- 1958 Porsche 356A T2 Speedster
The Most “Iconic” 356 Matching numbers engine, transmission, and body panels Porsche Certificate of Authenticity Expertly concours-level restored Rudge wheels, Speedster Sport Bucket Seats Includes books, tool kit, jack, spare wheel/tire, boot cover, and side curtains Extensive photo documentation of restoration Classic original color combination of Silver Metallic over Black Leatherette interior The final year of 356 Speedster production Created and built from the vision of America’s most prolific importers Max Hoffman, the Porsche 356 Speedster filled a void that the clever automotive industrialist thought was lacking: a lightweight, few frills, open top sports car. Infallible driving characteristics of Porsche’s early roadster along with its fantastic styling drove its massive surge in popularity, rooting Porsche’s foothold in the United States. His intuition, again like many other times, proved to be correct and the Speedster was a resounding success. Finding iconic owners such as Steve McQueen saw the Speedster’s popularity shoot into the stratosphere, and today these low-slung 356s are some of the most sought-after variants built by Porsche. This 1958 Porsche 356A T2 Speedster was one of the last Speedsters to roll off the Porsche’s production line as 1958 was the final year of production. According to its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, it was completed on January 31st, 1958, optioned in Silver Metallic paint with Black Leatherette seats. The COA also lists the engine and transmission number, 68562 and 18232 respectively, which are numbers matching. Standard equipment included a 60 horsepower 1,582cc OHV air-cooled flat four engine with dual Zenith carburetors, a 4-speed 644 manual transmission, independent front suspension with laminated torsion bars, parallel trailing arms, tubular shock absorbers, independent rear swing axles with torsion bars and tubular shock absorbers, and four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes. When restorers look for vehicles ideal for a complete restoration, they often look for original tubs, rust and damage free as much as possible, matching panels, and as many original parts that can be saved to add to the authenticity. This Speedster fit that bill perfectly. Stored in a garage for some time in New Mexico, the little roadster sat undisturbed for many years. Upon being rolled out from its New Mexico hideout, the body looked exceptional with zero rust anywhere due to the arid climate. Photographs in the restoration book show its original condition upon being found. It was then decided to restore the 356 Speedster back to its original condition when it was new. During the restoration the Speedster was completely stripped down to the bare metal. Pictures indicate that all panels were brought down to the factory metal to ensure no details were missed. Confirming suspicions, there was no rust anywhere on the body panels due to being garaged in New Mexico. The 356 then went through multiple stages that would yield a concours-level paint finish in its original Certificate of Authenticity-confirmed Silver Metallic paint color. Afterwards, the original windshield was polished and reinstalled into the car. All componentry was rebuilt and restored as necessary, including suspension, accessories, chrome details, wiring harness, gauges, and more. Using only OEM parts down to the last nut and bolt, this 356 Speedster is as close to new in 1958 that you can get. Critical components such as the matching numbers 1.6-liter flat four engine and 4-speed manual transmission were disassembled, inventoried, and completely rebuilt to factory specifications. Photographs indicate the rebuild process of the engine and transmission including the restoration of all other components. The Speedster’s interior, Black Leatherette, was completely restored to factory specifications. Oatmeal Germany square weave carpets were installed for an authentic restoration. Photographs indicate the installation process. After completion of the restoration, this 1958 Porsche 356A T2 Speedster presents wonderfully. With its matching numbers engine and transmission confirmed by the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, matching body panels throughout, and expertly restored back to its original specification of 1958 per the COA, this Speedster is ready to drive another half century. Upon arrival at Canepa, every collector vehicle for sale is put through and extensive and diligent process called the “Canepa Difference”. This includes a major and comprehensive mechanical inspection where all systems are checked and serviced as necessary.

- 1972 Alfa Romeo Montreal 1
This rare Alfa Romeo Coupé was delivered in Switzerland and was first registered on 25 October 1972. The front seats were probably reupholstered in black goatskin in the early 1980s and the Montreal was painted in ‘marrone metallizzato’. In October 1986, the Alfa was deregistered and integrated into the collection of a garage owner. A few years later, he decided to preserve the coupé with around 106,000 kilometres on the clock and park it in his garage. Finally, in 2020, the Montreal was freed from the garage and carefully put back into operation - all the fluids were replaced, the brake lines were renewed, the petrol tank was flushed and refilled, and the engine was fitted with new spark plugs. Unfortunately, time had left traces of rust on the bodywork and it was decided to restore it. In the course of this work, the original colour was revealed and the Montreal was given a complete paint job in AR 601 - Orange. The Alfa Romeo now presents itself in new splendour, the interior shows signs of wear commensurate with its age and the engine and gearbox are in perfect working order.

