  • 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera

    This 1996 Porsche 911 Cabriolet is a special example finished in the stunning shade of Speed Yellow- one of the best colors on this generation of 911. With just 53,103 miles on the odometer, this 993 is in exceptional condition and features a few unique “Z-Code” Special Wishes options. The striking Speed Yellow paint is paired with a black fabric soft top and black finish Carrera script along the rear decklid wich is also equipped with an electrically deployable rear wing. A set of 17” Cup wheels are fitted with Porsche Crest wheel caps and are wrapped in a set of Michelin Pilot Sport tires. On the inside, black leather covers the seats and door cards, and both front seats are equipped with full power adjustment. What separates this 993 from other Carrera Cabriolets is the stunning Special Wishes options on the interior. To match the striking Speed Yellow on the exterior, the original owner specified Speed Yellow leather accents on the handbrake, shifter, and shift boot and the leather-wrapped gauge surrounds. Additionally, Speed Yellow seatbelts were optioned from the factory. These combine to make a particularly special feeling interior and likely a one-of-a-kind specification. 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. This engine is paired with a 6-speed manual Getrag gearbox with Porsche’s famous floor-hinged pedals. The 993 is the perfect sports car for enthusiasts looking for a classic driving experience paired with modern performance and reliability. This Carrera Cabriolet, in its appealing color combination and numerous Special Wishes options, will stand out in the sea of grey and black 911s and will be a great conversation piece at any PCA event. 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera ISSIMI, Inc If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1973 Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV

    Starting life as a US-Specification 1750 GTV finished in Rosso Alfa, this car is a magnificent testament to the vision and persistence of its owner, who built it over a six year period as the ultimate roadgoing Giulia. Every aspect of the car was built or rebuilt with exceptional attention to detail and without any expense spared and the result is nothing short of spectacular. Prior to the restoration, the car was a solid Texas and California fast-road car with a stripped interior, but the previous owner wanted to take the car as far as he possibly could. During the restoration, which spanned the 2017 to 2022 period, the car was fitted with the 1969 homologation-type flares from Alfaholics, as well as GTAm-style wheels and Cibie rally lights up front. The quality of the components throughout the car is first-rate, with countless Alfaholics bits, as well as paintwork by multiple-time Pebble Beach Concours winner Charlie Potts, and engine by well-known race motor builder Terry Tinney. The interior is exceptionally simple aesthetically but checks all of the boxes you would want in a classic car. A pair of classic-looking sport seats are upholstered in a mix of leather and Alcantara and are fitted with Sabelt 4-point harnesses. Behind them, the rear seat has been removed, and in its place sits a parcel shelf with a chrome fire extinguisher and a rear half cage painted to match the car’s exterior. Sitting in front of the driver are a pair of large, clear Jaeger instruments, and the classic Alfa-Romeo shifter comes straight out of the dashboard, falling perfectly to hand. The engine was fully balanced and blueprinted, using JE-Spruell pistons and Carillo connecting rods, nitrided crankshaft, and was built up to 1825cc. It employs MSD ignition and dual 45mm Weber carburetors fed by a 10-gallon ATL fuel cell with Monza filler. The head was ported and matched to both the intake and exhaust manifolds. To increase dependability, a new lightweight starter was fitted and a serpentine belt conversion was performed. Darstan tubular headers were installed and paired to a side exit exhaust, just like what would have been found on a real GTAm. Heavy duty engine mounts from Alfaholics were fitted, as well as aluminum carburetor supports. The engine was dyno-tested and made 168 hp at 7,100 RPM. The torque peaked at 6,300 RPM at 135 foot-pounds but more than 89% of that figure is available between 4,000 RPM and 7,200 RPM. Under current ownership, the car has undergone significant servicing with Issimi Mechanica that included new JE pistons, new spark plugs, numerous new gaskets, a throttle pedal recalibration, and an adjustment of the valve lash. Additionally, the car was entirely re-wired by an aerospace engineer, solving one of the most notorious issues with Italian cars of this era. Additional upgrades included seam welding the car in the engine compartment, as well as the addition of an Alfaholics chassis leg stiffening kit. The front suspension crossmember was reinforced, as were the steering box mounting points. In the rear, an Alfaholics race differential was fitted with improved cooling and a Limited Slip Differential. Other Alfaholics suspension parts include adjustable suspension (springs and dampers), dropped spindles, 28mm sway bar, adjustable caster rods, polyurethane camber top joint bushings, rose jointed track rod kit, quick steering arms, drilled trailing arms, aluminum T bar, billet steering box (necessary because of the of suspension and enhanced grip provided by the wide wheels and tires). The undercarriage was painted in 2-part epoxy and then sprayed with black truck bedliner to increase durability and reduce the chances of rust. The result of this effort is a well-resolved car that is not a race car, but is instead the ultimate weekend toy, one which is tractable and civilized enough to use on the road while being an order of magnitude more thrilling (to drive and to look at) than a standard Giulia GT or GTV. It has been shown to great effect at a number of Northern California events including the Monterey Kickoff, Hillsborough and Niello Concours, and many more. It has covered more than 1,000 miles of shakedown and is accordingly well-resolved. The car is extensively documented with invoices and other paperwork from the build such as engine setup information, torque and alignment specifications, and a binder summarizing the build and depicting the paint and bodywork in progress. 1973 Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV ISSIMI, Inc If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1953 Alfa Romeo 1900 CS Pinin Farina

