Maserati A6 GCS chassis number 2065 was one of two such cars ordered from Maserati in 1953 by the French Importers Garage Mirabeau in Paris. The sister car, chassis no. 2064 was retained and raced by Jean Simone, who was the co-owner of Garage Mirabeau along with Jean Thepenier. Chassis no. 2065 was delivered to Armand Roboly. Simone and Roboly had raced many times as co-drivers in a Jaguar C-Type, and were close friends and enthusiastic participants in French motor racing of the era. Chassis number 2065’s build sheet indicates that it was completed on 11 April 1954 and given a temporary Italian registration number of BO 36382. The colour was noted in the build sheet as French Blue, however contemporary photographs suggest it was in a lighter hue than usual. Following delivery to France, Armand Roboly gave the new car its first outing in late April 1954 at the Marrakech Grand Prix in Morocco. His friend Jean Simone raced the sister car in the same event. Roboly finished that race in 3rd place, whilst unfortunately Simone was injured in a crash. The A6 GCS then participated actively in France during the 1954 season, including entries at the Coupes de Paris, 12 Heures of Reims, Grand Prix des Sables d’Olonne, Grand Prix de la Baule, and the Coupes de Salon at Montlhéry. The car’s early racing history is beautifully chronicled in Walter Bäumer and Jean-François Blachette’s recently published book, Maserati A6GCS. Chassis no. 2065 was then sold, most probably again through the business relationship Roboly maintained with Garage Mirabeau, although the car was physically collected in Modena suggesting that it was factory refurbished and prepared prior to sale. Its new owner was Andre Loens, a native of Northern France but at that time resident in Southampton in the UK. Loens was a highly competent driver who was very active in 500 cc racing and the purchase of this A6 GCS must have been a significant investment for him and a serious step up the racing ladder. The car was kept in its blue livery and retained its temporary Bologna registration markings. The car first reappeared in native Northern France at Lille, and its arrival was enthusiastically described in the local press. Loens’ first outing with the car however was in the UK where it was entered in the 2.0-litre class at the 1955 Goodwood Easter outing. Loens raced the car with great energy and some notable success during 1955, moving the car between Finland, France, Sweden, participating in the Swedish Grand Prix, then to Jersey, and finally back to the UK where he entered chassis no. 2065 in the 1955 Tourist Trophy at Dundrod in partnership with Jo Bonnier. The two drivers finished first in the 2.0-litre category. Their final race of 1955 was at Castle Combe in October. Loens’ intense activity with the car continued in 1956 with a similarly diverse set of entries sequentially in Helsinki, Belgium, France, Denmark, Sweden, and then back at France for the Coupe d’Automne and finally again at the Coupes de Salon where Loens is photographed happily conversing with Stirling Moss, Alfonso De Portago, and Harry Schell as they approached the track. In 1957, the season resumed in a similar pattern. The A6 GCS was again in Scandinavia in May, at Elaintarhanajo in Helsinki, followed by a return to Forez in France. We can well imagine that by this time, chassis no. 2065 was tired, and its physical condition today shows evidence of several racing incidents, notably some strengthening of the chassis members as they pass above the rear axle. Perhaps for this or some mechanical reasons, Loens appears in the car at the grid of the Deux Heures du Forez in July 1957 but did not start. This may have been a contributing reason for Loens to travel to Modena later that same month to trade his now well-used and surely much-loved A6 GCS for the more recently built 200 S. The Maserati factory archives record this transaction and whilst the car was evidently in an adequately drivable condition, such that it could arrive on the grid at Forez, Loens fatefully decided to exchange his faith in chassis number 2065 for a newer Maserati. Sadly, Loens died in an accident driving the new 200 S, back at the familiar circuit of Montlhéry in October 1957 whilst leading the race. The last recorded location for this A6 GCS has caused debate over the whereabouts of the car in the intervening years. It was not unusual for Maserati to take older model cars back into their stock for refurbishment and resale. In order to assist with sales of newer cars, Maserati themselves often refurbished racing cars for a ‘second’ life on the circuits. Given Andre Loens’ prolific activity with the car, we can imagine that it arrived back in Modena in a condition where a great deal of refurbishment work was needed. The car was by then approaching five years of age and whilst the A6 GCS was a highly reliable, much-loved, and still competitive racing car, with a strong following, it was also in 1957 that Maserati itself withdrew from racing and, simultaneously, that road racing was being banned in European countries following the series of fatal accidents. Under these circumstances it seems unlikely that Maserati, a company facing financial pressure at the time, and concentrating on its road cars, would have thought it a productive investment to restore a worn and well-used A6 GCS. What is well known and shown in numerous period photographs is that a large number of historical racing cars had been accumulated at the factory for the purpose of maintaining a heritage collection, together with a larger number of racing cars, complete and incomplete, in various forms of storage, repair, and restoration. The fact that chassis no. 2065 is documented as being one of such cars present at the factory at the end of its racing life in 1957 is an intriguing component to recent efforts to fill out the gaps in its history. In 1998, the factory department “Maserati Vendite”, issued by signed telefax, a copy of the build sheet of chassis no. 2065 to assist in a restoration of the car ongoing at the time in Reggio Emilia. Photographs of this restoration show a rolling chassis with partly disassembled bodywork and provide close detailed evidence that this car is the one offered here today. The accompanying documentation includes a number of attestations from the workshop, stating that the car was delivered to them as a ´rolling chassis’. This carrossière performed the full refurbishment and reassembly of the car, works mainly to the bodywork, however the identity of the owner at the time has not been ascertained. By 2001, now in a completely new livery of red and dark blue, chassis no. 2065 was introduced at a presentation given in a Maserati concessionaire in Modena. Photographs of the event show a number of recognisable attendees associated with the marque admiring the car at its first presentation in public. Shortly after this the car was sold to a well-known German collector driver of Maseratis in vintage racing. As such, the car then ran frequently in the Shell Historic challenge in the early 2000s. Following a subsequent sale of the car to an Australian collector, who entered the car twice in the Mille Miglia Historic, the well-known and highly respected race support and engineering firm of Hall & Hall in the UK took responsibility for maintenance and preparation. Both Rick and Rob Hall personally became fascinated by the car and its history. Together with the Historian Richard Crump they decided not to spend time trying to piece together the missing timeline, because for all anyone knew the car may never have left the factory to race in period again after 1957. Documentation