Following a painstaking recent restoration, this is a concours-ready example of perhaps the best-looking Jaguar E-type of all – the Series 1 3.8 Fixed-Head Coupé. Chassis number 887371 was built on 1 November 1962 and was originally finished in Cream with a Red interior. It was dispatched on 10 November to Jaguar Cars New York, but little is known of its subsequent life in the US. It’s thought to have spent some time in Florida during the 1980s before ending up with a collector on the East Coast who intended to have it restored. Sadly, he still hadn’t got around to having that work done by the time the E-type was offered for sale in 2019. The car had been painted green at some point but it was still complete and matching-numbers. Having been shipped back across the Atlantic and offered for sale in the UK, it was acquired by a British enthusiast and entrusted to E-type specialist Gibsons Classics in Burton-upon-Trent for a ‘nut and bolt’ rebuild. After the car had been completely stripped down, it was decided to replace areas such as the floors, front bulkhead, top scuttle panel, inner wheelarches and rear lower quarter panels, with new panels being sourced from Martin Robey. Once the bodywork had been taken back to bare metal and repaired as necessary, a respray was carried out in Gunmetal Grey by Coventry Automotive Refinishing at a cost of £14,000 – and the bonnet has subsequently been coated with a Paint Protection Film. A long-manifold, big-bore, stainless-steel exhaust system from Classicfabs was fitted – complete with a heat shield for the alternator conversion – and the differential was reconditioned as part of a complete overhaul of the IRS unit. During the restoration it was decided to fit an alternative period correct 3.8-litre engine-block, which along with the original cylinder head, was prepared by Rob Beere Racing. RBR Sportsman con-rods were fitted, the crankshaft was reground, and a new flywheel was matched to it. The original engine-block (R8575-9) has stayed with the car and is offered as part of the sale, and the E-type retains its original Moss gearbox (EB7723JS). An upgraded cooling system was specified, complete with Kenlowe fan, the electrics were converted to negative earth, and a modern starter motor and high-pressure fuel pump were added. Having been converted to right-hand drive – and a smaller wood-rim steering wheel fitted – the Jaguar was retrimmed by AM Automotive Interiors. After the finishing touches had been applied, the car was MoT’d during the summer of 2021 and returned to the road for the first time in more than 30 years, having been given the registration number 301 XVK. Now being offered for sale at The Classic Motor Hub, this beautifully presented Jaguar Series 1 E-type would be equally at home on the concours field as it would be showing off its immense performance on a cross-country run. The suspension features adjustable dampers and the wheels and tyres have also been upgraded, giving this E-type a much-improved level of ride and handling. All of the expenditure from its restoration is carefully catalogued in the car’s history file, there is a complete photographic record of the work carried out, and it also comes with a Heritage Certificate. MODEL HISTORY Still recognised as a landmark model, it’s little wonder that the Jaguar Series 1 E-type is one of the few cars ever to have been displayed in the New York Museum of Modern Art. It was introduced at the 1961 Geneva Salon, and aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer came up with one of the most beautiful automotive shapes ever created. At a time when 100mph was still a significant figure, the E-type offered 150mph performance from its triple-carburettor, 265bhp, 3.8-litre straight-six engine. Beneath the skin, it owed much to the Le Mans-winning D-type and shared that car’s basic layout of a monocoque centre section with a subframe carrying the engine and front suspension. At the rear, independent suspension was fitted when many of Jaguar’s rivals still employed a traditional live axle. With the marque having pioneered the use of disc brakes in the early 1950s, it came as no surprise that the E-type featured them on all four wheels. Although it was first and foremost a road car, and Jaguar was far too busy meeting demand to get involved with a full competition programme, the E-type proved to be an effective racer. In 1961 it was quick enough to scare anyone in a Ferrari 250 GT SWB, and the following year E-types finished fourth and fifth overall at Le Mans. In 1963, Jaguar produced a short run of 12 Lightweights, which were able to go toe-to-toe with Ferrari’s GTO. The E-type was offered at a fraction of the cost of its rivals from Ferrari and Aston, and when The Motor road-tested one in 1961 it concluded: ‘The sheer elegance of line which Jaguar seem able to produce by total disregard for fashion trends is allied to a combination of performance, handling and refinement that has never been equalled at the price and, we would think, very seldom surpassed at any price.’ Production was slow to get under way during 1961, but thereafter modifications came thick and fast. A 4.2-litre engine was introduced in 1964, and the heavily revised Series 2 followed in 1968. The V12-engined Series 3 then took the model through to the end of its production run in 1974. 1962 Jaguar Series 1 E-TYPE FHC The Classic Motor Hub If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Alfa Romeo Spider Series 2 was launched to the public in 1970 with many exterior and interior changes, the most significant of which was the Kamm tail rear which greatly improved luggage space. Produced until the early 1990s, the spider is considered one of Alfa’s greatest successes. The Spider shares many of the Alfa Giulia mechanicals including the twin cam inline four-cylinder engine and independent front and solid axle rear suspension. The Spider was one of the first sports cars to incorporate front and rear crumple zones. In 1971 Alfa Romeo introduced the more powerful 2000 Spider. Powered by a 1,962cc twin cam engine mated to a five speed manual gearbox, this gave the Spider a top speed of more than 120mph from its 132hp engine. The Alfa Romeo Spider 2000 offered for sale at Autostorcio is a 1989 example and is finished in Alfa Rosso with a Black hood and Black interior trim. This lovely example was imported and registered in the United Kingdom by Bell and Colvill Ltd of Surrey and has covered an indicated 45,693 miles. Having been maintained to a very high standard with recent works including a full service, brake overhaul and new tyres being fitted. Offered for sale with an extensive history file including a current V5 certificate, numerous invoices, previous MOT certificates and other related material. A truly unique opportunity to own such an iconic Italian classic, which will only appreciate further over time. 1989 