    Launched at the Paris Motor Show in 1950, the Alfa Romeo 1900 was a significant advance for the growing company. The 1900 was the first Alfa Romeo designed and built for production assembly and the first Alfa Romeo available in left-hand drive. Offered in four-door Berlina and two-door Sprint variants, the 1900 was initially powered by a 1,884cc, 4-cylinder twin cam engine producing a capable 90 horsepower. Racing victories in the Targa Florio and Stella Alpina rallies lead to Alfa Romeo marketing and promoting the 1900 as “the family car that wins races”. In 1951, Alfa Romeo released the shorter 2.5-meter wheelbase 1900C, followed quickly by a more powerful engine option, the 1900 “Sprint”. The Sprint was equipped with a bored-out 1,900cc engine producing 100 horsepower. Approximately 100 of the performance-oriented, short-wheelbase 1900s were delivered with the more powerful Sprint engines to famed Italian coachbuilder Pinin Farina. Pinin Farina designed the very elegant coupe body known as the 1900 “Corto” Sprint. The unique platform design and performance engine enticed other notable coachbuilders including Touring, Zagato, and Bertone, however the Pinin Farina design, with its pure lines and ideal proportions, delivers a handsome and balanced profile ideally paired with state-of-the-art twin-cam performance. Under former ownership, the prior owner purchased this 1900 CS from an esteemed Northern California collector to accompany multiple highly prized vehicles in his personal collection. Having enlisted expert Raffi Najjarian of The Pit Stop, a great deal of work was performed on the car’s mechanical components including an engine rebuild beyond CSS specifications. This rebuild included the installation of a CSS crankshaft, larger pistons, dual Weber 44 DCO carburetors feeding into an Abarth intake manifold, and new exhaust. Additional work included the installation of an oil cooler, electric fuel pump, new fuel tank, and a supplementary electric cooling fan, all of which further required upgrading the electrical system with new wiring. Substantial time was further spent improving the car’s driving dynamics. Inclusive of the suspension rebuild, all new Alfin drum brakes were installed, while the front A-arms were updated with 2500 series units and a rebuilt steering box. The original column mounted four-speed transmission was replaced with a floor mounted five-speed gearbox and a new clutch. As the mechanical work was completed, the engine bay was detailed and carefully finished using as many authentic components as possible. In 2018, the car was offered for sale by Fantasy Junction. A few years later, the owner passed away and the car was auctioned by Bonhams in 2020, at which time, the current and consigning owner purchased the car. Under current ownership, this Alfa Romeo has benefited from new leather seat reupholstery, new carpet, a valve job for the twin cam head, general mechanical freshening, and excellent paint correction to high driver level. As an added performance feature, this 1900 is outfitted with exhaust cutouts which can be engaged manually from behind the driver’s seat. These levers bypass the mufflers delivering a more vigorous exhaust note. Today this handsome Pinin Farina 1900 CS presents with a quality high gloss vivid red finish ideal for events and tours. Panel fit is generally good, in keeping with period construction. The doors open and shut easily, while the lightweight alloy hood and trunk raise and lower without issue. A few superficial stone chips are visible in the front facing areas, though none affect the overall high driver level presentation. The windshield and side glass, many of which bear the original glass Securit brand marks, present nicely including the unique sweeping wrap around rear window. The grille and eyebrow openings were re-chromed during the refresh, still offering excellent reflections and smooth finish. The rear bumpers and chrome trunk handle are also very nicely presented. The absence of further garnish molding and chrome trim is a welcome relief from often overdone cars of this period. In keeping with the performance theme, the car is finished with beautiful Borrani wire wheels. Under prior ownership, all four wheels and the matching spare wheel were rebuilt and powder-coated in silver finish. The wheels are finished with correct chrome plated dual ear knock-offs with correctly sized 2019 date-coded Michelin tires. The interior reflects the performance lineage of these exceptional cars with a focus on spirited driving. The seat supports were refinished under current ownership along with new carpet. The newly reupholstered leather covered rally-style Zagato seats complete the performance picture, giving excellent lateral support, particularly when compared to the original style bench seats. The cloth headliner and sun visors are clean and taut, while the rear parcel shelf and leather straps offer a nice finishing touch to the interior. The upgraded 5-speed manual gearbox is very well positioned, wrapped in a leather boot, and topped with a polished alloy shift knob. The dashboard features correct instrumentation with clean lenses, crisp numbers, and handsome lettering. A safety kill switch is located under the left side of the dash. The interior is handsomely finished overall with a period correct flat Nardi wooden steering wheel, accented by the Alfa Romeo center insignia. The trunk is nicely finished in satin black with a proper textured floor mat, and a distinctive optional touch – a handheld Marchal spotlight, convenient for rally road repairs, particularly effective in evening or sunset events. The engine compartment has been nicely maintained since the rebuild and recent valve job. Correct finishes, authentic parts, proper lines and materials, and uniform finishes now display slight patina resulting from modest use. During the rebuild, the engine was upgraded with twin 44DCO (No. 13 and 15) Weber carburetors and an Abarth intake manifold. A FISPA air cleaner was installed along with the Weber carburetors. The undercarriage presents with no evidence of structural compromise and while not detailed for show, all components are clean, dry, and tidy. Of note, the upgraded 2500 series front suspension and shock absorbers add to the handling and performance of this car. The car starts with ease and warms to a nice throaty idle. Driving manners are quite good under general road use, but greatly enhanced with the 5-speed gearbox, improved front suspension, and power upgrades to the engine. The engine operates with good oil pressure and proper running temperatures. The brakes operate confidently with good pedal pressure and the steering is generally good but has slight play at top dead center. The driving experience in this Alfa Romeo 1900 benefits from the upgraded floor mounted 5-speed with ratios ideally spaced for road or highway use. Accompanying the car is a set of tools wrapped in a period correct cloth roll, a restored jack, a Marchal spotlight, and a matching spare wire wheel. This is a great opportunity to acquire an event eligible rare Pinin Farina bodied Alfa Romeo combining professionally refined mechanical improvements and delightful visual presentation, enhanced by thoughtful performance upgrades. For those who admire hand-built coachwork, state of the art engineering, and exciting driving, this Alfa Romeo 1900 CS is sure to deliver ongoing rewards uniquely delivered in vintage automobile ownership experiences. 1953 Alfa Romeo 1900 CS Pinin Farina Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