of such re-purchased cars was disrupted during the turbulent periods of Maserati ownership by Citroen and De Tomasso. Instead Hall & Hall went back to basics and examined the car from a purely technical and engineering perspective. They became totally convinced that the car showed all the correct signs of originality together with the sort of repairs and scars which would have been inflicted during such a busy racing life. It was also noted that no attempts had been made to cosmetically improve the chassis, even in the area of the rear-end stiffening, which looks like a trackside repair, not one made with permanent intent. At this time the car was in good running condition following its relatively recent renaissance in Italy, and was being enjoyed by its owner, so Hall & Hall had no reason to fully dismantle the car and continue this forensic endeavor. The owner simply wanted to enjoy the car. CURRENT OWNERSHIP The current custodian of chassis no. 2065 had been a collector of twelve-cylinder Ferrari road cars since the mid-1990s. Despite owning cars such as an alloy-bodied 275 GTB with six-carburetors, he began to tire of the relative softness of such models and stepped out into the world of road-race cars when he purchased a 500 Mondial, and then added to that a 200 SI. Now a complete convert to this new motoring challenge, and all the event potential it offered, he explored these two four-cylinder models enthusiastically, partly in rallies with the Maserati Club of Italy, and came to the conclusion that he wanted to move to a six-cylinder car which would offer a more linear engine response and be better suited to long road events such as the Mille Miglia. Searching specifically for an A6 GCS, he found that chassis no. 2065 seemed to be the most original and well-prepared example on the market at the time, and thus it was purchased. During his ownership, the car has always been enthusiastically driven and has continued to appear in the Mille Miglia on now a total of five occasions within the last twelve years. However, the car was rarely transported to or from the event and instead was driven from Brescia and back to its summer storage in southwest France both on the heavily trafficked route along the French Riviera and over the Alpine routes. Typically, the current owner would add at least 1,200 km to the Mille Miglia itinerary in driving to and from the event. He admits to having stayed in more luxurious hotels than offered on the Mille Miglia, but he and his companions kept their clothes in an Ikea bag stored above the spare tyre. The car never missed a beat. The car is listed on the Registro 1000 Miglia and would be welcomed with open arms back to future iterations of the fabled event. In 2020, the well-used A6 GCS began to show signs of valve wear and whilst it was still performing reliably, the decision was made to do a complete engine restoration using the highly reputed French specialists, AB Racing SARL, the owner’s long-term support outfit for engineering and event preparation in Europe. This work happily coincided with the preparation of the recently published definitive book on the model, Maserati A6GCS, authored jointly by the knowledgeable Maserati historian Walter Bäumer and Jean-François Blachette, Club Maserati France Chairman, in which the car is appropriately referenced. Whilst the engine was removed for a complete rebuild, an opportunity was created to examine the car in close detail by dismantling many components such as brake drums, transmission, and chassis to reveal their mechanical story and to piece together a full understanding of what has happened to the car technically since its delivery in 1954. In summary, it was revealed that many components of the car had never been fully disassembled before. Wear patterns and the condition of internal components showed a perfect consistency. These include the brake drums, the sand cast block, and the cylinder head (which still bore the original steel wires used to hold the cores during casting). The chassis paint history can be traced and shows its correct series of coatings in sequence to what finally appears to have been a cheap and quick cosmetic overspray made during the Italian restoration. Many matching factory assembly numbers are present on the car and the serial number 2065 is of course stamped on the cylinder head and chassis. Additionally, after cleaning decades of grime on the steering box casing, the stamped number 2065 was also discovered in the correct Maserati font for the period. A most important discovery was also made on the anti-roll bars which have been sleeved and the sleeve seam then welded. This was barely visible under the layers of paint but reference to the 1954 build sheet, issued officially by the factory in 1998, states that a special client request was made to stiffen the roll bars—“barra de compensations diamètre 14 (Tipo a tube latérali saldati)”. As far as it is known, 2065 may be the only A6 GCS with this factory modification. A twelve-page detailed report is included in the history file. Whilst no work has been done to examine the bodywork, as the owner was keen to regain use of the car, the consensus is that as a running chassis, 2065 is amongst the most original A6 GCSs in existence. Its condition suggests strongly that the car was unused since its period racing days and then restored with quite minimal mechanical work perhaps in order for it to be sold in the early 2000s. It is presently in top mechanical condition, having seen little use since the thorough rebuild in 2024, and a fresh service in January 2025, making it ready to tackle any number of historic racing events in the 2025 season. 1954 Maserati A6 GCS RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Few sports cars combine potent performance, nimble handling, beauty, and rarity quite like the Alpine A110. Featuring Renault mechanicals and shapely fiberglass bodywork, the petite, rear-engine A110 is one of the greatest European rally cars of its decade. Revered for its handling and performance, the A110 established a formidable reputation in the late 1960s and early 1970s with various wins in the International Championship for Manufacturers—forerunner to the World Rally Championship—but truly cemented its name in rally folklore at the first ever WRC event, the 1973 Monte Carlo Rally. Jean-Claude Andruet led an incredible 1-2-3 finish for the Renault-backed factory team as the A110 overpowered rivals from Fiat, Ford, and Lancia. Alpine-Renault proceeded almost unchallenged to claim that year’s manufacturer’s championship. This well-loved example has traveled across the Atlantic multiple times to be enjoyed by appreciative and attentive owners on two continents. Its chassis number confirms the car was manufactured in 1964, though little is known of its early history. Correspondence on file suggests that it was exported from southern France to North America in the late 1970s with a stripped interior and other competition features offered from the factory in period. At some point the car’s 1,108-cubic-centimeter four-cylinder engine was replaced with a later 1,255-cubic-centimeter Gordini inline-four from an A110 1300 G, which would later be tuned to 1300 S specification, displacing 1,296 cubic centimeters. Service invoices dating from 1978 indicate a Toronto-based owner ordered parts directly from Renault France and had the car serviced in Toronto, including having the cylinders honed in June 1981. In September 1993, the Alpine passed to its next owner, who drove it from Toronto across Canada and the United States to his home in Vancouver, British Columbia, later enjoying