- 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing
In many senses, while the Lamborghini Miura was the first automobile to be referred to by name as a “supercar,” the actual title of “first supercar” status belongs to the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL. Like the Ferrari F40 and its like, it captured the aura of being exactly what it was: racing car technology, loosely disguised for the street. Its specifications in 1954 were as advanced then as the carbon fiber exoskeletons of today. Power came from an overhead-cam six-cylinder engine, mounted at an angle within the engine compartment and equipped with Boch mechanical fuel injection and dry-sump lubrication. It was wrapped in steel and alloy bodywork, designed for maximum streamlined efficiency, and wrapped around a tubular frame. The latter necessitated the car’s most distinguishing feature, doors hinged at the roof, which when opened created the famed “gullwing” appearance. Every trip in a 300 SL would be a unique experience, including that of getting into the car: mastering the art of first straddling the door sill, swinging one’s right hip in, and then drawing in the rest of the body and pulling down the door. Once fitted, a 300 SL suits its owner like a tailored tuxedo; the steering wheel is at an optimal position even for stockier drivers, and the gearshift falls, as they say, readily at hand. It is sleek, cozy, and evocative today. In the world of the 1950s, it was a spaceship. Automotive press of the time agreed. “For a passenger who has not traveled in the 300 SL before, the effect is electrifying,” noted Autocar. “The occupant receives at first a mild pressing back into the seat and then, as the power comes in between 3,500 rpm and 4,000 rpm, he feels as though he is being rocketed through space. Up to 70 mph is available in second gear, and then comes a quick movement into third. The rev counter needle drops back for a second or two and, again at 4,000 rpm, the effect of being urged forward by some irresistible force is felt. The acceleration is truly remarkable…Press the accelerator well down even at over 100 mph in top gear and, again, there is the feeling of being on the end of a rope that is being pulled hard from in front of the car. The way the 300 SL does it all with so little fuss is almost uncanny.” CHASSIS NUMBER 198.040.5500681 The 300 SL Gullwing offered here was originally ordered from the Mercedes-Benz distributors in New York City, finished in Fire Engine Red (DB 534) over Black leather (953) interior, with the data card noting high-gloss paint as well as special upholstery. Its earliest known owner, as recorded in the Gull Wing Group Registry, was Theodore Soltis of Wilmington, Delaware. Subsequent owners are recorded as Henry K. Mearig, Jr., of Manheim, Pennsylvania, later a noted Saab and Volvo dealer in Lancaster and a regular participant in Quaker State hillclimbs during this era, as well as several enthusiasts in New York State. Afterward the car briefly returned to its homeland when purchased by Ehlich Renhard of Düsseldorf; information in the file indicates that it was first restored in Mr. Renhard’s ownership. In 1998 the 300 SL was purchased by the prolific sports car collector Gene Ponder of Marshall, Texas. Mr. Ponder retained the Gullwing in his noted collection for over eight years, before selling it in 2007 to well-known vintage Mercedes-Benz enthusiast Thomas Taffet of California. It then transacted to the current owner, who has maintained it in the Dare to Dream Collection for the last decade. During its time in the Dare to Dream Collection, the 300 SL has been cosmetically restored by the famed 300 SL specialists Rudi & Co. to the same color scheme of the car in the renowned Ralph Lauren collection, Silver Gray (DB 180) with a pigskin-grain brown leather interior. Additional mechanical services have been undertaken as necessary, with invoices for the latter included in the history file. The car is still fitted with its numbers-matching chassis and engine, as noted on the data card, as well as its numbers-matching body and front and rear axles; its gearbox is a replacement unit numbered 003165. It is presently equipped with reproduction Rudge wheels and a set of fitted luggage—two of the most desirable and sought-after options for a 300 SL—as well as a set of belly pans. It is an ideally specified example of that modern rocket, the father of the supercars to come. 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Like the Ferrari F40 and its like, it captured the aura of being exactly what it was: racing car technology, loosely disguised for the street. Its specifications in 1954 were as advanced then as the carbon fiber exoskeletons of today. Power came from an overhead-cam six-cylinder engine, mounted at an angle within the engine compartment and equipped with Boch mechanical fuel injection and dry-sump lubrication. It was wrapped in steel and alloy bodywork, designed for maximum streamlined efficiency, and wrapped around a tubular frame. The latter necessitated the car’s most distinguishing feature, doors hinged at the roof, which when opened created the famed “gullwing” appearance.

- 1966-porsche-906-1
Although incorporating certain lessons learned from the preceding 904 GTS programme, Porsche’s new-for-1966 906 model–officially designated the Carrera 6–was notably divergent in its mechanical composition. Whereas the 904 employed a ladder chassis with a bonded fibreglass body, the 906 used a more conventional multi-tubular frame, clothed in unstressed fibreglass of nominal thickness to minimise weight. Some 65 chassis would be constructed, of which 52 were fitted with 2-litre, six-cylinder carburettor engines, nine equipped with fuel injection and four with experimental 2.2-litre eight-cylinder motors. Significantly, in customer specification, the new car offered a weight reduction of some 200 pounds relative to the outgoing 904. Competition success was immediate, with a 2-litre class win–and sixth overall–achieved on debut in the Daytona 24 Hours, with further class wins forthcoming in the Sebring 12 Hours and at the Monza, Spa, Nürburgring and Paris 1,000 Kilometre races. If, inexplicably, there was any doubt as to the new car’s abilities, then outright victories at the Targa Florio and Circuito del Mugello–not to mention fourth overall and the almost inevitable class win at Le Mans–surely put these to rest. Indeed over the next two seasons, until its replacement with the 910, the 906 became arguably the most accomplished and versatile of all two-litre Sports Racing cars. The car offered here, chassis 906-115, was completed at Zuffenhausen on 9 March 1966, to the order of keen Italian amateur racer and hillclimber Ermanno Spazzapan. Invariably competing under the pseudonym of “Mann”, Spazzapan enjoyed a strong affiliation with Porsche, having previously campaigned both a 356B 2000GS and a 356 Carrera Abarth GTL in Italian domestic events in 1964 and 1965. However, his purchase of 906-115 in the Spring of 1966 represented not only his first known experience of a Sports Prototype, but also a significant step up in terms of performance. As with other customer specification 906s, 906-115 was fitted with a six-cylinder Type-901/20 engine, which employed a sand-cast magnesium elektron crankcase, forged steel crankshaft, titanium connecting rods, forged alloy pistons and dry-sump lubrication. A compression ratio of 10.3:1 afforded a power output of some 210 horsepower at 8,000 rpm, while a five-speed Type-906/1 gearbox transmitted this to the road. “Mann” made his debut in 906-115 at the Stallavena-Boscochiesanuova hillclimb on 17 April, in which he finished second in class in the over-2000cc Sports Racing car class. The remainder of the season encompassed some nine further events–eight hillclimbs and one race–and the pair became a regular sight on the Italian hillclimb scene. The Antignano-Monte Burrone round in June represented the season’s highlight, with an outright win, while the event from Spazzapan’s hometown of Vittorio Veneto, in Treviso, to Consoglio yielded a noteworthy second place overall. Third place finishes were also achieved at Cividale-Castelmonte, Bolzano-Mendola