  • 1989 Ferrari F40

    Enquire Send to a friend Send to WhatsApp Ferrari's 201 mph F40 is the definitive supercar and has a formidable reputation alongside the 250 GTO as possibly the best road Ferrari built to date. With the F40, Pininfarina produced an era-defining creation, one that even today is instantly recognisable by old and young enthusiasts alike. F40's were closely derived from the experimental GTO Evoluzione and the road-going 288 GTO (that the F40 replaced). The design features a tubular steel chassis with bonded composite inserts, most notably around the sills and floor pan, The 2,936 cc motor produces approximately 500 bhp at 7,000 rpm with the help of two water-cooled IHI turbochargers running 1.1 bar of boost. At 1,202 kg, the F40 had, and still has, a phenomenal power-to-weight ratio. Shatteringly fast by any comparison (especially for 1988), the F40 can sprint from 0-60 mph in just 4.4 seconds and hit 201 mph flat out making it the first production car to surpass this mystical boundary. This example was first supplied on 10th May 1989 as a ‘Diretta’ sale to Miss Elisabeth Kawan of Salzburg. Miss Kawan had earned her fame in 1982, being crowned Miss Austria and would later marry Formula One boss and serial entrepreneur Walter Wolf. The car was imported to the UK later that year by Mr Barratt who paid £895,000 for the car at the first peak of their values! Speaking recently he recalled driving the car just after purchase to the Ferrari Owners Club Christmas party in December 1989. Barratt would retain the car for several years, receiving both its 1,000 KM & 10,000 KM services in the UK. The car has been enjoyed regularly by each of its owners, and by 1996, it had covered 28,700 kilometres. The car was later exported to Holland and sold by Ferrari Kroymans who would service the car regularly between 1998 and 2002. During their time servicing the car for its owner, it would see continued regular exercise. The service history documents the mileage and during that four-year period, the car would cover a not inconsiderable 16,500 kilometres. The car spent six months in Germany before purchase by the most recent owner, in Austria once more in 2007. At the time of purchase the car was sent to Michelotto where a major service was carried out including fuel tanks and belts. In the care of the most recent owner, the car has been used more sparingly and as such covered just 3,000 kilometres in the past 15 years. The most recent owner had the car several times and most recently carrying out a major service including belts and fuel tanks once more in March 2022.

  • 1968 Iso Grifo GL 350 Series 1

    Fully restored Delivered in silver (argento) Only 242 vehicles produced in the 1st series Legendary Italian GT with powerful Chevrolet V8 350 HP engine and 4-speed manual gearbox Like many manufacturers after the Second World War, Renzo Rivolta dreamed of building a grand touring car and produced the Iso Rivolta in 1962. The following year, a more sportive and powerful successor to the Rivolta, the Grifo, was introduced, and and were delivered to customers from 1965 on. Giorgetto Giugiaro from Bertone, who later also designed the Maserati Ghibli and the BMW M1, was responsible for the impressive appearance with its deep and wide design. The chassis was developed by Giotto Bizzarrini, who was also the designer of the Ferrari 250 GTO. Combined with the robust and powerful Chevrolet engine, there was no doubt that this car could compete with some of the best sports cars in the world. The vehicle presented here was completely restored a few years ago and is part of an important collection of Italian sports cars. The vehicle has a German registration.

  • 1970 Porsche 911 S

    They've outlasted hippies, disco and yuppies. Is it any wonder they hold their value so well? In 1964, the Porsche "901" was born in Stuttgart. After Armand Peugeot and Ferdinand Porsche had argued about the 0 in the middle, Ferdinand chose eggs for his money. Something to do with the motto; Choose your battles. The "911" was an instant hit; Today Porsche is equivalent to the 911. In 1966, Porsche introduced its first S variant with an upgraded power to 158 hp. In addition, it received thicker lips at the front thanks to a subtle front spoiler to improve aerodynamics and it was the very first time that the well-known 5 spoke fuchs rims were available on a car. All in all, definitely something with a faster cherry on the card! And ours in particular; a copy with everything our air-cooled heart desires: A fully restored Porsche with a revised engine and gearbox. Body has been completely overhauled and a brand new Pepita interior. A well-known history and a well-filled folder of invoices. Original Italian delivered. We've got you covered.