it on trips down the California coast. In the early 2000s the Alpine passed to an owner in Columbia, South Carolina, who had the four-speed manual gearbox replaced with a five-speed and the engine tuned and valves adjusted. In 2005, this owner would sell the car to its next caretaker based in the United Kingdom, who would register it not for road use, secure its Historic Technical Passport, and drive it competitively in UK hill climbs and club events throughout the mid-to-late 2000s. Under his care, the Alpine would see extensive servicing and upkeep, including installing a roll cage and replacing the Plexiglass rear window, exhaust manifold, silencer, clutch, and tires in 2006; having the engine removed to repair a cracked connecting rod; installing a new clutch kit in 2009 and a new fuel pump and electrical work in 2010. In 2012 The Autoshop Accident Repair Centre in Stroud, Gloucestershire, would strip the body of paint, repair damaged fiberglass bodywork throughout, and repaint the car in blue. Photos for the work are on file. In 2013, the same shop would repair cracks and holes in the dash and repaint it in a black crackle finish. Following this owner’s thorough enjoyment and dutiful care, the Alpine would pass to a couple of other UK-based owners before crossing the Atlantic once again to Sonoma, California. He would retain the car for two years, after which the consignor would acquire it in October 2022. Today, the car presents well, featuring a beautifully finished replacement interior in tan leather with attractive diamond-quilted pattern and racing harnesses. Period features such as three-lug factory-style alloy wheels and fog lamps enhance the presentation. Now offered with a history file with invoices, correspondence, registrations, export documents, and more, this well-loved Alpine-Renault is ready for its next adventure. 1964 Alpine A110 1100 V70 RM Sotheby's 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 Few sports cars combine potent performance, nimble handling, beauty, and rarity quite like the Alpine A110. Featuring Renault mechanicals and shapely fiberglass bodywork, the petite, rear-engine A110 is one of the greatest European rally cars of its decade. Revered for its handling and performance, the A110 established a formidable reputation in the late 1960s and early 1970s with various wins in the International Championship for Manufacturers—forerunner to the World Rally Championship—but truly cemented its name in rally folklore at the first ever WRC event, the 1973 Monte Carlo Rally. Jean-Claude Andruet led an incredible 1-2-3 finish for the Renault-backed factory team as the A110 overpowered rivals from Fiat, Ford, and Lancia. Alpine-Renault proceeded almost unchallenged to claim that year’s manufacturer’s championship. This well-loved example has traveled across the Atlantic multiple times to be enjoyed by appreciative and attentive owners on two continents. Its chassis number confirms the car was manufactured in 1964, though little is known of its early history. Correspondence on file suggests that it was exported from southern France to North America in the late 1970s with a stripped interior and other competition features offered from the factory in period. At some point the car’s 1,108-cubic-centimeter four-cylinder engine was replaced with a later 1,255-cubic-centimeter Gordini inline-four from an A110 1300 G, which would later be tuned to 1300 S specification, displacing 1,296 cubic centimeters. Service invoices dating from 1978 indicate a Toronto-based owner ordered parts directly from Renault France and had the car serviced in Toronto, including having the cylinders honed in June 1981. In September 1993, the Alpine passed to its next owner, who drove it from Toronto across Canada and the United States to his home in Vancouver, British Columbia, later enjoying it on trips down the California coast. In the early 2000s the Alpine passed to an owner in Columbia, South Carolina, who had the four-speed manual gearbox replaced with a five-speed and the engine tuned and valves adjusted. In 2005, this owner would sell the car to its next caretaker based in the United Kingdom, who would register it not for road use, secure its Historic Technical Passport, and drive it competitively in UK hill climbs and club events throughout the mid-to-late 2000s.

General History Alfa Romeo, Italian masters of automobile manufacturing, were not always prolific producers of production sports cars. Prior to the Giulia and Giulietta, Alfas were grand, handmade vehicles involving detailed labor and complex fabrication. All this changed when these two brilliantly engineered cars entered the market. With relatively low entry costs, attractive styling, and delightful driving manners, Alfa Romeo secured a promising position in the growing postwar world car market. The Giulia and Giulietta were small, sporty, and charming, yet finely trimmed, giving an air of sophistication young men and women appreciated during prosperous post war years. Both models enjoyed success, with strong sales in Europe and North America, due in part to growing interest in small sporty cars. Among the most desired of these cars were the Veloce equipped Spiders. Initially the 1300cc twin cam in-line four-cylinder engine featured twin Weber carburetors, higher compression ratio, and spirited cam profiles, resulting in improved overall performance. By 1962 the engine was upgraded to 1600, improving both performance and reliability in the new smoother running engine. The Pininfarina bodied Spider would remain in production until 1966, a testimony to the advanced design and sporty styling. These features continue to be highly regarded by collectors and enthusiasts, particularly so for factory original 1965 Spider Veloce models as approximately 1,000 were built in this series with the final improvements reflected in 1965, the last year of this series. General Overview According to correspondence from Macro Fazio, Centro Documentzione Alfa, this 1600 Veloce was built March 30th, 1965, and sold April 1st to Alfa Romeo, Inc., Newark, USA. The factory colors are noted as red with black interior. Though not much is known about the early years of ownership, the prior owner commissioned a comprehensive three-year restoration which was completed in 2016. During the restoration, the process was documented with photos showing the car fully disassembled, stripped to bare metal, rotisserie mounted, red oxide primer and black finish applied to the chassis surfaces, the engine fully disassembled and rebuilt, and all other components from the suspension, brakes, gearbox, and fully reupholstered interior, refinished to a high standard. The current owner purchased this Alfa in 2016 shortly after the restoration was completed. During his decade of ownership, the car has been regularly maintained and serviced as needed. Copies of receipts included with the car document services performed under current ownership dating back to 2016 (88k miles indicated in 2016) while the car was located in Southern California. Services from 2016 include installing a new windshield, new seat belt, driver’s side mirror, gearbox synchro work, 5 new Vredestein 155 SR15 tires and four wheel alignment, along with brake and carburetor work. In 2017 services continued including a tune up and fluid changes, engine cleaning, detailing, and bolt torquing, Pertronix ignition installed, and road testing for various diagnostics. In 2018, an annual fluid service was performed, window regulators repaired, new fuel lines installed, transmission work performed including a new input shaft seal, a new hood insulation blanket