and at the Coppa Alpe del Nevegal, while the season’s sole circuit-based event saw the pair finish second in class at the Coppa Agip at Vallelunga, behind the victorious sister 906 of “Noris”. However, after only a single season of ownership, Spazzapan opted to sell 906-115 to his fellow countryman Ennio Bonomelli in early 1967. The latter would later emerge as something of a Porsche specialist, driving a variety of models including a 908/03, 910 and 911 RSR, and winning the 1968 Italian GT Championship in a 911S, yet it appears that he drove 906-115 on only three occasions, each of which were hillclimbs. Instead, the car was primarily entrusted to Antonio Zadra–occasionally known by his pseudonym of “Khandaru”–and Giuseppe Dalla Torre. The car’s race debut under its new ownership came in a 20-lap Unlimited Sports Car race at Innsbruck in May 1967, although regrettably its finishing position is unknown. Next, however, was the altogether more serious prospect of the 500 kilometres of Mugello; then a round of the World Sportscar Championship. Held on the daunting 66.2 kilometre road circuit, the event attracted no less than 111 entries, including two factory-entered Porsche 910s for Schütz/ Mitter and Neerpasch/ Stommelen, two Scuderia Ferrari 206 Dino Competiziones for Scarfiotti/ Vaccarella and Klass/ Williams, and three Autodelta Alfa Romeo T33s. At the conclusion of the gruelling 8-lap, near four-and-a-half hour race, Schütz and Mitter prevailed–with their 910-mounted teammates second and the Prototype-class Porsche 911R of Elford and van Lennep third. However, “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre drove superbly to finish tenth overall and third in class; beaten only in their category by the similar 906s of Cella/ Biscaldi and Nicodemi/ Facetti. A little over a month later, “Khandaru” drove the car to a fine 14th overall and seventh in class at the Ollon-Villars hillclimb, while the season rounded off at Aspern, in Austria, in early October. There, a high quality entry for the 40-lap Sports Car race included the likes of Dieter Quester and Peter Schetty–in works BMW and Abarth respectively–but “Khandaru” and 906-115 acquitted themselves admirably, finishing ninth overall and third in the 2-litre class. Intriguingly, the 1968 season was scheduled to start with an entry into the Nürburgring 1,000 kilometres–once again with “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre driving–but evidently 906-115 failed to appear. However, in late-June, it contested the Coppa Gallenga at Vallelunga, where “Khandaru” finished a fine third overall and first in class behind the Ferrari 206S Dino of Ferdiando Latteri and the Porsche 910 of Antonio Nicodemi. Disappointingly, a return to the Circuito del Mugello in late July proved frustrating for the car’s customary pilots, ending as it did in an early retirement. Arguably 906-115’s finest hour came in the Imola 500 kilometres, held at the scenic Emilia-Romagna circuit in September 1968. A fine race entry included three privately-entered Porsche 910s–one of which was to be shared by factory driver Vic Elford–and three Autodelta Alfa Romeo T33/2s driven by the all-star team of Vaccarella/Zeccoli, Giunti/Galli and Casoni/Dini. Once again “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre were paired in the car; both drivers and car excelling to finish a fine fourth overall–and first in class–behind the three Alfas. The car’s final contemporary race season concluded in Austria with races on consecutive weekends in Aspern and Innsbruck, in early October. Ranged against some of the most respected Sportscar drivers of the day–including Merzario, Marko and Hezemans–Zadra finished a respectable ninth, and third in class, in Aspern and seventh–fifth in the 2-litre class–in Innsbruck. The rapidly changing Sports Prototype landscape of the late 1960s–and in particular the increasingly important role of aerodynamics–rendered both the 906 and many of its Group 4 contemporaries increasingly uncompetitive in International Sportscar racing. However, the 1970s saw burgeoning interest in newly-designated “Historic” racing cars and, against this backdrop, 906-115 was subsequently located and purchased by Bergamo-based enthusiast and broker Corrado Cupellini. Having retained ownership for several years, Cupellini sold 906-115 to German Porsche luminary Bernd Becker in 1977; the car representing a fitting stablemate for the latter’s ex-Ben Pon 910. Becker would retain 906-115 for almost a quarter of a century, regularly racing the car throughout Europe and, on occasions, in South Africa, until its sale to German-based brokers PS Automobile in 2001. In their custody, 906-115 was subjected to a comprehensive rebuild; the retention of its original GRP panels, engine and gearbox all being noted at this time. Duly completed and returned to its original colour of Grand Prix White, 906-115 reappeared in the 2002 Tour Auto, before being sold to Frenchman Alain Salat in 2004. In his custody, the car contested the Tour Auto again, prior to its acquisition by an anonymous French collector in 2007, and subsequent purchase by Swiss-based collector Carlo Perego in 2014. The latter retained the car for some seven years, before selling it to the most recent previous owner in 2020. In his custody, 906-115 has been fastidiously maintained by marque experts Road Scholars of Durham, NC, at a cost of over $60,000. This has included–but is not restricted to–rebuilds of the carburettors and steering rack, the replacement of the rear crankshaft oil seal, clutch and front suspension ball joints, and the performance of general engine calibration work. Remarkably, in September 2020, the car joined 906-109, 906-110 and 906-158 for a memorable 300-mile road trip between Vail and Aspen, Colorado; the dramatic scenery of the Rockies providing an appropriately Alpine context in which to celebrate 906-115’s formative years. With the current owner, the car’s original windscreen was replaced due to a crack, but has been retained for safe keeping. Highly accomplished, reassuringly uncomplicated and commendably practical, the Porsche 906 remains one of the greatest of all competitive all-rounders–not to mention perhaps the supreme giant-killer. Furthermore, its sheer versatility renders it ideally suited to–and highly eligible for–some of the world’s greatest historic events. In the case of 906-115, these attributes are further supplemented by its fascinating competition history and truly extraordinary originality. Indeed, the latter is confirmed by the retention of both its original engine and gearbox–serial numbers 906-113 and 906-110 respectively–as at the time of cataloguing, despite the passage of almost six decades, and a fascinatingly varied competition career. 1966 Porsche 906 RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Held on the daunting 66.2 kilometre road circuit, the event attracted no less than 111 entries, including two factory-entered Porsche 910s for Schütz/ Mitter and Neerpasch/ Stommelen, two Scuderia Ferrari 206 Dino Competiziones for Scarfiotti/ Vaccarella and Klass/ Williams, and three Autodelta Alfa Romeo T33s. At the conclusion of the gruelling 8-lap, near four-and-a-half hour race, Schütz and Mitter prevailed–with their 910-mounted teammates second and the Prototype-class Porsche 911R of Elford and van Lennep third. However, “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre drove superbly to finish tenth overall and third in class; beaten only in their category by the similar 906s of Cella/ Biscaldi and Nicodemi/ Facetti. A little over a month later, “Khandaru” drove the car to a fine 14th overall and seventh in class at the Ollon-Villars hillclimb, while the season rounded off at Aspern, in Austria, in early October. There, a high quality entry for the 40-lap Sports Car race included the likes of Dieter Quester and Peter Schetty–in works BMW and Abarth respectively–but “Khandaru” and 906-115 acquitted themselves admirably, finishing ninth overall and third in the 2-litre class. Intriguingly, the 1968 season was scheduled to start with an entry into the Nürburgring 1,000 kilometres–once again with “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre driving–but evidently 906-115 failed to appear. However, in late-June, it contested the Coppa Gallenga at Vallelunga, where “Khandaru” finished a fine third overall and first in class behind the Ferrari 206S Dino of Ferdiando Latteri and the Porsche 910 of Antonio Nicodemi. Disappointingly, a return to the Circuito del Mugello in late July proved frustrating for the car’s customary pilots, ending as it did in an early retirement. Arguably 906-115’s finest hour came in the Imola 500 kilometres, held at the scenic Emilia-Romagna circuit in September 1968. A fine race entry included three privately-entered Porsche 910s–one of which was to be shared by factory driver Vic Elford–and three Autodelta Alfa Romeo T33/2s driven by the all-star team of Vaccarella/Zeccoli, Giunti/Galli and Casoni/Dini. Once again “Khandaru” and Dalla Torre were paired in the car; both drivers and car excelling to finish a fine fourth overall–and first in class–behind the three Alfas. The car’s final contemporary race season concluded in Austria with races on consecutive weekends in Aspern and Innsbruck, in early October. Ranged against some of the most respected Sportscar drivers of the day–including Merzario, Marko and Hezemans–Zadra finished a respectable ninth, and third in class, in Aspern and seventh–fifth in the 2-litre class–in Innsbruck. The rapidly changing Sports Prototype landscape of the late 1960s–and in particular the increasingly important role of aerodynamics–rendered both the 906 and many of its Group 4 contemporaries increasingly uncompetitive in International Sportscar racing. However, the 1970s saw burgeoning interest in newly-designated “Historic” racing cars and, against this backdrop, 906-115 was subsequently located and purchased by Bergamo-based enthusiast and broker Corrado Cupellini. Having retained ownership for several years, Cupellini sold 906-115 to German Porsche luminary Bernd Becker in 1977; the car representing a fitting stablemate for the latter’s ex-Ben Pon 910. Becker would retain 906-115 for almost a quarter of a century, regularly racing the car throughout Europe and, on occasions, in South Africa, until its sale to German-based brokers PS Automobile in 2001. In their custody, 906-115 was subjected to a comprehensive rebuild; the retention of its original GRP panels, engine and gearbox all being noted at this time. Duly completed and returned to its original colour of Grand Prix White, 906-115 reappeared in the 2002 Tour Auto, before being sold to Frenchman Alain Salat in 2004. In his custody, the car contested the Tour Auto again, prior to its acquisition by an anonymous French collector in 2007, and subsequent purchase by Swiss-based collector Carlo Perego in 2014. The latter retained the car for some seven years, before selling it to the most recent previous owner in 2020. In his custody, 906-115 has been fastidiously maintained by marque experts Road Scholars of Durham, NC, at a cost of over $60,000. This has included–but is not restricted to–rebuilds of the carburettors and steering rack, the replacement of the rear crankshaft oil seal, clutch and front suspension ball joints, and the performance of general engine calibration work. Remarkably, in September 2020, the car joined 906-109, 906-110 and 906-158 for a memorable 300-mile road trip between Vail and Aspen, Colorado; the dramatic scenery of the Rockies providing an appropriately Alpine context in which to celebrate 906-115’s formative years. With the current owner, the car’s original windscreen was replaced due to a crack, but has been retained for safe keeping. Highly accomplished, reassuringly uncomplicated and commendably practical, the Porsche 906 remains one of the greatest of all competitive all-rounders–not to mention perhaps the supreme giant-killer. Furthermore, its sheer versatility renders it ideally suited to–and highly eligible for–some of the world’s greatest historic events. In the case of 906-115, these attributes are further supplemented by its fascinating competition history and truly extraordinary originality. Indeed, the latter is confirmed by the retention of both its original engine and gearbox–serial numbers 906-113 and 906-110 respectively–as at the time of cataloguing, despite the passage of almost six decades, and a fascinatingly varied competition career.

Few sports cars have proven as versatile as Porsche's timeless 911, a model that has proven itself capable of being a true grand tourer as well as a rally and circuit car over the past 50 years. A "modern classic" if ever there was one, the 911 was unveiled at the 1963 Frankfurt Motor Show as the 901, but shortly after it went into production in 1964 became the 911, following a complaint from Peugeot, which had filed a complaint about the use of the central zero for its models. The rear overhung engine architecture of its 356 predecessor was retained, but the 911 used a monocoque structure for its construction and abandoned the Volkswagen-derived suspension of the 356 in favor of a more modern strut and trailing arm McPherson system. In its first incarnation, Porsche's 1991cc air-cooled, single overhead cam flat six developed 130 bhp. When Porsche began to look at ways to improve its successful 356 model in the mid-1950s, it quickly became apparent that a simple evolution would not be enough. The potential changes to the 356 were such that an entirely new model had to be developed. The new Porsche would offer more space for occupants, as well as sufficient storage space for a set of golf clubs. The performance level of the new model was to match that of the 356 Carrera 2, while retaining the refinement of the 'normal' 356. The basic platform layout was to be retained, as well as the familiar Porsche silhouette. Ferdinand, Ferry Porsche's eldest son, was responsible for the design, developing the chassis and bodywork, while his cousin, Ferdinand Piëch, developed the air-cooled flat-six. The first advertisements for the new car stated: "... to design and build - almost without compromise - the ultimate car for getting from one point to another in the fastest, safest and most enjoyable way possible." The 911 is new in every detail, but it is undeniably a Porsche. Thanks to Ferdinand Piëch, the 901/911 was designed as a racing car from the beginning. This is particularly clear in the engine design with its dry sump and overflow Solex carburetors, both of which were developed in racing to make the engine run more smoothly. The overflow carburetors were unfortunately to prove unsuitable for road use. As early as 1964, the factory had equipped ten 904s with the six-cylinder 911 and named them 906s (which is the prefix of their chassis number). This led to confusion with the 906 Carrera 6, so the name 904/6 was preferred. These 904-906s were used to test the 901 engine for competition use in the 911. As it seemed to work well, it was decided not to wait any longer and to enter a 904/6 in the 49th Targa Florio. The race was won by a Ferrari 275 P2. The Italians did well to savour this victory, because the next five editions were won by Porsches. Second place went to an eight-cylinder Spyder 904 Kanguruh followed by a 904/6 (Maglioli-Linge) with a 901 engine. This was the first race appearance of the six-cylinder 911 in a version boosted to 210 hp at 8,000 rpm (901/20 engine). During the course of the year, this engine proved to be remarkably reliable. The green light was therefore given for the creation of a sports version of the 901 for the 911 S. The 911, a sedan? At the time of the 911's racing debut, it was still possible to enter identical cars powered by different engines in different classes. Of course, this required discussions with FIA officials. Fortunately, Porsche could count on the diplomatic skills of Huschke von Hanstein to obtain homologation for the 11 and 911L in Group 2 (touring cars) and the 911T and 911S in Grand Touring (Group 3). Even a lightweight, unbroken 911T like a 911S is approved as a GT car with a dry weight of 923 kg. The reason for the FIA's tolerance is that the first competition 911s were very similar to the production models, at least until the A-series. The only changes were in ride height and