  • 1982 Alfa Romeo Alfetta GTV6

    Designed by the famous Giorgetto Giugiaro of Italdesign, the Alfa Romeo Alfetta holds a special place in automotive history. Introduced in the mid-1970s, the Alfetta series was known for its advanced engineering and stylish design. The GTV, or Gran Turismo Veloce, was the sportier variant, designed to deliver an exhilarating driving experience. The V6 model, introduced in the early 1980s, featured the legendary Busso V6 engine, renowned for its smooth power delivery and distinctive sound. Alfa Romeo produced the Alfetta GTV from 1974 to 1987. The V6 variant, particularly the 2.5-liter version like this one, was less common, making it a sought-after model among collectors. Here for sale is this beautiful GTV 6 from 1982 in a striking Alfa red exterior, the perfect color for an Alfa, combined with an elegant beige interior. The Alfetta is fitted with magnificent Campagnollo Campanatura magnesium rims. Enthusiasts will have noticed the famous “Quadrifoglio” painted on the front fenders, which was a distinctive feature of the sporty and special versions of Alfa Romeo vehicles. The current owner of this GTV 6 lives in Belgium and has enjoyed it for 6 years. He bought the Alfetta from a Spanish citizen who moved to Belgium in 2013. The bodywork (known to be one of the weak points of the model) is here in excellent condition, given that the car lived most of its lifetime in Spain, and was always stored in a garage once in Belgium. The sound of the legendary Busso V6 – which alone is worth the purchase! – is here enhanced by an almost new exhaust line. The car has just been serviced. We love the car’s vintage appeal. The Alfetta GTV V6 is a true Italian sports car—masterfully designed, powered by beautifully crafted engines, and driven by stylish enthusiasts. And, one feature sets it apart from its peers: it can comfortably accommodate 4 passengers while also offering ample luggage space. 1982 Alfa Romeo Alfetta GTV6 AD Sportscars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1994 Porsche 911 Turbo S Flachbau

    This C28 example was supplied new to Singapore in 1994 as 1 of just 12 RHD Turbo S built and as such, is one of the rarest and most unique Porsches extant. Standing as a cornerstone of air-cooled turbocharged 911s and the last RWD Turbo badged 911, this X84 example is thought to be one of just two cars in the UK at this time. The build specification can be seen below: L12G - Speed Yellow X09 - Special centre console X84 - Turbo Slantnose, RoW (Rest of World) 407 - 18" Polished 3-piece wheels 567 - Top-tinted windscreen 650 - Sun-moon-roof Notably, of the 12 RHD RoW optioned cars, it is understood that 8 of these were allocated to Singapore, and from those, six were supplied new to Brunei. It is understood the car was supplied new to a doctor and covered just 10,900 miles before its import to the UK in 2003. This example was purchased by its air-cooled aficionado owner 4 years ago. Residing within a collection of 90s era 911s, this example has been used sparingly and serviced thoroughly by Porsche main dealers. Leading a sheltered early life, this 964 has now covered just 13,900 miles from new. Most recently serviced and inspected by Porche Brooklands in February 2023, this Turbo S Flachbau really must be seen to be appreciated. Much like the many polished split rim wheels, the barrels are prone to milking. As a part of the sale, these wheels have been refurbished to the highest standard, a process that has taken close to three months to perfect. This wonderful Turbo S is available to view by appointment at our showrooms just outside of London. 1994 Porsche 911 Turbo S Flachbau D.K.