installed, oil pan gasket replaced, electrical serviced including new headlight switch and blower switch, and a new fuel pump was installed. In 2019, the car was given an annual fluid change, and the rear brake axle and assembly were removed and serviced including new differential gear oil and reseal. In 2021, a major service was performed including valve adjustment, front brake resurfacing for rotors, and carb cleaning. In 2024, the carburetors were serviced, including new floats, jet cleaning etc. new fuel filter, and a new Bosch ignitor was installed. In 2025, the rear brakes were adjusted, new rear brake wheel cylinders installed, and gauges tested and serviced. General Condition Today this Veloce Spider presents in excellent condition throughout including glossy red paint that has been very well maintained with excellent coverage and a smooth, glossy finish. The exterior trim is in excellent condition overall including a very nice Alfa Romeo branded central grille flanked by front bumpers with correct fitting side openings and trim. Unlike many Spiders of this era the chrome bumpers are properly positioned, parallel to the grille openings with excellent fit and finish. A pair of correct Carello stamped chrome headlight trim rings and correct spiral domed turn indicators are just a few fine details that show the care and detail afforded during restoration. The hood features a raised profile hood scoop which was updated in the last two years of production to allow more room for the improved engine. Continuing the cosmetic appearance of the car, the lighting, bumpers, and various trim and script are also in excellent condition. The body panel gaps are consistent showing very good closures and tight fit, including both doors which show excellent part lines and tight closure. The windshield and side glass are in excellent condition with smooth operation to the side glass when raised and lowered. Outfitted with correct silver painted steel wheels with polished wheel covers, the wheels are shod with a set of Vredestein Sprint Classic 155 SR15 tires installed in 2016. The interior is just as impressive as the exterior featuring beautifully trimmed black bucket seats with authentic appearance to the materials, foam padding, correct seat pleating, and a pair of matching seat belts. The door panels and side panels are like new with excellent quality to the finishes while the carpeting and Alfa Romeo embossed black rubber mats are also essentially like new. The dashboard is gorgeous and beautifully detailed, featuring crystal clear instruments with excellent color and contrast to the dial faces and glass covers. The black dash padding is also like new and a correct Blaupunkt AM/FM push button radio is installed. The black canvas convertible top appears new, here too with excellent fit and finish, new rubber, and a soft clear plastic window. The trunk is reflective of the same level of restoration excellence exhibited throughout the car, clean and well-maintained, retaining a matching silver finished steel wheel, matching red inner surface, a factory jack with correct strapped buckle hold downs, and a correct Alfa Romeo embossed rubber floor mat. The battery, dated March 2024, is installed in the trunk. 
Under the hood, the engine bay offers correct presentation reflective of original specifications including a correct diamond-tufted silver hood insulation pad and an Alfa Romeo specifications plate. Nicely detailed and worthy of Alfa Romeo club concours presentation, the 1,600cc twin cam engine is correctly restored including twin dual throat side draft 48 Weber carburetors, a correct cast alloy airbox, and a correctly finished alloy twin cam cover. Additional details include a blue washer fluid bag, correct hoses and clamps, proper ignition wires, and correct firewall stampings, engine decals, and proper finishes to the various engine components. The undercarriage completes the high quality restoration, offering excellent finishes including correct alloy engine and gearbox castings, a Facet electric fuel pump, correct axle limit straps on the rear axle, correctly finished suspension and brake components, and recently replaced IMA Italian made exhaust from the header to the chrome exhaust finisher tip. The car starts, stops, runs, and drives very capably as evidenced in the driving video shown in the gallery. Brakes and suspension are very well balanced, and the car has a great gearbox with excellent synchros having benefited from more recent service. Driving manners are among the best we’ve seen in a Spider Veloce particularly so with the extra power offered with the 1,600cc engine in the final two years of production. This example is very well prepared, has great steering and brakes, and delivers wonderful sounds from the twin cam engine. Items Included with the Car The car is accompanied by copies of service documents under current ownership, photos chronicling the restoration including detailed photos of the engine rebuild, a Technical Characteristics Giulia booklet and a Giulia 1600 user manual. 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider Veloce Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Replacing the vaunted 275 GTB/4 would be no easy feat for Ferrari, and with stiff competition arriving in the form of Lamborghini’s Miura, Maranello was faced with the dilemma to either reinvent itself by launching a line of mid-engined supercars, or stick to what it did best; continue to build the very best 12-cylinder, front-engined grand touring cars the world had ever seen. They chose the latter, and the 365 GTB/4 Daytona was introduced to the world in 1968. Fitted with a 4.4-litre V-12 engine capable of producing 352 horsepower and boasting a 280 km/h top speed, this was one of the fastest production automobiles to ever put rubber to road. Le Mans-winning Ferrari driver and well-known automotive journalist Paul Frère claimed to hit 176 mph in autostrada traffic in 1969. ‘It’s the engine that makes the music,’ he noted, ‘the finest music of all to the ears of the enthusiast, and the music he can enjoy in a well-sprung car, fitted with such amenities as electric window lifters, air conditioning…and a really capacious luggage locker—a Grand Touring car par excellence.’ Built as a late-specification Daytona in 1973, the model’s final year of production, chassis number 16437 was originally finished in Rosso Chiaro Ferrari (20-R-190 Salchi) over a Pelle Nera (VM 8500) interior. It was originally imported to Spain through the country’s official Ferrari importer, T.A.Y.R.E of Madrid. According to Ferrari historian Marcel Massini, the Daytona was displayed at the 1973 Barcelona Motor Show; a photo of the car on the stand can be seen in Autopista magazine’s report of the show, with chassis number 16437 seen sitting alongside a 365 GT4 2+2 and a 246 Dino GT. First registered in Spain in May of 1973, little is known of the car’s early history, although it did remain in Spain throughout the 1990s and was featured on the cover of the Spanish classic car magazine Motor Clásico in its June 1993 issue. Invoices on file from the car’s time in Spain in the 1990s show numerous parts purchases from official Ferrari distributors in the UK, suggesting that the car was likely undergoing a restoration at this time. The Daytona remained in Spain until 2000, when it was purchased by a well-known Ferrari collector in Bordeaux and exported to France. A number of invoices from his ownership are available to view on file. In 2018, the Ferrari was acquired by the current owner, who immediately commissioned a raft of restoration work. A full repaint was carried out in its