torsion bar settings. The gearboxes could be fitted with gears suitable for all kinds of competition. From the point of view of the regulations, Porsche had an unquestionable advantage because the FIA considered the 911 to be a sedan, which even allowed it to take part in certain races where sports cars were forbidden. The commercial benefits were nil as the public considered the victories to be unfair, as the 911s were obviously GTs. The only drawback was that in Group 2 (Touring) and Group 3 (GT), the 911s could not benefit from any increase in engine capacity above 2 liter. Of course, the 911s entered in the Prototype Class could have engines with increased displacement within the limits of the regulations. If the increase in displacement was forbidden, it was of course possible to increase the power. For this purpose, Porsche had obtained the approval of "kits". For the 911 and 911L, they made it possible to easily reach 160 hp. The engine was then called "Rallye" or 2000R. For the 911T and S, the factory supplied an engine identical to that of the Carrera 6, but without the dual ignition. An even more advanced version (with titanium connecting rods) was available, which was reserved for the 911T racing cars. Rallye de Monte-Carlo 1965 : This year, to everyone's surprise, a 904 finished second overall in the 34th Monte Carlo Rally. It was driven by Böhringer (a private hotelier and former Mercedes racer) with Wütherich (James Dean's mechanic) as co-driver. The winning car was a Mini Cooper, much better suited to the terrible winter conditions of 1965, and no one foresaw that Porsches would ever beat the Mini. Just as no one noticed the participation of a 911, the fiftieth 911 to come off the Zuffenhausen production line, whose baptism of fire in competition was the first of its kind. Driven by the extremely experienced factory driver Herbert Linge and engineer Peter Falk, it finished an astonishing fifth overall and second in class. Season 1965: Porsche's participation in the other rounds of the European Rally Championship was a failure. It must be said that Huschke von Hanstein did not consider this to be an activity worthy of great financial effort. Even when rallying becomes a Porsche specialty, it will be with derisory means compared to those devoted to prototypes. It is true that the publicity given to Porsche by the results of the 917 prototypes will somewhat overshadow the rally victories of the small 911. It took all the persuasion and talent of Vic Elford to get Huschke von Hanstein to admit that this was an opportunity not to be missed. 24 Hours of Le Mans 1966: Another historic event that goes unnoticed: the first participation of a 911 at Le Mans. It was a virtually original 911S, 1965 model (chassis 303.355), which was entered in the GT category (under number 35) by Jacques Dewez. Driven by Kerguen and "Franc" (Dewez), it finished fourteenth in the distance classification and twelfth in the performance index at an average speed of 159 km/h. At the end of the race, it was put up for sale and left as it had arrived, by road. Our car: Purchased by the current owner in 2019, our car already has many years of Historic racing under its belt. It will therefore be regularly entered in Peter Auto races and rallies. The car will receive comprehensive and regular maintenance, as evidenced by its invoice records. Major work (engine and gearbox) has been carried out by Berto Moteurs and, since 2021, by Mecacomponent, which provides support. With its valid PTH, it is the ideal car for numerous historic races or rallies and outings with friends. This is an opportunity to acquire a superb 1965 Porsche 911 racing car! Eligible for the Tour Auto, Le Mans Classic and, above all, the highly competitive 2.0L Cup one-make championship. 1965 Porsche 911 2L FIA Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

This particular example, Chassis # 818650001015, is a Series 1 Sport 1.3S model with the (818.303) 1,298 cc V4 engine. While the early history of this car has been lost to time, we know that it was the subject of a sympathetic restoration by Lancia expert Franco de Piero in Italy during the 1990’s. Later, in 2012 it was sold via a West Coast USA dealer to a collector from Brazil/France. Shortly after it was the subject of a comprehensive restoration completed circa 2014 by Corrado Patella’s Autofficina Omega in Vicenza, Italy with the cosmetic portion completed by Carrozzeria Graselli. This more recent restoration was performed from the ground up with no expenses spared, leaving the Lancia in stunning, factory-fresh condition. The restoration reportedly took 8 months to complete at a cost of nearly 60,000 Euros. Shortly after it was sold again in 2016, then again in 2019 to its most recent collector-owner who has driven it just over 4,000 miles. All while consistently servicing it and storing it properly. During the 2014 restoration the 1.3S V4 engine and (the upgraded 5-speed) transmission were rebuilt, with the valves, studs, pistons, rods, and every other mechanical component between steering, braking, suspension etc… also tended to during the restoration. The interior was also addressed and was refinished to a very high standard. All of the gauges and switchgear are in correct working order. The only changes were the installation of Zagato Sport-style seats and a period-appropriate aftermarket steering wheel.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright This particular example, Chassis # 818650001015, is a Series 1 Sport 1.3S model with the (818.303) 1,298 cc V4 engine. While the early history of this car has been lost to time, we know that it was the subject of a sympathetic restoration by Lancia expert Franco de Piero in Italy during the 1990’s. Later, in 2012 it was sold via a West Coast USA dealer to a collector from Brazil/France. Shortly after it was the subject of a comprehensive restoration completed circa 2014 by Corrado Patella’s Autofficina Omega in Vicenza, Italy with the cosmetic portion completed by Carrozzeria Graselli. This more recent restoration was performed from the ground up with no expenses spared, leaving the Lancia in stunning, factory-fresh condition. The restoration reportedly took 8 months to complete at a cost of nearly 60,000 Euros. Shortly after it was sold again in 2016, then again in 2019 to its most recent collector-owner who has driven it just over 4,000 miles. All while consistently servicing it and storing it properly. During the 2014 restoration the 1.3S V4 engine and (the upgraded 5-speed) transmission were rebuilt, with the valves, studs, pistons, rods, and every other mechanical component between steering, braking, suspension etc… also tended to during the restoration. The interior was also addressed and was refinished to a very high standard. All of the gauges and switchgear are in correct working order. The only changes were the installation of Zagato Sport-style seats and a period-appropriate aftermarket steering wheel. The black headliner is in great condition as well, and the dash is free of cracks or damage and was refinished in black rather than wood grain. The exterior has been refinished in the same color this car reportedly left the factorywearings- Rosso San Siro.

- 1972-ac-cobra-289-evocation-by-hawk
Following its creation in 1961, the AC Cobra quickly developed a large following due to its signature look, V8 power and soundtrack and racetrack success. This has only grown in the six decades since, however their rarity and rising value has meant that fewer are seen on the road. In an effort to allow fans of the original to experience such a special piece of automotive history, several companies began to build recreations of the car using a similar chassis and drivetrain to the original. These cars have become sought after due to offering many of the thrills of the 60s original but at a lower entry point to the market. Hawk, a British company have gained a trusted reputation for building accurate and reliable recreations to the highest standard and for a variety of uses from FIA compliant race cars to the roadgoing example seen here. The AC Cobra 289 Evocation by Hawk offered at Autostorico is a 1972 historic registered example.