  • 1973 Ferrari Dino 246 GTS by Scaglietti

    One of only six RHD, UK delivery 246 GTS Dinos finished in Blu Chiaro Metallizzato, chassis no. 07182 is unequivocally one of the most spectacular of the 256 UK delivery cars to come to market in recent memory. Invoiced to Maranello Concessionaires in October of 1973, factory invoices show this Dino was equipped with electric windows, metallic paint, and black cloth seat inserts alongside a Beige leather interior. Rather than remaining in Great Britain, it was sold new to Henry Linton Cars Ltd. of Jersey in the Channel Islands. Amazingly, the car’s history file contains documentation tracing its history all the way back to 1975 when the car was registered to Digby Martland of St. John. Martland was a well-known racing driver in the UK and is noted as being Chevron’s first GT customer, sharing a works-entered Chevron B16 with Clive Baker in the 1970 24 Hours Le Mans. The Dino returned to Britain in 1977 when it was sold via the Greencoat Motor Company on Vauxhall Bridge Road in London to C. Speairs. Invoiced to Mr. Speairs out of an address in London, Speairs was the director of the Australian Express newspaper, which had an office in London, but the Dino itself would be for him to enjoy in his native Australia. The Dino was loaded onto the MV Abel Tasman, and scheduled for arrival in Brisbane in March of 1978. Early Australian ownership is chronicled in a document included in the file and perhaps most interestingly, the car was purchased by Ralph Howie of Sydney in October of 1983 having seen a classified ad which also remains in the car’s file: “Ferrari 246 Dino Targa: $29,750. Almost concours condition. Low mileage. Excellent mechanicals, body, interior. New Pioneer stereo cassette. Michelin tyres. Superb car for the collector.” Remaining in Sydney, the Dino was purchased by Peter Steensel in December 1983 and he would go on to own the car until 1999. Paul Stevenson, also of Sydney, would be the car’s next owner. It would be Stevenson who would export the car back to the UK and shortly after its arrival, it was acquired by Geoffrey Rollason of London. Mario Bondini of Surrey was the car’s next owner, acquiring it in 2014. The car was certified by Ferrari Classiche in 2020 in his ownership, confirming that it retains its original chassis, engine, gearbox, and bodywork. There are a number of service invoices on hand from its time back in the UK, all from authorized Ferrari dealerships or specialist workshops including Meridien Modena, Autofficina, and Bob Houghton. Following this work the car was invited to the prestigious Cartier “Style et Luxe” Concours D’Elegance at Goodwood’s Festival of Speed. In the summer of 2024, it was decided that the Dino would be returned to its as-delivered specification of Blu Chiaro Metallizzato over Beige with black fabric inserts. Webster and Lancaster in Watford was contracted to strip the car back and repaint, painstakingly ensuring the colour was period correct with the help of both colour period photographs and Dino expert Matthias Bartz. Whilst the interior was retrimmed simultaneously by O’Rourke Coachtrimmers in West Sussex. Photos of this work are available in the history file. The results speak for themselves; the Dino is truly spectacular to behold. The car’s history file is spectacular, chronicling its journey from Jersey to London, then Australia, and back again, and also warrants the car’s mileage, showing less than 52,500 miles, as original. Importantly, the car is also accompanied by its original manuals and service book, which even bears a stamp from a service in Jersey in April of 1974. Finding a beautifully restored and tastefully specified Dino with a known history from new and Classiche certification to its name is a more difficult task than one would imagine. Only six RHD Dinos were finished in Blu Chiaro Metallizzato, making this car all the more remarkable. With its unique special order interior all it needs now is an enthusiastic new owner ready to cherish and enjoy it for years to come. 1973 Ferrari Dino 246 GTS by Scaglietti RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Mario Bondini of Surrey was the car’s next owner, acquiring it in 2014. The car was certified by Ferrari Classiche in 2020 in his ownership, confirming that it retains its original chassis, engine, gearbox, and bodywork. There are a number of service invoices on hand from its time back in the UK, all from authorized Ferrari dealerships or specialist workshops including Meridien Modena, Autofficina, and Bob Houghton. Following this work the car was invited to the prestigious Cartier “Style et Luxe” Concours D’Elegance at Goodwood’s Festival of Speed. In the summer of 2024, it was decided that the Dino would be returned to its as-delivered specification of Blu Chiaro Metallizzato over Beige with black fabric inserts. Webster and Lancaster in Watford was contracted to strip the car back and repaint, painstakingly ensuring the colour was period correct with the help of both colour period photographs and Dino expert Matthias Bartz. Whilst the interior was retrimmed simultaneously by O’Rourke Coachtrimmers in West Sussex. Photos of this work are available in the history file. The results speak for themselves; the Dino is truly spectacular to behold. The car’s history file is spectacular, chronicling its journey from Jersey to London, then Australia, and back again, and also warrants the car’s mileage, showing less than 52,500 miles, as original. Importantly, the car is also accompanied by its original manuals and service book, which even bears a stamp from a service in Jersey in April of 1974. Finding a beautifully restored and tastefully specified Dino with a known history from new and Classiche certification to its name is a more difficult task than one would imagine. Only six RHD Dinos were finished in Blu Chiaro Metallizzato, making this car all the more remarkable. With its unique special order interior all it needs now is an enthusiastic new owner ready to cherish and enjoy it for years to come.