  • 1954 Porsche 356

    The Porsche 356 occupies a special place in automotive history, as it laid the foundations for the legendary Porsche brand. The brainchild of the visionary Ferdinand 'Ferry' Porsche, the 356 (the brand's 356th design) became the first production car to bear the Porsche name and paved the way for the iconic sports cars that would follow. Launched in 1948, the 356 quickly became recognized for its distinctive design, superb engineering and outstanding performance, cementing its status as a classic icon that continues to captivate enthusiasts around the world. It was thanks to the 356 that the manufacturer succeeded in making a name for itself and producing the hyper-powerful and prestigious models we know today. The origins of the Porsche 356 date back to the aftermath of the Second World War, when company founder Ferdinand Porsche and his son Ferry set out to create a sports car that combined performance and practicality. Using parts from the Volkswagen Beetle, the first Porsche prototype, known as "No. 1" or "Porsche 356-001" was created : using its rear engine, aerodynamic design and lightweight construction as the basis of the 356 series. The Porsche 356 went through several iterations during its production period, from 1948 to 1965. The first models, often referred to as "Pre-A", featured a two-piece windscreen and various design elements borrowed from the Volkswagen Beetle. Over the years, the 356 evolved into the 'A', 'B' and 'C' series, each marked by refinements and improvements. The distinctive shape of the 356, with its elegant curves, iconic round headlights and sloping roofline, has become synonymous with timeless elegance. The attention to detail in its design, combined with precision engineering, has contributed to the car's enduring appeal. In the United States, this difference takes on a particular significance and becomes a real opposition, as it is hard to imagine two types of cars more antinomic than an American car and a 356. Despite being at the opposite end of the American way of driving, it was to conquer the market on the other side of the Atlantic. Dressed in round and smooth lines, the myth was born in the guise of a beetle. But to get away from a style that had become archaic and to straighten out a line that was undeniably sluggish, the stylistic evolution of the 356 gave the car a few angles. As skillful as they were discreet, these alterations nevertheless preserved the car's original and endearing personality. Beneath its elegant bodywork, the Porsche 356 benefits from innovative engineering that sets it apart from its contemporaries. The configuration of rear engine and rear-wheel drive, a design philosophy also inherited from the Beetle, offered exceptional handling and agility. Lightweight construction, with aluminium body panels, contributed to the car's impressive power-to-weight ratio at the beginning. The 356 also had various engine options over the years, with air-cooled flat-four engines becoming a hallmark of Porsche sports cars. Collaboration with renowned engine builder Ernst Fuhrmann led to improvements in performance and reliability, cementing the 356's reputation both on the road and on the racetrack. The 356 borrowed a lot from the Beetle! In addition to its platform and torsion bar suspension, it has the same air-cooled four-cylinder engine, with a displacement reduced to 1086 cm3. Thus, rigged with forty modest horsepower (140 km/h), the 356/1100 continued its career until 1954. In April 1951, the 1300 version was launched, and in the autumn of the same year, the first 1500 cm3 with 60 bhp appeared. October 1952 saw the launch of the 1500 Super, with a now respectable 70 bhp. A major event was the introduction of Porsche's famous four-speed gearbox. Finally, the same year saw the appearance of the legendary American roadster, built at the request of Max Hoffmann, Porsche's importer in the United States. It was a forerunner of the Speedster, which appeared in September 1954. In the autumn of 1955, the 356 gave way to the 356 A. More comfortable, this second generation (excluding the Carrera) was built around two engines, the old 1300 and a new 1600 cm3. The 356 in racing: The Porsche 356 quickly earned its stripes on the racetrack, establishing Porsche as a force to be reckoned with in motor sport. Successes in events such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Mille Miglia and the Carrera Panamericana highlighted the 356's reliability, speed and overall performance. All these race victories played a crucial role in shaping the brand's identity and contributed to the car's popularity with sports driving enthusiasts. The reputation of the Porsche 356 has been earned above all in motor racing. Light, maneuverable, and equipped with a lively engine, it won the first edition of the "European Rally Championship” in 1953. It won the competition again in 1961 and the same year won the Rally Germany. The Porsche 356 won all 4 editions of the 'Liège-Rome-Liège' race (1952, 1954, 1957, 1959). It also won the 1956 Press on Regardless Rally and the 1960-1963 European Hill climb Championship. Although production of the Porsche 356 ceased in 1965, its legacy lives on. The car's timeless design, combined with its historical importance and racing pedigree, made it a sought-after collector's item, but it also paved the way for the iconic models that followed, notably the 911. Thus, thanks to a policy of small steps, which ensured a slow but steady rise in power, the 356, born with 40 bhp in 1950, culminated twelve years later with 130 bhp and almost double the engine capacity. The last 356 C left the production line in April 1965, a year after the launch of the 911. But the 356 would survive on its own through this new model, which was an extrapolation of it. With its reputation, Porsche ended up seducing a number of famous personalities. Owners of the 356 included former French President Georges Pompidou and King Beaudoin. Hollywood stars such as James Dean also succumbed to the charms of this emblematic model from the German manufacturer. Our Porsche 356 is a Pre-A from 1954: The current owner bought the car in 2015 from Automobilia in Reims with the aim of taking part in historic races such as the Tour Auto and the Tour de Corse. The car is in FIA GTS Race specification with a 136bhp engine and bespoke gearbox. The car will evolve with the races, notably at DG Racing in Yenne, where the engine was recently rebuilt. Our 356 has taken part in several Tour Auto events, including an index of performance victory in 2022. It is now sold ready to race with a revised gearbox. Eligible for the major historic events: Tour Auto, Le Mans Classic... this car is the absolute weapon to win the index. 1954 Porsche 356 Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

It won the competition again in 1961 and the same year won the Rally Germany. The Porsche 356 won all 4 editions of the 'Liège-Rome-Liège' race (1952, 1954, 1957, 1959). It also won the 1956 Press on Regardless Rally and the 1960-1963 European Hill climb Championship. Although production of the Porsche 356 ceased in 1965, its legacy lives on. The car's timeless design, combined with its historical importance and racing pedigree, made it a sought-after collector's item, but it also paved the way for the iconic models that followed, notably the 911. Thus, thanks to a policy of small steps, which ensured a slow but steady rise in power, the 356, born with 40 bhp in 1950, culminated twelve years later with 130 bhp and almost double the engine capacity. The last 356 C left the production line in April 1965, a year after the launch of the 911. But the 356 would survive on its own through this new model, which was an extrapolation of it. With its reputation, Porsche ended up seducing a number of famous personalities. Owners of the 356 included former French President Georges Pompidou and King Beaudoin. Hollywood stars such as James Dean also succumbed to the charms of this emblematic model from the German manufacturer. Our Porsche 356 is a Pre-A from 1954: The current owner bought the car in 2015 from Automobilia in Reims with the aim of taking part in historic races such as the Tour Auto and the Tour de Corse. The car is in FIA GTS Race specification with a 136bhp engine and bespoke gearbox. The car will evolve with the races, notably at DG Racing in Yenne, where the engine was recently rebuilt. Our 356 has taken part in several Tour Auto events, including an index of performance victory in 2022. It is now sold ready to race with a revised gearbox. Eligible for the major historic events: Tour Auto, Le Mans Classic... this car is the absolute weapon to win the index.

  • 1983 BMW 635 CSi Group A

    Please note that this lot is sold on a Bill of Sale. The 1970s witnessed all-out domination by BMW in the all-important European Touring Car Championship (ETCC); its 3.0 CSL “Batmobile” secured six Drivers’ and six Manufacturers’ titles in just seven years. However, the transition to Group A regulations in 1982 prompted a switch to the company’s new 3.5-litre 635 CSi model, the homologation of which led tuning specialists Alpina and Schnitzer Motorsport to jointly produce approximately 50 competition chassis between 1983 and 1985. Constructed across two distinct series, chassis E24-RA1-30 was a “late” first-series car initially delivered to Austrian gentleman driver, Karl Oppitzhauser, ahead of the 1984 ETCC season. Having previously raced and hill climbed such unlikely cars as a Lamborghini Miura and a Ferrari Dino 246 GTS—and attempted to qualify a privately-entered March 761 for the 1976 Austrian Grand Prix—Oppitzhauser’s motor racing resumé was certainly nothing if not varied. However, by the late 1970s, he had gained a reputation as a capable Touring Car driver, most notably in the potent Group 5 BMW 320 Turbo with which he competed between 1979 and 1983. Duly prepared by its owner’s eponymous team—and carrying sponsorship from German DIY store chain Bauhaus—E24-RA1-30 made its race debut in the 1984 500 km Monza, in which Oppitzhauser and co-driver Mario Zanuso finished 22nd overall. The car contested a further 10 ETCC rounds over the next three seasons, with Oppitzhauser principally sharing driving duties with fellow Austrian amateur, Georg Pacher. Pitted against works opposition from the likes of the TWR-Jaguar, TWR-Rover, and Eggenberger Volvo teams, their efforts were laudable; 8th place overall in the 1985 500 km Monza and 11th in the same year’s 500 km Salzburgring proving particular highlights. Significantly, former Hesketh Formula 1 driver Divina Galica shared E24-RA1-30 in the 1985 500 km Österreichring—although her race ended in retirement—while in mid-1986 the car was leased or sold to the Bavaria Automobiles team, which duly entered it in that year’s Spa 24 Hours. Driven by former Ligier Formula 1 pilot Francois Hesnault among others, the car failed to qualify for the event, marking the conclusion of its contemporary racing career. Acquired by the respected German race preparation specialist Brunn Racing in 2014, the car subsequently underwent a complete rebuild—albeit with great attention being paid to retaining all major components and the car’s remarkable patina—prior to entering the current ownership in 2017. It later underwent a full engine rebuild at Provence-based race preparation specialist Zig-Zag Motorsport Services in 2019 and is not recorded to have been driven since, with accompanying invoices totalling more than €30,000. Accompanied by four sets of spare wheels and FIA papers issued to the consigning owner, this car could be a highly competitive proposition for the Peter Auto Heritage Touring Cup and Motor Racing Legends Historic Touring Car Challenge, for which it is eligible and ideally suited. 1983 BMW 635 CSi Group A RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1967-ferrari-330-gtc-by-pininfarina-1

