1922, the name of the company became AC Cars Ltd. Heavily indebted, Weller sells shares of the company to the investor and pilot Selwyn Edge who undertakes to elevate AC to a recognized sports car manufacturer. For this, the 6-cylinder is developed in several competition. But sales decline and the crisis of 1929 puts the company to the carpet. The brothers Charles et William, Derek father, Hurlock, owners of a transport company, bought it back in 1930 and production slowly resumed. Auto Carrier becomes AC Acedes Cars Ltd. Initially interested in the Thames Ditton buildings for their activities, the Hurlock brothers finally resigned themselves to continuing the sale of parts for the AC still outstanding which represent a significant potential market. Following an agreement with the Standard Group, a new line of cars is being developed for 1932. The Goodwood circuit designer Freddie March offers his services for the design of the new models that must reinforce AC as sports cars manufacturer. Gentlemen drivers are the privileged target of the company that is based on the saying "race on Sunday is sell on Monday"... The Second World War again disrupts the life of AC which stops in 1940 and does not resume until 1947. The firm is limited to give a boost to seriously dated 2 liter models. Driver Cliff Davis buys the Tojeiro roadster and wants him to install a Bristol 6-cylinder engine under the hood. This requires reviewing the chassis but Tojeiro agrees. On the occasion of his first race at Goodwood, Cliff won. Successes ensued in the course of 1953 and Davis' car soon made a name for itself in the world of motor racing. It was then that driver and gentleman Vin Davidson ordered the same chassis in Tojeiro. At the same time, the Hurlock brothers on the lookout for a model that could revive AC on the sports ground decide to take an interest in Tojeiro's car. It will be enough for them to try Davidson's car to convince themselves of the goodness of the idea ... The conceptual simplicity of the Tojeiro roadster fits in perfectly with the limited production facilities of AC Cars. The other interest is that at the end of an advantageous agreement it is expected that Tojeiro will be paid a royalties of £ 5 on each of the first 100 chassis sold, AC avoiding a significant investment while limiting the salary of his new employee! Based on the car purchased from Davidson, which became a consultant for AC, a first prototype was built very quickly for the 1954 London show. Instead of the 6-cylinder Bristol, the "6 Ditton" engine designed by John Weller before the war was installed. The new AC is called Ace. Car well born, the AC Ace makes the happiness of its drivers, amateurs or professionals. After winning many victories in his class, Ken Rudd hires a car at the 1957 Le Mans 24H race. The endurance race must give the small AC roadster a significant media coverage around the world. But the Hurlock brothers, near their pennies, do not quite see the Sarthe race so well. Their plans are rather to revive the production of a sedan to develop the brand, Rudd resigns himself to finance his participation in the event. During 24H, the 6 inline Bristol proves once again its incredible reliability and the small AC ACE led by Ken Rudd and Peter Bolton finishes the race at an average speed of 157.52 km/h, which gives him a 10th place overall. The class victory scarcely escapes them, just behind the Ferrari 500 TR, but the top speed recorded in the Hunaudières at 209 km/h impresses the crowd. Among them, a car racing enthusiast came especially from Texas to win the victory in 1959 remarks the English girl almost serial that runs in the middle of the big teams and ranks 7th in the race. AC cars will be present at Le Mans until 1962, during which they will find a worthy descent: AC Cobra ... Our AC Bristol was delivered new on 17/10/1959 by Worldwide lmports Inc (Los Angeles) We find the car in the hands of M.BIONDI and then in the name of Paul DOWING from 1994 to 2002 when it is imported in GB by an AC specialist, who quickly sells it to a French collector. The engine has been rebuilt in 2009 by Ets RPM, specialists in Clichy, from a standard ribbed block with little wear and a rebuilt cylinder head, designed for the use of unleaded fuel. The cooling radiator was reconditioned, and a new clutch installed. About 10.000 miles had been covered without any problems. Its maintenance was entrusted to Ets RPM in Clichy. It had been noted, in September 2012, the removal of the rear transverse blade package, then reconditioning/tire by specialist. Removal of the wheel shafts and disassembly of the bridge nose for replacement of the fixing axes / inking of the spring blades. Adjustment of the bevel gear teeth. Replacement of the rear shocks. In October 2015 at 82,478 miles, checked the running gear, various tightening, greasing and engine revision. In July 2022, during a general check-up, the whole brake system was revised. And it change hands through us to enter with great pleasure the 2023 Tour Auto In other words, a car ready to take the road and always very well maintained. 1959 AC Ace Bristol Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

