Thanks to its rare specification and its extensive period competition history in the hands of well-known privateers on both sides of the Atlantic, chassis number 2177 GT is fascinatingexample of Ferrari’s 250 GT Short Wheelbase. This legendary model was offered in either steel-bodied Lusso spec or as the lighter, more powerful, alloy-bodied Competizione. In reality, however, it was common for buyers to ‘mix and match’ between the two, in order to create a bespoke car that was tailored to their requirements – and that’s exactly what happened with 2177 GT. Its chassis was sent to Carrozzeria Scaglietti on 6 September 1960 so that it could receive its hand-crafted steel bodywork, plus lightweight alloy doors and boot lid. The V12 engine – numero interno 612F – was completed on 25 October and dyno-tested two days later. The results are noted in the build sheet and show that it produced an impressive 243bhp at 7500rpm. The car was also fitted with stiffer springs front and rear, the Competizione ribbed gearbox, a competition exhaust, and brackets to accept a quick-lift jack. From the widespread use of Competizione features, it’s clear that 2177 GT was intended from the outset to go motor racing, and its rear-axle ratio of 8/32 was well suited to hillclimb use. On 29 October 1960, the SWB was delivered to its first owner – a Mr Zimmerman in Switzerland. The supplying dealership was Italauto SA in Lausanne, which was owned by former racing driver Emmanuel ‘Toulo’ de Graffenried. It’s said that the Swiss hillclimb fraternity preferred the steel body because it was harder-wearing and easier to repair than aluminium. Zimmerman kept 2177 GT until 1962, when he sold it to Armand Boller. Geneva-based Boller was a banker and gentleman racer, and entered the Short Wheelbase for the famous Ollon-Villars hillclimb on 25 August. The event was a round of that year’s European Mountain Championship, and Boller finished fifth in class. In early 1963, Boller acquired a 250 GTO and raced his latest Ferrari under the banner of Scuderia Filipinetti. Georges Filipinetti was a key figure on the European Ferrari scene at that time, and his competition cars were driven by the likes of Herbert Müller and future Formula 1 star Jo Siffert. Boller was part of that tight-knit group and it’s thought that Siffert might have had at least one outing in 2177 GT in a Swiss event, but so far it has not been possible to prove this theory. He is, however, mentioned in the Ferrari service sheet. After Boller bought the GTO, his Short Wheelbase was sold to Walter Ringgenberg. A Ferrari enthusiast who had previously owned an alloy-bodied 250 GT Short Wheelbase Competizione (1771 GT) as well as a 250 GT ‘Tour de France’, Ringgenberg was a hotelier and restaurateur from Bern. A personal friend of Ferry Porsche, he had raced a 356 during the 1950s. By the time he bought 2177 GT, Ringgenberg had mostly given up circuit racing in favour ofhillclimb events, and he entered 2177GT in three events during 1964. In May, he finished third in class at Mitholz-Kandersteg, and went one better at Sierre-Crans-Montana in August. That event was part of the International Championship for GT Manufacturers and attracted a strong entry. Pierre Sudan won the 3-litre class in his GTO, but Ringgenberg was second in class – a superb result in such a high-profile hillclimb. Ringgenberg ended his season with an appearance at Eigental, and in 1966 he sold the Short Wheelbase to a new owner in the US – racing driver, entrepreneur and car dealer Bob Grossman – via the Swiss dealership owned by Paul Blancpain and Jo Siffert. According to Ferrari historian Marcel Massini, Grossman raced 2177 GT at the Mount Equinox hillclimb in 1966. After spending some time in Grossman’s fleet, the SWB was sold to fellow racing driver Dudley Cunningham the following year, to sit alongside his ex-works Ferrari 340 MM (0322AM). Cunningham kept 2177 GT until 1975, racing it in SCCA events during the early years of his ownership. He sold it – via an advert that claimed it to be ‘ex-Jo Siffert’ – to the Ferrari historian and author Jim Riff, who was based in Illinois. Riff then set about having 2177 GT restored. The process included an engine rebuild and stripping the Ferrari to bare metal, which showed a remarkable lack of accident damage for a car that had been used in competition. When it was finished, 2177 GT finished second in class at the Ferrari Club of America’s concours in St Louis, having been driven there from Chicago by Jim in the pouring rain! During Riff’s ownership, the Short Wheelbase was often entered for concours events, and in 1985 he also raced it in a historic event at Elkhart Lake. That same year, 2177 GT appeared on the cover of Ken Gross’s book Ferrari 250 GT SWB. Riff sold the car in 1986 to California-based Tom Byrnes, who raced it in the Monterey Historics weekend at Laguna Seca in 1987 and 1989. Its next custodians were Phillipe Brecht and then Martin Van Doorne, who had the Short Wheelbase restored in 1994-95. Van Doorne later displayed 2177 GT at Ferrari’s 50th anniversary event in Rome and Maranello, before selling it to Dr Peter Baumberger – a Geneva-based watchmaker and co-founder of the Swiss Ferrari Club. In 1999, the Short Wheelbase was acquired by Austrian Jean-Robert Grellet, who had it repainted yellow and went on to regularly enter it for events such as the Ennstal Classic, the Giro di Sicilia Targa Florio Revival, and the Grand Prix Montreaux. Ferrari also invited 2177 GT to be part of its 70th anniversary celebrations at its Fiorano test track. Thanks to its incredible versatility as a competition car that can also be driven comfortably on the road, there are those who covet the Short Wheelbase above even the GTO. With its Swiss competition history, its rare ‘Semi-Comp’ specification and its fascinating cast of characters, 2177 GT was very much part of this legendary period in Ferrari history. 