Beautiful Example of a Rare US-Specification 1960s Alfa Spider, Comprehensive Restoration Completed in 2018 and Finished in Red Over a Black Leather Interior. When the Alfa Romeo 2000 was first put into production in 1958, it was designed as a more upscale alternative to the smaller Giulietta coupes, sedans and spiders the company was selling at the time. Initially designed as a 6-passenger saloon car, the 2000 line was developed to include a convertible and a coupe within the first two years of production. Powered by a 2-liter inline 4-cylinder engine, these cars were built to cruise at high speed for hours on end and were the perfect method of transportation to whisk you and a passenger to your lake house for the weekend. Although the sedans were all produced in-house at Alfa Romeo, the bodies for the spider were produced by Touring, while the coupes were built at the Bertone factory. This 1960 2000 Touring Spider was sold new through the legendary US importer Max Hoffman to a buyer in New York in 1961. It was enjoyed in the United States for nearly 35 years before being exported back to its homeland, ending up in Florence sometime in 1995. Presented in the ultimate Alfa Romeo color scheme of Red with a black leather interior, this car has been comprehensively restored and is in outstanding condition throughout. This car is an absolute wonder to behold in person- from many angles the shape is very reminiscent of Ferraris of the era, but has its own unique touches like the almost gill-like vents along the lower edge of the front fenders. With the 2000 Touring Spider, you can tell a car was originally destined for America by the hood vents- the US cars had both of the inlets positioned right next to one another with a chrome strip separating them, while the European cars had the openings placed further apart on the hood. The main reason that this car was chosen to be restored was that it was already a very clean example that retained all of its numbers matching componentry. But that is not to say that the restorers splashed some paint on it and moved along. Photos of the restoration-which are included- show that master craftsmen spared no effort or expense in the recommissioning of this car and it was completed with the utmost care and consideration This resulted in what can only be described as a Concours-level example. The restoration was completed in 2018 and has been used enough to work through the post-restoration punch list but still looks fresh and as if it had just rolled out of the workshop. The black leather interior of the car is classic Alfa Romeo- exceptionally simple, yet everything is truly elegant. Sitting in the driver’s seat, you look through the top of the 3-spoke wheel at a large tachometer and speedometer in front of you- although basic, everything from the shape of the needles to the font used on the dials brings you back to a more stylish time. Flanking those two gauges are a pair of split gauges that help you keep track of the car’s temperature, fuel level, and oil pressure and a slew of HVAC controls sit directly under the dash on pusher levers. A set of floor-hinged pedals help you operate the 5-speed manual gearbox and an original-style radio sits in the center of the dash with “All Transistor” scrawled in cursive across the top. The inside is a glorious place to spend time and thanks to the comprehensive restoration, everything appears in nearly as-new condition. Between 1958 and 1961, fewer than 3445 Touring Spiders were produced and due to rust, the number of cars remaining is significantly fewer. Arguably one of Alfa Romeo’s most elegant road cars, the 2000 Touring Spider really fills the role of a baby Ferrari 250 in many ways yet is far easier to run and live with. Given this example’s outstanding, well-documented restoration, replicating one to this standard would be exceptionally expensive and time-consuming. This US-spec example is ready to find its new owner and provide years of top-down driving enjoyment. 1960 Alfa Romeo 2000 Touring Spider ISSIMI, Inc If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

When the Lamborghini Miura first broke cover in 1966, the car did not so much launch as it did land—i.e., from another planet. A perfect marriage of futuristic styling and borderline experimental engineering, the model began life as an after-hours exercise by Bob Wallace and Paolo Stanzani, as well as Gian Paolo Dallara (of Ferrari 250 GTO fame), with an engine designed by Giotto Bizzarrini. Within the space of a year the quartet’s revolutionary design was ready to be shown—initially, in chassis form—featuring a transversely arranged, mid-mounted V-12 sharing its casting with a compact five-speed transaxle, neatly arranged for optimal balance and a low center of gravity. The Miura’s function was equally matched by its form, executed by a 22-year-old Marcello Gandini (then working for Bertone) who penned a strikingly beautiful design that was both deeply attractive and menacingly purposeful; headlamp surrounds that evoked eyelashes, doors that, when opened, conjured the image of a raging bull’s horns, and a wild interior unlike anything previously seen on a production car. The Miura would go through a number of changes throughout its eight-year production life, but it was the first edition—the P400—that cemented the model’s reputation as the greatest supercar of its era. The first 120 or so Miura chassis were constructed from thinner steel, and remain highly prized for their purity of design and lighter construction. Chassis number 3057 is one of these early “thin-chassis” examples, being just the 39th Miura to leave the Sant’Agata factory. Unlike many of its brethren, 3057 benefits from a known history among a short chain of just three recorded enthusiast-owners, a world-class restoration executed by leading marque specialists, factory-blessed originality, and a trophy case big enough to need its own garage. Originally finished in Rosso Miura over black leather, this left-hand-drive, home-market Miura was dispatched to dealer SEA (Societa Esotica Autovettura) during July 1967. It was reportedly sold new to Ben Johnson, an American tourist travelling in Italy, and exported to his Los Angeles-area home shortly following the completion of a lengthy high-speed tour around Europe. One struggles to fathom just how truly alien and breathtaking the sight of this Miura was for the residents of Los Angeles who were lucky enough to catch Johnson and 3057 at speed in the early morning hours along Mulholland Drive—the wail of its naturally-aspirated V-12 echoing into a cacophonous terror against the canyon walls. In 1978, this early Miura was purchased from Johnson’s estate by fellow Angelino and Lamborghini enthusiast Dr. Dean Aberman, at which time chassis 3057 showed just 2,464 miles on its odometer. Dr. Aberman did not just own Miura chassis 3057 for the following 37 years—he lived with it. He drove it regularly, sharing his passion with anyone lucky enough to witness it in motion. He frequently took the car on spirited weekend runs to Mexico, thereby building a famous reputation for himself among West Coast enthusiasts. Beyond the road, he proudly showed 3057, earning a First in Class at the 1992 Santa Barbara Concours and participating in multiple Italian Stampede rallies between Los Angeles and Monterey. Throughout his tenure, Dr. Aberman entrusted marque specialist Jeff Stephan (a.k.a. Mr. Miura) with maintaining the Miura—a charge he seems to have executed with fanatical diligence based upon Aberman’s reputation for extremely high-speed touring. In his ownership, Aberman preserved 3057’s mechanical integrity while making only one notable modification: fitting an SV-specification dry-sump system for improved oiling under aggressive driving. It remains unclear whether Aberman or the original owner was responsible for 3057’s early-life color change from Rosso Miura to Arancia Miura. In 2015, the consignor purchased this car from Aberman; interestingly, his post-purchase inspection was entrusted to none other than