    Introduced at the Geneva Motor Show just two years after the 330 GT 2+2, the Ferrari 330 GTC struck a perfect balance between the comfort of the 2+2 and the performance of the 275 GTB. It shared the 275 GTB’s steering, suspension, and transmission, and with a wheelbase 10 inches shorter than the 2+2, the GTC delivered a far more dynamic driving experience. Its most thrilling feature was the Colombo V-12 engine, producing 300 horsepower, a 0–60 mph time under seven seconds, and a top speed of 150 mph—making Ferrari’s new touring model anything but tame. Design cues from earlier Ferraris are clear: The rear borrowed from the 275 GTS, while the front echoed the rare 500 Superfast. With the shorter wheelbase, rear seats were replaced by a luggage shelf. Like the elegant 250 GT Lusso, the 330 GTC featured slim A- and B-pillars, lending the cabin an airy feel and exceptional visibility. One of only 579 left-hand-drive examples of this highly refined model produced between 1966 and 1968, chassis 9487 was completed at Maranello in late December 1966 and earmarked for distribution to the Milanese dealer Gastone Crepaldi. Marque historian Marcel Massini notes that this car’s original factory specifications included metric instrumentation and a Metallic Silver exterior over Nero Franzi leather. After more than three years with its original owner in Milan, the Ferrari 330 GTC was exported to the United States. By October 1973, it appeared for sale in the FCA Newsletter from Jerry Ash of Denver, Colorado. Ash likely sold it to a California enthusiast, as it later surfaced at Ferrari of Los Gatos in December 1978. A San Francisco Examiner listing confirmed it retained its original colors and wore Borrani wire wheels. In July 1983, Alan Abreu of Danville, California, purchased the car and kept it for the next 30 years. He drove it regularly and maintained it diligently, as service records show. By early 1985, he had added nearly 17,000 kilometers (~10,563 miles) and returned it to Ferrari of Los Gatos for further servicing. By 2000, after another 12,000 kilometers (~7,456 miles), he enlisted Ferrari specialist Patrick Ottis of Berkeley to overhaul the electrical system, transaxle, driveshaft, and clutch. In 2007, Abreu commissioned Perfect Reflections of Hayward to complete a bare-metal repaint in Rosso Rubino, a period-correct color. At the same time, Autos International of Escondido retrimmed the interior in beige leather. This cosmetic restoration was bookended by additional mechanical work from Ottis. After three decades of attentive ownership, Abreu sold this GTC to a noted Ferrari collector in Utah. The new owner continued the tradition of meticulous care, spending over $6,000 on cosmetic detailing and $15,000 to source and install a correct-type Ferrari air-conditioning system. Combined with power windows, beige leather, a Talbot mirror, and a Becker Europa radio, the upgrades made this GTC a refined and capable grand tourer. In late 2018, 9487 was purchased by the noted Texas-based collector, Gene Ponder. Remaining with Ponder until the consignor’s purchase in 2022, this GTC was much admired but sparingly used while within his vast collection of fine European automobiles. Upon acquiring this GTC, the consignor immediately submitted it to Ferrari Classiche’s certification program, the results of which easily confirmed that 9487 still retains its original Pininfarina coachwork, chassis, V-12 engine, and five-speed gearbox. Additionally, the consignor had Ferrari of Central New Jersey execute more than $33,500 in mechanical servicing upon the drivetrain (brakes, clutch, ignition, and fuel)—in short, the sorting of components and systems that needed attention after the limited use seen during prior ownership. Now accompanied by a rich and highly detailed history file, alongside 2023 Ferrari Classiche certification documentation and service invoices, this supremely glamorous 330 GTC makes for—as its name suggests—a consummate grand touring coupe. Among the best driver’s cars produced by Maranello in the 1960s, it is sure to thrill its next caretaker for years to come. 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC by Pininfarina RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