original Rosso Chiaro, upholstery work was carried out on the interior, perished rubber components including weatherstripping and engine hoses were replaced, while four new Michelin XWX tyres, fresh spark plugs, and new engine mounts were fitted; accompanying invoices amount to approximately €60,000. In 2022, the Daytona was issued Ferrari Classiche certification, confirming that it is presented today as it was when it departed the factory in 1973. Importantly, the car’s certification documents confirm that it retains its original chassis, engine, gearbox, and bodywork. In addition to the Classiche certification, the Daytona is accompanied by numerous invoices from its time in both France and Spain. Unquestionably one of Ferrari’s most iconic automobiles, the 365 GTB/4 Daytona remains a bucket-list purchase for many enthusiasts. Its grand-touring credentials are unparalleled and the model remains more than capable of outpacing modern traffic—the perfect tool for long-distance tours across continental Europe. Considering its recent restoration work and Classiche certification, this particular example would be an ideal purchase for the individual looking to experience a truly incredible automobile. 1973 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 RM Sotheby's 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 Replacing the vaunted 275 GTB/4 would be no easy feat for Ferrari, and with stiff competition arriving in the form of Lamborghini’s Miura, Maranello was faced with the dilemma to either reinvent itself by launching a line of mid-engined supercars, or stick to what it did best; continue to build the very best 12-cylinder, front-engined grand touring cars the world had ever seen. They chose the latter, and the 365 GTB/4 Daytona was introduced to the world in 1968. Fitted with a 4.4-litre V-12 engine capable of producing 352 horsepower and boasting a 280 km/h top speed, this was one of the fastest production automobiles to ever put rubber to road. Le Mans-winning Ferrari driver and well-known automotive journalist Paul Frère claimed to hit 176 mph in autostrada traffic in 1969. ‘It’s the engine that makes the music,’ he noted, ‘the finest music of all to the ears of the enthusiast, and the music he can enjoy in a well-sprung car, fitted with such amenities as electric window lifters, air conditioning…and a really capacious luggage locker—a Grand Touring car par excellence.’ Built as a late-specification Daytona in 1973, the model’s final year of production, chassis number 16437 was originally finished in Rosso Chiaro Ferrari (20-R-190 Salchi) over a Pelle Nera (VM 8500) interior.

Among the greatest of the Ferrari 250 road cars, the 250 Lusso continues to be regarded by collectors and enthusiasts as the finest iteration of the classic road-going Ferrari. Though powerfully equipped, the Lusso was nimble, visually dynamic, and stunning from every view. Lower and wider than earlier iteration 250s, the rear Kamm tail treatment modernized the overall appearance while aiding high speed stability. Positioned between the larger 250 GTE 2+2 and the competition oriented SWB, the Lusso provided the ideal fit, delivering an athletic GT car with legendary visual appeal and the finest in V12 performance. Though the exterior design remains a highpoint of this series, Ferrari’s venerable and fully developed 3.0 liter outside plug Colombo V12 engine was key to the success of the Lusso. This series would, of course, become recognized as the premier iteration as the 250 GT. Engineering features included disc brakes, weight-saving aluminum deck lids and doors, and competition derived suspension. The interior was trimmed to high standards and featured a unique centrally mounted tachometer and speedometer - an inspiring feature of the Lusso design. Production was relatively brief, from January of 1963 to August of 1964 with just 350 examples built. For collectors seeking the ultimate in a road-going 250 GT V12, the Lusso exemplifies Ferrari’s legendary 250 SWB in road-going form. Since their introduction, Lussos have become blue-chip Ferraris with premium examples finding residence among the finest collections throughout the world. According to the Marcel Massini report accompanying this car, Lusso s/n 4497 was completed August 10, 1963, finished in Grigio Argento (code 18940 M) over Nero Connolly leather. An early series car (#54 of the 350 units produced) this example was delivered to Luigi Chinetti Motors, New York, NY in August 1963. Though the first owner of record is not recorded in 1963, by 1967, Massini reports the car was sold to John W. Carmack, a resident of Carmel, CA. Under Carmack’s ownership, the car was featured in March 1970 Ferrari Club of America Prancing Horse Magazine, issue #28. The following year, the car was sold to Richard Pendleton Hall, Maryland. By 1977, Hall sold the car to Charles Girand, Dallas, TX. The car was subsequently offered in 1989 by Rick Cole and purchased by Chic and Chris Vandagriff’s “Hollywood Sport Cars”. Known for their passion in sports cars with a keen interest in Ferraris, as dealers they never titled the car, rather keeping it in what was described to be largely original condition. In 1993, this Lusso sold the car to the current California owner who has thoughtfully preserved and maintained the car for the past 31 years including retaining the original matching numbers engine and matching gearbox, as verified by the accompanying Marcel Massini report. Service records accompanying the car date back to 2015 including approximately $25k in mechanical work performed that year by Fast Cars Ltd., Redondo Beach, CA. This invoice included all fluid changes, new oil, coolant, and fuel lines, new soft brake lines, rebuild for all carburetors, new shock shafts and bushings, rebuilding all brake cylinders, new fuel lines and fuel pump rebuild, new rear axle seals, along with addressing various other interior lighting, trim, and detail features. Regular interval services and other items continued to be provided by “Fast Cars” from 2017-2021. A 2007 appraisal on file with the car notes 23,275 miles on the odometer. The odometer currently indicates 23,337 miles which are believed to be original to the car based on the condition, history, and presentation of this Lusso. Today this Ferrari Lusso offers a rare opportunity for an enthusiast to acquire an unrestored Lusso, one that has been thoughtfully maintained under long-term California ownership, mechanically serviced as needed, and ready for driving enjoyment. Rarely discovered in enjoyably modest condition, many of these cars have become overdone with restorations far beyond the original purpose of these elegant road machines. In this example, the exterior finish appears to be an older respray which has mellowed over time, showing a few blemishes, but none to detract from the subtle silver color over the dramatic Pininfarina body. The doors and trunk have generally consistent panel fit and closure, while the hood sits slightly proud of the forward edge. The exterior chrome, trim, and glass are very nice throughout including the lovely Marchal headlamps and recessed Lusso fog lamps. The Borrani wire wheels and chrome plated knock offs are beautifully finished wearing a set of Pirelli Cinturato 185/R15 tires. The interior continues the theme of preservation under long-term ownership presenting what appears to be largely original finishes, much of which have benefited from indoor storage and minimal use. The black leather seats appear to be original and unrestored, benefiting from reconditioning. The front seat material and stitching show typical corner seam stretching and