- 1995 BMW 850 Ci
Unlike contemporary BMW sister models such as the 3-, 5-, or 7 Series, the 850i launched at the 1989 International Motor Show (IAA) as a “clean sheet” design and without ties to earlier versions of its platform. The new 8 Series proudly carried the lineage of its BMW badge, though, with a flat nose reminiscent of the earlier M1 while being touted as an indirect successor to the outgoing E24-generation 6 Series, at that point the company’s flagship grand tourer coupé. As the first examples were released for public consumption, the 8 Series made a bold impression, with its 5.0-litre V-12 engine rated by the factory for a 300 PS output. Customers could choose between a four-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission, with the example offered here equipped with the former. Originally ordered in 1994 model year specification for the European market, the BMW is understood to have been bought new by a Sheikh living in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, who ultimately did not take delivery of the car. Instead, it was bought by a Finnish citizen residing in the Middle East, who took the BMW with them upon returning to live in Europe. As a result, the 850 Ci carries selected Gulf-specific features, such as enhanced air conditioning and being built without a catalytic converter. Acquired by The Munich Masterpieces Collection in 2007, the BMW shows 90,344 kilometres at the time of cataloguing and is offered with books and manuals, a Birth Certificate by BMW Classic that verifies this example’s matching-numbers engine, further to its boot-mounted toolkit. Please note, due to this car’s build configuration for the Middle East, buyers are encouraged to make sure that the BMW can be taken to their intended country of registration prior to bidding. 1995 BMW 850 Ci RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1989-ac-cobra-mk-iv-lightweight-specification
First registration 06.1989 Matching numbers Swiss road registration with veteran entry The AC Cobra Mark IV is a further development of the legendary AC Cobra, which was originally developed in the 1960s in collaboration between AC Cars and Carroll Shelby. The Mark IV was produced by Autokraft Ltd. in England in the 1980s after the company acquired the rights to the AC brand. Just over 400 were built and very few had the Lightweight specification. In the early 1990s, the Lightweight was an additional model in the program with the chassis prefix “AKL”, but before that customers could order their Mk IV with the unofficial Lightweight specification. The AC Cobra Mk IV offered here is such a car and has the shortnose aluminum body as well as all other details of the Lightweight cars from new. It was largely hand-built in July 1988 and delivered to its first owner in Germany in mid-1989. The AC Cobra Mk IV was finally imported from Germany to Switzerland as relocation goods in October 2016. The engine and technology were overhauled around 3 years ago. All work has always been carried out and no expense has been spared to keep the car in perfect condition. The soft top, the side windows and the spray hood are also present as well as many documents, invoices, the owner’s handbook and the German vehicle registration document. This beautiful and rare AC Cobra Mk IV with Lightweight specification is matching numbers and is, veteran-approved, in top maintained and impeccable collector’s condition. 1989 AC Cobra Mk IV Lightweight Specification Lutziger Classic Cars AG If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1996 Honda NSX-T
This first-generation, right-hand drive, manual gearbox Honda NSX Targa enjoyed its early life as a, much featured, UK Press Car. The legendary Honda NSX (standing for New Sportscar Experimental) was developed by the Honda Motor Corporation between 1984 and its eventual launch in 1990, with major chassis and suspension input from three-times F1 World Champion, Ayrton Senna and was everything that a sports car should be - dynamic, rewarding and stimulating. It featured an all-aluminium monocoque body, encompassing a revolutionary extruded aluminium-alloy frame and suspension making the car extremely light and very strong. Power was provided by a state-of-the-art, 3.0-litre, 24-valve, V6 'VTEC' engine (variable valve timing) which, despite being developed during F1's turbo-era, was normally aspirated. The free-revving, all-alloy unit produced 270bhp initially, which was good enough for a top speed of 168mph and a 0-60 time of less than 6.0 seconds. Those performance figures put the NSX on a par with Ferrari's 348 GTB, but in terms of comfort, ergonomics, driving dynamics and build quality, the NSX was in a different league