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider Autostorico Partners LLP If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Fulvia Sport was a fastback two-seater based on Fulvia Coupé mechanicals and clothed in curvaceous and lightweight bodywork styled by Ercole Spada of the Zagato design house in Milan, known for the immortal Aston Martin DB4 Zagato. Powered by an innovative, 1298cc, OHC, narrow-angle V4 engine and featuring double-wishbone independent suspension, the nimble Zagato-bodied cars proved themselves well in motorsport, scoring highly in events such as the Sebring 12 hours, the Daytona 24 hours and winning the 1972 International Rally Championship outright. In a contemporary road test, Road & Track magazine described the Fulvia as "a precision motorcar, an engineering tour-de-force.” This particular 1.3-litre Fulvia Sport Zagato was first registered on the 3rd of April 1969 and is believed to be one of only a handful of original right-hand drive examples known to still exist and one of the last ‘real’ Lancias built before FIAT’s takeover in late 1969. It has been sympathetically restored to a superb level with the emphasis being on originality and retains all of the signature Fulvia Zagato features unique to the Series 1 including the alloy side-opening bonnet, alloy door skins and spare wheel hatch. The bodywork was taken back to bare metal and fully prepared before being professionally refinished in many coats of Lancia Blue Mendoza. The engine was fully rebuilt with all new pistons and bearings, the twin Solex carburettors were refinished, the original Dunlop disc brakes were rebuilt and the suspension and underpinnings received equal attention. Naturally the interior was not left out and was retrimmed and refurbished as required with the seats and door cards benefiting from period-correct, fresh Tan Vinyl. The little Lancia is accompanied by a comprehensive history file which includes a continuous ownership trace detailing just four recorded keepers until 1978 and then the same family ownership until 2021, as well as further documentation helping to support the indicated mileage of 48,944. Ex-works ‘HF’ rally cars aside, the Sport Zagato is the most desirable and collectable of all the Fulvias and undeniably one of the most striking designs of its era. These period, coach-built motor cars are becoming more and more sought after and this rare example seems very reasonably guided considering the amount of time, money and love invested in it. 1969 Lancia Fulvia Sport Zagato Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

In 2020, Gerhard Berger, who has presided over the destiny of the Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft for a number of years, confirmed that the DTM was abandoning Class 1 regulations and moving to a GT3 format in 2021, based exclusively on private teams. The DTM as a touring car championship, as we have always known it, is therefore dead, even if in recent years the cars have looked more like prototypes than touring cars. So it's time to look back at the golden age of the DTM, the 80s and 90s. A unique atmosphere Frenzied grandstands, singing, flags everywhere, smoke bombs, foghorns blaring to burst eardrums... no, we're not in the stands at a Bayern Munich-Borussia Dortmund match, but in a DTM race at Hockenheim. You might say that it's all the same, because on the famous circuit in Baden-Württemberg, the heart of the circuit is called the Stadium! The Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft was founded in 1984 (although it was called the Deutsche Produktionswagen Meisterschaft) by adopting the Group A regulations of the European championship, with private teams. It succeeded the DRM championship, which had enjoyed its heyday in the 1970s with the monstrous Group 5 BMW 320 Turbo, Ford Capri Zakspeed Turbo and Porsche 956, which were closer to prototypes than to production cars (already). In the inaugural season, the field was extremely varied, with the BMW 635 CSI and 325i, the Rover Vitesse, the Volvo 240 Turbo and the Alfa Romeo GTV all competing. The first race took place at Zolder, Belgium, and the championship was won by Volker Strycek, whose BMW 635 CSi was the first DTM winner in 1984. The first race was held at Zolder in Belgium. The DTM was fairly permissive in terms of regulations, paving the way for numerous modifications that made the saloons increasingly spectacular and delighted the already renowned tuners such as Schnitzer, AMG, Zakspeed and Alpina. At the end of the 80s, it was the time of the Mercedes 190 E Cosworth, BMW M3 and Ford Sierra Cosworth RS 500 Turbo competing on the track. Emulation was strong. When BMW brought out its revolutionary M3 in 1987, Mercedes, stung to the quick, retaliated with the 190 Evolution and then the Evolution 2, to which Munich responded with the M3 Evo. 1 tonne and nearly 400 bhp, door slams, jumps on the vibrators, sparks everywhere, it glides, it jerks, it whirs. Kolossal! The Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft , or DTM, was beloved by motorsport fans for the monsters that filled its starting grids. European manufacturers such as Volvo, Audi and Mercedes-Benz used the DTM to transform their production sports coupes into true racing machines capable of outrageous performance. BMW won the DTM twice with the popular E30 M3, with Eric van de Poele taking the crown in 1987 for the Zakspeep team, and Roberto Ravaglia winning it all in 1989 for Schnitzer in an M3 Evo. Zakspeed in the late 1980s (1987-1989) Foundation & origin Founded in 1968 by Erich Zakowski, a car mechanics enthusiast, and based in Niederzissen, a few kilometres from the Nürburgring in the German Eifel region. Initially renowned for its Ford preparations (Escort RS, Capri, etc.) in Group 2 and Group 5. Main activities at the time: Formula 1 (1985-1989) Zakspeed was one of the few independent teams to build its own F1 engine at the time. Car: Zakspeed 871/881/891, Zakspeed 1500/4 turbo engine (then naturally-aspirated Yamaha in 1989). Notable drivers: Martin Brundle, Bernd Schneider, Piercarlo Ghinzani. Touring / Endurance (DTM, Nürburgring 24h) Alongside F1, Zakspeed entered BMW M3 E30s in DTM and endurance racing from 1987, with much more solid results. Cars: BMW M3 Group A, prepared in the Zakspeed workshops. Drivers: Steve Soper, Dieter Quester Steve Soper, Dieter Quester, Franz Dufter, Markus Oestreich... Results: DTM: several podiums, very competitive against Mercedes and Ford. Nürburgring 24h: 6th place in 1989, best non-official BMW Motorsport M3. The BMW M3 E30 entered by Zakspeed in the 1988 DTM (Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft) season is one of the most emblematic touring cars of its era. Designed to dominate touring car racing, the M3 combined agility, reliability and performance in a compact, well-balanced chassis. Markus Oestreich A German driver with an aggressive and