revered Lamborghini test-driver and expert Valentino Balboni. Balboni was reportedly most impressed by 3057’s exceptional state of preservation, having noted the car’s original alloy bodywork, glass, and mechanical components, and subtle signs of authentic use acquired under Dr. Aberman’s care. Inspired by the car’s history and guided by the desire to return it to factory splendor, the consignor immediately commissioned a no-expense-spared restoration, assembling an elite team of Miura experts from across the country organized by Jeff Stephan¬. Invoices (on file) illustrate well over $700,000 spent between 2015 and 2017! Stephan partnered with Debbie Sidera of Debbie Motors—herself trained under Lamborghini restoration luminary Gary Bobileff—to manage the project and handle mechanical execution. Renowned fabricator Andy Palmer of Palmer Coachworks led the bodywork, while Hot Rods and Hobbies, BB Stile, and Ed Pink Racing Engines contributed component expertise. Upon disassembly, 3057’s original Bertone coachwork remained straight, and well preserved. Palmer subtly reinforced the chassis, thereby improving panel fit and achieving astonishingly straight lines without altering the Miura’s iconic silhouette. Stephan rebuilt 3057’s mechanicals from the ground up, including the original Armstrong shocks and five-speed transaxle. He sourced all critical parts from Lamborghini Polo Storico for ultimate period accuracy, while BB Stile restored the interior using factory-correct upholstery, trim, and Italian-sourced carpets. Even the tires are period-correct Pirelli Cinturatos reproduced for the model’s 50th anniversary. The original matching-numbers engine was fully rebuilt by renowned engine builder Ed Pink. They replaced the cast pistons with forged, short-skirt graphite-coated units and blueprinted and balanced the entire rotating assembly. Stephan also restored the Weber carburetors and reinstalled its factory P400 oiling layout. With the powerplant transformed and chassis geometry perfected, the consignor applied his racing knowledge of chassis tuning to fully exploit 3057’s new structural enhancements—delivering dramatically improved precision, balance, and drivability. The completed car made its public debut at the 2016 The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, where it celebrated the Miura’s 50th anniversary by winning Best Restored Miura against the largest field of assembled Miuras in history. It followed that achievement at Concorso Italiano, where it swept all the major categories: Best Miura, Best Lamborghini, and the coveted Best in Show. In recognition of its quality, Automobili Lamborghini America presented 3057 with the Bull Award, the marque’s highest honor for a historic Lamborghini. In August 2023, 3057 returned to Monterey and again took Best Miura and Best in Show at Concorso Italiano—a rare repeat victory among vintage Lamborghinis. It marked a fitting conclusion to Jeff Stephan’s legendary restoration career and stands as a testament to what many consider the finest early Miura restoration in existence. With its unmatched provenance, world-class restoration, and sweeping concours success, Miura 3057 stands among the most significant early Miuras extant. It is unquestionably eligible for, and worthy of, entry into the world’s most prestigious concours events—and astute collectors will note that the list of elite venues at which this Lamborghini has appeared includes neither Pebble Beach nor Villa d’Este, where this magnificent Miura has yet to be shown. 1967 Lamborghini Miura P400 by Bertone RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Beyond the road, he proudly showed 3057, earning a First in Class at the 1992 Santa Barbara Concours and participating in multiple Italian Stampede rallies between Los Angeles and Monterey. Throughout his tenure, Dr. Aberman entrusted marque specialist Jeff Stephan (a.k.a. Mr. Miura) with maintaining the Miura—a charge he seems to have executed with fanatical diligence based upon Aberman’s reputation for extremely high-speed touring. In his ownership, Aberman preserved 3057’s mechanical integrity while making only one notable modification: fitting an SV-specification dry-sump system for improved oiling under aggressive driving. It remains unclear whether Aberman or the original owner was responsible for 3057’s early-life color change from Rosso Miura to Arancia Miura. In 2015, the consignor purchased this car from Aberman; interestingly, his post-purchase inspection was entrusted to none other than revered Lamborghini test-driver and expert Valentino Balboni. Balboni was reportedly most impressed by 3057’s exceptional state of preservation, having noted the car’s original alloy bodywork, glass, and mechanical components, and subtle signs of authentic use acquired under Dr. Aberman’s care. Inspired by the car’s history and guided by the desire to return it to factory splendor, the consignor immediately commissioned a no-expense-spared restoration, assembling an elite team of Miura experts from across the country organized by Jeff Stephan¬. Invoices (on file) illustrate well over $700,000 spent between 2015 and 2017! Stephan partnered with Debbie Sidera of Debbie Motors—herself trained under Lamborghini restoration luminary Gary Bobileff—to manage the project and handle mechanical execution. Renowned fabricator Andy Palmer of Palmer Coachworks led the bodywork, while Hot Rods and Hobbies, BB Stile, and Ed Pink Racing Engines contributed component expertise. Upon disassembly, 3057’s original Bertone coachwork remained straight, and well preserved. Palmer subtly reinforced the chassis, thereby improving panel fit and achieving astonishingly straight lines without altering the Miura’s iconic silhouette. Stephan rebuilt 3057’s mechanicals from the ground up, including the original Armstrong shocks and five-speed transaxle. He sourced all critical parts from Lamborghini Polo Storico for ultimate period accuracy, while BB Stile restored the interior using factory-correct upholstery, trim, and Italian-sourced carpets. Even the tires are period-correct Pirelli Cinturatos reproduced for the model’s 50th anniversary. The original matching-numbers engine was fully rebuilt by renowned engine builder Ed Pink. They replaced the cast pistons with forged, short-skirt graphite-coated units and blueprinted and balanced the entire rotating assembly. Stephan also restored the Weber carburetors and reinstalled its factory P400 oiling layout. With the powerplant transformed and chassis geometry perfected, the consignor applied his racing knowledge of chassis tuning to fully exploit 3057’s new structural enhancements—delivering dramatically improved precision, balance, and drivability. The completed car made its public debut at the 2016 The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, where it celebrated the Miura’s 50th anniversary by winning Best Restored Miura against the largest field of assembled Miuras in history. It followed that achievement at Concorso Italiano, where it swept all the major categories: Best Miura, Best Lamborghini, and the coveted Best in Show. In recognition of its quality, Automobili Lamborghini America presented 3057 with the Bull Award, the marque’s highest honor for a historic Lamborghini. In August 2023, 3057 returned to Monterey and again took Best Miura and Best in Show at Concorso Italiano—a rare repeat victory among vintage Lamborghinis. It marked a fitting conclusion to Jeff Stephan’s legendary restoration career and stands as a testament to what many consider the finest early Miura restoration in existence. With its unmatched provenance, world-class restoration, and sweeping concours success, Miura 3057 stands among the most significant early Miuras extant. It is unquestionably eligible for, and worthy of, entry into the world’s most prestigious concours events—and astute collectors will note that the list of elite venues at which this Lamborghini has appeared includes neither Pebble Beach nor Villa d’Este, where this magnificent Miura has yet to be shown.