But the story of a creation as striking as the ancestor of the legendary Cobra could not be banal ... Although widely known since the 1960s, AC is one of the oldest British automakers. But his story was not punctuated with success, far from it. Founded in 1901 by the Weller brothers and based in Ferry Works near London, AC presented its first "three wheeler" in 1903. The company was then called Autocars and Accessories and named its model the AutoCarrier. Two letters that will become an emblem since the company is renamed Auto Carrier in 1907. The craft, simple and practical, is a great success and AC moved in 1911 in a larger factory that the Weller have built in Thames Ditton near London. With its growing success, AC decided to market its first "4 wheels" in 1913. It is a small two-seater sports type. But interrupted by the First World War, production resumed in 1919 with the introduction of a new 1500 cm3 inline 6-cylinder engine designed by John Weller. In 1922, the name of the company became AC Cars Ltd. Heavily indebted, Weller sells shares of the company to the investor and pilot Selwyn Edge who undertakes to elevate AC to a recognized sports car manufacturer. For this, the 6-cylinder is developed in several competition. But sales decline and the crisis of 1929 puts the company to the carpet. The brothers Charles et William, Derek father, Hurlock, owners of a transport company, bought it back in 1930 and production slowly resumed. Auto Carrier becomes AC Acedes Cars Ltd. Initially interested in the Thames Ditton buildings for their activities, the Hurlock brothers finally resigned themselves to continuing the sale of parts for the AC still outstanding which represent a significant potential market. Following an agreement with the Standard Group, a new line of cars is being developed for 1932. The Goodwood circuit designer Freddie March offers his services for the design of the new models that must reinforce AC as sports cars manufacturer. Gentlemen drivers are the privileged target of the company that is based on the saying "race on Sunday is sell on Monday"... The Second World War again disrupts the life of AC which stops in 1940 and does not resume until 1947. The firm is limited to give a boost to seriously dated 2 liter models. Driver Cliff Davis buys the Tojeiro roadster and wants him to install a Bristol 6-cylinder engine under the hood. This requires reviewing the chassis but Tojeiro agrees. On the occasion of his first race at Goodwood, Cliff won. Successes ensued in the course of 1953 and Davis' car soon made a name for itself in the world of motor racing. It was then that driver and gentleman Vin Davidson ordered the same chassis in Tojeiro. At the same time, the Hurlock brothers on the lookout for a model that could revive AC on the sports ground decide to take an interest in Tojeiro's car. It will be enough for them to try Davidson's car to convince themselves of the goodness of the idea ... The conceptual simplicity of the Tojeiro roadster fits in perfectly with the limited production facilities of AC Cars. The other interest is that at the end of an advantageous agreement it is expected that Tojeiro will be paid a royalties of £ 5 on each of the first 100 chassis sold, AC avoiding a significant investment while limiting the salary of his new employee! Based on the car purchased from Davidson, which became a consultant for AC, a first prototype was built very quickly for the 1954 London show. Instead of the 6-cylinder Bristol, the "6 Ditton" engine designed by John Weller before the war was installed. The new AC is called Ace. Car well born, the AC Ace makes the happiness of its drivers, amateurs or professionals. After winning many victories in his class, Ken Rudd hires a car at the 1957 Le Mans 24H race. The endurance race must give the small AC roadster a significant media coverage around the world. But the Hurlock brothers, near their pennies, do not quite see the Sarthe race so well. Their plans are rather to revive the production of a sedan to develop the brand, Rudd resigns himself to finance his participation in the event. During 24H, the 6 inline Bristol proves once again its incredible reliability and the small AC ACE led by Ken Rudd and Peter Bolton finishes the race at an average speed of 157.52 km/h, which gives him a 10th place overall. The class victory scarcely escapes them, just behind the Ferrari 500 TR, but the top speed recorded in the Hunaudières at 209 km/h impresses the crowd. Among them, a car racing enthusiast came especially from Texas to win the victory in 1959 remarks the English girl almost serial that runs in the middle of the big teams and ranks 7th in the race. AC cars will be present at Le Mans until 1962, during which they will find a worthy descent: AC Cobra ... Our AC Bristol was delivered new on 17/10/1959 by Worldwide lmports Inc (Los Angeles) We find the car in the hands of M.BIONDI and then in the name of Paul DOWING from 1994 to 2002 when it is imported in GB by an AC specialist, who quickly sells it to a French collector. The engine has been rebuilt in 2009 by Ets RPM, specialists in Clichy, from a standard ribbed block with little wear and a rebuilt cylinder head, designed for the use of unleaded fuel. The cooling radiator was reconditioned, and a new clutch installed. About 10.000 miles had been covered without any problems. Its maintenance was entrusted to Ets RPM in Clichy. It had been noted, in September 2012, the removal of the rear transverse blade package, then reconditioning/tire by specialist. Removal of the wheel shafts and disassembly of the bridge nose for replacement of the fixing axes / inking of the spring blades. Adjustment of the bevel gear teeth. Replacement of the rear shocks. In October 2015 at 82,478 miles, checked the running gear, various tightening, greasing and engine revision. In July 2022, during a general check-up, the whole brake system was revised. And it change hands through us to enter with great pleasure the 2023 Tour Auto In other words, a car ready to take the road and always very well maintained.