In July 1983, Alan Abreu of Danville, California, purchased the car and kept it for the next 30 years. He drove it regularly and maintained it diligently, as service records show. By early 1985, he had added nearly 17,000 kilometers (~10,563 miles) and returned it to Ferrari of Los Gatos for further servicing. By 2000, after another 12,000 kilometers (~7,456 miles), he enlisted Ferrari specialist Patrick Ottis of Berkeley to overhaul the electrical system, transaxle, driveshaft, and clutch. In 2007, Abreu commissioned Perfect Reflections of Hayward to complete a bare-metal repaint in Rosso Rubino, a period-correct color. At the same time, Autos International of Escondido retrimmed the interior in beige leather. This cosmetic restoration was bookended by additional mechanical work from Ottis. After three decades of attentive ownership, Abreu sold this GTC to a noted Ferrari collector in Utah. The new owner continued the tradition of meticulous care, spending over $6,000 on cosmetic detailing and $15,000 to source and install a correct-type Ferrari air-conditioning system. Combined with power windows, beige leather, a Talbot mirror, and a Becker Europa radio, the upgrades made this GTC a refined and capable grand tourer. In late 2018, 9487 was purchased by the noted Texas-based collector, Gene Ponder. Remaining with Ponder until the consignor’s purchase in 2022, this GTC was much admired but sparingly used while within his vast collection of fine European automobiles. Upon acquiring this GTC, the consignor immediately submitted it to Ferrari Classiche’s certification program, the results of which easily confirmed that 9487 still retains its original Pininfarina coachwork, chassis, V-12 engine, and five-speed gearbox. Additionally, the consignor had Ferrari of Central New Jersey execute more than $33,500 in mechanical servicing upon the drivetrain (brakes, clutch, ignition, and fuel)—in short, the sorting of components and systems that needed attention after the limited use seen during prior ownership. Now accompanied by a rich and highly detailed history file, alongside 2023 Ferrari Classiche certification documentation and service invoices, this supremely glamorous 330 GTC makes for—as its name suggests—a consummate grand touring coupe. Among the best driver’s cars produced by Maranello in the 1960s, it is sure to thrill its next caretaker for years to come.