The rarest and most sought-after variant of the beautiful E9 coupé, the 3.0 CSL arrived with aluminium doors, bonnet, and boot lid to help shed some 200 kilograms. Building 1,265 units allowed BMW to homologate race cars that would notch no fewer than six European Touring Car titles between 1973 and 1979. Just 500 CSLs were configured in right-hand drive, including this example that was completed by the factory in December 1972. Equipped with the potent Bosch D-Jetronic fuel injection system, the sonorous straight-six produced 200 PS. Please note that this car is fitted with what is believed to be a non-stamped factory replacement engine. The consigning owner, intent on finding a rare Ceylon Metallic car, imported chassis 2285250 to Finland in June 1999. The following year, a restoration and repaint was commissioned. Today, complete with the desirable Scheel sports seats, Petri three-spoke steering wheel, 14-inch CSL alloys, and electric rear windows, as well as being offered with a Birth Certificate by BMW Classic, this example would be a superb addition to any marque or motorsport-themed collection. 1972 BMW 3.0 CSL RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The final iteration of the DB6, the Mk2 - particularly in its rare Vantage performance specification - was its most powerful and refined while serving as the final expression of the legendary DB4/5/6 line. Subtle aesthetic updates such as flared wheel arches to accommodate wider wheels and a more luxurious interior complement the Vantage specification engine which features triple Weber carburetion, higher compression and more, producing an impressive factory-rated 325bhp. Delivered new to Mr. P.C.E Harper of Stevenage, the accompanying build sheet shows that this DB6 Mk2 Vantage was delivered to him in August of 1970. Further notes indicate the car was used frequently by Harper, with its 10,000 miles service carried out in July of 1971 at 11,552 miles. Remaining in the U.K. until the early 2000s, the car was converted to left hand drive by Post Vintage Engineers Limited in West Yorkshire just prior to being imported to Canada. Once it arrived in Canada, the car was restored by Howe Motor Works of Burlington, Ontario. Later, the car’s engine was rebuilt to 4.2-liter capacity, with this work also conducted by Howe Motor Works. Sold in 2014 by RM Sotheby’s and imported to the United States, the current owner acquired the car in 2018, moving it west to southern California, where it resides today. Deciding to have the car fully restored, the Mk2 was sent to Kevin Kay Restorations in Redding, California in the spring of 2021. Highly regarded Aston Martin experts, Kevn Kay Restorations is one of the premier marque specialists in the United States renowned for restoring David Brown-era Aston Martins to international concours level. No expense was spared during the comprehensive overhaul. Upon arrival at KKR, the Mk2 was inspected, stripped down to bare metal once the drivetrain was removed from the chassis. The engine was fully rebuilt and the existing manual gearbox was ultimately replaced with a Tremec T5 five-speed unit, a common upgrade for these cars and their predecessors. The suspension was rebuilt at all four corners while five wheels (including the spare) were fitted with new Dunlop Sport Classic tires. A new steering rack was installed along with a fresh stainless steel exhaust system. The interior was disassembled and retrimmed in tan leather, beautifully complementing the paintwork in charismatic California Sage. In total, all of the work carried out on the car by KKR totaled to over $580,000. Completed in the fall of 2023 by the current owner, having been shown just once at the Las Vegas Concours d’Elegance in 2023 where it was awarded with second in class honors. Celebrated by Aston Martin enthusiasts as the rarest and most desirable iteration of the DB6, the Mk 2 Vantage offers wonderful performance alongside a splendid level of comfort and practicality. A fabulous road trip companion perfectly capable of long-distance touring, a well-sorted DB6 represents a wonderful alternative to a Ferrari 330 or 365 GTC exuding British charm as only an Aston Martin can. Following its fabulous restoration, this example wants for nothing and is ready to be shown and enjoyed. 1970 Aston Martin DB6 Mk 2 Vantage RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Ford had been working on a turbocharged machine that could compete with the new breed of 'Group B' Rally cars like the Audi Sport Quattro, Peugeot 205 T16, the Lancia Delta and their remarkable 037. Unusually for Ford, the solution proved elusive and with the Escort RS 1700T failing miserably, they were forced to return to the drawing board and start all over again. The result was the RS200, however, Ford had now become 'late starters' and were effectively three years behind. The car was styled by Ghia and unusually, the bodywork was entrusted to a company who knew a fair bit about building fibreglass cars - Reliant. The chassis engineering was looked after by F1 gurus Tony Southgate and John Wheeler. Ford bosses demanded that it must have four-wheel drive and it was built around a space frame chassis, Kevlar bodywork and a potent mid-mounted engine courtesy of well proven race engine builder, Brian Hart. Add to this an innovative front mounted gearbox for better weight distribution and balance plus a variable torque split differential from Ferguson and you had a real beast of a car.The result was spectacular. At the peak of its powers in the hands of star drivers like Stig Blomqvist the larger 2.1-litre Evo engine was claimed to be pushing out around 650bhp, it was rumoured that even 700/800bhp was used. It looked like Ford finally had the package to win and things were looking promising after Kalle Grundell came home third in the Swedish Rally of 1986, however the fickle finger of fate was soon to be pointed at 'Group B'. Tragedy struck on the opening stage of the Portuguese Rally when Joaquim Santos lost control of his RS200 and sadly three people died and many others were injured. Marc Surer also crashed his RS200 in the Hessen Rally killing his co-driver. This was the beginning of the end for 'Group B' Rallying. Soon after that, Henri Toivonen and his co-driver Sergio Cresto lost their lives on the Tour de Corse when their Lancia Delta left the road. This really was the end of 'Group B' and it was also the end of an era for the fastest, most dangerous, most spectacular period in modern rallying. As a result, after just one year in competition, it was all over for the RS200 so it never got to show off its full potential, however it did prove that it had enormous promise, with many of the cars being spectacularly successful in Rallycross particularly in the hands of Norwegian Martin Schanche. FIA Homologation Rules for 'Group B' required the construction of at least 200 