This 1983 Lancia 037 started life as a “Stradale” road car, which was converted into a test mule/reconnaissance car for the Group B car campaigned by the French Lancia importer André Chardonnet. During the 1983 and 1984 rally seasons, team Chardonnet utilized this car for demonstrations, development, and pre-runs. The car was painted in the same blue and white livery as the race car, with Pioneer stereo and Total fuel as the primary sponsors. Sitting on its multi-piece Speedline wheels, the car looks every bit a rally car, but can be driven without a team of mechanics to get it set up for you. On the inside, the racecar specification continues with two-tone black and blue OMP race seats featuring 5-point harnesses, and the interior is devoid of carpet. The door cards are simply pieces of sheet metal with mesh door pockets as your primary in-cabin storage. When you climb over the roll cage’s doorbar, into the driver’s seat, you are met by an almost entirely standard “Stradale” dashboard, including a 10,000 RPM tachometer with the redline at 7,000 and a 260 km/h speedometer, which sits behind a 3-spoke Momo steering wheel. A host of other gauges are laid out to the right, including temperature, fuel level, and boost pressure. In the center console, one of the few concessions to comfort – power window switches. Powering the 037 is a 2.0-liter DOHC inline-4 with a Roots-Style supercharger breathing through a mechanical fuel injection system. The engine was based on that found in the Fiat-Abarth 131 rally car but with the addition of forced induction, and reportedly produced around 280 horsepower in stock form. This engine was recently rebuilt along with the 5-speed ZF transaxle, ensuring that it is in optimal running and driving condition. The exact modifications made to this car by Team Chardonnet aren’t known, but from behind the wheel, the car feels sharper and significantly faster than a regular Stradale. Although this was not the car campaigned by Chardonnet, the team’s competition 037 was destroyed and no longer exists. That makes this example a real piece of history and a real artifact from the Group B era that you can drive and enjoy. With its legendary team association, recent mechanical reconditioning, and the fact that this is about as close as you can get to driving a Group B car without a full-time mechanic helping run it, this 037 represents a rare opportunity for rallying enthusiasts everywhere. 1983 Lancia 037 ISSIMI, Inc If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Ferrari 308 GTB offered here is one of the rarer and more sought-after cars with dry sump lubrication. It was delivered in mid-January 1982 by the official Ferrari dealership Sportgarage F. Leirer AG. The car has always been cherished and cared for, and the last owner had all the necessary work carried out regardless of the cost. For example, CHF 24,000 was recently invested in perfecting the technology. The on-board folder with original owner’s manual, service booklet and exhaust maintenance document is present. This beautiful Ferrari 308 GTB is in top-maintained and very original collector’s condition, veteran-tested and fresh from service with, among other things, a revised carburetor and new ignition coils. The Ferrari 308 GTB is one of Ferrari’s iconic models, which was produced from 1975 to 1985. A special variant of this model is the 308 GTB with steel bodywork and dry sump lubrication. This technology ensures that the oil is constantly supplied even under extreme cornering forces and inclines, which improves the lubrication and durability of the engine. Dry sump lubrication made the 308 GTB particularly popular with racing drivers and enthusiasts, who appreciated the additional reliability during sporty driving. Only the 308 GTB built for the European market until 1980 had an engine with dry sump lubrication. Cars for overseas and the 308 GTS and all later Berlinetta and Spider successor models with intake manifold injection had engines with wet sump lubrication. The European models with dry sump lubrication produced around 255 hp at 7,700 rpm. This was more than the US versions, which were somewhat throttled by stricter emissions regulations. 1982 Ferrari 308 GTB Lutziger Classic Cars AG If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Cars for overseas and the 308 GTS and all later Berlinetta and Spider successor models with intake manifold injection had engines with wet sump lubrication. The European models with dry sump lubrication produced around 255 hp at 7,700 rpm. This was more than the US versions, which were somewhat throttled by stricter emissions regulations.