entirely. The car was the first real Japanese 'supercar', proving itself and quickly establishing respect from its key competitors. However, this superiority was not translated into sales and, by the time production ceased in 2005, fewer than 20,000 had been sold making them relatively rare and much sought-after today. Despite those slow sales, the NSX earned huge industry respect as the first mass-produced aluminium-bodied car with F1-derived innovations like platinum spark plugs, titanium con rods, a magnesium induction plenum, alloy wishbones and subframes, four-channel ABS brakes and an interior with the 360-degree cockpit visibility of an F-16 fighter jet. Iconic Auctioneers are proud to offer this rather special NSX, a first-generation, right-hand drive Targa with the desirable manual gearbox, finished in Sebring Silver with a Burgundy hide interior. It's an original UK car that was initially allocated to Honda's UK Press Department and was featured in many press releases and magazine road tests including a very complimentary one in Motor Sport Magazine. Originally registered as N115 GLY, it was finished completely in silver with no black top, a colour scheme that sets it apart from the general production examples. In excellent overall condition, the car is outstanding throughout and presents superbly, fitted with slightly larger 18" wheels of a similar pattern and an enhanced exhaust system. The comprehensive history file includes invoices going back almost to day one as well as an impressive MOT trace, displaying regular care and maintenance throughout its life. Now back on its original plates, N115 GLY, it should be noted that the Cherished Registration Number illustrated, E2 NSZ does not form part of the sale but could be available by separate negotiation. With a fabulous, temperament-free, mid-mounted engine, great chassis balance, and approachable running costs, the NSX was known as a hassle-free 'Supercar' back in 1990 and that description still applies over thirty years later. 1996 Honda NSX-T Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

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

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

- 1953-aston-martin-db2-drophead
David Brown bought Aston Martin in 1947 before swiftly snapping up Lagonda and moving both firms into adjacent workshops in Feltham. Styled by Frank Feeley and sporting Lagonda’s 2.6-litre twin-cam straight-six that delivered 105 brake horsepower, the DB2 soon emerged from the factory gates. The plan was to target sales in North America, with the new model ideally suited to high-speed, long-distance interstate driving. A matter of months later, in the autumn of 1950, the DB2 Drophead Coupé was unveiled. With no extra bracing in the chassis, the convertible was some 87 kilograms lighter than its hardtop counterpart. Beyond the prototype, which became the personal car of Brown himself, just 98 Drophead Coupés were built from a total production run of only 411 DB2s. Offered here is chassis number LML/50/239, which is configured in right-hand drive. Per the accompanying copy of the Aston Martin factory build record, the car was originally finished in the pale shade of Botticelli Blue over a Blue interior and featured a Grey soft-top roof. While the car was initially completed with the typical DB2 steering column-mounted gearchange, prior to delivery it was converted to a more conventional centre-change set-up. Exported to Singapore via Eastern Autos in June 1953, the DB2 was purchased new by Chan Hin Cheung of Chan Wing & Sons Ltd. The car remained in the country under the care of a J B Evans. Come the 1963 instalment of the Aston Martin Owners Club Register, chassis number LML/50/239 is recorded as belonging to a J M Hardman. The Drophead Coupé was subsequently acquired by Mr Peter Read, who split his time between West Sussex and the Californian city of Berkeley. The DB2 was subsequently recommissioned and maintained, including the fitment of power steering, by marque authorities RS Williams and Nicolas Mee in the early 2000s before finding a new owner in Pöcking, Germany. The consigning owner, a collector of both pre- and post-war Aston Martins, then took care of the car from March 2008. Now presented in a smart dark blue shade over tan upholstery and sporting a dark blue roof, this DB2 Drophead Coupé also boasts a replacement Vantage-specification engine that, from the factory, would have generated an additional 20 brake horsepower. Please note that the chassis number appears to be restamped, possibly during the recommissioning process. Accompanied by a spare wheel and jack, this Aston Martin offers a glamorous open-air driving experience.