- 1965 Jaguar E-Type Series 1
Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Roadster Series 1 First registration 01.1965 FIVA Identity Card Swiss road registration with veteran entry The swinging sixties were only just beginning to gain momentum when Jaguar made a brilliant design statement at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1961, the impact of which would go beyond that of an iconic new sports car. Because with its sensually charged shapes and bold proportions – eternally long hood, short rear – the new Jaguar E-Type shaped a new era. The design of the Jaguar E-Type came from Malcolm Sayers – the special appeal lay in the combination of charisma and driving performance. This Jaguar was intended to replace the D-Type used in racing, but was modified for the road after its retirement from motorsport. In terms of performance, the E-Type competed with sports cars in the highest performance class, but these were twice as expensive. This Jaguar E-Type with 4.2-litre is already the advanced version after the 3.8-litre and therefore has the fully synchronized 4-speed gearbox. The visual features of the Series 1 make this E-Type the most desirable collector’s item and its delicate elegance is unfortunately no longer matched by the later models. A few years ago, this E-Type 4.2 OTS was completely dismantled and restored. A detailed photo documentation documents the corresponding work. The car has a FIVA Identity Card, Swiss road registration and is veteran-approved. We are offering this beautiful, sporty and passionate roadster in top-maintained and wonderful collector’s condition. 1965 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 Lutziger Classic Cars AG If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1971 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona Competition
The arrival of the V12 flagship 365 GTB/4 “Daytona” stunned patrons of the 1968 Paris Auto Show. Unofficially named the Daytona by the press, commemorating the recent 1-2-3 finish by Ferrari at 24 hours of Daytona, the media name rightfully conveyed the inspirational Ferrari win, and cemented their brand as a world leader. The Daytona featured a landmark Pininfarina body design, capturing a crisp, modern look with reverence to classic GT cars of the past. Given the mid-engine surge from Lamborghini and other sports car manufacturers, the Daytona might have been considered dated, but performance figures obliterated any doubts in 1971 when Dan Gurney and Brock Yates won the rigorous Cannonball Run in their Daytona at an average speed of 80.1 mph across 3,000 miles of America. Technical specifications included a 4.4 liter quad cam Colombo V12 engine producing over 350 hp and rear-mounted 5-speed transaxle, delivering optimal weight distribution. With independent suspension, disc brakes at all four corners and superb weight balance, the Daytona was extremely fast (174mph top speed) and quick (0-60 in 5.3 sec). Just 1284 Daytonas were produced before yielding to the mid-engine Berlinetta Boxer. And while press and public awareness was centered around the premier road car performance, after 500 units had been produced, FIA homologation for International Group 4 Special Grand Touring allowed Ferrari to prepare a limited number of Competizione versions for customer use. This series included fabricating an all-alloy body similar to the thin alloy units prepared for the 1969 Le Mans 24 Hours. The factory cars also included a roll cage, wider rear tires, flared fender, front fender stabilizer blades (which improved high-speed front-end aerodynamics), side exit exhaust, and a cold airbox to aid air flow to the Weber carburetors. By 1972 the cars were competing to a high level of success, particularly with privateers through the 1970s adding several subsequent modifications and improvements to these specialized cars. This uniquely prepared competition build was originally constructed as a factory road car finished in white with black interior. The car was delivered new to an Italian client in 1971. Later sold to Japan, the car was imported to England in 2004 where the owner at that time embarked on a detailed and documented construction to Series 1 competition Group 4 specifications. During this construction, Series 1 modifications began by carefully removing the factory body shell and installing an FIA roll cage. Expert fabricator Steve MacFarlane fabricated a stunning 1.2 mm thickness alloy body enveloping the factory per original Competizione specifications. The wheel openings were flared to allow the correctly sized front and rear magnesium wheel and tire combination. The headlight configuration was also fabricated to competition standards with correct Plexiglas covers. Plexiglas sliding side windows and a plexiglass rear window were also installed per original specifications. A competition outside fuel filler cap was configured to the rear, directly feeding a large capacity FIA fuel cell located in the trunk of the car. The engine was rebuilt with high compression pistons and standard camshaft specifications and updated with Roelofs competition exhaust manifolds. The Weber carburetors were fitted with competition inlet trumpets and a hand formed cold air intake plenum positioned above the radiator. Tim Adams Racing Engines dyno tested the engine. The resulting power makes for a very exciting car on the track, while remaining very tractable for road use. After completion of the initial build, the car was shipped to Portugal where it was race-prepared by Lorenzini Autosports of Lisbon and granted FIA HTP. The car was track tested at Estoril before being stored away with less than 3 hours logged on the motor. This Daytona was then further updated including fresh red paint with racing livery, and engine upgrades. At this time, larger rear fender flares were added as well as induction cowl venting, updating the car to reflect some of the best attributes of the second and third series Competizione cars. Most importantly, the accompanying FIA papers confirm the chassis to be of correct period specifications, correct adjustable coil platform suspension, fitted with a roll bar, six correct Weber 40 DCN 21 carburetors, using an electric fuel pump, and dry sump lubrication. A large capacity ATL fuel cell (with FIA compliance) occupies a large portion of the trunk, and an approved fire suppression system is properly fitted to the car with dashboard activation easily at hand. Additionally, the car is equipped with a power steering unit, modern twin electric cooling fans, and dual-mode air conditioning, all of which are welcome upgrades particularly on long distance or summer driving events. In 2019 the car was sold through Fantasy Junction to the current and consigning owner. Work performed on the car under current ownership includes the addition of a power brake booster, the addition of Cadmium plated trumpets, and recent service by Patrick Ottis including re-jetting the carburetors to sea level. Today this Daytona presents as a stunning example representative of factory Competizione cars. Every detail of the original factory construction including the rare, exposed headlight configuration, thin front fender high-speed stability blades, deep-angle front spoiler, and flared fender construction are all beautifully configured as part of the hand formed alloy body. The all-alloy body is exceptionally well-made with excellent build quality including correctly finished exposed rivet construction with beautiful glossy red paint covering the alloy panels. The finishes are beautifully prepared and correctly outfitted with proper features such as a front tow hook, correct recessed exterior electrical cut off, polished aluminum fuel filler, and chrome finished side marker lights. The doors, hood, and trunk open and close with excellent panel fit, itself a remarkable achievement given the aluminum construction and hand fitting required for these panels. Emblems, lighting, and various trim are further in excellent condition, with both front and rear valances cleanly shaped in the body due to the absence of bumper trim. The side glass has been replaced with