consistent style, Markus Oestreich raced for Zakspeed in the DTM with this M3 during the 1988 season. He put in several solid performances against fierce competition, notably the Mercedes 190E and the Ford Sierra RS500. Although he did not win the championship, Oestreich scored important points and contributed to the M3's reputation in the championship. Hockenheim, September 1989. Light falls softly on the paddock. The air smells of petrol, hot tyres and dust from the transport trucks. The din of the engines has given way to the silence that is typical of the end of a race day: a mixture of pent-up tension and noble fatigue. At the end of the driveway, leaning against its hydraulic stand, sits a compact car with widened wings. Its factory white is streaked with traces of rubber, chipped insects and paint chips. It's a BMW M3 Group A, but here we only refer to it by its initials: the M3. A machine like no other It doesn't have the arrogance of a racing car. It doesn't try to dominate space. It gently imposes its presence. Its look - those familiar round twin headlights - seems more focused than aggressive. Its spoiler, adjusted to the millimetre, doesn't shout. It suggests. It shows nothing, but suggests everything. A mechanic wipes the bonnet. He doesn't look at it like a machine. He knows it like he knows a horse or an old guitar. He knows that this car has its good days and its bad days. He knows that it likes a clean attack, late braking and long, lean corners. He also knows that it doesn't like rough handling. No sloppy heel-and-toe. No dry transfers. She has to be earned. The sound of men A little further on, in the Zakspeed tent, Steve Soper is having a quiet chat with his engineer. They're not talking about engines. They're talking about feeling. About that little flutter at the back as they entered Sachs Kurve. About the hesitation to accelerate again when the rear tyres start to grease. He's not talking about the car as a tool. He's talking about it. In the paddock, the M3 is a kind of presence. It doesn't just wait for the next round. It inhabits the place. At once discreet and magnetic. An old steward passes by, stops, looks at her, then nods. He must have seen a lot of cars. But this one he respects. A driver for men It doesn't need a big name to exist. It likes demanding drivers, not showmen. Whether you're Ravaglia or a young hopeful from the BMW school, she treats everyone the same: she'll tell you exactly what you give her. Nothing more, nothing less. Nothing less. And then there's that noise. That noise. When she slowly pulls out of first gear to go weighing, the S14 engine sputters and then revs up into a metallic, almost raging sound. At high revs, it's like a war clarinet: dry, linear, intoxicating. A soundtrack of discipline. No showboating, no turbo, no panic. Just controlled tension. Myths are always born in silence It's in moments like these, when the crowd has gone, that myths take root. When a silhouette, commonplace to the uninitiated, tells those in the know the story of a whole decade of pure driving, subtle technique and mechanical elegance. The M3 didn't invent racing. It wasn't the most powerful. It never crushed the competition by sheer force. But it was the one we listened to, the one we trained, the one we feared - the one we respected. It's sleeping there now, between two drives, bonnet ajar, still with a little warmth in the sheet metal. And those who drive by know: this car has said it all. And it hasn't finished talking Some racing anecdotes about the #33 Zakspeed BMW M3 E30 2.5L DTM (Soper-Quester-Dufter) at the 1989 Nürburgring 24 Hours: ‘Going from turbo to natural’ Steve Soper described the radical change between his turbocharged Sierra Cosworth (~550 hp) and this M3 (~300 hp): "The difference was huge... You had to keep the momentum and be nice and gentle with it. If you got nervous... she wasn't quick."  This gentle handling was crucial on the Nordschleife, in order to preserve grip, brakes and reliability. Local Zakspeed team advantage Engineer Steve adds: "We won... because Zakspeed was based at the Nürburgring, literally on the other side of the road. All our development work was done there. Having a workshop nearby meant that the car could be set up specifically for the northern loop, a major advantage for the race. Solidity of the S14 unit and thermal chugging On the M3 E30 race car, the S14 engine had a reputation for being high revving (up to 8,500 rpm). There were frequent episodes of leakage from the exhaust welds: ‘the exhaust pipes were deforming by 25 mm at full load; a simple change of silent-blocks stabilised them’. The problem was rectified in time for the race, a testament to BMW's responsive engineering. Old-school cockpit intact: Despite the extreme preparation, the cockpit remained spartan: analogue dashboard, mechanical gear lever, little in the way of ergonomics, just the essentials in a streamlined cabin around the roll bar. Soper stresses that it was a pure formula: driver, speed and reliability above all. With this Zakspeed M3, they set the fastest lap in class with a time of 9:29.380. The BMW M3 E30 is still one of the most revered models in the history of the DTM. Its 1988 Zakspeed version, with Oestreich at the wheel, embodies the pinnacle of German racing engineering in the 1980s, with a car that is balanced, responsive and built for the most demanding circuits. 1988 BMW M3 Zakspeed DTM Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The DTM as a touring car championship, as we have always known it, is therefore dead, even if in recent years the cars have looked more like prototypes than touring cars. So it's time to look back at the golden age of the DTM, the 80s and 90s. A unique atmosphere Frenzied grandstands, singing, flags everywhere, smoke bombs, foghorns blaring to burst eardrums... no, we're not in the stands at a Bayern Munich-Borussia Dortmund match, but in a DTM race at Hockenheim. You might say that it's all the same, because on the famous circuit in Baden-Württemberg, the heart of the circuit is called the Stadium! The Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft was founded in 1984 (although it was called the Deutsche Produktionswagen Meisterschaft) by adopting the Group A regulations of the European championship, with private teams. It succeeded the DRM championship, which had enjoyed its heyday in the 1970s with the monstrous Group 5 BMW 320 Turbo, Ford Capri Zakspeed Turbo and Porsche 956, which were closer to prototypes than to production cars (already). In the inaugural season, the field was extremely varied, with the BMW 635 CSI and 325i, the Rover Vitesse, the Volvo 240 Turbo and the Alfa Romeo GTV all competing. The first race took place at Zolder, Belgium, and the championship was won by Volker Strycek, whose BMW 635 CSi was the first DTM winner in 1984. The first race was held at Zolder in Belgium.