some scuff marks from general use but are otherwise very well-preserved. The rear cargo area, inner door panels, side panels, and soft trim appear consistent with original finishes. The black carpet is correctly trimmed and fitted but likely is an older replacement installed many years ago. The dashboard and instruments are very nice with excellent color and clarity. The trunk is reflective of original materials. A spare wire wheel is in place. Overall, the interior is reflective of largely original materials and components capturing the preserved, long-term California ownership history in a readily drivable car one can immediately enjoy at Ferrari gatherings, local events, with the added incentive to further investigate originality in the company of preservation-minded experts. Under the hood, the V12 engine delivers a very confident presentation. The engine number 4497 is a single strike numeric combination which matches the chassis number as confirmed by the Massini report. The engine delivers honest finishes, here too not overly prepared to intimidate use or suffered by a heavy polishing hand. Rather, finishes such as the correct black wrinkle cam covers, correctly finished air cleaner, proper hardware and linkages, correct series Weber carburetors, correct windscreen washer fluid bag, distinctive yellow fuel lines, and correct factory manufacturing stampings and build plates are all consistent with the original 350 cars built in this series. The chassis is representative of an unrestored example showing properly serviced components with appropriate replacements for rubber hoses, suspension bushings, and other consumables, but otherwise indicative of a preserved and gently enjoyed Lusso. The numbers matching transmission stamping is also confirmed per the Massini report. The factory castings, authentic coatings and components complete the underside including factory accurate exhaust and mufflers, and suspension components. There is no visual evidence of structural compromise to the chassis or suspension mounting points. This Lusso starts up delivering a wonderful raspy V12 exhaust note. The car runs and drives extremely well, with a tight and responsive feel often absent from trailered concours level cars. The engine is well tuned, while the four-speed gearbox offers excellent action through all gears, progressive acceleration, and strong pull in the higher rev range. Sounds, speeds, and glorious front fender lines welcome you into the rarified world of premium V12 motoring when behind the wheel. Of course, the very best in highway touring is what the Lusso does best, humming along at 60 mph with plenty of power on tap for a quick gear change and a run up to passing speeds with confident 4-wheel disc braking coming down smoothly. In all, the driving manners are enjoyable, refined, and yet still indicative of this bygone era of motorsports excellence and craftsmanship. This Lusso presents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a matching numbers Ferrari coming out of 30+ years of current California ownership. Offered with Massini report, numerous sympathetic original finishes, and regular mechanical services as needed, this driver-centered example is ready for the next chapter in Ferrari ownership. Finished in original colors, this Lusso comes with a Ferrari maintenance manual, a vintage Ferrari Lusso book, a factory jack, mallet, and tire jack bag, a copy of the Massini report, and copies of service records dating back to 2015. As more preservation level cars are being honored for retaining original finishes and maintained as genuinely enjoyed cars under long-term ownership, the next fortunate owner can look forward to miles of enjoyable driving, Ferrari club events, and the pleasure of authentic V12 motoring for decades to come. 1964 Ferrari 250 GT/L Lusso Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Built in March of 1996, this 993 Carrera Cabriolet is a particularly special example that was delivered new to Stuttgart in May of 1996 before being shipped to California, where it lived for almost 20 years. This Carrera has numerous special features, but the most notable is the stunning Forest Green Metallic Paint to Sample- ordered at a time when the PTS program was not commonplace. Under the current ownership, this Carrera was updated with new European bumpers, and the speedometer and odometer have been converted from miles to kilometers, with the odometer showing 125,110 km. Fitted with 17” Cup wheels and Porsche Crest wheel caps, this car is in absolutely stunning condition throughout. The interior is wrapped in Cashmere Supple leather, which perfectly complements the dark green on the exterior. It is also fitted with the rarely seen but very desirable Aluminum dial faces- these add some visual interest to the interior but look much higher quality than adding red or yellow faces to the gauges. These aluminum accents are paired with brushed stainless Carrera sill plates, an aluminum shift knob, and hand brake lever. The driver and passenger both get power-adjustable seats with heating, but the driver’s seat is also fitted with power lumbar adjustment for added comfort on long drives. Powering the 993 Carrera is a 3.6-liter M64 Flat-6 engine that produces 272 horsepower and 243 lb-ft of torque and loves to pull hard all the way to the 7,000 rpm redline. 1996 was the first year of the VarioRam system on the 993, which features variable length intake runners and is designed to optimize both low-down torque and high RPM power. The implementation of this system resulted in an increase of 14 horsepower and 10 lb-ft of torque. In this Carrera, the engine has been freshly serviced and is ready to be driven. This engine is paired with a 6-speed manual Getrag gearbox with Porsche’s famous floor-hinged pedals. Power is then sent to the rear wheels through an optional limited-slip differential- a crucial option in any 993. With this 993’s multiple trips back and forth across the Atlantic Ocean, it is safe to say that it has quite a story to tell. The original owner clearly knew what they were doing during ordering and produced a one-of-a-kind 993, in a classic specification that appeals to both the driving enthusiast and someone looking for a convertible to cruise around in. 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera ISSIMI, Inc If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

By the early 1960s, road car production had ceased to be a sideline for Ferrari and was seen as vitally important to the company's future stability. Thus the 250, Ferrari's first volume-produced model, can be seen as critically important, though production of the first of the line - the 250 Europa, built from 1953 to '54 - amounted to fewer than 20. Before the advent of the Europa, Ferrari had built road-going coupés and convertibles in small numbers, usually to special customer order using a sports-racing chassis as the basis. Ghia and Vignale of Turin and Touring of Milan were responsible for bodying many of these but there was no attempt at standardisation for series production and no two cars were alike. The introduction of the 250 Europa heralded a significant change in Ferrari's preferred coachbuilder; whereas previously Vignale had been the most popular carrozzeria among Maranello's customers, from now on Pinin Farina (later 'Pininfarina') would be Ferrari's number one choice, bodying no fewer than 48 out of the 53 Europa/Europa GTs built. Pinin Farina's experiments eventually crystallised in a new Ferrari 250 GT road car that was first displayed publicly at the Geneva Salon in March 1956. However, the Torinese carrozzeria was not yet