road-legal vehicles and Ford complied with this, building 200 units with enough spare parts for a further 20. Records indicate that 90 of these were eventually to leave the factory finished as road cars. We are pleased to offer this Ford RS200, chassis #0053, which was supplied new by Hendy Ford, Eastleigh to another retail Ford dealer at the time, Nicklens of Fordingbridge, under their parent company Shearing Builders Ltd. The car was first registered on 24th March 1987 and remained with the original owners until July 1997 when the Hendy Group bought it back through their Cosham branch. Since the car’s purchase by our vendor, it has remained within his private Collection of cars and has had no use apart from being put through an MOT that expired in August of 2020. Although the car has not been run during its current tenure it has been carefully stored within a dry heated environment and still stands in time warp condition. Showing just 8,877 miles on the odometer, warranted by its extensive collection of historic MOT and Tax certificates in addition to the aforementioned history, it still boasts its original leather-bound RS200 drivers and maintenance manual. In super original condition, this fabulous RS200 evokes memories of one of the most dramatic eras in rallying history and may well be the missing jigsaw piece in a Ford collector's puzzle. N.B. The car was purchased by our vendor in running condition, but it has since been effectively museum-stored in his heated storage and unused for 6 years - therefore some recommissioning will be needed prior to using the car. 1987 Ford RS200 Iconic Auctioneers Ltd 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 Ford had been working on a turbocharged machine that could compete with the new breed of 'Group B' Rally cars like the Audi Sport Quattro, Peugeot 205 T16, the Lancia Delta and their remarkable 037. Unusually for Ford, the solution proved elusive and with the Escort RS 1700T failing miserably, they were forced to return to the drawing board and start all over again. The result was the RS200, however, Ford had now become 'late starters' and were effectively three years behind. The car was styled by Ghia and unusually, the bodywork was entrusted to a company who knew a fair bit about building fibreglass cars - Reliant. The chassis engineering was looked after by F1 gurus Tony Southgate and John Wheeler. Ford bosses demanded that it must have four-wheel drive and it was built around a space frame chassis, Kevlar bodywork and a potent mid-mounted engine courtesy of well proven race engine builder, Brian Hart. Add to this an innovative front mounted gearbox for better weight distribution and balance plus a variable torque split differential from Ferguson and you had a real beast of a car.The result was spectacular. At the peak of its powers in the hands of star drivers like Stig Blomqvist the larger 2.1-litre Evo engine was claimed to be pushing out around 650bhp, it was rumoured that even 700/800bhp was used. It looked like Ford finally had the package to win and things were looking promising after Kalle Grundell came home third in the Swedish Rally of 1986, however the fickle finger of fate was soon to be pointed at 'Group B'. Tragedy struck on the opening stage of the Portuguese Rally when Joaquim Santos lost control of his RS200 and sadly three people died and many others were injured. Marc Surer also crashed his RS200 in the Hessen Rally killing his co-driver. This was the beginning of the end for 'Group B' Rallying. Soon after that, Henri Toivonen and his co-driver Sergio Cresto lost their lives on the Tour de Corse when their Lancia Delta left the road. This really was the end of 'Group B' and it was also the end of an era for the fastest, most dangerous, most spectacular period in modern rallying. As a result, after just one year in competition, it was all over for the RS200 so it never got to show off its full potential, however it did prove that it had enormous promise, with many of the cars being spectacularly successful in Rallycross particularly in the hands of Norwegian Martin Schanche. FIA Homologation Rules for 'Group B' required the construction of at least 200 road-legal vehicles and Ford complied with this, building 200 units with enough spare parts for a further 20. Records indicate that 90 of these were eventually to leave the factory finished as road cars. We are pleased to offer this Ford RS200, chassis #0053, which was supplied new by Hendy Ford, Eastleigh to another retail Ford dealer at the time, Nicklens of Fordingbridge, under their parent company Shearing Builders Ltd. The car was first registered on 24th March 1987 and remained with the original owners until July 1997 when the Hendy Group bought it back through their Cosham branch. Since the car’s purchase by our vendor, it has remained within his private Collection of cars and has had no use apart from being put through an MOT that expired in August of 2020. Although the car has not been run during its current tenure it has been carefully stored within a dry heated environment and still stands in time warp condition. Showing just 8,877 miles on the odometer, warranted by its extensive collection of historic MOT and Tax certificates in addition to the aforementioned history, it still boasts its original leather-bound RS200 drivers and maintenance manual. In super original condition, this fabulous RS200 evokes memories of one of the most dramatic eras in rallying history and may well be the missing jigsaw piece in a Ford collector's puzzle. N.B. The car was purchased by our vendor in running condition, but it has since been effectively museum-stored in his heated storage and unused for 6 years - therefore some recommissioning will be needed prior to using the car.

Excellence on road and rally - Mercedes 190 SL The Mercedes 190 SL perfectly illustrates the importance of listening to feedback. After the 300 SL was introduced, an American Mercedes importer noted that although many were interested, the 300 SL still proved too expensive for the average consumer looking for a weekend car. After speaking with headquarters in Germany, action was taken quickly; that same year the 190 SL (based on the Pontoon) was unveiled at the New York show. A year later, the production version was ready and presented in Geneva. Remarkably, the car was not positioned as a sports car, but as a comfortable two-seater. This proved a great success, with more than 25,000 units rolling off the German production line between 1955 and 1963. Onze Mercedes-Benz 190 SL is in 1957 origineel geleverd in Bergen, Noorwegen. Daar heeft ze een volledige restauratie ondergaan en langere tijd door een groot autoverzamelaar van genoten.. Deze restauratie is uitgevoerd met aandacht voor detail, met de intentie de auto weer in dezelfde kwaliteit en authenticiteit te maken zoals toen hij net de fabriek verliet.

The Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior Zagato is a rare and very special classic car that combines sportiness with an elegant, slightly futuristic body design. The model offered here was completed in March 1970 in Giallo oro (yellow gold) with a Skai nero interior and then delivered to Modena, Italy. In April 2018, the car was purchased by a Swiss collector in Italy and imported to Switzerland. Over CHF 84,000 was invested in the technology, including a complete overhaul of the engine and transmission, the brakes, alternator, and heater box, new bearings for the entire chassis, and much more. This beautiful Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior Zagato, with FIVA / ASI Certificato Di Identità and Alfa Romeo Classiche certification, is in top maintained and very original collector’s condition. The on-board folder with the original user manual, Italian papers and many other documents and invoices are available. The Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior Zagato is a rare and elegant sports car developed by Alfa Romeo in collaboration with the famous Italian coachbuilder Zagato. Manufactured as a lightweight, sporty coupé, it made its debut at the Turin Motor Show in 1969. Its design was groundbreaking: the pointed fastback look and clean lines later influenced many sports cars of the 1970s. 1970 Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior Zagato Lutziger Classic Cars AG If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Since 1967, AMG has achieved worldwide success in its customer-car business by following an extremely simple ethos: If you could pay for it, AMG could do it. Before its acquisition by Mercedes-Benz in 1993, AMG and its semi-independent franchisees around the world never made character judgments upon prospective customers. Unlike most marques, AMG did not care who you were, how many times you had done business previously, or how outrageous your customization requests might be—AMG cared least of all where your money came from…anyone with enough cash could be an AMG customer. The car offered here is not only a perfect example of AMG’s corporate ethos, but also the company’s skill in executing even the wildest requests of its demanding clientele. This wide-bodied 560 SEC 6.0—the “Marakaito Missile”—is, without reproach, one of AMG’s most highly personalized creations ever produced for a customer. But before digging into this car’s outrageous specification, let us briefly contextualize the mind-boggling expenditure represented by the general model offered here. First, the cost of its 6.0-liter DOHC engine conversion, and wide-body package from AMG—tacked onto the sticker price of a brand-new, flagship SEC Coupe—made this model one of the most expensive roadgoing marvels of the period. And that would be just for a “normal” 6.0-liter, wide-body SEC...but the Marakaito Missile is anything but normal, even so far as AMG builds go. This car’s original owner—reputedly a Japanese businessman of considerable means—demanded the absolute best. Cosmetically, the car has everything: A full aero kit, a staggered set of color-matched Aero III wheels, and a rear wing-type decklid spoiler. For the most extreme interior customization requests, AMG regularly partnered with leading upholstery specialists such as Gemballa, or in the case of this car, Carat Duchatelet of Belgium. And the interior is really where the specifications get wild. Absolutely every inch of the interior has been hand-trimmed in buffalo leather; the center console, dashboard, steering column, door panels, rear parcel shelf, headliner, and power-adjustable Recaro seats are all done up in upgraded leather (with green piping). Even the control panels for the seats are wrapped in leather! The lower dashboard is done in black buffalo leather, while the upper dashboard wears dark green buffalo leather which also finds its way to the matching set of grain-matched, leather-faced gauges with hand-painted indications. A full suite of burlwood trim pieces accentuates the cabin upholstery to an incredible standard of finish which even carries to the storage covers on the rear parcel shelf. No self-respecting AMG Japan customer would abstain from ordering a full Nakamichi sound system, and this car’s original owner was no exception. Though the car was evidently specified with every single performance option available, of particular interest among its long list of desire-inducing specifications is the M117/9 “transitional” AMG V-8 engine. Rarely seen, the M117/9 is an amalgamation of the earliest M119 block and heads with the latest M117 accessories, all cleverly mated together and stuffed with AMG internal components to supply approximately 375 horsepower. This powerplant represents a very temporary, transitional phase during which AMG’s world-class technicians were bridging the development gap between the outgoing M117 engine and the new M119 engine which Mercedes-Benz had debuted in late 1989. As such, compared to AMG’s earlier DOHC M117 motors these very late M117/9 hybrids enjoy greatly improved robustness, reliability, and serviceability. In November 2024, noted pre-merger AMG specialist Jonathan Hodgman of Blue Ridge Mercedes (Lilburn, Georgia) furnished the car with nearly $20,000 in mechanical freshening and NLA parts. Of particular note is a new set of custom-spec engine mounts, new spark plugs, a factory-correct AMG torque converter, distributor cap, as well as a host of miscellaneous seals, gaskets, lines, filters, and fluids for the engine and transmission. An AMG specialist for RM Sotheby’s recently commented, “the Marakaito Missile is full of AMG-commissioned, Carat-executed touches I’ve only seen rarely and certainly not together before. The attention to detail is absurd throughout, while the engine is very much a time-and-place kind of thing which was only in production for an extremely brief period. Considering that the Japanese economy collapsed only a few months after this car was built, I think it’s fair to say that this car was assembled at the perfect time, for the perfect AMG customer—someone who never asked ‘how much will that cost, or what will people think of me’…a true individual.” Presented today from a notable California-based collection, the Marakaito Missile presents an unrepeatable opportunity to acquire what is, rather inarguably, the most highly personalized example of AMG’s most impactful, era-defining poster car. 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEC 6.0 AMG 'Wide-Body' 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 Since 1967, AMG has achieved worldwide success in its customer-car business by following an extremely simple ethos: If you could pay for it, AMG could do it. Before its acquisition by Mercedes-Benz in 1993, AMG and its semi-independent franchisees around the world never made character judgments upon prospective customers. Unlike most marques, AMG did not care who you were, how many times you had done business previously, or how outrageous your customization requests might be—AMG cared least of all where your money came from…anyone with enough cash could be an AMG customer. The car offered here is not only a perfect example of AMG’s corporate ethos, but also the company’s skill in executing even the wildest requests of its demanding clientele. This wide-bodied 560 SEC 6.0—the “Marakaito Missile”—is, without reproach, one of AMG’s most highly personalized creations ever produced for a customer. But before digging into this car’s outrageous specification, let us briefly contextualize the mind-boggling expenditure represented by the general model offered here. First, the cost of its 6.0-liter DOHC engine conversion, and wide-body package from AMG—tacked onto the sticker price of a brand-new, flagship SEC Coupe—made this model one of the most expensive roadgoing marvels of the period. And that would be just for a “normal” 6.0-liter, wide-body SEC...but the Marakaito Missile is anything but normal, even so far as AMG builds go. This car’s original owner—reputedly a Japanese businessman of considerable means—demanded the absolute best. Cosmetically, the car has everything: A full aero kit, a staggered set of color-matched Aero III wheels, and a rear wing-type decklid spoiler. For the most extreme interior customization requests, AMG regularly partnered with leading upholstery specialists such as Gemballa, or in the case of this car, Carat Duchatelet of Belgium. And the interior is really where the specifications get wild. Absolutely every inch of the interior has been hand-trimmed in buffalo leather; the center console, dashboard, steering column, door