A PARTING SHOT OF GREATNESS In 1937 the Maserati brothers sold their famous racing concern to the Orsi family, forever changing the trajectory of the storied manufacturer. But Ernesto Maserati reserved one parting shot for the post-war competition field in the form of a final model he began devising during the war: The A6GCS. While the first letter honored the late Alfieri Maserati, and the 6 represented the model’s novel inline six-cylinder engine, the G stood for ghisa (Italian for cast iron, indicating the block’s construction material), and the C and S respectively stood for Corsa and Sport. Although the A6 model most conspicuously took the form of the civilized A6 1500 road car, Ernesto was simultaneously developing the A6GCS racecar. Engineer Alberto Massimino was charged with building a new tubular steel ladder-type frame that was equipped with a coil-sprung front independent suspension with forged and polished unequal-length A-arms, Houdaille shock absorbers at all corners, and finned aluminum drum brakes. The triple-carbureted dry-sump single-overhead-camshaft A6GCS engine featured an increased displacement of 1,978 cubic centimeters, prompting the model’s final nomenclature, A6GCS 2000. Mounted with grand prix-style cycle-wing coachwork hammered in aluminum by Medardo Fantuzzi, the first-series A6GCS was built in a smattering quantity of just 14 to 15 examples between April 1947 and November 1950, most of which were sold to privateer drivers. Many of these cars were fitted with a large centrally positioned headlamp, for which the model was nicknamed “Monofaro.” Prized today for their rarity, visceral performance, and the genealogical position as the progenitor of Maserati’s great six-cylinder cars of the following decade, including the A6GCS/53, A6G/54, 300S, and the distant 3500 GT, the A6GCS 2000 is one of Modena’s most archetypal models, an automotive unicorn that represented the Maserati brothers’ last hurrah for the Trident. BOUND FOR BRAZIL Benefitting from 18 years of fastidious current ownership that succeeded a 26-year period of single ownership, as well as an extremely well-documented history, this A6GCS is perhaps the finest example to be publicly offered. According to copies of Maserati factory documents on file, chassis number 2012 was ordered in October 1950 by the Automovel Club do Brasil, specified with two individual seats upholstered in Verde, and coachwork finished in Giallo. Following completion, the Maserati was shipped a month later with the sister car chassis number 2019 (which was nearly identical in appearance with the exception of a single bench seat). At the Gran Premio di Interlagos in January 1951, first owner Mario Valentin Dos Santos drove the A6GCS to a class win, which was duly recognized by an official congratulatory letter to Dos Santos from the factory (a copy of which is on file). Although South American racing records of this period are not particularly well-documented, it is believed that 2012 participated in many races in Brazil and Argentina during the early 1950s, including events competed by such accomplished drivers as Juan Manuel Fangio and Froilán Gonzales. Records suggest that the car was subsequently raced by Annuar de Goes Daquer, including a 6th-place finish at the Circuito Quinta da Boa Vista in February 1952. At some point during 1952 the Maserati was returned to the factory for repairs that included the rebuild of the engine into a very unique configuration. The original head was removed and replaced with a dual-overhead-cam (bialbero) component with single ignition and an unusual cam design (with the linguette resting inside of the head’s V shape). It is believed that this modification constituted Maserati’s very first dual-overhead-cam engine head, significantly enriching 2012’s singular provenance. In December 1952 the A6GCS 2000 was returned to Mr. Dos Santos in Brazil, and it presumably returned to a life of racing in South American events. Unfortunately, the following 20 years of activity is not currently known (despite intense research efforts by the consignor), but in 1972 the car was discovered in a São Paulo yard by the well-known British enthusiast Colin Crabbe. As attested by period photos, the Monofaro had been repainted in rosso and remained in surprisingly strong condition, although the original nose had been modified with an egg-crate grille. THE ROAD TO RESTORATION Mr. Crabbe purchased chassis 2012 and shipped it to the UK, where it was acquired in 1973 by Alan Smith of Derby. After taking minimal measures toward a restoration, Mr. Smith sold the Maserati in 1977 to dealer Danny Margulies, and a year later the car passed through a proxy to Sid Colberg, the proprietor of Anglo American Auto Investments in San Francisco, California. Thus began a 26-year love affair between Mr. Colberg and the Monofaro, which he quickly set about restoring. Commencing in the UK, the work began with a correction of the coachwork by Grand Prix Metalcraft in North London, while Ted Bailey of Bourne, Lincolnshire, was entrusted to address the mechanical refurbishment. In 1980 the A6GCS was shipped to San Francisco, and the respected Phil Reilly & Co. in Corte Madera, California, was retained to continue the mechanical