As the mechanical work was completed, the engine bay was detailed and carefully finished using as many authentic components as possible. In 2018, the car was offered for sale by Fantasy Junction. A few years later, the owner passed away and the car was auctioned by Bonhams in 2020, at which time, the current and consigning owner purchased the car. Under current ownership, this Alfa Romeo has benefited from new leather seat reupholstery, new carpet, a valve job for the twin cam head, general mechanical freshening, and excellent paint correction to high driver level. As an added performance feature, this 1900 is outfitted with exhaust cutouts which can be engaged manually from behind the driver’s seat. These levers bypass the mufflers delivering a more vigorous exhaust note. Today this handsome Pinin Farina 1900 CS presents with a quality high gloss vivid red finish ideal for events and tours. Panel fit is generally good, in keeping with period construction. The doors open and shut easily, while the lightweight alloy hood and trunk raise and lower without issue. A few superficial stone chips are visible in the front facing areas, though none affect the overall high driver level presentation. The windshield and side glass, many of which bear the original glass Securit brand marks, present nicely including the unique sweeping wrap around rear window. The grille and eyebrow openings were re-chromed during the refresh, still offering excellent reflections and smooth finish. The rear bumpers and chrome trunk handle are also very nicely presented. The absence of further garnish molding and chrome trim is a welcome relief from often overdone cars of this period. In keeping with the performance theme, the car is finished with beautiful Borrani wire wheels. Under prior ownership, all four wheels and the matching spare wheel were rebuilt and powder-coated in silver finish. The wheels are finished with correct chrome plated dual ear knock-offs with correctly sized 2019 date-coded Michelin tires. The interior reflects the performance lineage of these exceptional cars with a focus on spirited driving. The seat supports were refinished under current ownership along with new carpet. The newly reupholstered leather covered rally-style Zagato seats complete the performance picture, giving excellent lateral support, particularly when compared to the original style bench seats. The cloth headliner and sun visors are clean and taut, while the rear parcel shelf and leather straps offer a nice finishing touch to the interior. The upgraded 5-speed manual gearbox is very well positioned, wrapped in a leather boot, and topped with a polished alloy shift knob. The dashboard features correct instrumentation with clean lenses, crisp numbers, and handsome lettering. A safety kill switch is located under the left side of the dash. The interior is handsomely finished overall with a period correct flat Nardi wooden steering wheel, accented by the Alfa Romeo center insignia. The trunk is nicely finished in satin black with a proper textured floor mat, and a distinctive optional touch – a handheld Marchal spotlight, convenient for rally road repairs, particularly effective in evening or sunset events. The engine compartment has been nicely maintained since the rebuild and recent valve job. Correct finishes, authentic parts, proper lines and materials, and uniform finishes now display slight patina resulting from modest use. During the rebuild, the engine was upgraded with twin 44DCO (No. 13 and 15) Weber carburetors and an Abarth intake manifold. A FISPA air cleaner was installed along with the Weber carburetors. The undercarriage presents with no evidence of structural compromise and while not detailed for show, all components are clean, dry, and tidy. Of note, the upgraded 2500 series front suspension and shock absorbers add to the handling and performance of this car. The car starts with ease and warms to a nice throaty idle. Driving manners are quite good under general road use, but greatly enhanced with the 5-speed gearbox, improved front suspension, and power upgrades to the engine. The engine operates with good oil pressure and proper running temperatures. The brakes operate confidently with good pedal pressure and the steering is generally good but has slight play at top dead center. The driving experience in this Alfa Romeo 1900 benefits from the upgraded floor mounted 5-speed with ratios ideally spaced for road or highway use. Accompanying the car is a set of tools wrapped in a period correct cloth roll, a restored jack, a Marchal spotlight, and a matching spare wire wheel. This is a great opportunity to acquire an event eligible rare Pinin Farina bodied Alfa Romeo combining professionally refined mechanical improvements and delightful visual presentation, enhanced by thoughtful performance upgrades. For those who admire hand-built coachwork, state of the art engineering, and exciting driving, this Alfa Romeo 1900 CS is sure to deliver ongoing rewards uniquely delivered in vintage automobile ownership experiences.

  • 1969-alfa-romeo-1750-gtv-serie-1

    The two-door coupé, based on the Alfa Romeo Giulia chassis, had its debut in September 1963 at the Frankfurt IAA. Initially called Giulia Sprint GT, the car received a timelessly beautiful coachwork designed by none other by Giorgetto Giugiaro and is considered an absolute design icon to this day. Produced until 1975 it was equipped with engines from 1.3 to 2.0 litres. Our example, a 1750 GT Veloce of the first series with floor mounted pedals is probably the most sought after variant. Completed in 1969, the Alfa was most probably a demo with Joseph Siffert Automobiles (THE racing legend Jo Siffert) before it was handed over to its first owner, an automotive electrician from Bern, on the 14th of April 1970. On the 20th of May 1970, the beautiful coupé was registered for the first time. The GTV remained with its first owner until 2010 when, after a long storage and with 90’000 kilometres covered, it was passed on to a good friend, the vendor‘s father. The new owner had some stone chips and scratches repaired with a partial repaint and had the Alfa carefully recommissioned. In 2013 he handed the GTV over to his son who, in 2016 had all shaft seals replaced on the engine, gearbox and differential. At the same time the car also received new clutch cylinders as well as a new clutch pressure- and friction plate. In 2023 the rear axle was equipped with new brake callipers and pads and in 2024 a new brake servo as well as a new fuel pump were installed. Lack of time led to only 4’000 kilometres covered in the last 14 years and the vendor now has decided to sell his GTV. This fantastic 1750 now has 93’000 kilometres on the clock, still has its own document folder including its service booklet and is in very good and very original condition. The coupé will be sold to the next Alfisto with a number of receipts as well as the most recent veteran MOT from June 2024. 1969 Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV Serie 1 Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1963 FERRARI 250 GTE