This is Bob Akin's famous Le Mans car of 1982. It was one of the wildest Porsche 935s of the post-factory era, and also one of the fastest. From 1977 the Porsche 935 was the car to have if you wanted to win IMSA or world championship events, but by 1982 it became very clear that a standard 935 was no longer competitive. The Porsche factory built its last 935 in 1979, so it was left to private teams to develop the cars with more aggressive aerodynamics and chassis designs. Bob Akin knew if he wanted to win, he would have to come up with something totally radical for the 1982 season. Akin commissioned Chuck Gaa of Gaaco to design and build a "Super GTP 935". To improve aerodynamics and increase the straight-line speed of the new car a Lola T600 GTP nose was used. A new purpose built monocoque bonded aluminum chassis was constructed combining the best of the new GTP technology with the proven power and reliability of the Porsche 935 mechanicals. According to the rules, the windshield and roof section of a standard Porsche 930 still had to be used. To improve airflow even further the entire roof structure was tilted to put the windshield at a better angle. Due to its complexity and unique design, the car was delivered late after the season had already begun. It made its first appearance at Lime Rock in May, which served as a test for Le Mans. At the 24 Hours of Le Mans in June the car’s design came into its own and showed tremendous straight-line speed down the famous Mulsanne Straight. Unfortunately Akin and co-drivers David Cowart and Kemper Miller only lasted two hours before a malfunction with the reserve gas tank sidelined the car. After Le Mans the car returned to the United States to compete in the remainder of the 1982 IMSA season. After much testing and development the car finished fourth at Mid-Ohio with Akin and Hurley Haywood driving, and seventh at Road Atlanta with Akin and Derek Bell. The car’s final appearance would be at the Pocono 500. The car sat in Akins shop until 1999 when Jacques Rivard purchased the car and performed a complete restoration, bringing the car back to better than new condition. All suspension components were crack checked, and new components were used where needed. G&S Autoworks completely rebuilt the engine and transmission. It now is one of the most potent 935s in vintage racing. Canepa completed a full inspection and detail on the car. It is in spectacular condition and is eligible to compete in historics worldwide, including the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion.

He switched to road racing, acquiring his amateur SCCA national racing license in 1959 and hired legendary sports car racer John Fitch as his driving coach. Proving a quick study, he piloted an Alfa Veloce Spyder to his first win in only his third race at Bridgehampton. He drove a front engine Volpini Formula Junior in 1960, then switched to a 1957 Ferrari 500 TRC for several races during the early part of the 1961 season, before retiring in July of that year, to concentrate on the family business. Almost by accident, Akin returned to racing in 1973, after accepting an invitation from his friend, Sam Posey, to drive a few laps in his Mercedes-Benz 300SL, at the July 4th, 1973 Vintage Sports Car Club of America event at Lime Rock Park. Within a month, he was back at it in earnest, driving a Lotus 11 in vintage racing events until switching to the 1959 Cooper-Monaco that would prove to be his favorite racer, in 1975. In 1978, he purchased a Porsche RSR Carrera thinking it would be fun to run in the 1978 12 Hours of Sebring. They ran what was considered to be a test run at Daytona, before the Sebring event, then continued on racing a full season that would include racing at Le Mans with a Porsche 935 Turbo. Now solidly back in the drivers seat, compiled an impressive list of achievements, highlighted by a 6-Hour win at Watkins Glen, '79 and '86 12 Hours of Sebring victories, two second-place finishes in the '81 and '82 24 Hours of Daytona, six appearances, including a fourth overall in '84, at Le Mans. He won the IMSA Camel GT series in 1986 and had four top-10 finishes in IMSA Endurance Championship points standings. He was also a member and former president of the prestigious Road Racing Drivers Club. Akin retired from professional racing in 1991 but stayed quite active in the sport. He returned to racing his beloved vintage and historic cars, competed in the Fastmasters racing series, wrote articles for Road & Track magazine, and did on-air commentary for Speedvision, TBS and ESPN television. Following his retirement from Hudson Wire Company, in 1995, Akin also devoted his time to the management of Bob Akin Motorsports (Now Hudson Historics), which specializes in the restoration and race preparation of historic race cars. On April 25, 2002, he was gravely injured in a violent crash while testing a powerful 1988 Nissan GTP ZX-Turbo for the Walter Mitty Challenge for historic cars at Road Atlanta. He was airlifted to Grady Memorial Hospital after the accident. After briefly rallying, the 66 year old succumbed due to complications from his injuries on April 29. 1982 Porsche 935 Bob Akin L1 Canepa If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

To improve aerodynamics and increase the straight-line speed of the new car a Lola T600 GTP nose was used. A new purpose built monocoque bonded aluminum chassis was constructed combining the best of the new GTP technology with the proven power and reliability of the Porsche 935 mechanicals. According to the rules, the windshield and roof section of a standard Porsche 930 still had to be used. To improve airflow even further the entire roof structure was tilted to put the windshield at a better angle. Due to its complexity and unique design, the car was delivered late after the season had already begun. It made its first appearance at Lime Rock in May, which served as a test for Le Mans. At the 24 Hours of Le Mans in June the car’s design came into its own and showed tremendous straight-line speed down the famous Mulsanne Straight. Unfortunately Akin and co-drivers David Cowart and Kemper Miller only lasted two hours before a malfunction with the reserve gas tank sidelined the car. After Le Mans the car returned to the United States to compete in the remainder of the 1982 IMSA season. After much testing and development the car finished fourth at Mid-Ohio with Akin and Hurley Haywood driving, and seventh at Road Atlanta with Akin and Derek Bell. The car’s final appearance would be at the Pocono 500. The car sat in Akins shop until 1999 when Jacques Rivard purchased the car and performed a complete restoration, bringing the car back to better than new condition. All suspension components were crack checked, and new components were used where needed. G&S Autoworks completely rebuilt the engine and transmission. It now is one of the most potent 935s in vintage racing. Canepa completed a full inspection and detail on the car. It is in spectacular condition and is eligible to compete in historics worldwide, including the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion.