in a position to cope with the increased workload, resulting in production being entrusted to Carrozzeria Boano after Pinin Farina had completed a handful of prototypes. True series production began with the arrival of Pininfarina's 'notch back' Coupé on the 250 GT chassis, some 353 of which were built between 1958 and 1960 within the sequence '0841' to '2081'. However, the relatively small scale of production meant that cars could still be ordered with subtle variations according to customer choice, as well as enabling a handful of show cars and 'specials' to be constructed on the 250 GT chassis. A number of important developments occurred during 250 GT production: the original Colombo-designed 128C 3.0-litre engine being superseded by the twin-distributor 128D, which in turn was supplanted in 1960 by the outside-plug 128F engine which did away with its predecessor's Siamesed inlets in favour of six separate ports. On the chassis side, four-wheel disc brakes arrived late in 1959 and a four-speeds-plus-overdrive gearbox the following year, the former at last providing the 250 GT with stopping power to match its speed. More refined and practical than any previous road-going Ferrari, yet retaining the sporting heritage of its predecessors, the 250 GT is a landmark model of immense historical significance. Our car, #1629GT, is a Series 2 produced on December 15, 1959 in an elegant "Nero Tropicale" livery with a "Verde" interior and benefits from the latest evolutions of the type (disc brakes, 128F engine and overdrive). Its first owner was none other than Piero Portaluppi, a great architect of the Italian art deco and rationalist movement to whom we owe many achievements such as the famous Villa Necchi Campiglio in Milan. Our Ferrari 250GT left the Europe for the United States where it remained until its return to the Netherlands in 1982. After a first owner completes a thorough restoration of the car in the expert hands of the great Ferrari specialist Piet Roelofs., it was soon bought by the secretary of the Dutch Ferrari Owners Club. Mr Kraak! It is during this restoration that the choice of the current color is made. We find our Ferrari in various rallies and competitions during all this period. In 2002 #1629GT enters on the French soil and passes between the hands of several collectors, before leaving for Greece a few years. It is “Michele” di Parigi, a great Ferrari connoisseur who will acquire our 250GT on behalf of its current owner in late 2010. Over the years its owner has undertaken regular maintenance and restoration work at Garage Super Sport to keep the car in perfect condition. Fine engine builder Gilbert Tissier has undertaken a total rebuild of the engine for a final result that delighted us during our road tests. The behavior of the car, the flexibility and the melody of the engine are an invitation to travel. An important file of invoices and documents from the period accompanies the car. In this elegant navy blue dress, #1629GT is probably one of the most desirable Ferrari 250GT on the market. 1959 Ferrari 250 GT Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Carrozzeria Ghia created lightweight alloy bodies for only a handful of Alfa Romeo 1900 coupes in the mid-fifties, at a time when the Turin-based design house experienced a creative renaissance, turning out a fascinating array of concept cars, one-offs, and unique production models. Perhaps most unique among these Alfa Romeos is the 1900L Coupe offered here, likely the first of at least nine similarly styled cars that were sometimes badged as Ghia Specials, and the only one built on the model’s long-wheelbase chassis. Giovanni Savonuzzi, the noted automotive stylist behind most of Ghia’s influential mid-century projects, devised the light alloy coachwork for these models, no two of which were exactly alike. Their shared overall design featured curved front bumperettes, bulbous fenders with protruding headlamps, squared wheel-well openings, a wraparound front windscreen that fed into an airy canopy, and delicate rear fender fins. The design seems to work best on the long-wheelbase chassis, which provides greater aesthetic balance and precludes the more awkward proportions of the short-wheelbase models, with their longer front and rear overhangs. As such, this singular example on the lungo chassis stands out as perhaps the most attractive of Savonuzzi’s Ghia-bodied Alfa Romeo coupes. Dispatched to Ghia in April 1954, this Alfa Romeo 1900L received coachwork in Bleu Marino and was delivered three months later to a buyer in New York. While very little is known of the 1900L’s interim history, by 2006 the car was owned by a resident of Sacramento, California, who presented it at the 2006 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Later acquired by a respected dealer on the East Coast, the Alfa Romeo was sold in October 2016 to the previous owner, who retained it until 2024. In addition to being equipped with a rare column-mounted five-speed factory gearbox, the Alfa Romeo retains its numbers-matching type 1306 engine, further enriching the car’s authenticity. Already having benefited from a prior restoration in red paint over gray leather, it was further recommissioned in January 2025. Ideal for collectors of coach-built Alfa Romeos or enthusiasts of Ghia’s seminal design output of the 1950s, this car would make a strong candidate for touring use, while claiming design provenance worthy of museum display or concours exhibition. 1954 Alfa Romeo 1900L Coupe by Ghia RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Perhaps most unique among these Alfa Romeos is the 1900L Coupe offered here, likely the first of at least nine similarly styled cars that were sometimes badged as Ghia Specials, and the only one built on the model’s long-wheelbase chassis. Giovanni Savonuzzi, the noted automotive stylist behind most of Ghia’s influential mid-century projects, devised the light alloy coachwork for these models, no two of which were exactly alike. Their shared overall design featured curved front bumperettes, bulbous fenders with protruding headlamps, squared wheel-well openings, a wraparound front windscreen that fed into an airy canopy, and delicate rear fender fins. The design seems to work best on the long-wheelbase chassis, which provides greater aesthetic balance and precludes the more awkward proportions of the short-wheelbase models, with their longer front and rear overhangs. As such, this singular example on the lungo chassis stands out as perhaps the most attractive of Savonuzzi’s Ghia-bodied Alfa Romeo coupes. Dispatched to Ghia in April 1954, this Alfa Romeo 1900L received coachwork in Bleu Marino and was delivered three months later to a buyer in New York. While very little is known of the 1900L’s interim history, by 2006 the car was owned by a resident of Sacramento, California, who presented it at the 2006 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Later acquired by a respected dealer on the East Coast, the Alfa Romeo was sold in October 2016 to the previous owner, who retained it until 2024. In addition to being equipped with a rare column-mounted five-speed factory gearbox, the Alfa Romeo retains its numbers-matching type 1306 engine, further enriching the car’s authenticity. Already having benefited from a prior restoration in red paint over gray leather, it was further recommissioned in January 2025. Ideal for collectors of coach-built Alfa Romeos or enthusiasts of Ghia’s seminal design output of the 1950s, this car would make a strong candidate for touring use, while claiming design provenance worthy of museum display or concours exhibition.