    The Ferrari 250 GTE (Gran Turismo Evoluzione) or GT 2+2, launched in 1960, is a touring car developed by the Italian manufacturer Ferrari, designed by Pininfarina and bodied by Scaglietti. Although a handful of Ferraris - mostly special orders - had previously been fitted with limited space behind their only two seats, the 250 GTE inaugurated a new range of bodywork for Ferrari, the "GT 2+2". Despite a certain amount of condescension from "purists", the GT 2+2 or 4-seater coupés were a great success, and for many years became the automaker's specialty. In fact, the 250 GTE and its descendant, the 330 GT, accounted for over 50% of the company's output at the time. Described as "not only a great touring car, but also a prestigious one", the 250 GTE was the best-selling Ferrari of its day. In 1964, the 250 GTE was replaced by the Ferrari 330 America, 50 of which were produced, most of them exported across the Atlantic. Strictly speaking, it was the same model, but with displacement increased to 4 liters. In order to increase sales of passenger cars and thus finance its very expensive racing activities, Ferrari decided to develop a car capable of attracting a new clientele, eager to combine the practicality of a "family car" with the sportiness of a GT. Like Maserati and the 3500 GT, Ferrari realized the importance of high-volume cars to the brand's survival. Indeed, Enzo Ferrari's son Piero Ferrari explained that two-seaters "weren't his father's favorite cars to drive. He loved the 2+2 as a personal car. He usually drove the car himself, but he was always accompanied by a chauffeur and his dog, so a 2-seater just wasn't enough". A great deal of work went into adapting the Ferrari 250 to its new vocation. Ferrari developed four prototypes, an exceptionally high number, which covered a distance never before achieved by the company. The 1960 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans was the occasion to present the new Ferrari 250 GTE, or rather one of its prototypes. Naturally, it appeared not as a participant, but as the race director's car, driven by the 24 Hours director. It was officially presented at the Paris Motor Show in October of the same year. 950 examples were built between 1960 and 1963, the last year of production, making the 250 GTE Ferrari's best-selling model. By 1958, Ferrari had built almost 685 road cars since its creation in 1947. Three series of 250 GTEs, distinguished from each other by a few aesthetic modifications, were actually produced The exterior Surprisingly, the design of the new Ferrari, without departing from that of the Ferrari 250 GT SWB, is by the hand of Sergio Pininfarina - and not his father Battista - marking his growing influence within the Pininfarina company. It's well known that he succeeded in retaining the racy look of a GT despite the move to 2+2 dimensions, and the 250 GTE proves to be a marvel of balance. The plunging design of the side windows, in particular, reduces the impression of a sedan induced by the horizontal roofline. 1962 saw a slight revision of the grille and hood design. Sergio Pininfarina, who had been an aerodynamics assistant in the wind tunnel at Turin Polytechnic, also understood the importance of aerodynamics in terms of aeroacoustics, and had each prototype studied in the wind tunnel. As was customary at the time, Carrozzeria Scaglietti was responsible for the bodywork and assembly of the GTE. The GTE's structure is essentially made of steel, with the exception of the doors, hood and trunk lid, which are made of aluminum. The grille, which proudly displays the brand's prancing horse, is usually fitted with additional lights at each corner. Originally positioned on the grille, these lights were moved outside in 1962. In the same year, the chrome rod running across the hood was also replaced by a rectangular air intake. A discreet body crease runs along the fenders, from the front wheel arch to the rear lights. The taillights - three vertically positioned headlamps on either side - are mounted on a chrome plate. To provide four comfortable seats, the cabin is more generous than that of the 250 GT Berlinetta, thanks to an increase of 300 mm in length and 60 mm in width, although the height is reduced by 50 mm. However, the 250 GTE only qualifies as a "2+2" - for two seats in the front and two in the rear - and not as a four-seater in its own right, since the front seats must have sufficient space up to the pedals for the driver's legs, thus penalizing the legroom of rear passengers. The interior of the 250 GTE is luxurious and "extremely" comfortable; for example, the rear seats are separated by a central armrest with an ashtray. Compared to the PF Coupé, the boot volume has been increased to accommodate the luggage of up to four people. The dashboard, meanwhile, is covered in black leather, while the eight instruments, encircled in Veglia chrome, are integrated into a panel generally the same color as the body. Engine The Tipo 128E engine, the latest evolution of the 60°-open V12 "Colombo" with a displacement of 2,953 cm3 (bore/stroke 73 mm × 58.8 mm), is positioned longitudinally forward to allow for a larger passenger compartment. With the engine positioned in front of the front wheel axle, the weight distribution is 55% front and 45% rear; although "handling is excellent", the engine's forward movement tends to accentuate the 250 GTE's understeer. This engine, whose cylinder head is taken from the 250 Testa Rossa, has already proved its worth in competition and on a number of production Ferraris. Thanks to a compression ratio of 9.2:1 and three Weber twin-barrel carburetors, the 250 GTE achieves 240 hp at 7,000 rpm, a very high figure for a 2+2 at the time, despite the extra weight - 80 kg to reach 1,280 kg - compared with the Berlinetta. It also accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just over seven seconds. The engine is mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox, the last of which is overdriven by a Laycock de Normanville electric overdrive. This overdrive reduces engine speed by 22%, thus lowering the fuel consumption of the "greedy" V12 (14 ℓ/100 km). The 250 GTE was also the first Ferrari to be equipped with an air-cooled radiator cooling system. In 1964, the 250 GTE engine was upgraded to a displacement of 3,967 cm3 (bore/stroke 77 mm × 71 mm) - and renamed Tipo 209 - to power the Ferrari 330 America, the only difference between the 330 America and the 250 GTE. The engine now delivers 300 hp at 7,600 rpm. Chassis The wheelbase of the 250 GTE is 2600 mm. The difficulty in adapting a GT, namely the 250 GT Berlinetta, to more "family" use lies in retaining the wheelbase of a coupé - i.e. 2,600 mm, as with the Pinin Farina berlinetta and cabriolet - while offering sufficient space to add two seats. The chassis of the Ferrari 250 GTE has been completely redesigned to allow the engine to be moved forward some twenty centimetres and the two rear seats to be installed in front of the axle; the tracks have also been widened by 60 mm compared to the berlinetta, in order to accommodate the engine. The suspension system received special attention, since a set of telescopic hydraulic shock absorbers - replacing the rod shock absorbers - parallel trailing arms and leaf springs, assisted by coil springs from 1963, was dedicated to it. Ferrari GTE Squadra Mobile A little-known episode in the career of the Ferrari 250 GTE is its time in the hands of the Roman police. In 1962, after several major successes against the city's underworld, the then President of the Italian Republic, Giovanni Gronchi, organized a ceremony in honor of the forces of law and order. During the ceremony, he asked the officers present what reward they wanted, to which one jokingly replied: "a Ferrari". Gronchi took the request very