  • 1960 Ferrari 250 GT 1

    This superb Ferrari 250 GT Pininfarina Coupe Series II is a very special and original car. It is the latest type of 508F chassis’ and the latest engine development of the Tipo 128F V12 engine. The car was ordered new by United States Air Force Captain John C. Malone in Februari 1960. Mr. J.C. Malone was stationed in Tokyo at the time. In March 1960, the car was shipped directly from Italy to Yokohama, making it the very first Ferrari imported into Japan! This arrival created quite a stir, Prancing Horse wrote that stories about the car were published in the Yokohama and Tokyo newspapers. When Mr. J.C. Malone moved back to the USA, the car was shipped to the USA. The Air Force Captain enjoyed driving it around Denver, Colorado. Around this time, the car was painted white and the original leather interior was changed to black. Mr. J.C. Malone would finally keep the car an impressive 40 years until he sold the car in 2000 at the age of 80. The car had only 43.000 miles and was described as a ‘time-capsule-car’. The car was then owned by Mr. J. Heumann from San Francisco, California and later he sold to car to Mr. M. Vittoz from Lyon, France. In 2009 the car was exported to The Netherlands and then sold by Lukas Huni to the current collector in late 2012. In the current collection – one of the most important Dutch Ferrari collections – it has been well maintained This lovely 250 GT is in very nice condition with nice older paintwork with few blemishes and excellent original panel fit. Chrome is excellent. The interior feels very fresh with a high quality retrim. The engine bay is well detailed and as expected very original. In October 2022, a major service was done at Dutch Ferrari Specialists. The invoice totals Euro 10.500,-. Afterwards the car was driven in the Zoute Rally in Belgium. The car runs very well and is a pleasure to drive. The engine pulls strong and the gear change is very smooth. All numbers have been confirmed by Ferrari to be original and matching. The car is registered in Holland and has a most distinguished two-tone colour combination of ‘Grigio Platino’ (original colour) with an anthracite grey roof and a dark red leather interior. After 12 years in the current collection the car is ready for a new enthusiastic owner and begs to be driven. 1960 Ferrari 250 GT Very Superior Old Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

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.

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.