Woodson The original owner was the President of the Lone Star Region of the Porsche Club of America. I was the Secretary – Treasurer. Beto traded the 912 in at Norman Scott Volkswagen-Porsche on the Southwest Freeway in Houston, Texas in 1972. On February 07, 1972, I bought the Porsche 912 from Norman Scott Volkswagen-Porsche and have maintained and driven it for the past 53 years. The car has been properly maintained and never needed to be restored. My Porsche 912 was recently entered in the TOURING CONCURS sponsored by the Lone Star Region of the Porsche Club of America on January 4, 2025. It scored 179.3 out of a possible 180 points and won First Place in Division 3 911 & 912 (1965 to 1973). I bought the Porsche 912 for several reasons. I was introduced to Porsche by Hearde W., a fellow engineering student at Texas A & M. Hearde would buy 1950's and 60's 356 Porsches and together, we would rebuild the engines in our dorm room and then he would sell the cars. My first Porsche was a 1957 Porsche 356A coupe I bought after graduating from Texas A & M and going to work in Pennsylvania. I loved driving the car on the curvy mountainous roads in Latrobe State Park. I traded it in on a 914 in 1971 in Houston, Texas. The 914 was fun to drive, but I really wanted a 912. I decided to buy a 912 because I could perform any repairs that might be needed on a Porsche 4-cylinder engine. The early 911 six-cylinder engines were notorious for swallowing the valves, resulting in $4,000 repair bills. The 912's had better front-to-back weight distribution and balance because of the lighter weight of the engine. This helped to make up for the lower horsepower compared to the 911's. The superior balance of the 912 also reduced the oversteer on sharp cornering caused by the engine being outboard of the rear axle. I chose the 1969 Porsche 912 because it was the final year of production, and I wanted the latest four-cylinder engine version. The Bahama Yellow color was chosen by Porsche for many of the advertisements in 1969 because it made the sleek body design really stand out. The 1969 edition of the Porsche 911-912 in the Bahama Yellow color is still being used to show a cool vehicle in advertisements in 2025. See a couple of examples of these in the file. I bought this particular Porsche 912 because I knew that Beto had taken meticulous care of it, and the car still looked and drove like new when I bought it. This Porsche 912 was unusual because the tan color upholstery lit up the interior with the Bahama Yellow exterior. Most of the 911's and 912's of that era had black interiors. I participated in several rallies and auto cross events sponsored by the PCA Lone Star Region in the 1970's. The car was my daily driver into the 1980's. During the 1970's, I drove the Porsche 912 to Colorado and Yellowstone Park during the Memorial Day holiday over several consecutive years so I could enjoy driving it on curvy mountain roads. In 1984, we decided that since my daughter was born in 1969, the car should be hers when she turned 16. The engine was sitting in our garage waiting for a new generator to be installed. When she was 15, we put the engine on a makeshift work bench consisting of an old door on two sawhorses. Following my instructions and using my tools, she removed the fan housing and heads. I took the heads to have a valve job performed and inspected the cylinders and jugs. She re-installed the heads, installed the new generator, re-installed the fan housing, etc. and had the car ready to start on the morning of her sixteenth birthday. The look on her face that morning when the engine roared to life was worth a million dollars. She drove the car throughout high school and for several more years while earning a bachelor's degree in architecture at the University of Texas in Austin, Texas. My daughter begrudgingly allowed me to take the car back in the mid 1990's and I have driven it 500 to 1,500 miles per year since then to lunches, the golf course, family gatherings, and other events when the weather was nice. Every moving part under the car – tie rod ends, ball joints, torsion bar bushings, engine / transaxle supports, clutch cable, parking brake cable, rubber boots on various cables, brake pads, etc. were replaced during 2017-2018. The car has been driven about 5,000 miles since then. The car has always been garaged in Houston, Texas except for road trips during the summer. It has never been exposed to icy roads that were treated with salt. MAINTENANCE HISTORY During the 1970's and early 1980's, the car received regular maintenance by Norman Scott Porsche, Don McGill Porsche (now Porsche West Houston) and me. I did most of the oil changes, plugs, points, condenser, and valve adjustments. Anything more complicated than that was done by a professional garage, usually the dealer. In 1969, the 912 came equipped with Solex carburetors that were augmented by an air pump and other troublesome pollution control devices. About 1975 or so, I swapped them out for the more reliable Weber carburetors to provide better stability and more power. Almost everything that moves on the car has a replaceable bushing. At 50,000 miles, sometime in the early 1980's, the disk brake pads, tie rod ends, ball joints and shocks were replaced. Replacing worn bushings and other suspension parts restored the driving experience back to a like new condition. In 1988, the engine was removed and overhauled. The crankshaft was magnafluxed and determined to be in good condition. New 1,800 cc cylinders and pistons were installed, and the heads received a valve job. New Weber carburetors were also installed, and the clutch, pressure plate, and throw-out bearing were replaced. At about 20 to 25 years old, many of the plastic and rubber parts began to get stiff, crack, and otherwise deteriorate. This included decorative items and functional items like clutch cable guides. These were routinely replaced with new parts as it became necessary to maintain appearance and functionality. By replacing deteriorated parts and they wore, the car has been maintained for over 50 years. A major restoration was never necessary because of correctly performed preventative maintenance. In 1992 or 1993 I took the car to a company named International Body and had them repaint the vehicle with Sherwin-Williams SunFire premium polyurethane clearcoat system. I also had the same premium clearcoat applied to the mag wheels. It really made them shine. Substantial maintenance was performed by F2 Motorwerks in Houston in 2005. In addition to a tune up and oil change, the gear shift mechanism and disk brake calipers were overhauled, and any oil seepage repaired. F2's upholstery specialist was able to find the exact same material in the same color and pattern used to upholster the seats and doors when the car was new. The worn materials were replaced, and the driver's side seat frame was weld repaired to restore its original upright position. In 2016, F2 performed another tune up and oil change. I did the oil changes and tune ups in my garage from 2006 to 2015. They also installed new transaxle mounts, new hood and trunk shock supports, a new reverse light switch on the gear shift mechanism and adjusted and lubricated the gear shift mechanism. In 2018, I was informed about STR Motorsport, USA, Inc. The company operated a garage in northwest Houston that specialized in Porsche 912's. I took the car to them, evaluated their facility, and assigned them multiple repair and upgrade tasks. These tasks included: remove the engine, install a new clutch kit consisting of throw-out bearing, clutch plate, and pressure place; install new exhaust gaskets; machine the pressure plate; install new front and rear crankshaft seals; install new bushings on the ends of the front and rear torsion bars; install new strut inserts and rear shock absorbers; disassemble and clean all the engine parts including the outside of engine case, cylinders, and heads; install new oil cooler; install new muffler; and numerous other minor repairs such as replacing 50 year old parts like all flexible fuel lines, removing and lubricating all cables, and servicing the air conditioner, repairing the original Blaupunkt radio, etc. Details are available in the accompanying dossier. The owner of STR Motorsport was a manager at an international air freight shipping operation. He closed the shop when he was transferred to Salt Lake City in 2019, so I went back to F2 Motorwerks. In 2020, F2 performed a tune up and oil change. The original 1969 serpentine air conditioning condenser was removed and replaced with a new technology Vintage SuperFlow parallel flow condenser and a 12” electric fan to enhance the condensing of the freon. New hoses and new electrical controls were installed. The evaporator was removed, cleaned and the expansion valve was replaced with a new R134a refrigerant valve. The system was flushed, and the refrigerant was changed from the original Freon 12 to R134a. Having worked my way through a couple years of engineering college designing air conditioning systems for commercial buildings, I re-designed the original A/C system and selected the parts for the upgraded system for my Porsche. For the first time in 50 years, the air conditioner cooled in traffic at low engine speeds like it was supposed to. I evaluated the A/C upgrade kits that were commercially available, and it appeared they all continued to use the 1960's era serpentine condensers. This ignored the point that the basic flaw of the original A/C system was failure to condense the freon at low air flow during slow engine and vehicle speeds, especially in stop and go traffic. The new fan installed on the air conditioning condenser required 6.5 amps. By replacing the incandescent headlights with new LED headlights, the load on the generator from the headlights was reduced from 12 amps to 4 amps. This kept the original Bosch generator operating within specifications when the air conditioner was operating at full blast with the headlights on. Changing the headlights eliminated the need to convert to an aftermarket alternator for electrical power. While at F2 Metrowerks in 2020, the right rear axle, complete with new CV joints, was replaced. Also in 2020, the clutch cable, including all the guides, connections, and boots was replaced. The windshield reservoir, motor, tubes, etc. were replaced to restore proper operating function of the windshield cleaning system. In 2021, a new battery was installed and a new sound system consisting of a Kenwood Bluetooth amplifier with four Kenwood speakers was installed. This enabled music, or anything else from an iPhone to be played while driving. Also in 2021, Einar's Garage became the main repair shop used for maintaining the Porsche 912. F2 Motorwerks specializes in BMW's, but has a lot of experience with Porsche. They were very good with anything Bosch. Einar specialized exclusively in Porsche. Einar has a technician with a lot of expertise in carbureted Porsche engines. After 40 plus years of concentrating on fuel injection, finding someone who could properly tune carburetors has become increasingly difficult. One of the technicians who had worked at STR Motorsport also was available through Einar's Garage. In 2021, Einar's Garage installed a new fuel pump, tuned carburetors, changed oil & filter, adjusted valves, installed new A/C parts, installed new engine sound insulation, new front hood and trunk struts, inspected the suspension work performed by STR Motorsports, and sent the original Blaupunkt radio to a specialist for repairs. New tires were installed in 2022. In 2023, Einar's Garage replaced the fan/ generator belt and the A/C Belt, changed the oil, spark plugs, and generally tuned up the engine, replaced the oil pressure sensor, adjusted the clutch pedal, and replaced the rubber boots on the accelerator cable, the shift rod, and the speedometer. They also disassembled the driver's side door and installed a new door check stop, window felt, and window channels. They lubricated and adjusted the window regulator. This work was to make the window easier to roll up and down. The repairs and upgrades to the Porsche 912 from 2018 to 2023 totaled about $19,000. The car was immaculate and looked and drove like it just came out of the showroom. In February 2023, a fault in the 54-year-old wiring in the engine compartment caused a minor fire. Einar removed the engine and transmission, determined that no damage had been done to the housing/block, cylinders, pistons, heads or other critical components. Five new wiring harnesses were installed to replace all the wiring in the car. Memorial Collision bead blasted the engine bay, replaced the engine lid, grill, and the rear window and repainted the entire car with a premium polyurethane clearcoat system to match. With that new paint system, the car looked new and will stay that way for many years with very minimum maintenance. Einar installed a new generator, new carburetors, new distributor, additional components and calibrated. F2's automotive air conditioning specialists installed a new compressor, new Vintage SuperFlow condenser, new condenser fan, hoses, fitting, and electrical harnesses. The car performs exceptionally well and is by far the most mechanically dialed, comfortable, and summer weather ready 912 we have experienced. 1969 Porsche 912 Driver Source Fine Motorcars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