seriously, and Enzo Ferrari, being a shrewd businessman, agreed to donate two Ferrari 250 GTEs to the Roman police (he hoped, beyond the spin-offs in terms of image, to equip other police forces in the country). As soon as they arrived in Rome, one of the cars was involved in a fatal accident, and the wreckage was taken back to Modena and destroyed by the ever-superstitious Enzo Ferrari. The other model was entrusted to an officer named Maresciallo Armando Spatafora. The latter had impressed everyone at the tests held in Modena a few days earlier, being extremely fast, so much so that Il Commendatore himself offered him a bucket seat, which he refused, stipulating "I'm a policeman, I only drive police cars". The car was an integral part of the Roman squadra mobile until 1968, when it was sold at auction to a private individual in 1972. During its 6-year career, it was truly the star of Rome. Legend has it that delinquents occasionally paid Spatafora to chase the Ferrari. While this has never been verified, what is certain is that a significant number of crooks were put behind bars thanks to her driver, to the point of giving rise to a saying in Rome in the 60s: "Advice from the brigands to their followers: if you're out at night, watch out for the panthers (the name of the Roman police's rapid intervention cars), but if you're out until dawn, then watch out for Spatafora behind the wheel". In particular, an encounter with a French bandit nicknamed "Le Marseillais" led to one of the Italian capital's most epic chases, as the latter, hoping to take advantage of his Citroën DS's air suspension, drove down the stairs of the Piazza di Spagna, which didn't scare Spatafora, who followed and eventually apprehended him. The marks of the steps on the Ferrari's chassis are still visible today. This remarkable episode gave rise to the film Poliziotto Sprint Heritage For a very long time, cars were sold without bodywork, and it was then up to the buyer to go to a coachbuilder to "dress" his car. The 250 GTE's high degree of industrialization for its time marks a definitive turning point in Ferrari's history: Ferrari no longer sells just a chassis, leaving its customers with a car body. Our car is a Ferrari 250 GT 2+2 that left the Maranello factory in July 1963. Delivered to the Vari Gioacchino garage in Rome, it featured red bodywork and beige leather interior. The car kept this red color when a complete restoration was undertaken (photo file available). At the time, the car was painted in black with a Cartier interior whose elegance cannot be disputed. Our file shows that the car was owned by Mr Rouer in the mid-1980s. In 2009, it was acquired by Jean Pierre Van Den Doorn, a Parisian collector and dealer, who sold it back to its owner in 2010. Since then, the car has taken part in numerous rallies and trips in the hands of its owner. Regularly maintained in Parisian workshops including Pozzi, the engine was completely rebuilt in 2013 by the Atelier des Sportives. The numerous invoices available in the file attest to a car regularly used and maintained in perfect working order. Today, this Ferrari 250 GT 2+2 boasts a beautiful patina acquired over many kilometers on French roads. It's a pleasure to drive, and a real invitation to travel. 1963 FERRARI 250 GTE Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

To provide four comfortable seats, the cabin is more generous than that of the 250 GT Berlinetta, thanks to an increase of 300 mm in length and 60 mm in width, although the height is reduced by 50 mm. However, the 250 GTE only qualifies as a "2+2" - for two seats in the front and two in the rear - and not as a four-seater in its own right, since the front seats must have sufficient space up to the pedals for the driver's legs, thus penalizing the legroom of rear passengers. The interior of the 250 GTE is luxurious and "extremely" comfortable; for example, the rear seats are separated by a central armrest with an ashtray. Compared to the PF Coupé, the boot volume has been increased to accommodate the luggage of up to four people. The dashboard, meanwhile, is covered in black leather, while the eight instruments, encircled in Veglia chrome, are integrated into a panel generally the same color as the body. Engine The Tipo 128E engine, the latest evolution of the 60°-open V12 "Colombo" with a displacement of 2,953 cm3 (bore/stroke 73 mm × 58.8 mm), is positioned longitudinally forward to allow for a larger passenger compartment. With the engine positioned in front of the front wheel axle, the weight distribution is 55% front and 45% rear; although "handling is excellent", the engine's forward movement tends to accentuate the 250 GTE's understeer. This engine, whose cylinder head is taken from the 250 Testa Rossa, has already proved its worth in competition and on a number of production Ferraris. Thanks to a compression ratio of 9.2:1 and three Weber twin-barrel carburetors, the 250 GTE achieves 240 hp at 7,000 rpm, a very high figure for a 2+2 at the time, despite the extra weight - 80 kg to reach 1,280 kg - compared with the Berlinetta. It also accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just over seven seconds. The engine is mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox, the last of which is overdriven by a Laycock de Normanville electric overdrive. This overdrive reduces engine speed by 22%, thus lowering the fuel consumption of the "greedy" V12 (14 ℓ/100 km). The 250 GTE was also the first Ferrari to be equipped with an air-cooled radiator cooling system. In 1964, the 250 GTE engine was upgraded to a displacement of 3,967 cm3 (bore/stroke 77 mm × 71 mm) - and renamed Tipo 209 - to power the Ferrari 330 America, the only difference between the 330 America and the 250 GTE. The engine now delivers 300 hp at 7,600 rpm. Chassis The wheelbase of the 250 GTE is 2600 mm. The difficulty in adapting a GT, namely the 250 GT Berlinetta, to more "family" use lies in retaining the wheelbase of a coupé - i.e. 2,600 mm, as with the Pinin Farina berlinetta and cabriolet - while offering sufficient space to add two seats. The chassis of the Ferrari 250 GTE has been completely redesigned to allow the engine to be moved forward some twenty centimetres and the two rear seats to be installed in front of the axle; the tracks have also been widened by 60 mm compared to the berlinetta, in order to accommodate the engine. The suspension system received special attention, since a set of telescopic hydraulic shock absorbers - replacing the rod shock absorbers - parallel trailing arms and leaf springs, assisted by coil springs from 1963, was dedicated to it. Ferrari GTE Squadra Mobile A little-known episode in the career of the Ferrari 250 GTE is its time in the hands of the Roman police. In 1962, after several major successes against the city's underworld, the then President of the Italian Republic, Giovanni Gronchi, organized a ceremony in honor of the forces of law and order. During the ceremony, he asked the officers present what reward they wanted, to which one jokingly replied: "a Ferrari". Gronchi took the request very seriously, and Enzo Ferrari, being a shrewd businessman, agreed to donate two Ferrari 250 GTEs to the Roman police (he hoped, beyond the spin-offs in terms