1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Semi-Competition The Classic Motor Hub If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Among approximately 80 examples of the BMW 635CSi prepared in period for Group A competition, very few carry the historical weight of chassis number E24 RA2-79 offered here. Built and campaigned by famed race team Schnitzer Motorsport, this car is one of a reported 10 Works machines and also claimed victory in the 1986 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps. That final of three wins in the Belgian enduro for the 635CSi model was arguably the most significant. This very car climbed from 9th on the grid to vanquish fierce competition from rival marques Ford, Volvo, and Rover, only months prior to the introduction of the E30-generation M3. The list of drivers who took the wheel of E24 RA2-79 include Gerhard Berger (10-time Formula 1 race winner), Emanuele Pirro (five 24 Hour of Le Mans victories), Roberto Ravaglia (scored two podiums aboard this car to chalk the first of two European Touring Car Championship titles), and the Spa-Francorchamps-winning crew of Dieter Quester, Thierry Tassin, and Altfrid Heger. After nine ETCC appearances in 1986—beautifully documented by Schnitzer Motorsport Archive timing sheets, engineering notes, and setup pages—this car ended its affiliation with the Works team following a failure to finish a 1000-kilometre race at Bathurst, Australia. It was subsequently bought by privateer Yvan Tapy and purchased by the consigning owner in June 2017. The BMW was restored, maintained, and race prepared by Graber Sportgarage of Toffen, Switzerland between 2017 and 2024 before Pastrolli Classic Cars in Maranello, Italy completed an engine rebuild and fitment of a new clutch in late 2025. Invoices on file for the combined work exceed €250,000. Please note, the car is currently fitted with a correct-type replacement engine but is accompanied by its original unit. The 635CSi presents in its unmistakable, period-correct “Genuine BMW Parts” livery and has recently competed at the Spa Classic and Monza Revival. Supplied with an FIA Historic Technical Passport valid until the end of 2026, this most special of Group A racers boasts astonishing provenance and is eligible for a variety of historic motorsport series. 1986 BMW 635CSi Group A RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

During the 1960s Alfa Romeo, once again, had a strong presence in international motorsports. Starting in 1960 with competition variants of their Giulietta and Giulia series, they then introduced more track capable cars including the TZ1 and TZ2 which were developed and supplied through Autodelta, soon to become Alfa Romeo’s competition division. Alfa Romeo and Autodelta also saw value for the marque if they could improve results in Touring car racing which was gaining worldwide popularity. By late 1964 Alfa Romeo needed a new car to compete with the light and powerful Lotus Cortina, BMW’s and large engined American cars. The newly introduced 105 Series Giulia Sprint GT Bertone Coupe provided that platform to build on. What eventuated was the creation of an Alfa Romeo that would become one of the most successful racing cars for the marque and make three letters symbolise a racing legend – GTA. The ‘A’ in GTA standing for Alleggerita, Italian for lightened. To reduce weight, extensive changes were made to the Sprint GT body, this included replacing almost all the steel outer panels with an exotic alloy, Peraluman 25, which is made up of Aluminium, Magnesium, Manganese and Zinc. These super light panels were mostly attached to the GTs steel frame with the identifying rivets. Other inner sections of the chassis were replaced with alloy and many small components were replaced by lighter and thinner items. Indeed, the 1965 parts catalogue lists 357 specific GTA parts. Campagnolo produced Magnesium alloy wheels were adopted along with the Autodelta developed TZ2 twin plug cylinder head and larger 45mm DCOE Webers. Magnesium castings were used for the cam cover, full upper and lower sump sections, bellhousing, and rear gearbox housing. Perspex side and rear windows were used, a different radiator which allowed space for an effective engine oil cooler was added and Autodelta developed an improved method of locating the rear axle, known as a ‘sliding block’. All the above when combined with light weight seats and interior trim reduced the GTA to a homologated dry weight of only 745kg, more than 200kg lighter than the Sprint GT. To satisfy FIA homologation requirements, officially 500, 1600cc GTA’s were produced by Alfa Romeo which included 50 RHD cars, all of which were suitable for road use but at a huge premium over the standard Sprint GT. Only a small number, believed to be less than 30 of these GTA’s were then sent to Autodelta to be modified into race cars, these are known as the Corsa cars. These were mostly for Alfa Romeo’s own race team but a very limited number were built for ‘special’ customers, often with existing business connections and proven race team history. It is believed less than 10 of the total 50 RHD GTA’s were prepared by Autodelta with most going to customers in the USA as they preferred the RHD cars for their tracks. GTA’s were extremely successful in the European Touring Car