My daughter begrudgingly allowed me to take the car back in the mid 1990's and I have driven it 500 to 1,500 miles per year since then to lunches, the golf course, family gatherings, and other events when the weather was nice. Every moving part under the car – tie rod ends, ball joints, torsion bar bushings, engine / transaxle supports, clutch cable, parking brake cable, rubber boots on various cables, brake pads, etc. were replaced during 2017-2018. The car has been driven about 5,000 miles since then. The car has always been garaged in Houston, Texas except for road trips during the summer. It has never been exposed to icy roads that were treated with salt. MAINTENANCE HISTORY During the 1970's and early 1980's, the car received regular maintenance by Norman Scott Porsche, Don McGill Porsche (now Porsche West Houston) and me. I did most of the oil changes, plugs, points, condenser, and valve adjustments. Anything more complicated than that was done by a professional garage, usually the dealer. In 1969, the 912 came equipped with Solex carburetors that were augmented by an air pump and other troublesome pollution control devices. About 1975 or so, I swapped them out for the more reliable Weber carburetors to provide better stability and more power. Almost everything that moves on the car has a replaceable bushing. At 50,000 miles, sometime in the early 1980's, the disk brake pads, tie rod ends, ball joints and shocks were replaced. Replacing worn bushings and other suspension parts restored the driving experience back to a like new condition. In 1988, the engine was removed and overhauled. The crankshaft was magnafluxed and determined to be in good condition. New 1,800 cc cylinders and pistons were installed, and the heads received a valve job. New Weber carburetors were also installed, and the clutch, pressure plate, and throw-out bearing were replaced. At about 20 to 25 years old, many of the plastic and rubber parts began to get stiff, crack, and otherwise deteriorate. This included decorative items and functional items like clutch cable guides. These were routinely replaced with new parts as it became necessary to maintain appearance and functionality. By replacing deteriorated parts and they wore, the car has been maintained for over 50 years. A major restoration was never necessary because of correctly performed preventative maintenance. In 1992 or 1993 I took the car to a company named International Body and had them repaint the vehicle with Sherwin-Williams SunFire premium polyurethane clearcoat system. I also had the same premium clearcoat applied to the mag wheels. It really made them shine. Substantial maintenance was performed by F2 Motorwerks in Houston in 2005. In addition to a tune up and oil change, the gear shift mechanism and disk brake calipers were overhauled, and any oil seepage repaired. F2's upholstery specialist was able to find the exact same material in the same color and pattern used to upholster the seats and doors when the car was new. The worn materials were replaced, and the driver's side seat frame was weld repaired to restore its original upright position. In 2016, F2 performed another tune up and oil change. I did the oil changes and tune ups in my garage from 2006 to 2015. They also installed new transaxle mounts, new hood and trunk shock supports, a new reverse light switch on the gear shift mechanism and adjusted and lubricated the gear shift mechanism. In 2018, I was informed about STR Motorsport, USA, Inc. The company operated a garage in northwest Houston that specialized in Porsche 912's. I took the car to them, evaluated their facility, and assigned them multiple repair and upgrade tasks. These tasks included: remove the engine, install a new clutch kit consisting of throw-out bearing, clutch plate, and pressure place; install new exhaust gaskets; machine the pressure plate; install new front and rear crankshaft seals; install new bushings on the ends of the front and rear torsion bars; install new strut inserts and rear shock absorbers; disassemble and clean all the engine parts including the outside of engine case, cylinders, and heads; install new oil cooler; install new muffler; and numerous other minor repairs such as replacing 50 year old parts like all flexible fuel lines, removing and lubricating all cables, and servicing the air conditioner, repairing the original Blaupunkt radio, etc. Details are available in the accompanying dossier. The owner of STR Motorsport was a manager at an international air freight shipping operation. He closed the shop when he was transferred to Salt Lake City in 2019, so I went back to F2 Motorwerks. In 2020, F2 performed a tune up and oil change. The original 1969 serpentine air conditioning condenser was removed and replaced with a new technology Vintage SuperFlow parallel flow condenser and a 12” electric fan to enhance the condensing of the freon. New hoses and new electrical controls were installed. The evaporator was removed, cleaned and the expansion valve was replaced with a new R134a refrigerant valve. The system was flushed, and the refrigerant was changed from the original Freon 12 to R134a. Having worked my way through a couple years of engineering college designing air conditioning systems for commercial buildings, I re-designed the original A/C system and selected the parts for the upgraded system for my Porsche. For the first time in 50 years, the air conditioner cooled in traffic at low engine speeds like it was supposed to. I evaluated the A/C upgrade kits that were commercially available, and it appeared they all continued to use the 1960's era serpentine condensers. This ignored the point that the basic flaw of the original A/C system was failure to condense the freon at low air flow during slow engine and vehicle speeds, especially in stop and go traffic. The new fan installed on the air conditioning condenser required 6.5 amps. By replacing the incandescent headlights with new LED headlights, the load on the generator from the headlights was reduced from 12 amps to 4 amps. This kept the original Bosch generator operating within specifications when the air conditioner was operating at full blast with the headlights on. Changing the headlights eliminated the need to convert to an aftermarket alternator for electrical power. While at F2 Metrowerks in 2020, the right rear axle, complete with new CV joints, was replaced. Also in 2020, the clutch cable, including all the guides, connections, and boots was replaced. The windshield reservoir, motor, tubes, etc. were replaced to restore proper operating function of the windshield cleaning system. In 2021, a new battery was installed and a new sound system consisting of a Kenwood Bluetooth amplifier with four Kenwood speakers was installed. This enabled music, or anything else from an iPhone to be played while driving. Also in 2021, Einar's Garage became the main repair shop used for maintaining the Porsche 912. F2 Motorwerks specializes in BMW's, but has a lot of experience with Porsche. They were very good with anything Bosch. Einar specialized exclusively in Porsche. Einar has a technician with a lot of expertise in carbureted Porsche engines. After 40 plus years of concentrating on fuel injection, finding someone who could properly tune carburetors has become increasingly difficult. One of the technicians who had worked at STR Motorsport also was available through Einar's Garage. In 2021, Einar's Garage installed a new fuel pump, tuned carburetors, changed oil & filter, adjusted valves, installed new A/C parts, installed new engine sound insulation, new front hood and trunk struts, inspected the suspension work performed by STR Motorsports, and sent the original Blaupunkt radio to a specialist for repairs. New tires were installed in 2022. In 2023, Einar's Garage replaced the fan/ generator belt and the A/C Belt, changed the oil, spark plugs, and generally tuned up the engine, replaced the oil pressure sensor, adjusted the clutch pedal, and replaced the rubber boots on the accelerator cable, the shift rod, and the speedometer. They also disassembled the driver's side door and installed a new door check stop, window felt, and window channels. They lubricated and adjusted the window regulator. This work was to make the window easier to roll up and down. The repairs and upgrades to the Porsche 912 from 2018 to 2023 totaled about $19,000. The car was immaculate and looked and drove like it just came out of the showroom. In February 2023, a fault in the 54-year-old wiring in the engine compartment caused a minor fire. Einar removed the engine and transmission, determined that no damage had been done to the housing/block, cylinders, pistons, heads or other critical components. Five new wiring harnesses were installed to replace all the wiring in the car. Memorial Collision bead blasted the engine bay, replaced the engine lid, grill, and the rear window and repainted the entire car with a premium polyurethane clearcoat system to match. With that new paint system, the car looked new and will stay that way for many years with very minimum maintenance. Einar installed a new generator, new carburetors, new distributor, additional components and calibrated. F2's automotive air conditioning specialists installed a new compressor, new Vintage SuperFlow condenser, new condenser fan, hoses, fitting, and electrical harnesses. The car performs exceptionally well and is by far the most mechanically dialed, comfortable, and summer weather ready 912 we have experienced.