of image, to equip other police forces in the country). As soon as they arrived in Rome, one of the cars was involved in a fatal accident, and the wreckage was taken back to Modena and destroyed by the ever-superstitious Enzo Ferrari. The other model was entrusted to an officer named Maresciallo Armando Spatafora. The latter had impressed everyone at the tests held in Modena a few days earlier, being extremely fast, so much so that Il Commendatore himself offered him a bucket seat, which he refused, stipulating "I'm a policeman, I only drive police cars". The car was an integral part of the Roman squadra mobile until 1968, when it was sold at auction to a private individual in 1972. During its 6-year career, it was truly the star of Rome. Legend has it that delinquents occasionally paid Spatafora to chase the Ferrari. While this has never been verified, what is certain is that a significant number of crooks were put behind bars thanks to her driver, to the point of giving rise to a saying in Rome in the 60s: "Advice from the brigands to their followers: if you're out at night, watch out for the panthers (the name of the Roman police's rapid intervention cars), but if you're out until dawn, then watch out for Spatafora behind the wheel". In particular, an encounter with a French bandit nicknamed "Le Marseillais" led to one of the Italian capital's most epic chases, as the latter, hoping to take advantage of his Citroën DS's air suspension, drove down the stairs of the Piazza di Spagna, which didn't scare Spatafora, who followed and eventually apprehended him. The marks of the steps on the Ferrari's chassis are still visible today. This remarkable episode gave rise to the film Poliziotto Sprint Heritage For a very long time, cars were sold without bodywork, and it was then up to the buyer to go to a coachbuilder to "dress" his car. The 250 GTE's high degree of industrialization for its time marks a definitive turning point in Ferrari's history: Ferrari no longer sells just a chassis, leaving its customers with a car body. Our car is a Ferrari 250 GT 2+2 that left the Maranello factory in July 1963. Delivered to the Vari Gioacchino garage in Rome, it featured red bodywork and beige leather interior. The car kept this red color when a complete restoration was undertaken (photo file available). At the time, the car was painted in black with a Cartier interior whose elegance cannot be disputed. Our file shows that the car was owned by Mr Rouer in the mid-1980s. In 2009, it was acquired by Jean Pierre Van Den Doorn, a Parisian collector and dealer, who sold it back to its owner in 2010. Since then, the car has taken part in numerous rallies and trips in the hands of its owner. Regularly maintained in Parisian workshops including Pozzi, the engine was completely rebuilt in 2013 by the Atelier des Sportives. The numerous invoices available in the file attest to a car regularly used and maintained in perfect working order. Today, this Ferrari 250 GT 2+2 boasts a beautiful patina acquired over many kilometers on French roads. It's a pleasure to drive, and a real invitation to travel.

  • 1962-alfa-romeo-2000-spider-by-touring

    Introduced in 1958, the 102 Series 2000 succeeded the celebrated 1900 in Alfa Romeo’s model lineup. The 2000 was available in three body styles, including the short-wheelbase Spider. The manufacturer’s highly developed 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine provided spritely performance, while Carrozzeria Touring of Milan designed the open coachwork. The Spider was adorned with details such as twin hood scoops, a split front bumper, and four non-functional chromed vents behind each front wheel. Production lasted through 1962. With fewer than 3,500 examples built, the endearing 2000 Spider remains one of the rarer post-war production Alfa Romeos, making it all the more desirable and collectible today. An accompanying Alfa Romeo Museo Storico certificate indicates that the chassis for the Spider offered here was completed on 9 September 1960. After receiving its shapely Touring bodywork, it was subsequently delivered to Hoffman Motor Car Company of New York on 22 August 1961. The Spider was originally finished in Rossa Alfa with a black interior and adorned with a white stripe across the cowl. Acquired by the current owner from a local collector in October 2016, the car soon became the subject of a seven-year rotisserie restoration that totaled nearly $240,000. Invoices and a selection of photos on file detail the immense amount of work performed, involving stripping the vehicle down to bare metal before reassembling it to the wonderful appearance seen today. Now finished in dark blue over a red interior, this Alfa Romeo is powered by its matching-numbers engine, further increasing the car’s desirability. Professionally refinished in a stunning color combination and documented with an Alfa Romeo Museo Storico certificate, as well as restoration invoices, this restored 2000 Spider represents a great opportunity for the Alfa Romeo enthusiast to own one of the marque’s least-common standard-production post-war convertibles. 1962 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider by Touring RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1968 Ferrari 330 GTS

    At the 1966 Paris Auto Salon, Ferrari launched the 330 GTS, successor to the 275 GTS and the open version of the popular 330 GTC coupe. It featured an enlarged 4.0-liter V-12 breathing through three triple-choke Weber DCZ/6 carburetors, producing a conservatively estimated 300 brake horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 244 pound-feet of torque at 5,000 rpm, delivered through a five-speed transaxle and ZF limited-slip differential. Zero to 60 mph was possible in around 6.0 seconds and the top speed was nearly 150 mph, both incredibly impressive figures for a convertible in the late 1960s. Nimble driving dynamics come from a fully independent suspension comprised of unequal-length wishbones, coil springs, and Koni shock absorbers, plus anti-roll bars at both ends. Four-wheel Girling vented disc brakes sat behind either standard Campagnolo magnesium alloy or optional Borrani wire wheels. The car looked spectacular, thanks to Pininfarina bodywork that drew inspiration from the contemporary 500 Superfast, with its split front bumper, triple-louvered engine vents on each fender, and an elegant swage line along each flank, tying the front end to the rear. The bodywork was mostly steel, aside from the doors, hood, and trunk, which were formed from aluminum. The production process saw bare chassis transported directly from the Ferrari factory at Maranello to Pininfarina’s plant at Grugliasco, outside Turin, where they were fitted with bodywork before being returned to Ferrari for the final mechanical installation. Sublimely detailed, the 330 GTS’s design is widely regarded as one of the most elegant produced by Ferrari during a decade of greatness. The 330 GTS was, of course, limited in production, with only 100 examples produced. They were fiercely desirable when new and have never really fallen out of favor, with collectors still pursuing the finest examples for their stables. CHASSIS NUMBER 11027 Chassis number 11027, offered here, was the 86th 330 