Championship from 1966 to 1969 and equally successful in the USA winning the 1966 Trans-Am outright and the B-Sedan championship as late as 1970 with Aussie Horst Kwech doing much of the steering. This significant racing success was repeated in many countries, including Australia, in Touring car events between 1965 and 1970. The car we have on offer is AR 752561. We are delighted to offer to market one of the most significant of all GTA’s. This car is the second and only RHD Corsa GTA campaigned by Alec Mildren’s race team. The car was produced by Alfa Romeo in mid-1965 and eventually sold to Alec Mildren in September 1966 after being race prepared by Autodelta to FIA Group 2 Touring car specs. The car arrived in Australia in late 1966 and was immediately converted by Mildren’s mechanics to suit CAMS Improved Production Touring Car rules, which included changing from Dunlop to ATE brakes. The car went to work soon after its arrival with Frank Gardner being the regular driver while he was in Australia for the 1966/67 Summer and Tasman Series. After Franks return to the UK, Alec’s local young driver, Kevin Bartlett, became this car’s regular steerer. Some significant results from this period include. Dec 1966 Warwick Farm – 3rd Frank Gardner Feb 1967 Warwick Farm – 1st Outright and lap record. Frank Gardner Mar 1967 Longford Tasmania – 1st Frank Gardner Mar 1967 Bathurst – 1st Outright and lap record. Kevin Bartlett Apr 1967 Surfers Paradise – 1st Kevin Bartlett Jun 1967 Lakeside – 3rd Kevin Bartlett Jul 1967 Warwick Farm – 2nd Kevin Bartlett Of these results one of the most significant must be the overall victory by Kevin in the 2-part Touring car race held at Bathurst over the Easter weekend in 1967. With the main opposition coming from Bob Jane in his latest Trans-Am prepared Mustang, Kevin not only prevailed but lowered the up to 2 litre Touring car record by over 9 seconds, an incredible achievement. At this same meeting Kevin also became the first driver to lap the Bathurst circuit at over 100mph average speed in Mildren’s Brabham open wheeler. Another impressive event for Kevin in this car was to qualify 5th fastest for the 1967 Surfers Paradise 12-hour race. He was by far the quickest Touring car, and only surpassed by a Lola T70, a Ferrari 250LM, a Porsche 906 and a Lotus 26R. He was also ahead of a Shelby Cobra and many other significant sports cars. In the race Kevin quickly passed the Lotus but eventually a mechanical failure side lined the GTA when running in 4th place overall. To this day Kevin has a particular affection for the car, in 2017 he requested it be made available at the Supercars Bathurst 1000 meeting where he and some other Bathurst race winners were being inducted into the Hall of Fame. This was the last time, to date, that he has driven the car. From 1968 to 1972 the car was campaigned by John French, in red and white or red and black livery, and mostly in Queensland. In John’s capable hands the car was raced very successfully and all the ‘wheels in the air’ photos of this car are with ‘Frenchy’ doing the steering. During this period the car became progressively modified from the original in line with rule changes and to keep pace with mostly V8 opposition. In 1972 this GTA was sold to Brian Foley, then an Alfa Romeo dealer in Parramatta who had already imported and campaigned a GTAm in the Improved Production and Sports Sedan category. With the CAMS rule changes and the introduction of the Sports Sedan category where almost unlimited modifications were allowed, Brian saw the potential of the lighter GTA as a starting point to build an ultra-light weight Alfa Romeo Sports Sedan. The car was put through a monumental transformation, with all the original suspension & brakes removed, all the interior completely stripped out and weight reduced everywhere possible. The car was then fitted with Bowin open wheeler, Formula 2/5000, adjustable tubular suspension, coil-overs and brakes, new extra wide fibreglass guard flares allowed 11” front & 13” wide rear Revolution wheels. A fuel injected, narrow angle, 2.1 litre Alfa Romeo engine with around 230 hp was fitted, other fibreglass panels all helping to reduce the cars dry weight to just over 600kg. Painted in Chesterfield colours and in Brian’s extremely capable hands his light weight Alfa was very competitive particularly on the shorter tracks like Warwick Farm, Oran Park, Amaroo Park and Lakeside, always mixing it with the 6 Litre V8’s and usually ahead of the Porsches. Probably Brians most significant outright win was in the wet 1973 Singapore GP touring car race where he prevailed against serious opposition from a number of European factory teams. Later that year after a shunt at Oran Park due to a suspension component failure, Brian had the car repaired and sold it to Peter Brown from Canberra. Peter then passed the car on to Gordon Stevenson from Perth, the car then commencing another 10 years of racing in WA Sports Sedan events with several local owners. During this race period in the West the car ran with various engine combinations including, turbo charged Alfa Romeo, supercharged Alfa Romeo, possibly a Rover V8 and a PP Mazda rotary. The car remained mostly in WA from the late 70s until 2006 when it was purchased by the present NSW based owner. This car has never been road registered anywhere or at any time, it has always been a track car only and probably holds a record for having the longest original and continuous racing career by any GTA, at over 20 years. The last owner of this car in Perth, Andrew Murray, commenced the huge task of returning it from the heavily