correctly fabricated lightweight Plexiglas sliding units and proper trim supporting the perimeter mounts. The wicked and pounce-like stance is enhanced by competition inspired satin gold Cromodora wheels, which are in excellent condition. The wider rear wheel and tire configuration (10.4” x 15”) and correct front wheel and tire sized Goodyear racing tires complete the competition appearance of this remarkably constructed car. The interior is a stunning combination of original Ferrari Daytona features including beautifully finished correct leather seating with perforated inserts, a correctly replicated racing dashboard, and exceptional interior accents. The dashboard has a well-composed combination of original style instruments and competition style toggle switches, coupled with an exposed gated shifter, correct Ferrari steering wheel, modern Simpson competition seat belts, and a foot-rest bar appropriate for fortunate passenger bracing when cornering at speed. The factory round dashboard vents offer cold A/C to the cabin via a two-stage toggle switch on the central panel. The general interior presentation throughout is one of high quality, combining important safety upgrades, originality, and historically correct Competizione features. The engine and engine compartment further exemplify the thoughtful combination of original features and finishes, blended with racing details and uniquely fabricated parts. The engine has been professionally rebuilt and restored using correct finishes, proper hardware, and assorted Ferrari components. The six dual-throat Weber carburetors are beautifully presented with Cadmium finished velocity stacks, surrounded by a hand-formed aluminum forced-air intake tray, which delivers a nice contrast to the clean and honest representations of the factory crackle black Ferrari cam covers and custom racing exhaust. Further finish details include proper wiring, correct hoses, and an assortment of specially made parts, which have been either hand built or refined from original specifications. The underside is further evidence of a clean and professionally prepared car that has been properly addressed throughout the build and maintained under previous and current ownership. The chassis shows no visual evidence of damage or structural compromise, presenting the same level of confidence, construction, and excellence afforded throughout the build. Opening the lightweight alloy doors via the delicate factory door handle, the leather trimmed Daytona seat await just beyond a slight lift over the padded FIA side protection bar. A specific starting procedure to the electric fuel pump and ignition releases a V12 fury into a deep and throaty idle as the engine warms to operating temperatures. The engine climbs the revs, warming slowly as it comes to temp. Ready to engage, the throttle responds with a crisp, raspy voice. The light clutch takes up smoothly without shuddering and the gearbox works very well, both cold and warm with excellent synchros. The suspension is taut and responsive, with a bit more stiffness than a typical road car, allowing for more aggressive cornering and power transfer when exiting corners. The brakes, now benefiting from power-assist, should be warmed up for competition use, but even under general driving conditions are quite impressive. Acceleration is similar to a road going Daytona until pushed into the higher revs where the engine delivers a welcomed boost of power that drivers will easily enjoy leveraging under more spirited driving conditions. The car is offered with select records, FIA papers, a car cover, and spare Plexiglass headlight covers. Having benefited from both high-quality mechanical and cosmetic preparation, the car remains impressive, but, as always, we recommend the next owner engage a qualified racing specialty shop to perform a careful review and inspection of all mechanical components prior to spirited competition use. This truly exceptional competition Daytona has been constructed by attentive experts with careful regard to Competizione specifications and appropriate modern racing updates to meet FIA requirements. Sold with FIA papers, this Competition Specification Daytona is ready to bring a new owner both street and event driving pleasure at a fraction of the cost of a multi-million-dollar period construction example. 1971 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona Competition Fantasy Junction 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 The arrival of the V12 flagship 365 GTB/4 “Daytona” stunned patrons of the 1968 Paris Auto Show. Unofficially named the Daytona by the press, commemorating the recent 1-2-3 finish by Ferrari at 24 hours of Daytona, the media name rightfully conveyed the inspirational Ferrari win, and cemented their brand as a world leader. The Daytona featured a landmark Pininfarina body design, capturing a crisp, modern look with reverence to classic GT cars of the past. Given the mid-engine surge from Lamborghini and other sports car manufacturers, the Daytona might have been considered dated, but performance figures obliterated any doubts in 1971 when Dan Gurney and Brock Yates won the rigorous Cannonball Run in their Daytona at an average speed of 80.1 mph across 3,000 miles of America. Technical specifications included a 4.4 liter quad cam Colombo V12 engine producing over 350 hp and rear-mounted 5-speed transaxle, delivering optimal weight distribution. With independent suspension, disc brakes at all four corners and superb weight balance, the Daytona was extremely fast (174mph top speed) and quick (0-60 in 5.3 sec). Just 1284 Daytonas were produced before yielding to the mid-engine Berlinetta Boxer. And while press and public awareness was centered around the premier road car performance, after 500 units had been produced, FIA homologation for International Group 4 Special Grand Touring allowed Ferrari to prepare a limited number of Competizione versions for customer use. This series included fabricating an all-alloy body similar to the thin alloy units prepared for the 1969 Le Mans 24 Hours. The factory cars also included a roll cage, wider rear tires, flared fender, front fender stabilizer blades (which improved high-speed front-end aerodynamics), side exit exhaust, and a cold airbox to aid air flow to the Weber carburetors. By 1972 the cars were competing to a high level of success, particularly with privateers through the 1970s adding several subsequent modifications and improvements to these specialized cars. This uniquely prepared competition build was originally constructed as a factory road car finished in white with black interior. The car was delivered new to an Italian client in 1971. Later sold to Japan, the car was imported to England in 2004 where the owner at that time embarked on a detailed and documented construction to Series 1 competition Group 4 specifications. During this construction, Series 1 modifications began by carefully removing the factory body shell and installing an FIA roll cage. Expert fabricator Steve MacFarlane fabricated a stunning 1.2 mm thickness alloy body enveloping the factory per original Competizione specifications. The wheel openings were flared to allow the correctly sized front and rear magnesium wheel and tire combination. The headlight configuration was also fabricated to competition standards with correct Plexiglas covers. Plexiglas sliding side windows and a plexiglass rear window were also installed per original specifications. A competition outside fuel filler cap was configured to the rear, directly feeding a large capacity FIA fuel cell located in the trunk of the car. The engine was rebuilt with high compression pistons and standard camshaft specifications and updated with Roelofs competition exhaust manifolds. The Weber carburetors were fitted with competition inlet trumpets and a hand formed cold air intake plenum positioned above the radiator. Tim Adams Racing Engines dyno tested the engine. The resulting power makes for a very exciting car on the track, while remaining very tractable for road use. After completion of the initial build, the car was shipped to Portugal