- 1966 Porsche 912
This 1966 Porsche 912 was sold new on August 15th, 1966, at A.J. Pierson Sales and Service in Orlando, Florida, with an out-the-door price of $5,739.44. Originally finished in Gulf Blue, this 912 was refinished in Polo Red yet otherwise remains very original throughout. One thing that can’t be replicated and sets this car apart from most classics of this generation is a binder with a paper trail dating back to the receipt from the selling dealer in 1966 up to the current day. This example was acquired by the current owner in 2020 and has undergone significant mechanical freshening, with receipts for over $28,000 spent in 2023 to get it dialed in. Under current ownership, this 912 was featured on the lawn at the prestigious The Quail, A Motorsport Gathering in 2022. The exterior of the vehicle looks fantastic, with the Polo Red paint paired with steel wheels and chrome hubcaps, and a white and black Porsche script decal along the sills. Up front, a set of fog lights and a covered set of Cibie spotlights have been installed. The interior combines black vinyl with unique white vinyl door cards and has received some fantastic upgrades in recent years. When the current owner purchased the car, a modern Pioneer head unit was fitted in the dashboard's center, which just looked wrong. To address this, the head unit was removed, and in its place, a pair of Cletimer and Sportex (a Heuer subsidiary) stopwatches were fitted on a brushed aluminum plate that matches the dash nicely. A 3-spoke wood-rimmed steering wheel frames the 356-inspired 3 gauge dashboard, made up of a speedometer, tach, and split fuel/oil temperature gauge. Coco Mats in black/white are fitted on the floors, and 4-point seat belts have been installed for the two front seats. Powering this 912 is a 1,600cc air cooled flat-4 which produces an estimated 90 horsepower, that is sent to the rear wheels through a 5-speed manual gearbox. The engine was completely rebuilt in 2001 and the gearbox has received a recent overhaul to ensure it functions properly. As it stands, the car runs and drives extremely well and the inspection report shows only minor seepage on the engine which is remarkable for a car of this age. 1966 Porsche 912 ISSIMI, Inc If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1968 Ferrari 330 GTC by Pininfarina
What is a gentleman’s Ferrari? It is a car that is not about outright performance, but rather a Ferrari that combines stunning performance bred through success in motorsport, alongside luxury and sophistication; a car tractable enough to use for extended journeys, on a daily basis, or on a special occasion. Perhaps most importantly, this is a car that does all of this, but also does not shout about its presence. Simply put, the gentleman’s Ferrari is a grand tourer par excellence. It is a car that is known to those that know, and one that blends in with traffic to everyone else. To the cognoscenti, the epitome of the gentleman’s Ferrari is the 330 GTC. Slotting in between the four-seat 330 GT 2+2 and Ferrari’s then-flagship 275 GTB, it combined the aspects of both cars to make for an exceptional driving experience. Utilizing the same steering, suspension, and transmission as the 275 GTB, at its heart was a 4.0-litre V-12 engine, good for transporting the 330 GTC to 60 mph from a standstill in seven seconds and onwards to a top speed of 150 mph. As the 330 GTC was a two-seater, its wheelbase was shorted by 10 inches over the 330 GT 2+2, making it much more dynamic to drive yet still entirely practical for two passengers, with copious boot space and a rear parcel shelf behind the seats. Chassis number 11329 was built for Ferrari’s home market of Italy and was delivered new to M.G. Crepaldi Automobili S.a.s., Ferrari’s official dealership in Milan, in September of 1968. Finished in Grigio Argento (2.443.009 A. It) over a Nera Franzi leather interior, a report on file from Ferrari historian Marcel Massini states that the car’s first private owner was Alberto Pesenti of Milan. By the early 1970s, the car was exported to the United States. The 330 GTC’s first recorded American owner was Philip Strain, a resident of St. Petersburg, Florida, and regular client of FAF Motorcars, the official Ferrari dealer located in Tucker, Georgia. Strain retained the car in his ownership from 1975 until his passing in 2010 and was subsequently sold by his estate. Returning across the Atlantic, the car was purchased as a restoration project by Hoyle-Fox Classics in Essex, UK to be fully restored. The car was stripped back to bare metal, the engine fully rebuilt, interior reupholstered in Pelle Rosso leather, a stylish combination with its silver exterior. Following the completion of the restoration in 2015, the car was certified by Ferrari Classiche, confirming that it retains its original chassis, engine, and gearbox. The car passed into the esteemed collection of Lord Irvine Laidlaw in 2017 prior to being acquired by the consignor in 2019, a collector of classic Ferraris. Just 598 330 GTCs were built from 1966 to 1968, and today they are still excellent cars to use and enjoy, with copious performance more than capable of handling modern-day traffic. Well-preserved in its as-restored state with the current owner, this 330 GTC presents beautifully throughout, having covered minimal mileage since its restoration (less than 1,000 miles). Beautifully restored and boasting Ferrari Classiche certification, this 330 GTC needs nothing but a new owner willing to experience the ideal gentleman’s Ferrari at its best. 1968 Ferrari 330 GTC by Pininfarina RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

It is a car that is not about outright performance, but rather a Ferrari that combines stunning performance bred through success in motorsport, alongside luxury and sophistication; a car tractable enough to use for extended journeys, on a daily basis, or on a special occasion. Perhaps most importantly, this is a car that does all of this, but also does not shout about its presence. Simply put, the gentleman’s Ferrari is a grand tourer par excellence. It is a car that is known to those that know, and one that blends in with traffic to everyone else. To the cognoscenti, the epitome of the gentleman’s Ferrari is the 330 GTC. Slotting in between the four-seat 330 GT 2+2 and Ferrari’s then-flagship 275 GTB, it combined the aspects of both cars to make for an exceptional driving experience. Utilizing the same steering, suspension, and transmission as the 275 GTB, at its heart was a 4.0-litre V-12 engine, good for transporting the 330 GTC to 60 mph from a standstill in seven seconds and onwards to a top speed of 150 mph. As the 330 GTC was a two-seater, its wheelbase was shorted by 10 inches over the 330 GT 2+2, making it much more dynamic to drive yet still entirely practical for two passengers, with copious boot space and a rear parcel shelf behind the seats.