He switched to road racing, acquiring his amateur SCCA national racing license in 1959 and hired legendary sports car racer John Fitch as his driving coach. Proving a quick study, he piloted an Alfa Veloce Spyder to his first win in only his third race at Bridgehampton. He drove a front engine Volpini Formula Junior in 1960, then switched to a 1957 Ferrari 500 TRC for several races during the early part of the 1961 season, before retiring in July of that year, to concentrate on the family business. Almost by accident, Akin returned to racing in 1973, after accepting an invitation from his friend, Sam Posey, to drive a few laps in his Mercedes-Benz 300SL, at the July 4th, 1973 Vintage Sports Car Club of America event at Lime Rock Park. Within a month, he was back at it in earnest, driving a Lotus 11 in vintage racing events until switching to the 1959 Cooper-Monaco that would prove to be his favorite racer, in 1975. In 1978, he purchased a Porsche RSR Carrera thinking it would be fun to run in the 1978 12 Hours of Sebring. They ran what was considered to be a test run at Daytona, before the Sebring event, then continued on racing a full season that would include racing at Le Mans with a Porsche 935 Turbo. Now solidly back in the drivers seat, compiled an impressive list of achievements, highlighted by a 6-Hour win at Watkins Glen, '79 and '86 12 Hours of Sebring victories, two second-place finishes in the '81 and '82 24 Hours of Daytona, six appearances, including a fourth overall in '84, at Le Mans. He won the IMSA Camel GT series in 1986 and had four top-10 finishes in IMSA Endurance Championship points standings. He was also a member and former president of the prestigious Road Racing Drivers Club. Akin retired from professional racing in 1991 but stayed quite active in the sport. He returned to racing his beloved vintage and historic cars, competed in the Fastmasters racing series, wrote articles for Road & Track magazine, and did on-air commentary for Speedvision, TBS and ESPN television. Following his retirement from Hudson Wire Company, in 1995, Akin also devoted his time to the management of Bob Akin Motorsports (Now Hudson Historics), which specializes in the restoration and race preparation of historic race cars. On April 25, 2002, he was gravely injured in a violent crash while testing a powerful 1988 Nissan GTP ZX-Turbo for the Walter Mitty Challenge for historic cars at Road Atlanta. He was airlifted to Grady Memorial Hospital after the accident. After briefly rallying, the 66 year old succumbed due to complications from his injuries on April 29.

Originally in Suede Green with Tan leather, it was built for the American market it was delivered in 1955 to its first owner, B K Rees in Marietta Georgia.

Changing the colour to the Red with black leather interior you see today. We have a number of pictures of the vehicle while this work was undertaken. It has had various works completed over the years since then, and we have a folder full of receipts. Most recently it had nearly £40,000 spent on it at Twyford Moors which includes: An upgraded 5 speed gearbox, Fitting of electronic ignition Carb conversion for E10 fuel Front brake disc conversion Polybushed front suspension Adjustable shock absorbers New alloy radiator Hi-torque starter motor New clutch and flywheel Condition wise with it being nearly 40 years since the re-spray the bodywork is showing some signs of patina in places and mechanically being an old Jag that are some oil leaks from the engine area, although we do expect these to improve with use as the car has been in storage for a while. Jonathon's comments: 'This is a great example of an XK140 that although isn't 100% 'original', has been made a much nicer car to drive. The 5 speed box is a big improvement as is the front disc conversion. The XK140 to drive is a lovely car, it has enough power to keep up with modern traffic and makes a great noise.