  • 1980-porsche-911-30-sc

    Some cars need no introduction. This 1979 Porsche 911 3.0 Targa speaks for itself — and it does so with a wonderfully raw, air-cooled voice. With its distinctive whirr of the air-cooled flat-six and the iconic Targa roof, this is and always will be a joy to drive. The 911 SC (Super Carrera) marked an important chapter for Porsche: stronger, more reliable, and — thanks to its galvanized chassis — finally better protected against rust. Combine that with the timeless G-series design, and you’ve got the perfect 911 for those who prefer driving over polishing. Roof off, key turned. Endless summer evenings where the journey matters more than the destination. And then there’s this particular example: straight from Bari, southern Italy — an Italian at heart and soul. Registered in Milan in 1980 and lovingly maintained for years, as evidenced by the original service stamps and registration booklet. Finished in its original 908 Grand Prix White. True to its passionate Italian nature, the engine gave its final breath after many loyal years. So it was time for new fire: a fully rebuilt engine brought this Targa back to life a few years ago, ready for its next chapter. Service history by Rose Passion, the Porsche specialist.

  • 1991 Porsche 911 Carrera 4

    This 1991 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet is finished in Midnight Blue Metallic and has been under the care of just 3 owners from new. Showing 154,411 km, this car has been kept in outstanding overall condition and is equipped with a number of desirable options. Produced in October of 1990 as a German market car, this car was delivered to its first owner on December 12th 1990. The dark Midnight Blue Metallic paint is paired with a special order dark blue fabric soft top, which remains in exceptional shape and even has a crystal clear plastic rear window- a rarity in cars of this era. With many 964s receiving countless modifications over the past 30 years, this car on its original Design 90 wheels is a refreshing view of what an original 964 would have looked like in period. The interior of the car is wrapped in Fashion Gray with leather covering the seats, shift boot, and lower door cards. The interior is in remarkable condition, and in this example, the front seats are fitted with power adjustment and seat heating. Although the exterior of the car is largely original, a few modifications have been carried out inside the car to improve the experience- the standard 4-spoke steering wheel has been swapped out for one of the most common Porsche upgrades, a Momo Prototipo. Additionally, the stereo has been changed out for a modern Blaupunkt Bremen head unit, which looks period correct but gives the 964 Bluetooth and MP3 capabilities. Sitting behind the passengers is a 3.6 liter naturally aspirated flat 6, rated at 247 horsepower and 228 lb-ft of torque. Although that doesn’t sound like much in modern terms, it was enough to propel the 964 from 0-60 mph in 5.5 seconds and on to a top speed in excess of 160 mph. This is then run through a 5-speed manual transaxle with power sent to all four wheels. This was the first Porsche outside of the 959 hypercar to be fitted with all-wheel drive, which made the car exceptionally surefooted in any weather but still gave a classic sports car experience thanks to the 31/69 front/rear power split. One of the largest changes on the 964 was the introduction of coil springs instead of the torsion bars that were fitted to all previous 911s. Using MacPherson struts up front and semi-trailing arms in the rear, the 964 offered more tunability and far more predictable handling at the limit. With its classic looks and driving experience, paired with some modern refinement, it is no surprise that the 964 has become one of the most sought-after 911s in the collector car world. This example presents in outstanding condition and would be a perfect companion for top down summer enjoyment, but would be just as at home on a trip up to the mountains to go skiing. 1991 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 ISSIMI, Inc If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1984-renault-5-maxi-turbo