GTS built, completed in February 1968. It was delivered to its original owner shortly thereafter via Luigi Chinetti Motors of Greenwich, Connecticut, finished in Argento with Nero interior and the desirable options of Borrani wire wheels and air conditioning. According to the records of Ferrari historian Marcel Massini, a copy of whose historical report is on file, the car was driven some 25,000 actual miles over the first decade of its life, before being sold through a Virginia dealer in 1976. It was refinished later in the decade and thereafter fully restored, after which it earned Best in Show awards at the 1985 and 1986 Ferrari Newport Concours and at the 1987 Sporst Car Club of America Concours in Albany, New York. In February 1994, collector and vintage racer Edie Arrowsmith purschased the 330 GTS, and in her ownership it was restored anew by Steve Tillack. It was shown at the Palm Beach International Concours d’Elegance in 2005, then in 2007 was acquired by a collector on the East Coast in whose ownership it appeared at the 2013 Cavallino Classic and was featured in the 2014 official Ferrari Calendar by Gunther Raupp. More recently, chassis number 11027 has been returned to its original shade of Argento. Additionally, the interior has been reupholstered in period-correct Rosso Connolly hide. This 330 GTS is offered in beautiful overall condition with numbers-matching engine and gearbox. It is an outstanding example of the model that presents superbly from tip to tail and is true to the legacy of one of the most exciting open Ferraris of its generation. 1968 Ferrari 330 GTS RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1967-ferrari-330-gtc-1

    This matching-numbers Ferrari 330 GTC is a true time capsule—retained in single-family ownership from 1972 to 2025, a remarkable 53-year span. Accompanied by a Marcel Massini report, the car was delivered new in Argento (Argento 25090 A) over Nero Franzi with red carpets and remains a largely original, beautifully preserved example of one of Ferrari's most elegant and desirable V12 Grand Tourers. One of just 598 Ferrari 330 GTCs ever built, this LHD European-specification example stands out for its originality and provenance. Registered in Switzerland in 1969 and exported to the U.S. in 1972, it was acquired by Mr. Edward Clifton McClew Jr. of Birmingham, Michigan. It has remained tucked away in dry storage for decades until recently discovered—complete and untouched. Matching numbers throughout (chassis, engine, gearbox, rear axle) Original assembly number visible on the rear trunk floor and trunk bonnet Original Pininfarina body number C0176 is still visible in the engine compartment 60,625 km (approx. 37,670 miles) from new Original interior: black leather with red carpeting, nicely preserved Campagnolo center-lock alloy wheels with vintage Pirelli tires Original Sekurit glass all around, including windshield Includes original owner's manual, parts manual, and a box of miscellaneous parts Copy of Original Swiss export documentation and purchase invoice (dated July 14, 1972) Marcel Massini history report dated September 4, 2025 This “Lost and Found” Ferrari is a rare opportunity to acquire a survivor-grade 330 GTC with superb bones, honest patina, and exceptional documentation. Offered “as discovered” the engine is not currently running but does turn freely by hand. It's a dream candidate for sympathetic mechanical recommissioning or concours-level restoration—with the irreplaceable character and soul of a car that's been well preserved. 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC Driver Source Fine Motorcars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Accompanied by a Marcel Massini report, the car was delivered new in Argento (Argento 25090 A) over Nero Franzi with red carpets and remains a largely original, beautifully preserved example of one of Ferrari's most elegant and desirable V12 Grand Tourers. One of just 598 Ferrari 330 GTCs ever built, this LHD European-specification example stands out for its originality and provenance. Registered in Switzerland in 1969 and exported to the U.S. in 1972, it was acquired by Mr. Edward Clifton McClew Jr. of Birmingham, Michigan. It has remained tucked away in dry storage for decades until recently discovered—complete and untouched.

  • 1994 Ferrari F333 SP

    ‘Il Sogno Americano’ When Luca di Montezemolo greenlit the development of what would become the F333 SP, he heralded Ferrari’s return to endurance racing’s top flight for the first time in over two decades. Originally designed in partnership with Dallara for privateer teams to contest the newly formed IMSA World Sports Car Championship (WSC) in America, the F333 SP was the brainchild of Gianpiero Moretti, the Italian motorsport magnate and the founder of MOMO. You see Moretti had enjoyed much success racing in the United States, yet by 1993, one goal eluded him: to win in a Ferrari sports car. With the radical change in the IMSA rulebook, the timing was impeccable. He called the F333 SP Il Sogno Americano – his American dream. Ferrari’s return to endurance racing naturally made waves right across the motorsport world – exactly the kind of momentum the IMSA organisers needed. And there was much to be excited about: a strong and sophisticated monocoque chassis, a stunning body honed exactly to the WSC regulations in Dallara’s state-of-the-art wind tunnel, and a four-litre V12 engine derived from that in the 641 Formula 1 single-seater – a car which won six Grands Prix in the 1990 season. A special note must be made for the engine note produced by this engine: a shrill yet melodic howl that sends shivers down the spine. Ferrari had intended to publicly display the 1m-US-dollar F333 SP for the first time in the paddock during the 1994 Daytona 24 Hours (it wasn’t quite ready to race by this point). But such was the fervour surrounding the introduction of the new car that the race organisers feared it would detract from the on-track action. Ferrari was instead forced to hire a suite at the nearby Hilton hotel and arrange private viewings of the car by appointment! “The inherent pace and reliability of the F333 SP coupled with both Ferrari and privateer outfits’ nous for upgrading it in line with ever-changing technical regulations meant it enjoyed extraordinary competition longevity.” The inherent pace and reliability of the F333 SP coupled with both Ferrari and privateer outfits’ nous for upgrading it in line with ever-changing technical regulations meant it enjoyed extraordinary competition longevity. F333 SPs were a successful staple of endurance racing not only in America but around the world for almost a decade, only bowing out in 2003 when Audi had found its groove with the all-conquering R8. The statistics speak for themselves: 126 races, 47 wins and 12 major championships. Only 40 examples were produced, the first four by Ferrari in Maranello, the next nine by Dallara in Varano and the remaining chassis by Michelotto in Padova. Chassis number 003 As its chassis number denotes, the F333 SP we’re honoured to be offering – 003 – was the third example produced and thus built by Ferrari in Maranello. Prior to delivery to its first private owner, Andy Evans of Scandia Motorsport in the United