modified Sports Sedan it had become back into it’s original 1967 Alec Mildren period specifications, this task was then completed by the present owner in 2009. Under the present owners watch the bodywork and paint were restored by renowned Alfa Romeo expert Tim Doyle from Zoo Autocraft and the mechanical rebuild was undertaken by Stuart Randall and Steve Perkins. Stuart having been one of Mildren’s race mechanics during the 60s and both Stuart and Steve being ex Foley race mechanics from the early 70s. Since the car was returned to the original specs and restored it has been demonstrated and raced sparingly by the present owner at many historic race meetings on the East coast. During this restoration it was decided to save the period correct, GTA numbered block from possible driver error and damage and fit a 1750 block and bottom end but with a period correct 1600 GTA twin plug head. The correct 1600 GTA block and crankshaft will accompany the car. The main items currently on this car that were originally fitted when shipped from Autodelta are the chassis, the alloy roof, rear panel, race front seats, both doors and the boot lid. The nose panel, bonnet and four guards have been replaced with alloy panels from Milan, as the originals were either heavily modified, damaged or lost. All the suspension and brakes have been correctly replaced and returned to the Mildren period specs under the guidance of Stuart Randall, this spec being slightly different to that supplied by Autodelta. The gearbox is a close ratio lightened Autodelta unit as is the LSD and the sliding block. All the period correct Autodelta magnesium castings are fitted, including a mid-depth sump, these are not the modern reproduction items. The head is period correct 1600 GTA, the 45 DCOE14 Webers, the Marelli distributor, the radiator, oil cooler are all period correct. The roll cage is of modern spec with the rear half welded in, but the front half bolted in and therefore easily removed. The car presently sits on a set of originally supplied magnesium Campagnolo wheels and period correct Dunlop race tyres, these are only used for display purposes. A newer set of magnesium Campagnolo wheels suitable for high-speed work with sticky modern tyres will accompany the car, these are the ones the present owner has been using on track and are in excellent condition. Some other major items that will go with the car include the Foley era Fibreglass panels, 4 very wide guards and the bonnet, all the Bowin Formula 2/5000 adjustable tubular suspension arms and the adjustable coil over units. Also accompanying the car are the 4 wide Revolution alloy race wheels. There are many other smaller items, including an original and numbered set of exhaust manifold pipes. In preparation for the sale, the 1750 twin plug engine was removed, in mid-2022 and sent to Alfa expert and master engine builder Vince Sharp at Pace Engineering in Melbourne. Vince did a complete refresh and rebuild of the engine, this included honing, new bearings, rings, water pump and oil pump. The head was checked and rebuilt with new components. The Carrillo rods, forged pistons, cams, alloy flywheel and race clutch were retained as they were all in good condition. This refreshed engine was refitted to the car in January 2023 along with a new exhaust manifold and a modified GTA exhaust side pipe with a full muffler to aid compliance with noise restrictions at racetracks. The engine has had about one hour of running at a recent track day and will benefit from more running in and a final dyno tune. Over the years the owner has acquired numerous images and items documenting the cars racing in period and these all accompany the car. Unquestionably this is one of the finest examples of an Autodelta prepared 1600 GTA in existence with a fabulous provenance and race history and with all the money already spent. This represents a unique opportunity to purchase for the discerning collector with the ability to compete at the highest levels of historic motorsport. 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA Сlassic Сar Market If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro at Bertone, the 105’s clean and distinctive design made it one of the most attractive small coupes of the 1960s and 70s and the earlier ‘Stepnose’ cars were the first of that body shape and seen as the most desirable. As confirmed by Alfa Romeo our example is an RHD ‘Stepnose’ car delivered in 1969 to London, UK. It still wears it original delivery colour of AR209 ‘Musk’ green. This car has had an engine change at some point to a later 1750 unit providing a useful increase in power and torque over the original. Not much is known about its earlier history, however we know it was in Australia from 1997 and with the 1750 motor in place, and we have a continuous history from that point. The car has always been local to Brisbane in QLD and has had 5 owners in that time. A decent folder of history and invoices accompanies the car with evidence of much expenditure over the last 25 years with little use during that time. The mileage in 2008 was 49,410, in 2012 it was 52,540 and it currently reads just 53,707. Much of this work was focussed on improving performance and handling of the car and that certainly translates to a rewarding experience when driving it. The current owner bought the car around 3 years ago and now needs to part with it due to a change in personal circumstances. During his ownership he has undertaken an extensive amount of work resulting in a car that is a blast to drive and looks the part too. Recent work includes, new wiring loom, updated