    Abarth, a brand dedicated to competition Founded in 1949 by Carlo Abarth, the Italian brand specialises in the preparation and construction of racing cars, particularly in the small-capacity categories. Abarth has made a name for itself on European racetracks thanks to constant technical innovation and a focus on performance and lightness. Its models, mainly based on Fiat underpinnings, won numerous titles in Grand Touring and Sport-Prototype championships, helping to establish the Scorpion's reputation in the world of motor sport. In the 1960s, Abarth dominated the 1000 cm³ category, a highly competitive segment in which manufacturers such as Simca and Porsche competed. The Abarth 1000 Bialbero, with its low weight and optimised engine, beat off its main rivals. The Targa Florio, 1000 km Nürburgring, Mugello and Sebring became the scene of fierce battles in this category. In GT and Sport events, Abarth 1000s, particularly in their ‘Bialbero’ and ‘SP’ forms, regularly won thanks to their agility in corners, their effective braking and their excellent roadholding. At the time, Abarth was renowned for its ability to produce extremely competitive cars with budgets well below those of its competitors. The ingenuity of Carlo Abarth and his engineers enabled them to make the most of Fiat engines, reworking them to achieve unexpected levels of performance. The Abarth 1000 Bialbero ‘Muso Lungo’: design and features The Abarth 1000 Bialbero has been developed to maximise competition performance in the sub-1300cc category. The model is based on a Type 129 tubular chassis designed to offer an optimum balance between rigidity and lightness. The engine, a 982cc in-line four-cylinder, is an evolution of the Fiat 600. Called Type 229 B, it has a double overhead camshaft (Bialbero) architecture and develops around 105 bhp at 8000 rpm. Fuel is supplied by two Weber 40 DCOE carburettors, while the compression ratio is 10:1. The engine is mated to a five-speed manual gearbox optimised for competition use. Particular attention has also been paid to aerodynamics. Early versions of the Bialbero 1000 were fitted with an aluminium nose. The latest models, including this one, have been fitted with a fibreglass nose, which is lighter and more efficient. The ‘Muso Lungo’ (Long nose) version improves stability at high speeds and optimises the distribution of airflow over the body. Suspension is independent at all four wheels, with superimposed wishbones at the front and an oscillating axle at the rear. Braking is provided by four discs, a rare feature on a car in this category at the time. The total weight of the vehicle was around 540 kg, offering an excellent power-to-weight ratio. The different versions of the Abarth 1000 Bialbero The Abarth 1000 Bialbero underwent several changes over the course of its production. Based on archive documents, there were six main series, each characterised by aerodynamic and structural differences 1ʳᵉ series (1960) : Fiat Abarth 1000 BA Record Monza with plexiglass fairing headlights (Zagato). 2ᵉ series (1960-1961) : Fiat Abarth 1000 BA Record Monza with codorni headlights (Zagato). 3ᵉ series (1961-1962) : Fiat Abarth 1000 BA GT ‘coda tonda’ (Beccaris). 4ᵉ series (1961-1962): Fiat Abarth 1000 BA GT ‘coda rialzata’ (Beccaris). 5ᵉ series (1963-1965): Fiat Abarth 1000 BA Muso Corto - Coda Lunga, made by Sibona & Basano (15 examples). 6ᵉ series (1964-1965): Fiat Abarth 1000 BA Muso Lungo - Coda Lunga, made by Sibona & Basano (15 examples), with fully opening front bonnet. Our car 129 0288 belongs to the 6ᵉ series, which represents the ultimate evolution of the model. This version, with a fully opening front bonnet, offered improved mechanical accessibility and optimised aerodynamics. 129 0288 was delivered in 1965 to Dimitri Mollof, exclusive Abarth importer in France and owner of Team Abarth France: Squadra Corse Abarth France. As soon as it arrived, it was entered in the European Grand Touring and Sports Car Championship. Driven by Jean Mazzanti, the official Abarth France driver, the car took an active part in the 1965 and 1966 seasons, contributing to Abarth's victory in the European GT Championship and the World Championship for marques in 1964, 1965, 1966 and 1967. Its involvement in competition included some famous events: 1000 km of Paris Freiburg Grand Prix Monza race Ronde du Ventoux Coupe du Salon Coupe de Paris Mont Dore ​Various rounds of the European GT and Sport Championships In 1967, the car continued to race, notably with Beaumont and Lemaitre. ​ From 1968, it was acquired by Jean-Marie Lemerle, who continued to race it until 1970. An enthusiastic driver and well-known figure in hill-climb racing, Lemerle replaced his 1000 Bialbero with another iconic Abarth, the 1000 SP, a model developed for the Sport-Prototypes category and was entered in the 1969 Le Mans 24 Hours, where it was driven by Maurizio Zanetti and Ugo Locatelli. The car then passed into the hands of Jacques Simonet, who raced it until 1977, before keeping it preciously in his collection for 50 years! A unique car of indisputable authenticity Of the 30 Abarths built by Carrozzeria Sibona & Basano, 15 Abarth 1000 Bialbero Long Nose were produced, but only 11 remain in museums and private collections. Of these 11, 3 were ‘Muso Corto’ cars retrofitted with the ‘long nose export’ option. This chassis #129 0288, the last of the series, is the only example still in its original condition, never invasively restored. When it was sold to its fourth owner in 2020, meticulous mechanical restoration work was undertaken, including rebuilding the engine, running gear and braking system, while preserving the authenticity of the bodywork and interior. An exceptional heritage Today, the Abarth 1000 Bialbero Long Nose Sibona & Basano embodies the excellence of Abarth design and engineering from the 1960s. Its racing history, unique condition and extensive history file make it an exceptional collector's item, testifying to Abarth's unique expertise in motorsport.​ 1965 Abarth 1000 Bialbero “Muso Lungo” Sibona & Basano Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Braking is provided by four discs, a rare feature on a car in this category at the time. The total weight of the vehicle was around 540 kg, offering an excellent power-to-weight ratio. The different versions of the Abarth 1000 Bialbero The Abarth 1000 Bialbero underwent several changes over the course of its production. Based on archive documents, there were six main series, each characterised by aerodynamic and structural differences 1ʳᵉ series (1960) : Fiat Abarth 1000 BA Record Monza with plexiglass fairing headlights (Zagato). 2ᵉ series (1960-1961) : Fiat Abarth 1000 BA Record Monza with codorni headlights (Zagato). 3ᵉ series (1961-1962) : Fiat Abarth 1000 BA GT ‘coda tonda’ (Beccaris). 4ᵉ series (1961-1962): Fiat Abarth 1000 BA GT ‘coda rialzata’ (Beccaris). 5ᵉ series (1963-1965): Fiat Abarth 1000 BA Muso Corto - Coda Lunga, made by Sibona & Basano (15 examples). 6ᵉ series (1964-1965): Fiat Abarth 1000 BA Muso Lungo - Coda Lunga, made by Sibona & Basano (15 examples), with fully opening front bonnet. Our car 129 0288 belongs to the 6ᵉ series, which represents the ultimate evolution of the model. This version, with a fully opening front bonnet, offered improved mechanical accessibility and optimised aerodynamics. 129 0288 was delivered in 1965 to Dimitri Mollof, exclusive Abarth importer in France and owner of Team Abarth France: Squadra Corse Abarth France. As soon as it arrived, it was entered in the European Grand Touring and Sports Car Championship. Driven by Jean Mazzanti, the official Abarth France driver, the car took an active part in the 1965 and 1966 seasons, contributing to Abarth's victory in the European GT Championship and the World Championship for marques in 1964, 1965, 1966 and 1967. Its involvement in competition included some famous events: 1000 km of Paris Freiburg Grand Prix Monza race Ronde du Ventoux Coupe du Salon Coupe de Paris Mont Dore Various rounds of the European GT and Sport Championships In 1967, the car continued to race, notably with Beaumont and Lemaitre. From 1968, it was acquired by Jean-Marie Lemerle, who continued to race it until 1970. An enthusiastic driver and well-known figure in hill-climb racing, Lemerle replaced his 1000 Bialbero with another iconic Abarth, the 1000 SP, a model developed for the Sport-Prototypes category and was entered in the 1969 Le Mans 24 Hours, where it was driven by Maurizio Zanetti and Ugo Locatelli. The car then passed into the hands of Jacques Simonet, who raced it until 1977, before keeping it preciously in his collection for 50 years! A unique car of indisputable authenticity Of the 30 Abarths built by Carrozzeria Sibona & Basano, 15 Abarth 1000 Bialbero Long Nose were produced, but only 11 remain in museums and private collections. Of these 11, 3 were ‘Muso Corto’ cars retrofitted with the ‘long nose export’ option. This chassis #129 0288, the last of the series, is the only example still in its original condition, never invasively restored. When it was sold to its fourth owner in 2020, meticulous mechanical restoration work was undertaken, including rebuilding the engine, running gear and braking system, while preserving the authenticity of the bodywork and interior. An exceptional heritage Today, the Abarth 1000 Bialbero Long Nose Sibona & Basano embodies the excellence of Abarth design and engineering from the 1960s. Its racing history, unique condition and extensive history file make it an exceptional collector's item, testifying to Abarth's unique expertise in motorsport.