sorting, including significant attention from marque specialist Ivan Zaremba. Upon completion of the work, Mr. Colberg began enjoying the Maserati as it was engineered to be used, campaigning in vintage events and rallies that included the Monterey Historics and the 1986 Mille Miglia Storica. During this period the car was also prominently featured in an article in the January 1989 issue of Road & Track by the noted automotive journalists Dean Batchelor and John Lamm. After a remarkable ownership period of 26 years, Mr. Colberg sold the Maserati in 2004 to the consignor, a respected collector of top-shelf postwar Italian sports cars. Though 2012 remained in very good condition, the new owner opted to oversee a comprehensive restoration that included a freshening of the engine by Leydon Restorations in Pennsylvania. On the basis of this work the consignor enjoyed the A6GCS in several events, including the 2005 Mille Miglia Storica and the 2006 Fall Festival at Lime Rock. In 2007 the Maserati was further refined with a rebuild of the engine, gearbox, and steering system by the respected Nino Epifani in Northern California. The opportunity was taken to also refurbish the driveshaft, the universal joint, and the fuel tank. Additional event use soon followed, including participation at the 2010 Tutto Italiano. In May 2021 the Monofaro was entrusted to the specialists at Candini Classiche in Modena, Italy, where new purpose-designed pistons were installed, thereby intentionally lowering the engine compression. The head was fitted with new valves, guides, and springs, and new megacycle cams were installed. Benefitting from 18 years of fastidious attention by the consignor, this exquisite and rare A6GCS 2000 is offered in jewel-like condition, suitable for presentation at major concours d’elegance or further driving enjoyment. The car is believed to be one of just eight surviving examples, and it is eligible for the most exclusive vintage events worldwide. Chassis number 2012 is accompanied by a trove of documentation that includes copies of factory build documents and correspondence; factory completion photos; technical diagrams; period Maserati literature; prior registrations and bills of sale; service and restoration invoices from Phil Reilly, Leydon, Epifani, and Candini; a 2006 FIVA Card; a driving/racing logbook; and period and restoration photographs. Presented in such a state of splendor, the beautiful A6GCS ably attests to the brilliance of the Maserati brothers. It epitomizes the daring spirit and astounding engineering efforts of Modena during the postwar period, offering a true gem to discerning marque collectors and sports car racing connoisseurs. 1950 Maserati A6GCS 2000 Monofaro RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

This very special Chevron B8 (#DBE-54) possesses an irrefutably correct/original identity supported by continuous ownership and race history, Le Mans Classic provenance, a fresh Lester Owen engine and would be very welcome at any prestigious motorsport event. The hugely successful Chevron B8 first appeared in 1968, usually with BMW 2-litre engines but also with the Ford FVA, FVC and occasionally the Lotus-Climax. It was homologated into FIA 'Group 4' Sports Cars from March 1968 on the basis that 50 were built (reduced to 25 in 1969). To help Chevron Cars achieve the required number (on paper), every rebuild was listed as a new car - a habit that would continue into the B16, B19 and even the B21 and no doubt, was a practice common to other builders of limited production racing cars. In the end, only 44 of the original cars were completed. Often described as one of the greatest racing cars of all time, the B8 was fast, forgiving and delightful. In common with the Lotus Elan and the BMW E30 M3, it was one of those cars that would not punish you for a temporary 'loss of talent' and would quietly sort itself out whilst you were considering 'Plan B'. This particular car, chassis #DBE-54, was delivered new to British club racer, Peter Crossley, in March 1968 and uniquely for a B8, was fitted with a four-cylinder 2-litre Coventry-Climax, the same type of engine that was used in Formula 2 in the early 1960s. The car first raced at Rufforth on March 13th with Peter finishing second in the Yorkshire Evening Post Trophy race. Two days later, he won a Formula Libre race at Croft and the following month at Oulton Park finished second in the Total GT race. After placing second at Oulton Park in June, Peter then raced the B8 in Europe for the rest of the season, taking in events at Vila Real, Hockenheim, Wunstorf, d’Urcy, and at Jyllandsringen for the Danish GP where he finished fourth overall, in what would turn out to be the highlight of his European summer adventure. This was the start of an extensive and successful racing career for DBE-54 which has a well documented, continuous ownership history (see below) – this continuity and subsequent originality is almost unheard of for a 1960s Chevron, making DBE-54 one of only a remaining few examples with such provenance. The following 1969 season, Peter Crossley purchased a Brabham BT8, into which he fitted the Chevron’s Coventry-Climax engine, so consequently the engineless B8 sat unused the following