In October 1987, the Esprit received its first revamp since its initial launch in 1976 and was given the project codename ‘X180’. This design was the work of Peter Stevens, who was also responsible for the styling of the Lotus Elan M100 and McLaren F1. Whilst it retained the basic creativity behind the original Giorgetto Giugiaro design, it featured rounder, smoother lines, which helped to reduce the drag coefficient to only 0.33. It was, in essence, a restyled bodyshell on an established, proven chassis and displayed ‘Turbo’ badges behind the line where the door shut. At the rear, there was an aerodynamically profiled under tray/spoiler to remove hot air from the engine compartment and cool the brakes. Mechanically, the X180 differed little from its predecessor, the Esprit Turbo HC, with its 2,174cc, 16-valve, double overhead cam, Lotus 910 engine, developing the same 215bhp, and 220ft/lbs of torque. One important change was the gearbox with the Citroen/Maserati 5-speed unit being replaced by that from the Renault Alpine GTA saloon, which provided slightly higher gear ratios. Other improvements, following a redesign of the interior, included increased headroom and legroom, and a wider footwell. The X180 was a financial success, with 1,058 examples being built in 1988, a figure that would never be repeated. Having been laid up since circa 2015, the decision was taken to strip the car back to its bare bones, and restore it to a very high standard. The engine was removed, stripped and checked, but was found to have no issues, so it was cleaned, carefully rebuilt, and now sits unmarked in the engine bay topped with additional electric cooling fans to aid air flow. It's been resprayed in its original black and appears to be unmarked. The interior has also seen a thorough refresh with new carpets and the cream leather seats have been re-connollised and now look particularly inviting. The suspension has benefitted from the same attention to detail with all necessary parts replaced or refurbished, finished off with freshly painted wheels and new tyres all round. The car is supplied with some service history, plenty of invoices and a large photo album cataloguing the restoration. Since then, it has been used sparingly, taken to car shows and enjoyed on fine days. An MOT was completed on 11th March 2024 with 'No Advisories'.

The Ferrari 360 Modena was introduced in spring of 1999 as the successor to the Ferrari F355 and like its predecessor is powered by a V8 mid-engine with now 3.6 litre capacity and 400 hp. Performance was transmitted either via a traditional 6 speed manual gearbox or the semi-automatic box called F1 which was able to change gears in 150 milliseconds. From 2000 the coupe, called Modena, was joined by the Spider which boasted a electric fully disappearing soft stop. Our example offered, with its F1 gearbox, is a Swiss delivery and was handed over to its first owner on the 13th July 2001 through Automobile Németh AG in the Bernese Hinterkappelen. Over 200’000 Swiss francs had to be paid for the Maranello beauty with the owner then receiving an exciting and luxurious sports car with bags of power. In August 2005, the Ferrari, with 15’000 kilometres driven, was taken over by the 2nd and so far last owner. He thoroughly enjoyed his spider over the following 18 years and used it for numerous fair-weather outings. In November 2023 the Ferrari was de-registered but shortly after, at 37’965 kilometres, received a major service including a change of the cambelt. With now 38’160 kilometres, a complete service booklet and a complete document folder, this gorgeous 360 Spider is in very good and carefully maintained original condition. The most recent MOT was completed in March 2022 but for a Swiss buyer the car will be freshly MOT’d as a matter of course. 2001 Ferrari 360 Spider Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Car Barn are pleased to offer for sale this 1958 190SL Convertible It is finished in cream with red leather interior. The car was sold to the current owner by ourselves in 2005 and it has been used very sparingly in that time, having only covered 3000 miles in the last 20 years! We believe the car had a restoration when it had covered 73000 although we don't have documentation confirming this. Presently the car is offered in a good condition with plenty of patina and character. The car will also be supplied with a matching original hardtop (Not pictured) Jonathon's comments: 'Mercedes Benz in the 1950s were making some of the best cars in the world, and these were some of the best sports car.

The car was sold to the current owner by ourselves in 2005 and it has been used very sparingly in that time, having only covered 3000 miles in the last 20 years! We believe the car had a restoration when it had covered 73000 although we don't have documentation confirming this. Presently the car is offered in a good condition with plenty of patina and character. The car will also be supplied with a matching original hardtop (Not pictured) Jonathon's comments: 'Mercedes Benz in the 1950s were making some of the best cars in the world, and these were some of the best sports car. You can really tell the high level of engineering that went into these vehicles. They are perfectly usable cars still to this day and they still have a good parts supply' Other Cars from Car Barn 1991-Ferrari-348-01.webp 1991-Ferrari-348-02.webp 1991-Ferrari-348-20.webp 1991-Ferrari-348-01.webp 1/20 1991 Ferrari 348 Car Barn United Kingdom 1993-Lotus-Carlton-01.webp 1993-Lotus-Carlton-02.webp 1993-Lotus-Carlton-20.webp 1993-Lotus-Carlton-01.webp 1/20 1993 Lotus Carlton Car Barn United Kingdom 1982-Mercedes-Benz-380SL-01.webp 1982-Mercedes-Benz-380SL-02.webp 1982-Mercedes-Benz-380SL-20.webp 1982-Mercedes-Benz-380SL-01.webp 1/20 1982 Mercedes-Benz 380SL Car Barn United Kingdom Last Featured Cars 1992-Subaru-SVX-01.webp 1992-Subaru-SVX-02.webp 1992-Subaru-SVX-10.webp 1992-Subaru-SVX-01.webp 1/10 1992 Subaru SVX DLS Automobile Germany 1990-Porsche-911-964-Carrera-RS-IROC-Evocation-01.webp 1990-Porsche-911-964-Carrera-RS-IROC-Evocation-02.webp 1990-Porsche-911-964-Carrera-RS-IROC-Evocation-15.webp 1990-Porsche-911-964-Carrera-RS-IROC-Evocation-01.webp 1/15 1990 Porsche 911 964 Carrera RS IROC Evocation Classic Connection United Kingdom 1964-Alfa-Rome-TZ-01.jpg 1964-Alfa-Rome-TZ-02.jpg 1964-Alfa-Rome-TZ-20.jpg 1964-Alfa-Rome-TZ-01.jpg 1/20 1964 Alfa Romeo TZ Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH Switzerland