General History Unveiled at the 1961 Geneva Motor Show, the Jaguar E-type delivered a totally new approach to sports cars. Stunning design, unrivaled performance, and racing lineage made the E-Type an immediate sensation. With its beautiful lines and surprisingly affordable price, the E-Type garnered its iconic status where it continues to reign at the top of collector and enthusiast lists. Independent front and rear suspension, disc brakes all around (inboard at the rear to reduce unsprung weight), and Jaguar’s legendary twin-cam inline six-cylinder engine were just part of the allure. Sales were brisk with growing interest in both American and European markets. Although the E-Type would continue into the mid 1970s, enthusiasts today remain steadfast regarding their admiration for the Series 1 models as one of the most beautiful and capable sports cars ever conceived. Current Condition and Ownership According to original sales documentation accompanying this Jaguar, this remarkable original example was purchased in 1967 and delivered to Fretwell Motor Company, Oklahoma City, OK. Invoiced to the first owner, Elvy R. Hopkins on June 27, 1967, the car was sold with an AM/FM radio, white wall tires, chrome wheels, tinted glass, bumper guards, and seat belts. Though originally invoiced with air conditioning, the car was later confirmed June 28, 1967, on the Delivery Ticket to be delivered without AC. Bill of Sale was signed July 7, 1967. Having taken delivery in Oklahoma, Hopkins drove the car to his China Lake, California home titling and registering the car in September 1967 with license plate UGL 994 (original registration slips included with the car). By 1969 the car experienced engine failure. The owner parked the car in his garage where it remained until 2009. After the original owner passed, his sister was gifted the car. In 20011, she had the engine professionally rebuilt being careful to preserve and retain all the original engine components replaced during the engine rebuild. Each of these parts, including the original tires, are retained and offered with this remarkable example of originality and preservation. After the engine was rebuilt, the sister of the original owner sold this Jaguar to the current owner, an avid NorCal enthusiast and concours participant who showed the car at the Hillsborough Concours where he won in the originality class. In an effort to retain the original low mile condition, the current owner has driven the car approximately 2o0 miles during his fourteen years of ownership. Current Presentation Today this Jaguar presents in exceptional original condition. The finish shows only mild areas of age, one small scratch (about ½’ in length), but still remains smooth and glossy throughout. The finish has been metered with a digital paint meter revealing single digit paint thickness readings consistent with original paint. The lighting, lenses, and glass are clean and preserved throughout. The body integrity is excellent, with factory panel gaps on the rear hatch, and bonnet, and door fit that is especially good considering nearly 60 years of age. The chrome window and side glass surrounds are in excellent original condition overall, as are the front and rear. The original wire wheels feature chrome plated knock offs with excellent finish now wearing a set of Uniroyal narrow band white wall tires date coded 2023. The tan interior (representing the earlier tan hue for this series) is original throughout and again, consistent with the rest of the car, superbly detailed, clean, and properly preserved. The original carpet is excellent including the beaded edging and correct contours for the floor and center console. The dash pad is very fine owing to indoor storage avoiding unwanted sun damage. The instruments are beautifully preserved with excellent faces and contrasting color as are the AM/FM stereo, wood rimmed steering wheel and manual transmission shifter. The original door panels, matching covered door sills, headliner, and rear storage area are quite nice in both condition and material quality, again preserved and protected from outdoor elements. The engine compartment is correct in appearance and properly detailed. Having been rebuilt recently, the commissioning owner was careful to not overdo the engine compartment and thus retained the finishes and patina of the factory assembly. Both the engine numbers are evident and matching as is the “picture frame” support section bearing the correct chassis number, both of which correspond correctly to the data plate affixed to the car and the matching sales documentation supporting the original purchase. The undercarriage is clean, tidy, and very much in keeping with the 17,000 original miles being mercifully unrestored only cleaned to preserve the original finishes. The body seams, weld lines, and joinery are further indicative of original construction while all suspension, brakes, lines, and exhaust are original with only a few exceptions allowing for soft rubber parts to be replaced only as needed, here too retained as spares accompanying this car. Included with the car The car is accompanied by an original owner’s pouch, operating manual, warranty book, maintenance voucher book, a complete set of tools and tool roll, a pair of Carello fog lamps, the original four Dunlop tires, and an assortment of spare original engine and brake components removed during the engine rebuild and cosmetic freshening. 1967 Jaguar XKE 4.2 Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

In the early 1970s, Ferrari developed a new platform to succeed the highly popular 365 GTB/4 Daytona. The 365 GT4 BB, revealed at the 1971 Turin Motor Show, brought with it Ferrari’s first mid-mounted 12-cylinder engine—nicknamed the “Boxer”, due to its 4.4-litre flat-12 configuration—and the Berlinetta Boxer model family came into being. Ferrari would later evolve the platform to make way for the 512 BB, then the Testarossa. The 365 GT4 BB itself was produced from 1973 to 1976, with 387 made. As a result of its limited production run, the car is especially coveted by Ferrari collectors and enthusiasts. The example offered here, chassis 17883, was completed by the Maranello factory on 2 May 1974. The Ferrari was specified in Blu Dino over a “Jute”-style interior, configured as a European version for delivery to Italy—one of just 44 examples painted with this colour. Later that month, it was delivered the dealership Renato Nocentini’s Garage La Rotonda in Prato, near Florence. The Ferrari was soon sold to its first owner, Mr Pietro Rossi, the owner of an automotive body repair business in Perugia, who registered the car in May 1974 with the licence plates “PG 242146”. In 1978, the 365 GT4 BB was sold to its second owner, Mrs Antoniette Verlicchi, and after her passing in 1990 the car was procured by her relative, Mr Pietro Bottoni. In 1995 the Ferrari was acquired by Mr Roberto Danieli of Oriago di Mira, near Venice. In 1998, the Ferrari’s stay in its Italian homeland temporarily came to an end as the 365 GT4 BB was bought by its fifth owner, Mr Ulrich K. Senoner of Munich, Germany. The Ferrari stayed in Germany until it was acquired at auction by the consigning owner in 2017. During the car’s stay in Germany, the Ferrari was subject to significant expenditure with the Italian car specialist Reinhard Schürer (invoices available to view on file) before being kept in storage for a number of years, and later being returned to running condition for sale at auction. Certified by Ferrari Classiche and accompanied by its “Red Book”, this 365 GT4 BB has been found to retain its matching numbers engine and gearbox. The Ferrari presents in a resplendent shade of red, while the car retains its rare and desirable factory-fitted “Jute”-style interior and is offered with its original owner’s manual. This is a rare example of a well-documented, original 365 GT4 BB and a car that warrants inclusion in any comprehensive collection of Ferraris. 1974 Ferrari 365 GT4 BB by Scaglietti RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