- 1983 BMW 635 CSi Group A 1
According to Schnitzer Motorsport, this BMW 635 CSi Group A car was built by the firm in August 1983 and was destined to compete in the European Touring Car Championship. The car formed part of an enlarged three-car assault on the final round of the championship at Zolder in an attempt to bolster Dieter Quester’s tilt at the title. Driven by Christian Danner and Stefan Bellof, the BMW retired from the race following handling problems, while Quester finished 4th to win the Championship. The car was sold in early 1984 and campaigned by Volker Strycek under the GUBIN Sport banner in the inaugural year of the Deutsche Produktionswagen-Meisterschaft, the race series that would become the DTM; Strycek was crowned Champion despite never having won a race. The car is understood to have been raced by Strycek in 1985, before being sold to Manfred Niederhof for the 1986 season. Today, the BMW 635 CSi has been returned to its 1984 Championship-winning livery and has been regularly campaigned in historic race series. It is both a significant machine in BMW and DTM history and golden ticket to the historic race series for which it is eligible.

- 1987 Lotus Turbo Esprit
Auto Storica is pleased to announce the sale of this spectacular Lotus Turbo Esprit The English brand, known for manufacturing the lightest sports cars, wanted in the 80s to compete with the best brands in the world. And the play turned out perfectly. The Turbo Esprit offers top-level equipment in a luxurious package, as demonstrated by the quality of its cabin covered in the highest quality leather in its entirety. But that did not mean it lost the Lotus essence. Its 2,200cc 4-cylinder engine delivers 218hp, enough to move its low weight and accelerate as fast as a contemporary Porsche 911 with 100 more hp. Its bodywork, designed by Giugiaro, is originally painted black with gold lines, recalling the legendary JPS livery of the brand's single-seaters. Our unit, which has undergone a thorough inspection, including the tuning of its carburetors, is in optimal operating condition, as you can see in the video above. The Esprit Turbo is a perfect car for those who like to enjoy the purest driving without losing an ounce of glamor or exclusivity. 1987 Lotus Turbo Esprit Auto Storica If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1963-lancia-flaminia-gtl-3c-28-touring
The Lancia Flaminia was produced from spring 1957 until the beginning of 1970. Just like its predecessor, the Aurelia, Flaminia also stood for a Roman road the Via Flaminia. Presented in Geneva in March 1957, the shape of the saloon (called Berlina) was modern and understated, Yet the design had a major influence on future saloons like no other. Just as with the Aurelia, the engine was a V6, then offered only by Lancia. In the beginning, the power of the 2.5 litre stood at 102 horsepower, which, in 1961, was increased to 110 horsepower and with the 2.8 litre, arriving towards the end of 1962, 128 horsepower were available in its basic version. In the 3C version with three Weber twin carburettors, available from autumn 1963, the engine delivered up to 150 hp, giving the Flaminia impressive performance. Traditionally, Lancia also commissioned special coachwork based on the same platform. As with the Appia, different concepts were chosen, realised by Pininfarina, Touring and Zagato. Pininfarina built an elegant 4-seater coupé for longer journeys and Touring designed a sporty 2-seater as well as a 2+2 and finally Zagato came up with a super sports car fit for the affluent gentleman with racing ambitions. The Flaminia offered, one of only 300 2+2 Touring bodied examples called GTL built, was completed towards the end of 1963 and most probably imported from Italy at an early stage. It was first registered in Switzerland on the 15th of February 1964. From the beginning of the 70‘s, the noble coupé remained with the same family for 45 years and in the early 80s its coach work was repainted. In 2013 the cylinder heads on the carburettors were overhauled and several other technical tasks completed. Afterwards the Flaminia was driven very sparingly and finally de-registered in September 2019. In 2024/25 the rather patinated interior was restored and new carpets and rubber mats were fitted. At the same time the middle exhaust silencer was replaced together with the track rod and a service was completed. Now the rare coupé is in good to very good overall condition and has most probably only covered around 113’000 kilometres. The car will be handed over to a new owner with the latest Veteran MOT completed in March 2025. 1963 Lancia Flaminia GTL 3C 2.8 Touring Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