panels, rear parcel shelf, headliner, and power-adjustable Recaro seats are all done up in upgraded leather (with green piping). Even the control panels for the seats are wrapped in leather! The lower dashboard is done in black buffalo leather, while the upper dashboard wears dark green buffalo leather which also finds its way to the matching set of grain-matched, leather-faced gauges with hand-painted indications. A full suite of burlwood trim pieces accentuates the cabin upholstery to an incredible standard of finish which even carries to the storage covers on the rear parcel shelf. No self-respecting AMG Japan customer would abstain from ordering a full Nakamichi sound system, and this car’s original owner was no exception. Though the car was evidently specified with every single performance option available, of particular interest among its long list of desire-inducing specifications is the M117/9 “transitional” AMG V-8 engine. Rarely seen, the M117/9 is an amalgamation of the earliest M119 block and heads with the latest M117 accessories, all cleverly mated together and stuffed with AMG internal components to supply approximately 375 horsepower. This powerplant represents a very temporary, transitional phase during which AMG’s world-class technicians were bridging the development gap between the outgoing M117 engine and the new M119 engine which Mercedes-Benz had debuted in late 1989. As such, compared to AMG’s earlier DOHC M117 motors these very late M117/9 hybrids enjoy greatly improved robustness, reliability, and serviceability. In November 2024, noted pre-merger AMG specialist Jonathan Hodgman of Blue Ridge Mercedes (Lilburn, Georgia) furnished the car with nearly $20,000 in mechanical freshening and NLA parts. Of particular note is a new set of custom-spec engine mounts, new spark plugs, a factory-correct AMG torque converter, distributor cap, as well as a host of miscellaneous seals, gaskets, lines, filters, and fluids for the engine and transmission. An AMG specialist for RM Sotheby’s recently commented, “the Marakaito Missile is full of AMG-commissioned, Carat-executed touches I’ve only seen rarely and certainly not together before. The attention to detail is absurd throughout, while the engine is very much a time-and-place kind of thing which was only in production for an extremely brief period. Considering that the Japanese economy collapsed only a few months after this car was built, I think it’s fair to say that this car was assembled at the perfect time, for the perfect AMG customer—someone who never asked ‘how much will that cost, or what will people think of me’…a true individual.” Presented today from a notable California-based collection, the Marakaito Missile presents an unrepeatable opportunity to acquire what is, rather inarguably, the most highly personalized example of AMG’s most impactful, era-defining poster car.

First seen in 1972, Giorgetto Giugiaro’s striking Alfetta fastback wedge design directly resulted from the opposing design requirements of delivering a car capable of carrying four people with luggage, modern looks and dynamic sports handling. It was required to replace the hugely successful 105 series cars which was a tough act to follow. The final design with its stunning looks is as beautiful today as it was some fifty years ago and its capability as a driver’s car has become legendary. Alfetta “little Alfa” in Italian, derived its name from the nickname of the 1951 Formula one, Tipo 159 Alfetta which also paired a transaxle layout to De Dion tube rear suspension. The rear de Dion transaxle (clutch and transmission) provided the new Alfetta with excellent weight distribution and lower centre of gravity, with these handling advantages widely acknowledged. Overall, it was a sophisticated and progressive set-up and one that delivered outstanding results when the Alfetta went into competition. During its life, it won events and championships across the globe both on track and in rally guise. They continue to successfully compete to this today in classic race events. When launched the Alfetta GT was powered by the 1.8 litre version of the Alfa DOHC four (taken from the previous 105 series cars). In 1976 this was discontinued in favour of 1.6 litre and 2.0 litre options. Over the subsequent years a number of updates were made to both engines and the appearance of the cars. In late 1980 Alfa Romeo coupled the cars excellent handling with its legendary V6 ‘Busso’ engine and the GTV 6 2.5 was born. The bonnet received a bulge to clear the top of the intake and became a defining feature. With Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection replacing carbs, the V6 was easier to start and retain its state of tune. The V6 received rave reviews and it found its true home in the GTV 6’s striking body where it could demonstrate its ample capabilities underlined with its race successes. The GTV6 cemented its position as an Alfa Romeo legend and its affection within the Alfa Romeo community is enduring. Our car; chassis 3003760. As confirmed by its Certificate of Origin our car was produced in December 1984 and delivered new to NSW in December 1985 in light grey metallic paint with its classic grey pinstripe interior. This is how the car presents today. These cars are rare, and most are tired and have lacked attention. By contrast, the most recent owner has lavished much attention and investment to make this car an excellent example and well sorted driving car. After purchase he had the car stripped to bare metal for paint. It was found to be in remarkably good condition with only new metal required in the front lower guards and one small area to the boot lid. The paint presents really well, and we think the original silver suits this car perfectly. The original plastic bumpers have also been painted in a darker metallic grey and whilst not original do enhance the overall presentation of the car providing a feeling of quality. As with many GTV6 cars, it has had an engine upgrade and now runs with a 3.0L motor from an Alfa Romeo 164. We believe this was done around 14 years ago and correspondence confirms it was done by a known specialist. Under current ownership and as part of the restoration mechanical work has been thorough and extensive including renovation or replacement of all key ancillary parts such as timing belt, leads, water pump, alternator, hoses and so on. A recent compression test shows excellent results. Other items attended to included (but not limited to) new brake pads and rotors, wheel bearings, new bushes, reconditioned steering rack, wheel bearings and master cylinders, all of which add up to make the car an excellent driving example. The original interior was in excellent presentation; however, the dash was restored, and an original unused steering wheel sourced at great cost. The front seats show some signs of fading, but this is being picky. They are incredibly comfortable to sit in, and the ‘net’ head rests are a particularly appealing feature. The compressor for the air-conditioning was removed when the new engine was installed however this could be put back in if required. The sunroof works as it should and the original headlining is in very good order. Overall, the interior is a lovely place to be. The instruments are fresh without any hint of age and all the electrical items work as it should. Even the clock keeps perfect time! The engine bay and ‘Busso V6’ is a visual treat with some detailing being done including hydro blasting the plenum chamber and cam covers. The wheels have been refurbished and present as new with fresh rubber, this includes the spare wheel too. The boot is as expected is excellent and the boot floor and wheel well are excellent. The underside of the car is clean and in fine order. Turn the key and the car starts with a familiar Alfa Romeo growl. Blip the throttle and the V6 provides its familiar appealing tone. Out on the open road this car is exceptional. The engine with its increase in capacity to 3.0 litres provides a useful lift in torque and power. This really does translate when you experience this car. Not only does it pull well below 3,000 rpm but after about 4,000 the car really does come alive and the tone of the V6 really is magical. It just pulls and pulls with a spine-tingling soundtrack. Ordinarily the gearboxes on GTV’s can be a little vague, however with this example it is precise and easy to work very quickly through the gears in complete confidence. Likewise, the brakes and steering are incredibly good, inspiring confidence when you want to push on. And in this car, you will want to do exactly that. It’s a marvel to drive and will not fail to put a smile on your dial. Accompanying the car is a thick folder of invoices and work done totalling over $35,000. We are informed that were many more invoices and value for time spent were simply not kept. It is registered in NSW on club plates and was recently driven by a known specialist mechanic and given a clean bill of health. It is now ready to be enjoyed by its next owner. This is one well sorted car and given the recent investment made represents good buying. 