This Italian sporting bellezza is stravagante. The Lancia Fulvia Zagato is a sporty bellezza of the 1960s and 1970s. The Zagato version of the Fulvia was a fantastic collaboration between Lancia and the famous design house Zagato. Most likely, Zagato took inspiration during the summer months as this beauty is known for its curves, with a flowing roofline that flows effortlessly into the rear end. The body is made of lightweight materials combined with a spirited characteristic engine. Similar to a Penne all’Arrabbiata pasta where grandmother has shot out with the chilli flakes, Mamma Mia! Under the skin, a completely revamped 1.4-litre four-cylinder. This little powerhouse delivers serious performance and the engine sound is music to any car enthusiast’s ears. Perfect for winding (rally) drives through the countryside, along the coast or just around town. The Fulvia Zagato is certainly not the roomiest car, who cares? It’s all about the driving experience. The seats are good and the driver’s seat puts all the controls within easy reach. Our specimen is one to lick your fingers at. A fully restored example, with a tweaked engine and a tightened chassis. On top of that, it comes with delicious rally equipment. Fun fact, it recently completed a major rally adventure of 3,000 kilometres in Japan! So belonged to a true enthusiast! Fancy a lively adventure in a driving history book? Don’t hesitate, get in touch with us directly. There is simply so much more to tell about it! 1973 Lancia Fulvia Zagato Cool Classic Club If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Singer Vehicle Design was founded in 2009 to both preserve and optimize the famed air-cooled Porsche 911. The 964 model Porsche became the perfect foundation for Singer's work possessing the ideal combination of classic air-cooled Porsche traits combined with a sophisticated footing in the vital areas of the vehicle's dynamics. Inspiration is taken from the classic road racing era of the Porsche during the 1970s and can be seen in almost every detail around the car including the 'Butzi' Porsche-inspired bodywork. This example was ordered new in July 2015 and completed in the supremely elegant Blue Blood Dark paintwork, complimented by the wheels and bumperettes finished in RS Nickel and Nickel respectively, over an elegant Cognac interior. Mechanically, this example sees all the great options ticked, the 4.0 litre engine, 6-speed close-ratio gearbox, Singer Brembo Big Brake upgrade with black brake calipers, Öhlins Sport Adjustable suspension and a plated engine air intake manifold. Inside, the car sees a traditional German box-weave carpet, as would be seen traditionally in early 911s and 356s, air-conditioning and the upgraded woven leather. The sills, central tunnel and rear are all trimmed in leather and furthermore, the woven leather extends to the door cards. The drivers zone was ordered from Singer with an 'off-menu' 1964 early 911 gauge set. In 2021, this example returned to Singer USA for a period of two years undergoing a number of works including, but not limited to, fitment of the latest integrated Porsche Classic satellite navigation system with iPod connectivity, re-plating of the nickel, fitment of new tyres, and importantly changing the 8-way electrically adjustable Recaro buckets for the single-piece buckets. Notably, both seats accompany the car offering the new owner two different seating setups. With only 2,550 kilometers from new, this Singer Classic ticks all the right boxes and presents superbly and is ready to be enjoyed by its new owner. Out of gallery 1990 Porsche 911 D.K.

In 1953, Mercedes-Benz told its American importer Max Hoffman of its plans to build a roadster based on the pontoon sedan. Hoffman didn't see the point unless the model was as similar as possible to the spectacular 300 SL "butterfly doors". It was finally decided to offer a roadster prototype at the 1954 New York show. The development of the roadster was extremely rapid. The first sketches were ready after only two weeks, followed by a model after four weeks, a 1:5 model after twelve weeks and a 1:1 wooden model after twenty weeks. After a total of 150 days, the prototype itself was on display at the New York Auto Show! But the operation could never have gone so fast without a few tricks of the trade. The new roadster borrowed as many parts as possible from the Mercedes 180, including the chassis, which was simply shortened to form a self-supporting construction with the body. The Mercedes-Benz 190SL was presented in February 1954 at the New York Motor Show as a prototype. With this model, the German brand wanted to capture a share of the booming roadster market in the USA. The response to the New York show was so enthusiastic that Mercedes-Benz decided to go into series production. The 190 SL made its official debut at the 1955 Geneva Motor Show, where it was presented in three versions: a convertible A (the name traditionally used by Mercedes-Benz for its two-seater convertibles at the time), a coupe with a removable roof ('hard top') and a coupe-cabriolet equipped with both a removable roof and a canvas top. Since Mercedes-Benz felt that its 190 SL was already generously equipped, it designed a deliberately short option list. Buyers could still customize their car with leather upholstery and a custom luggage set, tires with white sidewalls, a passenger-side exterior mirror, and fog lights. But the most popular accessory was definitely the Becker radio. The interior was also tastefully finished: the metal dashboard was painted in the body color, while the top and bottom were covered with the same fabric as the seats. The feature that everyone really agreed on, however, was the beauty of the design, which was irresistibly reminiscent of the 300 SL. The 190 SL had a certain sex appeal and would play a role in many movies of the time. Compared to the 1954 prototype, the production car has the gearshift lever on the floor instead of on the steering wheel. The latter solution would have cost less but would not have pleased the American customers. The production 190SL also lacks the hood-mounted air intake of the prototype. The Mercedes-Benz 190SL is meant to be a dynamic car while offering the seriousness of a Mercedes-Benz. However, the manufacturer made the mistake of presenting the car as a sports car. It is not really the case, and the critics arrived. The gear ratio was quickly shortened to give the car a little more character. Despite this lack of sportiness, the car was a success and the public liked the civilized character of the 190SL. Although the letters SL stand for "Sport Leicht" or light sport, the public quickly perceives that, after the 300SL which is a racing car adapted to the road, the 190 SL is more a touring car, fast and comfortable, allowing to swallow long distances without difficulty. This philosophy is fully reflected in the following generations of SL, which then become luxury cars. The car was not