interior, new battery, reconditioned gearbox, rebuilt steering box, heavy duty Alfaholics sway bar, Aluminium radiator, new Alternator and oil cooler along with rebuilt Weber carbs. The engine benefits from a new crankshaft, bearings and general refresh. To aid steering and handling the car has adjustable upper control arms, rose jointed drop links, lowered suspension with yellow Koni’s and ‘fast road’ springs. It is also fitted with a limited slip diff and in addition the rear upper spring mounts have been reinforced. The gearbox is excellent and a delight to use. Turn the key and the engine fires up to a familiar Alfa growl. Out on the open road this car is just superb with the steering and braking being pin sharp. The induction noise from the race ‘trumpets’ is intoxicating and only adds to the on-road experience. The paint although perfectly presentable from a distance, on close inspection shows areas of blistering due to moisture being in the primer when the topcoats were applied. Areas to the front and rear are fine and the roof too however patches of this blistering are present elsewhere. On the turret there are 2 small dents, however these might be able to be pulled out. The GTA style wheels are from Campagnolo in Italy and are unmarked and like new. The tyres are just fitted and overall, they sit at the right height and look purposeful. Once inside you are greeted by a new GTA style Hellebore steering wheel which looks superb. The dash has a new cover, and the classic gauges present very well. An interior from a later Series One 1750 GTV has been fitted to the car which includes the rare and desirable ‘flying buttress’ seats. They show no signs of rips or tears, and the tan colour works well with the ‘Musk’ green exterior. Although the paint isn’t perfect, this is a sorted car and a driver’s delight which begs to be taken out in the hills for a good blast. The body is solid, and it looks wonderful on the GTA wheels and overall, there is a lot to like about this car. All the stainless steel brightwork is in good order and the car is freshly serviced and ready for its new owner to enjoy 1969 Alfa Romeo 1300 Junior ‘Stepnose’ Сlassic Сar Market If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

By the late 1960s, Nissan had a rather ambitious idea: to build a sports car capable of challenging the elegant Europeans, but without the ruinous price tags or the charming tendency for Italian electrics to self-immolate at inconvenient moments. The result arrived in 1969 in the shape of the now legendary Datsun 240Z — a car that fundamentally changed the world’s perception of Japanese performance cars almost overnight. Beautifully proportioned, mechanically robust and genuinely exciting to drive, the Z proved that Japan was no longer simply observing the sports car market from afar. It had arrived with intent. As the 1970s progressed, however, the world changed. Emissions legislation tightened — particularly in the United States — and buyers increasingly demanded refinement alongside outright performance. Nissan understood this perfectly. Rather than compromise the Z’s spirit, they evolved it. Introduced in 1975, the Datsun 280Z retained all the visual drama and rear-wheel-drive balance of its predecessor, while adding a layer of maturity that transformed it into one of the finest grand touring cars of its era. Power came from the enlarged 2.8-litre inline-six, now equipped with Bosch-derived fuel injection. The result was smoother throttle response, improved reliability and effortless long-distance usability. The raw edges of the early 240Z had been subtly polished away, but crucially, the character remained entirely intact. There was still the impossibly long bonnet. Still the compact rear deck. Still that wonderfully balanced S30 chassis which, decades later, continues to form the basis for everything from historic rally cars to serious racing builds and tasteful restomods alike. What Nissan achieved with the Z-series extended far beyond strong sales figures. These cars established Japan as a credible builder of true driver’s cars and quietly forced Europe to pay attention. The example offered here presents beautifully in Sky Blue and has clearly benefited from careful ownership and proper specialist maintenance throughout its life. Significant servicing was carried out in both 2019 and 2023 by a recognised Z specialist in Germany, ensuring the car remains mechanically correct, dependable and ready to be enjoyed exactly as intended. It is, in many ways, the ideal Z. Usable, charismatic and wonderfully analogue — a car capable of delivering genuine driving pleasure without drama, ego or unnecessary complication. 1976 Datsun 280Z Cool Classic Club If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

We are excited to display this wonderful 1991 Jaguar Sport XJR-S 6.0 at the forthcoming Great British Jaguar Day on Saturday 23rd May 2026. JaguarSport was launched in 1988, a jointly owned company (50/50) by Jaguar and Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR) with the aim to construct hand built and highly tuned Jaguar road cars utilising TWR Le Mans winning experience, development and technology Jaguar had won Le Mans in 1988 with their Group C XJR-9 with TWR and this wonderful publicity created a great marketing opportunity for Jaguar and TWR to combine efforts and construct a limited series of highly developed roadcars to celebrate their success Hand-built at JaguarSport in Kidlington by TWR engineers alongside the XJR-15 and XJ220, a total of 787 XJR-S 6.0 Coupe’s were produced between late 1989 and 1993 with only 115 