1984 Alfa Romeo Alfetta GTV6 Cool Classic Club If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Apart from the quirkiness possessed by all-Italian cars, it wouldn’t be unkind to describe the standard Fiat 131 as just another unremarkable family saloon, however Fiat’s decision in 1975 to contest the 'Group 4' Rally Championship using the 131 and invite input from Abarth and Bertone was a game-changer. The company’s involvement in international rallying brought untold publicity and success in the form of the 1977, 1978 and 1980 FIA World Rally Constructor’s titles, as well as the World Rally Drivers Championships in 1978 and 1980. Much to the delight of enthusiasts, it also brought 400 Stradale road-going versions, built to satisfy FIA 'Group 4' homologation requirements, on to the market. The alterations required to turn a bland saloon into an all-surface competition machine were significant and began with the chassis itself. Abarth engineers removed the rigid rear axle and replaced it with a fully independent MacPherson strut setup. They also developed a 2-litre twin-cam, in-line four-cylinder engine with a lightweight alloy 16-valve head, which sent power to the rear wheels through a 5-speed manual gearbox. The engine in the Stradale version breathed through a Weber double-barrel carburettor and produced a claimed 140bhp (single Weber 34ADF carburettor). Meanwhile, Bertone developed special bodywork, fitting a fibreglass bonnet and aluminium doors to reduce weight and adding wheel arches to accommodate larger 15'' Cromodoras and tyres, air intakes for cooling and spoilers for additional downforce. The results were spectacular, a cohesive design that turned the two-door shopping car into a veritable 1970s road-rocket. The car presented here is the result of one man's desire to create his ultimate road-going 131 Abarth Rally Stradale, commissioning some of the best Fiat/Abarth specialist engineers in the business to help him develop a very original 131 S Mirafiori 1600, which he had purchased directly from Abarth GMR Works Museum in Belgium in 2007. The car’s original bodywork was in excellent condition, with little rust and a very solid bodyshell. This was stripped back to bare metal and a very good GRP body kit was sourced (consisting of front and rear wheel arches, front panel and valence, roof spoiler, rear valance, bonnet scoop, boot spoiler) and hand-fabricated onto the bare metal, taking great care to ensure they were aligned correctly and of perfect fit – utilising an original car as a template! With guidance from the Scheda di Omologazione (which will accompany the car) referencing the engineering behind the factory-made examples, the suspension was sourced from a Lancia Delta Integrale (thus recreating the original specification independent rear suspension, with a 4.1 ratio rear differential). Other parts were hand-fabricated parts including the radiator, oil cooler, prop-shaft and coil-overs. The rear sub-frame was hand-built and has four adjustable arms and rose-joints, and the front braking system was bespoke-built by Hi Spec Motorsport Ltd. Wanting the imposing stance of the Rally Corsa, the wheels were a very important part of the build and subsequently, the car was built around them with a set of ATS wheels sourced from Germany, replicating the look of the Rally Corsa. The engine is a 2-litre Abarth 103TC unit fully rebuilt to a specification by Guy Croft Engineering and has adjustable electronic ignition, race camshafts and a Weber 44IDF/71 carburettor. An adjustable 'competition' ECU ensures the car runs smoothly when in road mode, but can be adjusted to its raw state should you be brave enough! The engine is mated to an Abarth 131 Racing TC 5-speed gearbox. The original Homologation Abarth Stradale interior was also purchased from the Abarth GMR Museum, one of only 400 sets ever produced, giving an authentic look and feel completed by an Abarth 3-spoke steering wheel and Alcantara headlining. This is a real opportunity to acquire a superbly engineered car, with proper integrity and diligence to its build. It was conceived to be a ‘keeper’ but sadly, due to a change in circumstances, this special car is now being offered for sale. It is absolutely ready-to-go and was recently magazine-featured by Auto Italia. Worthy of any collection of Italian cars, this is not to be missed. *Images are used with permission from (and much thanks to) Michael Ward of Auto Italia magazine, the world’s first specialist publication to focus on Italian automotive design, motoring heritage and engineering. 1978 Fiat 131 Abarth Rally Stradale Homage Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

They also developed a 2-litre twin-cam, in-line four-cylinder engine with a lightweight alloy 16-valve head, which sent power to the rear wheels through a 5-speed manual gearbox. The engine in the Stradale version breathed through a Weber double-barrel carburettor and produced a claimed 140bhp (single Weber 34ADF carburettor). Meanwhile, Bertone developed special bodywork, fitting a fibreglass bonnet and aluminium doors to reduce weight and adding wheel arches to accommodate larger 15'' Cromodoras and tyres, air intakes for cooling and spoilers for additional downforce. The results were spectacular, a cohesive design that turned the two-door shopping car into a veritable 1970s road-rocket. The car presented here is the result of one man's desire to create his ultimate road-going 131 Abarth Rally Stradale, commissioning some of the best Fiat/Abarth specialist engineers in the business to help him develop a very original 131 S Mirafiori 1600, which he had purchased directly from Abarth GMR Works Museum in Belgium in 2007. The car’s original bodywork was in excellent condition, with little rust and a very solid bodyshell. This was stripped back to bare metal and a very good GRP body kit was sourced (consisting of front and rear wheel arches, front panel and valence, roof spoiler, rear valance, bonnet scoop, boot spoiler) and hand-fabricated onto the bare metal, taking great care to ensure they were aligned correctly and of perfect fit – utilising an original car as a template! With guidance from the Scheda di Omologazione (which will accompany the car) referencing the engineering behind the factory-made examples, the suspension was sourced from a Lancia Delta Integrale (thus recreating the original specification independent rear suspension, with a 4.1 ratio rear differential). Other parts were hand-fabricated parts including the radiator, oil cooler, prop-shaft and coil-overs. The rear sub-frame was hand-built and has four adjustable arms and rose-joints, and the front braking system was bespoke-built by Hi Spec Motorsport Ltd. Wanting the imposing stance of the Rally Corsa, the wheels were a very important part of the build and subsequently, the car was built around them with a set of ATS wheels sourced from Germany, replicating the look of the Rally Corsa. The engine is a 2-litre Abarth 103TC unit fully rebuilt to a specification by Guy Croft Engineering and has adjustable electronic ignition, race camshafts and a Weber 44IDF/71 carburettor. An adjustable 'competition' ECU ensures the car runs smoothly when in road mode, but can be adjusted to its raw state should you be brave enough! The engine is mated to an Abarth 131 Racing TC 5-speed gearbox. The original Homologation Abarth Stradale interior was also purchased from the Abarth GMR Museum, one of only 400 sets ever produced, giving an authentic look and feel completed by an Abarth 3-spoke steering wheel and Alcantara headlining. This is a real opportunity to acquire a superbly engineered car, with proper integrity and diligence to its build. It was conceived to be a ‘keeper’ but sadly, due to a change in circumstances, this special car is now being offered for sale. It is absolutely ready-to-go and was recently magazine-featured by Auto Italia. Worthy of any collection of Italian cars, this is not to be missed. *Images are used with permission from (and much thanks to) Michael Ward of Auto Italia magazine, the world’s first specialist publication to focus on Italian automotive design, motoring heritage and engineering.