THE 906 CARRERA 6: LAST OF THE ROAD-LEGAL RACECARS Although it was a successor to Porsche’s winning 904 GTS racecar, the 906 Carrera 6 featured a nearly comprehensive redesign, with development closely supervised by Ferdinand Piëch himself in the factory experimental department. Summarized in a nutshell, the 904 was the ultimate racing variant of the four-cylinder 356 model, while the 906 was the first racing machine based on the new 911 road car. The 906 boasted a featherweight multi-tubular spaceframe chassis of notable stiffness, powered by a 210-horsepower six-cylinder Carrera engine, and wrapped in molded fiberglass bodywork. With a low weight of just 1,235 pounds, the model possessed a remarkable power-to-weight ratio that was masterfully realized in numerous forthcoming competition victories. A total of 65 Carrera 6 examples were produced, of which 52 had the 2.0-liter engine. In the hands of privateer drivers, the model utterly dominated world-class 2-liter endurance racing for two seasons while becoming one of the most memorably powerful and beautiful competition automobiles of its era. Major accomplishments during 1966 included victories at the Targa Florio and Paris Grand Prix, a sweep of 4th through 7th place at Le Mans, and class wins at Daytona, Sebring, Spa, and Monza. Privateer wins extended well into 1968 as the 906 dominated continental sports car races and SCCA events. Even today, the shape of the 906 Carrera 6 is instantly recognizable to Porsche enthusiasts worldwide, perhaps as iconic as the 911 itself. It represents one of the most significant models Stuttgart ever produced—and the final road-legal racecar Porsche ever built. CHASSIS NUMBER 906-127 According to a Kardex on file, as well as research submitted by the consignor, chassis number 906-127 was factory-finished in classic Signal Red paint and shod with Dunlop racing tires before being delivered in March 1966. The sleek racecar was sold new to Josef “Sepp” Greger, a Munich-based Volkswagen-Porsche dealer who successfully competed with both marques, including participation in the most famous European hillclimbs and endurance events of the era, sometimes even serving as a factory Works driver. Mr. Greger raced this car extensively from 1966 to late 1968, winning the 2-Liter European Hillclimb Championship in 1966 while recording 10 wins and a 2nd-place finish during 14 races that season. The car was also integral to his 1968 European Mountain Championship (the first of three Greger would win), accounting for seven additional class wins. This rigorous racing use obviously took a toll on the car’s original engine, as it was replaced during Greger’s ownership with a correct 906 motor, engine number 906-162. Following the conclusion of the 1968 season, 906-127 was sold to Kurt Hild, also of Munich, who raced it for the duration of the 1969 and 1970 seasons. It then passed to Manfred Pade of Dusseldorf who raced it throughout 1971 and 1972. In the winter between the two seasons, the body was converted to a spyder configuration in the approximate style of the 917 PA experimental racecar, and it competed that way in 1972 with improved results, including class wins at Wunstorf and Merziger. The car is accompanied by correspondence between Greger and Porsche, the original German registration (Kraftfahrzeugbrief), and the original ONS-Wagenpass from its competition years, an important piece of documentation that essentially served as a registration with the German racing authorities. In 1973, 906-127 was acquired from Pade by Herbert Adamczyk, who took it to Macau; it is still accompanied by the export document in his name. Still wearing its spyder bodywork, it was raced in the 1973 Macau Grand Prix weekend by Acamcyzk and Jim Sweeney, but it was a DNF in both races. During this period it was also occasionally used as a road car around the island, which must have been something to experience—both from behind the wheel and as a spectator. During its full competition history the car was reportedly entered in some 80 events and achieved more class wins than almost any other 906, and had among the best competition history of any privately owned 906. Adamczyk sold the Porsche in 1978 to Bob Garretson, who would eventually bring the car to Southern California and sell it to Michael Hager of Tustin. It was disassembled