examples built in RHD. The 6.0 XJR-S model was considerably more expensive than the standard 5.3 V12 Coupe which cost £34,200, the XJR-S being listed at £45,500 that was still approximately half of the contemporary Aston Martin V8 Vantage However the XJR-S was a very different animal to the standard car, its 6.0L V12 produced 318bhp with 357 lb/ft with Zytek engine management and fuel injection mated to a modified Hydramatic GM400 automatic gearbox and Salisbury limited-slip differential. The suspension was extensively developed by TWR with increased coil spring rates and specially tuned XJR-S Bilstein shocks resulting in a potent GT car that handled as well as it looked and performed The wonderfully 80’s styling revisions included subtly aggressive body kit and 16″ ‘Speedline’ wheels thanks to automotive design supremo Peter Stevens and the interior was trimmed by hand in bespoke Connolly Autolux leather Supplied new by Jaguar main agents Taggarts (Glasgow) Ltd on 24th May 1991 to the first owner Mr W.Baillie and finished in striking Signal Red coachwork with Magnolia Connolly hides piped Red Acquired by the second (and long term) owner just eight months later on 27th January 1992 via main agents Appleyard Jaguar, a copy of the original invoice denotes the mileage of 10,658 miles and requests steering wheel and gear lever to be changed, at which point the desirable Nardi wheel was fitted An avid car enthusiast with an eye watering collection of sports cars, many of which were red, and all which were cherished, enjoyed, extensively maintained and professionally stored throughout his ownership The comprehensive historical file documents regular servicing and maintenance throughout his thirty-four year tenure with maintenance entrusted to Appleyard Jaguar throughout the 1990s then specialist servicing thereafter Without doubt one of the most substantial maintenance records we have ever seen for a car of this vintage, interested parties should note the Jaguar benefitted from extensive body and structural restoration works between 2015 by marque specialists Stewart Roden Motors of Scotland.

This Corvette was built in October 1964 and sold by Cone Chevrolet, Anaheim, CA on December 4, 1964. The car was finished from the factory in Goldwood Yellow, trimmed with standard black vinyl interior, and outfitted with the 350 hp 327 V8 and 4-speed manual transmission. The car remained with the first owner in Southern California and was sold to the second owner in 1974 who kept it for 35 years before selling it to the current family owners in 2009. Currently indicating just over 95,000 miles, these miles are reportedly original to the car, consistent with two prior owners and original drivetrain. In 2011 the restoration began a repaint performed in the original Goldwood yellow finish with care given to not repaint the original door inner underside jambs leaving the original yellow paint, weatherstrip, and factory glue to confirm originality. Continuing into 2012, with 87,380 miles indicated, the restoration continued under the direction of Scott Jones, Campbell, CA. The restoration included the purchase of numerous correct parts including new headlight motors, a new 492 date coded Holley 2818 carburetor, date coded 64J 37 amp alternator, new black leather seat covers, new black carpet and insulation, an NOS center console, gauge cluster rebuild, new heater box, new wire harness (including power windows), new radio harness, and the complete restoration of the interior including rechroming the seat hinges, recovering arm rest, new seatbelt webbing and rebuild for buckles, and refinishing interior items. During the restoration, wind lace, gaskets, weatherstripping, rubber grommets, window stops, and other soft items were replaced, the wiper motor was rebuilt, new halogen lights installed, storage compartment board replaced, interior and engine finishes painted, and the engine and transmission removed for rebuilding. While the engine and transmission were out of the car, the engine compartment was refinished, the suspension also refinished, and a power steering rack installed. The engine was rebuilt beginning with hot tanking all parts, machine work, new exhaust seats and valve guides, valve job, guides cut for PC seals, heads surfaced, new valve springs, and new stainless intake and exhaust valves. The block was bored and honed .030 over with 11:1 compression and specs, new cam bearings, crank grind 10/10, comp cam for 350hp, new rod bolts and resized rods, and the rotating assembly balanced. Other engine upgrades included a Melling oil pump, ARP oil pump drive, Cloyes timing chain, Roller tip rockers, and ARP flywheel and clutch bolts. The transmission was also rebuilt including boiling, blasting and surfacing the flywheel, a new Centerforce clutch, pressure plate, new harmonic balancer and throw out hearing, and shift linkage adjustment when the transmission was reinstalled. Numerous other details including zinc plated hardware, powder coating for several components, new fuel pump, rebuilt starter, new water pump, new fasteners, hoses, clamps, and other specific components and hardware to complete the restoration to a very high level. With the restoration completed in 2012, the car returned to Scott Jones annually for fluid changes, various service items, nut and bolt check and torquing, and other items as needed. By 2018 the owner had driven the car 92,098 miles. In 2020 with 93,240 miles recorded, a set of Uniroyal DB Touring AS 215/70 15 redline tires were installed, and a dual plane high speed balance and four-wheel alignment performed. Upgrades to the car during restoration include changing the rear end gearing to 3:55 positraction, adding power steering, knock off wheels, power windows, leather interior, Bilstein shocks all around, rear leaf spring upgrade, and a power radio antenna. 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