where it was race-prepared by Lorenzini Autosports of Lisbon and granted FIA HTP. The car was track tested at Estoril before being stored away with less than 3 hours logged on the motor. This Daytona was then further updated including fresh red paint with racing livery, and engine upgrades. At this time, larger rear fender flares were added as well as induction cowl venting, updating the car to reflect some of the best attributes of the second and third series Competizione cars. Most importantly, the accompanying FIA papers confirm the chassis to be of correct period specifications, correct adjustable coil platform suspension, fitted with a roll bar, six correct Weber 40 DCN 21 carburetors, using an electric fuel pump, and dry sump lubrication. A large capacity ATL fuel cell (with FIA compliance) occupies a large portion of the trunk, and an approved fire suppression system is properly fitted to the car with dashboard activation easily at hand. Additionally, the car is equipped with a power steering unit, modern twin electric cooling fans, and dual-mode air conditioning, all of which are welcome upgrades particularly on long distance or summer driving events. In 2019 the car was sold through Fantasy Junction to the current and consigning owner. Work performed on the car under current ownership includes the addition of a power brake booster, the addition of Cadmium plated trumpets, and recent service by Patrick Ottis including re-jetting the carburetors to sea level. Today this Daytona presents as a stunning example representative of factory Competizione cars. Every detail of the original factory construction including the rare, exposed headlight configuration, thin front fender high-speed stability blades, deep-angle front spoiler, and flared fender construction are all beautifully configured as part of the hand formed alloy body. The all-alloy body is exceptionally well-made with excellent build quality including correctly finished exposed rivet construction with beautiful glossy red paint covering the alloy panels. The finishes are beautifully prepared and correctly outfitted with proper features such as a front tow hook, correct recessed exterior electrical cut off, polished aluminum fuel filler, and chrome finished side marker lights. The doors, hood, and trunk open and close with excellent panel fit, itself a remarkable achievement given the aluminum construction and hand fitting required for these panels. Emblems, lighting, and various trim are further in excellent condition, with both front and rear valances cleanly shaped in the body due to the absence of bumper trim. The side glass has been replaced with correctly fabricated lightweight Plexiglas sliding units and proper trim supporting the perimeter mounts. The wicked and pounce-like stance is enhanced by competition inspired satin gold Cromodora wheels, which are in excellent condition. The wider rear wheel and tire configuration (10.4” x 15”) and correct front wheel and tire sized Goodyear racing tires complete the competition appearance of this remarkably constructed car. The interior is a stunning combination of original Ferrari Daytona features including beautifully finished correct leather seating with perforated inserts, a correctly replicated racing dashboard, and exceptional interior accents. The dashboard has a well-composed combination of original style instruments and competition style toggle switches, coupled with an exposed gated shifter, correct Ferrari steering wheel, modern Simpson competition seat belts, and a foot-rest bar appropriate for fortunate passenger bracing when cornering at speed. The factory round dashboard vents offer cold A/C to the cabin via a two-stage toggle switch on the central panel. The general interior presentation throughout is one of high quality, combining important safety upgrades, originality, and historically correct Competizione features. The engine and engine compartment further exemplify the thoughtful combination of original features and finishes, blended with racing details and uniquely fabricated parts. The engine has been professionally rebuilt and restored using correct finishes, proper hardware, and assorted Ferrari components. The six dual-throat Weber carburetors are beautifully presented with Cadmium finished velocity stacks, surrounded by a hand-formed aluminum forced-air intake tray, which delivers a nice contrast to the clean and honest representations of the factory crackle black Ferrari cam covers and custom racing exhaust. Further finish details include proper wiring, correct hoses, and an assortment of specially made parts, which have been either hand built or refined from original specifications. The underside is further evidence of a clean and professionally prepared car that has been properly addressed throughout the build and maintained under previous and current ownership. The chassis shows no visual evidence of damage or structural compromise, presenting the same level of confidence, construction, and excellence afforded throughout the build. Opening the lightweight alloy doors via the delicate factory door handle, the leather trimmed Daytona seat await just beyond a slight lift over the padded FIA side protection bar.

- 1981 Audi Quattro
This 1981 Audi Quattro is a first-year build that has been kept to an exceptionally high level. Finished in Diamond Silver Metallic, this Quattro shows just 85,044 km on the odometer and has recently come out of long-term storage. The Quattro is immediately identifiable over its front-wheel drive Coupe GT brother thanks to its stunning box flared fenders and subtle rear wing. The paint and bodywork around this car is in fantastic condition and comes complete with the extremely period graphics along the lower door of the Audi logo with fading rings. Open the door, and a sea of velour greets you with a unique pattern imprinted on it– a combination of vertical stripes of brown and cream paired with diagonal zebra stripes covering the seats, doors, and headlining. Although this may not sound especially attractive to some, it works well with the rest of the car and is truly evocative of the period in which it was built. Sitting in front of the driver is a 4-spoke steering wheel with “Turbo” emblazoned in the center, and sitting behind it, a gauge cluster with the all-important turbo boost gauge sitting right in the middle. In addition to the HVAC controls, the center stack is equipped with a Blaupunkt Canberra cassette player and, below that, a knob to lock the differentials with individual lights for the front and rear. Powering the Quattro is a 2.1 liter inline-5, with the addition of a turbocharger and intercooler for a power bump. This means 197 horsepower and 210 lb-ft of torque from just 3,500 rpm and a 0-100 km/h sprint of just 7.1 seconds. With a top speed of over 220 km/h, the Quattro was in a similar league to the contemporary 911 SC, but that performance was achieved very differently. Power was sent through a 5-speed manual gearbox to a full-time 4-wheel drive system- with switchable differential locks both front and rear. After being used sparingly for 15 years, this car was subject to a thorough mechanical reconditioning which included a complete engine overhaul, a new turbocharger, new suspension, and new brakes. Opening the hood, the engine bay is in exceptional condition and it is hard to believe the car is more than 40 years old. By modern car standards, the Quattro won’t blow you away with its speed. Still, the overall package is remarkably cohesive and, on a sweeping B-road, instills great confidence in the driver. Before you know it, you are attacking corners at a remarkable pace while listening to that inline-5 growl emanating from the rear. Produced until 1991, only 11,452 units were produced, and due to the car’s mastery of wet and snowy weather, many have been lost over the years to rust or accidents. For decades, Audi separated itself from other luxury manufacturers thanks to its innovative all-wheel drive system, if you want to experience where that all came from- this Quattro is the perfect car to do just that. 1981 Audi Quattro JamesEdition B.V.