    An historically significant car, long regarded as a cornerstone of the British Maxi Turbo story. The only genuine ‘Works’ Maxi privately campaigned in the UK in period. Developed during the height of Group B’s technical arms race, the Renault 5 Maxi Turbo remains one of the most evocative and uncompromising rally cars of the 1980s. This example — chassis number #201, also known as car number 16 — was developed by John Price and is widely regarded as a cornerstone of the British Maxi Turbo story. To meet homologation requirements, just 20 works Renault 5 Maxi Turbos were constructed in 1985. Of these, 12 were retained for active competition, while the remainder were dismantled to support the works rally programme. John Price, a frequent visitor to Renault Sport Dieppe, was often captivated by the Maxis and had long hoped to acquire one. In 1986, he was offered the choice of the last six cars on stands, and selected chassis #201 (Car 16), which arrived without engine, gearbox, or suspension. Over the next two years, he assembled a suitable engine — a 1527cc unit producing around 340bhp, combining elements of the TDC and Maxi5 Turbo engines but avoiding the complexity of the DPV system and stepper-motor-driven Bosch fuel injection. A Maxi Turbo magnesium-alloy gearbox with works rally ratios was fitted, while suspension and ancillary parts were sourced through Price’s contacts at Dieppe. The car retained its original aluminium roll cage, fabricated in 1985 by German specialists Matter, each component stamped #20 1985 Matter. Once completed, the car debuted competitively at the West Cork Rally in March 1988, finishing 3rd overall. That season included strong results at the Circuit of Kerry, Burmah Rallysprint, Manx National, and Wexford, with retirement at the Rally of the Lakes due to gearbox issues. The 1989 season saw further podium finishes, though John soon shifted focus to the four-wheel-drive Metro 6R4, and the Maxi was laid up. Over the following decades, the car passed through private collectors, with Price reacquiring it at various points. Its complete ownership history is documented in a signed ‘Story of EXI 1465’, which will be available to view at the auction or sent to interested parties. In more recent times, EXI 1465 was invited to Renault’s Dunsfold facility, where it was digitally recorded for a Sony PlayStation rally title, and later served as a course car for the 2010 Tour of Epynt. It was subsequently driven at La Vie en Bleu at Prescott, where Price secured class honours in 2011, marking his final public outing in car #16. Mechanically, the car remains pretty much as it was at Prescott, with minor updates including slightly larger brake discs. It retains its genuine, factory body-shell, with original Kevlar, carbon-fibre, and aluminium panels preserved. The engine is a John Price Rallying 1527cc Maxi unit with Garratt T3 turbocharger, large-valve cylinder head, Bosch K-Tronic mechanical fuel injection, dry sump with remote oil cooler and intercooler, producing around 340bhp at 6,500rpm. The car is fitted with the factory Maxi magnesium-alloy gearbox, factory rally ratio gear-set, Maxi steering rack, Maxi brake discs, front steel suspension, Tour de Course rear alloy suspension uprights, and the original Matter aluminium roll cage. In early 2013, the car was sold to new custodians who refinished it in John Price’s iconic 1988 rally livery, faithfully recreating one of the most recognisable British Maxi Turbo colour schemes. The current seller acquired the car in 2017, and in 2018 it was again recorded at Nicholson McLaren Engines for a second Sony PlayStation title, reportedly run to full load on the dynamometer. Today, the car remains finished in its striking, hand-painted 1988 livery and sits on white genuine Maxi multi-spoke alloy wheels, shod with Michelin tyres and complemented by red mud flaps. The cockpit retains its unmistakable period atmosphere, featuring the original stamped Matter aluminium alloy roll cage. Due to the presence of this original cage, the car is no longer eligible for modern competition use. Instead, it stands as an exceptionally important collector piece — a tangible link to the golden era of British rallying and a rare example of a works-derived Maxi Turbo with continuous period association. Of course, all dimensions are available, so a FIA steel roll-cage would be relatively simple to have fabricated and fitted as John actually did for the 2011 Vie en Bleu outing. The car is accompanied by a comprehensive ‘Story of EXI 1465’ document, containing period photographs, results and supporting material that chart its development, competition history and long-term custodianship. This document was signed by the late John Price and his son Steve. The most recent full service was carried out in 2023 by Welch Motorsport, including replacement of the oil pump, with prior servicing completed by Intersport Racing in 2020. EXI 1465 represents a rare opportunity to acquire a defining artefact from rallying’s most fearless decade. Closely associated with John Price and offered in his iconic 1988 livery, it occupies a significant place in the history of the British rally scene and stands as a centrepiece-worthy addition to any serious motorsport collection. 1984 Renault 5 Maxi Turbo Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright An historically significant car, long regarded as a cornerstone of the British Maxi Turbo story. The only genuine ‘Works’ Maxi privately campaigned in the UK in period. Developed during the height of Group B’s technical arms race, the Renault 5 Maxi Turbo remains one of the most evocative and uncompromising rally cars of the 1980s. This example — chassis number #201, also known as car number 16 — was developed by John Price and is widely regarded as a cornerstone of the British Maxi Turbo story. To meet homologation requirements, just 20 works Renault 5 Maxi Turbos were constructed in 1985. Of these, 12 were retained for active competition, while the remainder were dismantled to support the works rally programme. John Price, a frequent visitor to Renault Sport Dieppe, was often captivated by the Maxis and had long hoped to acquire one. In 1986, he was offered the choice of the last six cars on stands, and selected chassis #201 (Car 16), which arrived without engine, gearbox, or suspension. Over the next two years, he assembled a suitable engine — a 1527cc unit producing around 340bhp, combining elements of the TDC and Maxi5 Turbo engines but avoiding the complexity of the DPV system and stepper-motor-driven Bosch fuel injection. A Maxi Turbo magnesium-alloy gearbox with works rally ratios was fitted, while suspension and ancillary parts were sourced through Price’s contacts at Dieppe. The car retained its original aluminium roll cage, fabricated in 1985 by German specialists Matter, each component stamped #20 1985 Matter. Once completed, the car debuted competitively at the West Cork Rally in March 1988, finishing 3rd overall. That season included strong results at the Circuit of Kerry, Burmah Rallysprint, Manx National, and Wexford, with retirement at the Rally of the Lakes due to gearbox issues. The 1989 season saw further podium finishes, though John soon shifted focus to the four-wheel-drive Metro 6R4, and the Maxi was laid up. Over the following decades, the car passed through private collectors, with Price reacquiring it at various points. Its complete ownership history is documented in a signed ‘Story of EXI 1465’, which will be available to view at the auction or sent to interested parties.

    This 1963 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster represents the final and most refined evolution of the legendary W198 series and is one of approximately 210 alloy-block, disc-brake Roadsters built. Notably, it is among the last examples produced and delivered after the official end of production. Ordered new on January 5, 1963 by Bernard Greunke, Milwaukee, the car was collected through tourist delivery in Stuttgart on March 4, 1963. Its early history is exceptionally documented, including the original purchase invoice. The car has had just 4 owners from new, including a 41-year long-term ownership (1973–2014), during which it was carefully preserved incl. its original leather and maintained. The current owner has held the car for the past 10 years. It comes with a German registration and shows a total indicated mileage of 43.487 miles. Accompanied by extensive documentation, a renowned expert report with number and material verification, factory hardtop, books, and tools. A truly exceptional late-production 300 SL Roadster—rare, authentic, and historically significant. 1963 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Thiesen Hamburg GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