for restoration, but the work never began in earnest. In 1986 the project was acquired by the noted longtime Porsche enthusiast Gerry Sutterfield, who quickly sold it to Jeff Hayes; nonetheless the car remained unrestored for nearly two decades. In 2002, the 906 was acquired by an owner in West Palm Beach, Florida, and in the following year it was purchased by Jean Goutal of New York City. It was in Mr. Goutal’s ownership that 906-127 finally received its long-awaited restoration, in the hands of the highly respected Porsche racecar specialist Kevin Jeanette, and his restoration/racing company Gunnar Racing. Over a three-year period the car was largely returned to its original delivery configuration, including both mechanical and cosmetic considerations. Extensive attention to detail included the utilization of what was reportedly an original factory tail section for the bodywork, while the remaining body panels were recreated out of properly molded fiberglass. As part of this work the Carrera 6 was fitted with a correct 906 magnesium-case motor, number 906-133, and a correct magnesium gearbox, number 906-157. While efforts were taken to replicate numerous period-correct details, such as a decaying period Nürburgring scrutineering sticker that was discovered during disassembly, measures were also taken to ensure the car can be reliably enjoyed in events, such as the installation of newly fabricated fuel cells. Perhaps most significantly, the original owner Sepp Greger visited the project to advise on the work, thereby helping to address numerous original details, such as the reinstallation of the pedals that he had drilled out for additional lightness in 1966—something that he commented may have been for naught, as they had forgotten to sweep out the metal shavings and thus no weight was actually saved. Following completion of the masterful restoration, the 906 was exhibited by Mr. Goutal at the Rennsport Reunion at Daytona in 2007, winning First in Class, and at the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance 2009, where the car received the Porsche Award and an Amelia Award. In 2010, 906-127 was acquired by the well-known second-generation vintage racing driver James Lindsay of England, and he prepared it for track use and drove it in the 2011 Spa 6 Hours. The Carrera 6 was then sold in 2012 to a gentleman in Albany, New York, from whom it was acquired by the current caretaker. The Porsche is currently fitted with a high-performance motor built in 2012 by the 901 Shop of Stuart, Florida. Specified with a 2.3-liter displacement and aspiration via Weber carburetors, this engine has been tuned for vintage racing applications and reportedly develops 228 horsepower and 176 pound-feet of torque. The modern engine ensures the next caretaker can continue to enjoy the car in hot laps without worrying about the authentic 906 Carrera engine. Indeed, the present owner has run the car at Road Atlanta and Laguna Seca, as well as enjoyed it on two extended rallies with other 906s through the Rocky Mountains, and describes it as “running reliably and well.” Further, the car has been outfitted by its longtime caretakers at Road Scholars of Durham, North Carolina, with an intercom in the cockpit, including Bluetooth capability for music, as well as a cabin-cooling system, ensuring a level of comfort while on the road. Rest assured, the rebuilt, correct 901/20 Carrera 6 engine number 906-133, which was equipped during restoration and is only one number away from this car’s original engine, is fitted to a stand and separately included with the car. Chassis number 906-127 is accompanied by an impressive history file that includes numerous historic photographs, a copy of the factory Kardex, the original ONS-Wagenpass from its ownership by Manfred Pade, and many restoration photographs and descriptions of Kevin Jeanette’s process in conducting the intricately detailed restoration. Also included with the car is the very rare original Momo Monza steering wheel purchased by Manfred Pade and installed during his ownership; Mr. Pade bestowed this upon Mr. Goutal during the latter’s ownership. Remarkably documented, and authenticated by its original owner during an especially meticulous and correct restoration, this 906 must surely be one of the finest examples of the Carrera 6 in existence—well-known, superbly finished, and exactingly maintained by respected connoisseurs within the marque niche. 1966 Porsche 906 Carrera 6 RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