equipped with a 6-cylinder engine like the 300 SL but with a more sober and modern four-cylinder engine of 1,897 cm3. The engine, equipped with two Solex carburetors, finally developed 105 hp at 5,700 rpm. It was coupled to a 4-speed mechanical gearbox. This set, without allowing a sporting temperament, ensures a good dynamism to the car. The line is aesthetically close to the 300 SL, but it is now a two-seater convertible. The popular 190SL had a long career, so much so that it achieved its second-best production year in 1960, five years after its launch. The 190SL was produced in 26,000 units. The SL W113 Pagoda succeeded it in the spring of 1963 and was placed higher up the range thanks to its 6-cylinder engine. In spite of an initial design not very sporty, the 190SL was available on request in a single-seater version with aluminum doors without windows, without handles with a tonneau cover and Plexiglas windscreen. Thus, Mercedes-Benz 190SL were entered privately in some races. The factory also entered a 190SL with a fuel-injected engine in the 1955 Mille Miglia race. A 190SL won the 1958 Hong Kong Rally, and in 1959 a private crew fitted an OM621 diesel engine with 60 hp in a 190SL. It set a new 24-hour record on the Hockenheim circuit at an average speed of 124.1 km/h. Our car, registered in 1959, is presented in a splendid grey coat accompanied by a cartier red interior with a superb patina and the highly desirable Becker car radio option. The car is accompanied by its Hard top and benefited from a careful restoration many years ago before its purchase by the current owner in 2002. The previous owner had cherished it since 1995. You will find in this car all the charm and elegance of the model. It is in very good condition, both aesthetically and mechanically, having been meticulously maintained, as evidenced by the impressive file of invoices accumulated over the 50,000km the owner has driven it. It's sure to delight fans of this iconic roadster, and will accompany you on all your travels with grace and suppleness. 1959 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright In 1953, Mercedes-Benz told its American importer Max Hoffman of its plans to build a roadster based on the pontoon sedan. Hoffman didn't see the point unless the model was as similar as possible to the spectacular 300 SL "butterfly doors". It was finally decided to offer a roadster prototype at the 1954 New York show. The development of the roadster was extremely rapid. The first sketches were ready after only two weeks, followed by a model after four weeks, a 1:5 model after twelve weeks and a 1:1 wooden model after twenty weeks. After a total of 150 days, the prototype itself was on display at the New York Auto Show! But the operation could never have gone so fast without a few tricks of the trade. The new roadster borrowed as many parts as possible from the Mercedes 180, including the chassis, which was simply shortened to form a self-supporting construction with the body. The Mercedes-Benz 190SL was presented in February 1954 at the New York Motor Show as a prototype. With this model, the German brand wanted to capture a share of the booming roadster market in the USA. The response to the New York show was so enthusiastic that Mercedes-Benz decided to go into series production. The 190 SL made its official debut at the 1955 Geneva Motor Show, where it was presented in three versions: a convertible A (the name traditionally used by Mercedes-Benz for its two-seater convertibles at the time), a coupe with a removable roof ('hard top') and a coupe-cabriolet equipped with both a removable roof and a canvas top. Since Mercedes-Benz felt that its 190 SL was already generously equipped, it designed a deliberately short option list. Buyers could still customize their car with leather upholstery and a custom luggage set, tires with white sidewalls, a passenger-side exterior mirror, and fog lights. But the most popular accessory was definitely the Becker radio. The interior was also tastefully finished: the metal dashboard was painted in the body color, while the top and bottom were covered with the same fabric as the seats. The feature that everyone really agreed on, however, was the beauty of the design, which was irresistibly reminiscent of the 300 SL. The 190 SL had a certain sex appeal and would play a role in many movies of the time. Compared to the 1954 prototype, the production car has the gearshift lever on the floor instead of on the steering wheel. The latter solution would have cost less but would not have pleased the American customers. The production 190SL also lacks the hood-mounted air intake of the prototype. The Mercedes-Benz 190SL is meant to be a dynamic car while offering the seriousness of a Mercedes-Benz. However, the manufacturer made the mistake of presenting the car as a sports car. It is not really the case, and the critics arrived. The gear ratio was quickly shortened to give the car a little more character. Despite this lack of sportiness, the car was a success and the public liked the civilized character of the 190SL. Although the letters SL stand for "Sport Leicht" or light sport, the public quickly perceives that, after the 300SL which is a racing car adapted to the road, the 190 SL is more a touring car, fast and comfortable, allowing to swallow long distances without difficulty. This philosophy is fully reflected in the following generations of SL, which then become luxury cars. The car was not equipped with a 6-cylinder engine like the 300 SL but with a more sober and modern four-cylinder engine of 1,897 cm3. The engine, equipped with two Solex carburetors, finally developed 105 hp at 5,700 rpm. It was coupled to a 4-speed mechanical gearbox. This set, without allowing a sporting temperament, ensures a good dynamism to the car. The line is aesthetically close to the 300 SL, but it is now a two-seater convertible. The popular 190SL had a long career, so much so that it achieved its second-best production year in 1960, five years after its launch. The 190SL was produced in 26,000 units. The SL W113 Pagoda succeeded it in the spring of 1963 and was placed higher up the range thanks to its 6-cylinder engine. In spite of an initial design not very sporty, the 190SL was available on request in a single-seater version with aluminum doors without windows, without handles with a tonneau cover and Plexiglas windscreen. Thus, Mercedes-Benz 190SL were entered privately in some races. The factory also entered a 190SL with a fuel-injected engine in the 1955 Mille Miglia race. A 190SL won the 1958 Hong Kong Rally, and in 1959 a private crew fitted an OM621 diesel engine with 60 hp in a 190SL. It set a new 24-hour record on the Hockenheim circuit at an average speed of 124.1 km/h. Our car, registered in 1959, is presented in a splendid grey coat accompanied by a cartier red interior with a superb patina and the highly desirable Becker car radio option. The car is accompanied by its Hard top and benefited from a careful restoration many years ago before its purchase by the current owner in 2002. The previous owner had cherished it since 1995. You will find in this car all the charm and elegance of the model. It is in very good condition, both aesthetically and mechanically, having been meticulously maintained, as evidenced by the impressive file of invoices accumulated over the 50,000km the owner has driven it. It's sure to delight fans of this iconic roadster, and will accompany you on all your travels with grace and suppleness.