History of the Ferrari Boano The 1950s would prove to be a critical decade for the survival of Ferrari. Leading virtually every European competition in their class, besting top competitors at premier racing venues, and garnering world press, Ferrari was at the top of their game. But behind closed doors, the company was struggling to earn the resources they needed to compete against more highly funded establishments who were profiting from sales of production cars. It became critical for Ferrari to fund a series of volume production road cars to appeal to wealthy clientele. Road cars were not only fiscally important, they were important brand ambassadors for the rapidly growing North American market. To meet the high-end market, Ferrari’s cars had to be elegant, understated, and luxurious. Ultimately the first of these volume production road cars, the Europa, would yield only a modest number of examples, but it was an important start. It would take four years before the first refined Ferrari 250 GT road cars would arrive and eventually replace the earlier 250 Europa. By 1954 with the Paris Salon model launch, the 250 GT would come to define the quintessential Ferrari featuring a powerful front mounted Colombo 3-litre V12, elegant body design, and competition inspired interiors. As demand grew, however, Pininfarina output had stalled while building a larger production facility. Unable to supply the volume needed to meet Ferrari demands, Enzo Ferrari moved the project to Boano, who agreed to take on the line after only a few Pininfarina prototypes had been built. Mario Boano, formerly a Ghia designer, had opened his facility with the assistance of his son-in-law Ezio Ellena with production beginning in 1956 at the dedicated facility. Though pressed for time, Boano diligently followed the signature Pininfarina design, but cleverly lowered the beltline and reduced the rear fender haunch, lowering the roof line. The “low roof” designation would distinguish these cars but also become a key feature highly influencing the later Super America Ferraris. Under Boano's leadership and construction, approximately 80 cars were built. before Ellena became the primary builder for this series concluding with car #0675GT. History of this Ferrari Boano This beautifully restored Boano is accompanied by a binder of copious factory documentation, letters, and reference information supporting the matching numbers engine and history since it was completed on December 7t, 1956. According to Ferrari factory documentation and a 2019 Massini report, #0581 was completed at the factory and delivered to the first owner Guido Settepassi, a silversmith and resident of Florence, Italy. Remaining in Italy for the first year of ownership and returning to the factory for service, the car was sold to the second owner in 1958, Giorgio Billi, ATS Automobili principal. Under Billi’s ownership Ferrari overhauled the engine, clutch, shock absorbers, and brakes, and updated the gearbox with a new unit installed at Ferrari on March 7, 1959, and recorded with internal number 140. Still under Billi’s ownership, the car remained in Florence until it was subsequently imported to the US in the late 1960s. Supported by letters from Ferrari addressed to the Oregon based owner as early as 1968, by the 1970s Edward Lond, Seattle, WA had become the owner as documentation in the binder includes correspondence with Phil Hill, who returned a letter of inquiry replying with the address for Juan M. Fangio to confirm his possible ownership of this car. The car remained primarily on the West Coast, when, in 1984, it was purchased by Robert Passmore, also a resident of Washington state. Passmore kept the car in dry storage for the next three decades until it was delivered to Butch Dennison’s shop in 2018 where it was mechanically recommissioned. The current owner purchased this car shortly after the mechanical recommissioning was completed at Dennison’s shop in 2019. With passion, resources, and access to some of the best Ferrari restoration experts in the world, the current owner embarked on a comprehensive cost no object five-year ground-up restoration addressing every component, feature, mechanical detail, and cosmetic aspect of this Ferrari. Experts at AVC Sport Racing fully disassembled the car, and the body was stripped to bare metal addressing all aspects including fit and finish from top to bottom, selecting a stunning cream exterior finish and red leather interior to complete the car. Over 600 hours were spent reconditioning, restoring, and locating authentic components for the restoration which was comprehensively documented including over 500 photos and nearly 100 pages of invoices, parts purchase records, and detailed notes covering the history and restoration services performed on this beautifully presented Boano. In addition to the restoration documentation, a binder containing reference information on the history includes highlights such as the 2019 Massini report, letters from former owners to the Ferrari factory, period photos of the car from 1973 when finished in silver over black, Ferrari factory build/origin paperwork, English translations of Ferrari service work performed on the car, handwritten notes documenting the history of ownership including phone numbers and locations, and the original signed