THE LAST REAL SPORTS JAGUAR? hen Jaguar unveiled its Type E at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1961, it was a complete surprise. Surprise, because no one had had any prior information about the future Grand Touring of the Coventry brand, and also because the Type E line totally captivated the crowds. A William Lyons design, a sporty yet comfortable) chassis and first-class performance were the hallmarks of the new Jaguar Type E. Not to mention the unbeatable price then, since it was three times cheaper than a Ferrari and half as much as a Maserati...Since the end of the war, Jaguar has become the symbol of British Grand Touring. The entire genealogy of XK roadsters (120 to 150) has largely contributed to building this sporting image in addition to the many victories in major competitions. But at the dawn of the 1960s, despite all their qualities, the XKs could not hide their age. So, in secret, Coventry is working on the replacement. On 15 March at the Geneva Motor Show, it is the crowd of journalists in the Parc des Eaux-Vives who can admire a preview of the new Coventry star. Then, it is the great crowd at the Geneva Motor Show. The comments and reactions are ecstatic. Every time an E-Type Jaguar appears in the street, there is a crowd. One the stream of stars and personalities who hastened to take orders for the beautiful English car: Françoise Sagan, Johnny Haliday, Bernard Consten, Charles Trenet, Pierre Bardinon, Robert Hirsch, not to mention the crowned heads. But not content with having a line to cut the blow, the Jaguar E-Type could boast of having a royal chassis for the time... The design of the Jaguar Type E has often been attributed to Sir William Lyons. But as in every automobile genesis, there is a captain at the helm, and a whole team behind him working in his shadow. Malcolm Sayer, an aerodynamicist from the aeronautics industry, assumes the authorship of the pencil stroke. Dressing a very light tubular chassis, our English designer gave the Jaguar Type E an immensely long and flat bonnet which quickly contributed to the magnetism operated on the public. The opening of the bonnet is total with the complete block tilting forward and fully uncovering the mechanics. At the front, a small grille looks like a suggestive half-open mouth, leaving the door open to the most fertile imaginations. Two round headlights are under globes and recessed. The rear is Fastback style with the roof sloping down to the slim taillights. The finish on board does not suffer from criticism, quite the contrary, and a large bootmakes it possible to envisage long journeys. Isn't this precisely the primary vocation of a GT? Jaguar owes so much to the XK engine that we can't talk without recalling its history. When the Jaguar XK120 roadster was presented at Earls Court in 1948, the English motor show, the love at first sight with the public was immediate. Its name "XK 120" comes from its engine and performance. Equipped with the XK engine, this Jaguar-designed in-line six, it gave the Jaguar XK120 Roadster a top speed of... 120 miles per hour! Born in 3.4 litres with its cast iron block and an aluminum cylinder head, its distribution was done by two overhead camshafts. Not bad in 1948 ! For its Jaguar Type E, Coventry equipped it with a rebored version of the XK engine. The in-line 6 now has a displacement of 3.8 litres (87x106 mm) and retains its character of a long-stroke engine. This means more torque from the lowest revs. The power announced by the factory is 265 hp SAE at 5500 rpm and a torque of 35.9 mkg at 5500 rpm. With a top speed of 240 km/h and a 0-100 km/h time of less than 8 seconds many motorists in their 'modern' cars are surprised by the good health of the E-Types. The Jaguar Type E has been the object of the most careful attention for its chassis. Indeed, many solutions have been taken from the competition. Thus, for the new GT of Coventry the chassis engineers (Bob Knight and Norman Dewis) have imagined a cradle independent of the hull. It houses the rear suspension, brakes and differential. It is then attached to the body by V-shaped silent-blocks. This isolates the passenger compartment from any interference from suspension and/or road irregularities. For the front part, it is almost a "copy and paste" of the Type D race structure. Two superimposed triangulated levers, including the lower one which houses the front end of the longitudinal torsion arm.To slow down its sharp-clawed feline, Jaguar adopted the principle of disc brakes successfully inaugurated at the Le Mans 24 Hours in June 1953 with the Jaguar Type C. All four wheels are equipped with them and a separate dual braking system is fitted. With a contained weight of 1,220 kg, the Jaguar Type E boasts a very flattering power-to-weight ratio that allows it to claim the status of a true sports car. The handling is very modern and it is above all the ride comfort that is astonishing. It's easy to see why Jaguar would make a name for itself in the chassis business. In 1962 3500 coupes were produced out of a total production of 7667 coupes in the 3.8L version. This E Type is certainly the most desirable of all. Its line makes it a collector's item of choice, its technical solutions and its genesis still allow it to be a modern car and its engine, which seemed archaic at the time, now stands out thanks to its reliability. Our Jaguar E Type 3,8L Fixed Head Coupé was delivered new in the States in February 1963 to Mr and Mrs Garlock. It stayed there most of its life before reaching the UK where a very ambitious restoration was started. Over 2 years it has been painstakingly prepared to ultimate fast road specifications with a specific attention to period esthetic and improved comfort for rallies and long-distance run. An impressive file of pictures and invoices* describes the great work achieved by some of the best Jaguar specialists such as Guy Broad, Pendine Works, Project shop… The result is a car that would for sure drive you fast to the lawns of a selective concourse where it would be noticed…even driven hard and covered with dead flies. *Sum up of the work achieved Engine Complete strip and rebuild, including acid stripping the block.