The result was a luxurious V8 Convertible that would become one of the most successful passenger car series ever produced by Mercedes-Benz. Resplendent in rare English Red paired with a black hard top, soft top, and leather upholstery, this thoughtfully preserved R107 is a particularly desirable final-year example and unusual Canadian spec delivery. Like its Pagoda predecessor, the R107 cuts quite a striking, yet highly refined line, especially when paired with factory "bundt" style alloy wheels and a darker, contrasting hardtop. Both hard and soft tops are finished in black. The two-tone look complements the car nicely, and it looks particularly handsome in all configurations. Inside, thick, black beautifully mellowed leather retains a factory appearance, while the center console displays preserved wood veneer, ventilation controls, and correct Becker Mexico cassette deck. The trio of deeply hooded gauge pods is home to a central, metric speedometer. A recent 2024 inspection, service, and complete European bumper and headlight conversion ensures this collector grade SL is ready to provide a stylish open-air driving experience for its next owner as a strong contender for continued enjoyment and preservation. 1980 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Driver Source Fine Motorcars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1982 Ferrari 308 GTBi

    This Ferrari 308 GTBi, one of only 494 Coupés with fuel injection and two valve heads was delivered to its first owner on the 31st of May 1982 by the Garage AD Autodiffusion in Meyrin. The 308 in its elegant combination of white with a tan leather has had most probably only three owners by the time it was acquired by the vendor, a garage owner, and entered into his collection in 2017. The service booklet testifies the diligent maintenance the car has enjoyed, and the last cambelt change was completed in January 2020 at 66’068 kilometres. The Ferrari has now covered 68’000 kilometres and is in very good condition. Recently new brake discs to the front and rear, and a new set of Michelin TRX tyres were installed. The last veteran MOT was completed in April 2015. 1982 Ferrari 308 GTBi Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