correspondence letter returned from Phil Hill. Current Condition and Presentation Today, this matching numbers Ferrari 250GT Boano presents as a superb example of the rare and distinctive “low roof” Boano design, combining exceptional documentation and premier restoration artistry. The paintwork was done to very high standards with excellent gloss and depth, a challenge in any color, but beautifully rendered in this elegant vintage cream color. The body is beautifully formed and displays excellent panel fit with crisp closures to the hood, trunk, and doors. The chrome bumpers, Marchal headlamps, Carello headlight trim, and exterior lighting are in excellent condition, including correct Securit brand etching on the glass, correct fog lamps nestled in the grille opening, delicately shaped door handles, and “250 Granturismo” script lettering for the trunk lid. The body design is pure and clean, void of any fussy trim that dominates other brands of the same era. The body contours are gracefully softened in the Boano design, while the distinctive low roof line creates a powerful stance. A set of perfectly finished 16” Borrani wire wheels and dual ear “Carlo Borrani Milano SPA” knockoffs are the perfect performance accent, shod with 185 VR 16 Pirelli Cinturato tires positioned against the large cast aluminum brake drums, giving the wheel design a perfect profile signature. The interior is beautifully finished and handsomely trimmed, displaying high quality workmanship and a consistently fresh appearance throughout. The red leather, red carpeting, and door panels have been expertly crafted accented against the darker red dash and upper door trim. The seats are authentically constructed with correct foam, perimeter piping, and accurate pleat lines. The dashboard is laid out with beautifully finished Veglia instrumentation and supporting gauges nestled inside the wide instrument panel. The instruments feature high contrast dial faces, crisp lettering, and correct needles. The interior finishes are heightened by a rich wood rimmed flat spoked Nardi steering wheel with a yellow Ferrari center emblem. The interior effect is both elegant and performance oriented, capturing driver and passenger with distinct visual accents and vintage appeal. Finishing off the interior, the rich red carpets and light toned headliner give an open-air feeling to the space, further enhanced by the wraparound rear glass, gently curved windshield, and uninterrupted large side glass. Most importantly, the interior seating room is spacious even for taller drivers, a desirable feature in the 250 GT series. The trunk has been restored using high quality materials, lined with matching red carpeting and binding. A full-sized spare tire with Borrani wire wheel is stowed on the passenger side and a large tool set is rolled with leather straps containing an impressive array of tools. Under the hood, the original matching number V12 engine has been faithfully restored to a very high standard. Both the engine and engine compartment are beautifully detailed, accurately refinished, and correct in presentation. The engine finishes and textures are factory correct including the crackled black Ferrari cam cover castings and associated mechanical components. Numerous correct details include original specification hardware, proper fasteners, correct triple downdraft Weber carburetors, tufted black hood insulation padding, and distinctive yellow fuel lines. The underside of the car reflects a high level of attention to detail, consistent with efforts performed in the engine compartment. Finishes on the brakes, engine castings, and hardware are very accurate with very little evidence of use. There are no areas of structural compromise evident in the floor pan or suspension mounting points. Entering the car, the seating position is comfortable and spacious. The thin A-pillars and expansive glass offer clear views of the front and rear of the car, while the rear glass wraps around, inviting daylight into the interior adding to the open cockpit feel. The car starts easily and warms up with a smooth idle and crisp throttle response. Once at speed, the engine pulls strong, making very good power over a wide RPM range. Acceleration is brisk, understandably so as this is the same engine that powered so many of Ferrari's top competition cars of this era. The four-speed gearbox shifts smoothly, with excellent synchros, both warm and cold. The four-wheel drum brakes are effective, pulling the car down progressively even from higher speeds. Delightfully balanced and remarkably nimble, this low-roof Boano can be driven on Ferrari club gatherings, vintage tours, and participate in numerous world class concours events. In addition to the copious notes contained in the reference binder accompanying this car, this Boano is accompanied by a set of tools and tool roll, a full sized spare tire with Borrani wire wheel, a car cover, and a Ferrari 250/GT Service and Maintenance book compiled by Jim Riff. This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a rare, matching numbers, beautifully restored Ferrari 250 GT Boano. Benefitting from a recent premier restoration with minimal miles since completion, this rare Ferrari exemplifies the earliest refined road cars that set the world standard not just for Ferraris. but for all sports cars in this era. This Ferrari 250GT is ready to deliver the history, excellence, and performance that will continue to capture the hearts of current and future Ferrari enthusiasts for decades to come. 1956 Ferrari 250GT "Low Roof" Boano Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