year, except for one outing to Magny-Cours at the end of the season with a BMW 2-litre engine. Peter then put the B8 up for sale and it was bought by Theo Kinsbergen of Stichting Racing of Holland. Sponsored and entered by Team Radio Veronica, Theo took a string of podium finishes as well as winning twice at Zandvoort during the season. Borrowed for one race after crashing his own B16, Rein Zwolsman used DBE-54 to good effect to win the airfield race at Welschap. For the last two events of the season at Zandvoort, the car was rented to Henk Bosman who won both races then agreed to buy the car which he raced the following year, winning four races and finishing second in four others. The B8 was then sold to Frans van Dijk. In early 1981, DBE-54 returned to the UK and was initially purchased by well known historic racer, Steven Langton, who sold the car the following year to Richard Parsons before it subsequently became the property of John Upton. In 1984, John commissioned well known restorer, Simon Hadfield, to restore the B8 and then race it afterwards in three historic events at Snetterton, Brands Hatch and Silverstone. In what were his first ever drives in a Chevron, Simon won all three races. DBE-54 was then sold to Tim Greenhill in 1985 who hired rapid former saloon car pedaller, Tim Goss, to drive the car in the HSCC Historic series. Tim demonstrated his versatility with five class wins and won the class championship. Since then, DBE-54 has been sold on several times but has remained active in historic racing in the hands of Richard Parsons, Michael Kuhn, Stephan Schrauwen, Guy Peeters and then with our vendor since 2017, who has also had class wins racing in Masters across Europe and also raced with Peter Auto in 2018 and 2019. Reassuringly, DBE-54 remains in excellent condition throughout and is sold in race-ready condition although it will be necessary for interested parties to establish the currency and suitability of any safety-related equipment (seats, belts, tank, extinguisher etc.) as it was last run just prior to COVID. The 2-litre BMW engine was rebuilt by specialist Lester Owen in 2020 and is ‘box fresh’ with zero hours running time since, plus its suspension and brakes were rebuilt. It comes with a good spares package (multiple wheels sets, spare bodywork, etc. – the latter will be by collection post-sale) and benefits from valid 2017-issued FIA HTP papers. Also included are extensive racing history files including historic HTPs and period photographs. Interestingly, DBE-54 comes with Belgian road registration documents which is helpful for European events and also make it a great entry for historic road events and rallies around the world. This pedigree Chevron B8 is truly one of the best original examples and is eligible for many historic race events including the Le Mans Classic (where DBE-54 competed in 2006), Masters WSM, CER, etc. where it will continue to be competitive and a welcome entry. Very rarely does historic racing machinery come with this level of provenance, giving a new owner a real sense of custodianship and a tangible link to decades of successful, safe and enjoyable racing. DBE-54 is a special car and is ready to make more history.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright This very special Chevron B8 (#DBE-54) possesses an irrefutably correct/original identity supported by continuous ownership and race history, Le Mans Classic provenance, a fresh Lester Owen engine and would be very welcome at any prestigious motorsport event. The hugely successful Chevron B8 first appeared in 1968, usually with BMW 2-litre engines but also with the Ford FVA, FVC and occasionally the Lotus-Climax. It was homologated into FIA 'Group 4' Sports Cars from March 1968 on the basis that 50 were built (reduced to 25 in 1969). To help Chevron Cars achieve the required number (on paper), every rebuild was listed as a new car - a habit that would continue into the B16, B19 and even the B21 and no doubt, was a practice common to other builders of limited production racing cars. In the end, only 44 of the original cars were completed. Often described as one of the greatest racing cars of all time, the B8 was fast, forgiving and delightful. In common with the Lotus Elan and the BMW E30 M3, it was one of those cars that would not punish you for a temporary 'loss of talent' and would quietly sort itself out whilst you were considering 'Plan B'. This particular car, chassis #DBE-54, was delivered new to British club racer, Peter Crossley, in March 1968 and uniquely for a B8, was fitted with a four-cylinder 2-litre Coventry-Climax, the same type of engine that was used in Formula 2 in the early 1960s. The car first raced at Rufforth on March 13th with Peter finishing second in the Yorkshire Evening Post Trophy race. Two days later, he won a Formula Libre race at Croft and the following month at Oulton Park finished second in the Total GT race. After placing second at Oulton Park in June, Peter then raced the B8 in Europe for the rest of the season, taking in events at Vila Real, Hockenheim, Wunstorf, d’Urcy, and at Jyllandsringen for the Danish GP where he finished fourth overall, in what would turn out to be the highlight of his European summer adventure.

One of the incredibly rare, factory 350bhp examples, one owner from new and only 6,180 miles. Possibly the ultimate RS200. The RS200 was born in the era of 'Group B' rallying, undeniably the most extreme period in rally history with all competing manufacturers turning every dial up to 11. The power was immense, the courses dangerous and, no matter how high the level of a driver's skill, it was always outmatched by the sheer bravery required to pilot these machines at full chat. Whilst Ford’s competitors developed their rally cars from suitable models in their road car range, Lancia with their S4 Integrale, Audi with the S1 Quattro and Peugeot with their T16 205, Ford took a more extreme route building a competitive rally car and then using it as the basis for a well-engineered road-legal version purely to tick the homologation boxes. Produced by Ford Motorsport in Boreham from 1984-1986, the plastic-fiberglass composite body was designed Filippo Sapino of Ghia Design Studio and enclosed a mid-mounted engine, four-wheel drive, and a front-mounted gearbox for ideal 50/50 weight distribution. The chassis was designed by Formula 1 designer, Tony Southgate, in conjunction with F1 engineer, John Wheeler, so the car had real potential for greatness. Motivation was provided by an 1,803cc Ford-Cosworth BDT engine fitted with a Garett T03/04 turbocharger which produced 250bhp in standard road-going trim although, as production progressed, more power became available. At the time, 'Group B' regulations required manufacturers to assemble 200 road-going versions of their race-bred competition cars, however, with the passing of time it's become clear that Ford did not manage to sell 200, with Justin Smith, the Ford RS200 authority, believing as few as 147 were actually sold. Towards the end of the program, a 350bhp version was offered and our car is identified as one of these incredibly rare 'Group B' evolutions with the adjustable boost rotating control behind the left-hand seat and, when combined with the fact that it's one owner from new, showing 6,180 miles, in delightful original condition and with an impeccable history file, it must surely be the ultimate RS200. #112 was supplied new by Stormont of Tunbridge Wells having been ordered by its excited owner after he had visited Boreham to see the RS200 road program on 12th August 1986 as a VIP. We believe this RS200 to be one of the best of the one hundred and forty seven supplied in full road trim by Ford. Uniquely, it comes with a copy of the original RS200 Customer Sales Record showing it to be one of the very rare 350bhp factory upgrade examples. It still displays its original JQF Engineering sticker on the cam cover showing build number 158. The iconic red seats and steering wheel complete an incredibly sharp interior without the secondary red gear knob, which means its locked in 37/63 4x4 mode although the mechanics below the gaiter are the same for all models. It's still running on its original Pirelli tyres complementing its superb original condition. The suspension struts have been refurbished in the past and, in 2017, it was subject to a cam-belt change and a full service including a new Gold-Flo fuel pump. Despite having not covered any miles since, it was treated to another service recently by Graham Hathaway Racing. #112 is supplied with a massive RS200 workshop manual, two keys - one with the Stormont key fob, complete Ford embossed tool kit, its Ford Security Pack, custom car cover and plumbed-in battery charger. The history file contains all the documentation necessary to corroborate the fascinating story of RS200 #112. This is a collector-quality RS200, with the 350bhp factory upgrade and in incredibly original condition. 1987 Ford RS200 Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