States, Ferrari took the opportunity to exhibit this F333 SP on its stand at the 1994 Geneva Motor Show, among its entire range of road-going models. Chassis 003’s first public appearance on European soil set the rumour mill swirling, for the motorsport world believed it signalled the Prancing Horse’s intentions to return to the 24 Hours of Le Mans. In part, the rumours were true. Shortly after the Geneva salon, this F333 SP was sent across the pond where it was poised to contest select rounds of the 1994 IMSA GT Championship in the top-flight WSC category. Racing under the Scandia Motorsport banner, chassis 003 was raced primarily by the team owner and Wall Street banker Andy Evans, with guest drivers including Ross Bentley, Charles Morgan and Fermín Vélez. And it proved to be a successful campaign. Two podiums – in The New England Dodge Dealers Grand Prix at Lime Rock and the Indy Grand Prix at Indianapolis – were crowned by a stellar outright victory in the Monterey Sports Car Grand Prix at Laguna Seca. Evans’ 169 points were good for fourth overall in the title standings. The 1995 IMSA World Sports Car Championship beckoned for this Ferrari F333 SP, which was once again racing for Andy Evans’ Scandia Motorsport outfit. If the curtain-raising Daytona 24 Hours didn’t go the number-three crew’s way (the engine gave up the ghost) then the 12 Hours of Sebring which followed more than made up for it. Unusually for the Florida endurance classic, proceedings were plagued by inclement weather, so much so that the race had to be halted for an hour as darkness fell. Evans and his copilots Fermín Vélez and Eric van de Poele engaged in a race-long tussle with the Chevrolet-powered Spice of endurance veterans Derek Bell, Andy Wallace, Jan Lammers and Morris Shirazi. But when the chequered flag fell, it was the F333 SP of Scandia Motorsport which crossed the line first, claiming an emphatic victory. It was the first time a Ferrari had triumphed at Sebring since Messrs. Andretti and Ickx in 1972 – 23 years prior. The incredible result was nothing short of a fairy tale. Highlights for chassis 003 from the remainder of the 1995 season included podiums at Lime Rock and Sears Point and an excellent outright victory in the 2 Hours of Phoenix. After what had been a stellar year of racing, Fermín Vélez was crowned the IMSA Exxon World Sports Car Championship Drivers’ champion and Ferrari duly won the manufacturers’ gong. While this F333 SP did contest the final three rounds of the following year’s IMSA World Sports Car Championship, chassis 003’s 1996 was predominantly preoccupied by the world’s greatest endurance motor race: the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Mounting an assault on the French endurance classic was a significant undertaking, necessitating an alliance from Evans’ Scandia Motorsport outfit. It teamed up with the fellow American team RocketSports Racing, which would enter chassis number 003 at the Circuit de la Sarthe. Ahead of Le Mans, Dallara had worked closely with acclaimed designer Tony Southgate to optimise the F333 SP’s bodywork for the Circuit de la Sarthe’s long straights – an update chassis 003 duly received. The package included smoother bodywork with a large side-mounted air intake, extra-thin low-drag splitter and front wing, lateral deflectors to reduce cockpit turbulence and new four-piston Brembo brake calipers. At the traditional Le Mans pre-qualifying session in April of 1996, the raw pace of the revised F333 SP quickly became apparent: chassis 003, driven by Paul Gentilozzi and Eric van de Poele, recorded a best lap time of 3min48.6sec – good enough for second overall behind the second Scandia Motorsport-entered F333 SP. Early signs were looking promising for Andy Evans’ outfit and, more pertinently, the Prancing Horse. Suffice to say, all eyes in Maranello were on Scandia Motorsport for the 24 Hours proper. At the Circuit de la Sarthe in June, the Scandia Motorsport/RocketSports Racing Ferrari F333 SP was given the race number 18 and earmarked for chassis 003 regulars Andy Evans and Fermín Vélez. They were joined by the 1995 French Touring Car Champion Yvan Muller. After Wednesday’s opening qualifying sessions, Eric Van de Poele in the sister Scandia Motorsport Ferrari was on provisional pole position and the chassis 003 crew were an impressive seventh, illustrating the blistering pace of the Le Mans-spec F333 SP. If it wasn’t already clear, the 12-cylinder Prancing Horse was certainly the car to beat. Naturally it didn’t take long for the news to reach Maranello. Ferrari’s top brass was confident yet cautious and actually urged Evans to not risk the cars in Thursday’s subsequent sessions but instead focus on setting them up for the race itself. Naturally, Evans heeded the advice, even if it meant sacrificing pole position. Alas, come Saturday and the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Lady Luck was not smiling on the Scandia Motorsport team. Evans started in the number 18 – an eventful stint which culminated in a rather red-faced retirement when his F333 SP ran out of fuel around two hours into the race. “Eric Van de Poele in the sister Ferrari was on provisional pole position, illustrating the blistering pace of the F333 SP. If it wasn’t already clear, the 12-cylinder Prancing Horse was certainly the car to beat.” In the long competition career of this Ferrari F333 SP, its zenith was arguably reached at the beginning of the 1997 IMSA World Sports Car Championship. Evans, who by this point had acquired a controlling stake of the International Motor Sports Association, had two last dalliances with chassis number 003 ahead of him – and in the two most prestigious races on the calendar to boot: the Daytona 24 Hours and the 12 Hours of Sebring. A bumper field of 80 cars took to the start of the Daytona 24 Hours in 1997, 16 of which were vying for outright honours in the World Sports Car class. Andy Evans and Fermín Vélez were joined in chassis number 003 by the American brothers Charles and Rob Morgan for the twice-round-the-clock affair. And they got off to a great start on the world-famous banking, Fermín Vélez entering a lap of 1min40.5sec – pole position and almost half a second quicker than the Moretti Racing-entered Ferrari F333 SP. Despite narrowly missing out on victory in the race (the Dyson Racing Riley & Scott crossed the finish line a paltry lap ahead), a second-place trophy and the fastest race lap were very welcome spoils for Scandia Motorsport. The 1997 12 Hours of Sebring presented Scandia’s Andy Evans with a scenario never seen in top-flight motorsport before, nor we suspect since. Not only did he own the team running the car he was due to race, but he also owned the series in which he was racing and the Sebring International Raceway itself. The Daytona driver lineup may have been proven, but Evans couldn’t resist adding a little spice for this most special of occasions. The Swedish Formula 1 veteran Stefan Johansson and the French four-time Le Mans winner Yannick Dalmas were drafted in to support Evans and Vélez. The partnership would prove to be a fruitful one: for the second time in its career, chassis 003 triumphed in the classic Florida endurance race. To our knowledge, there is only one other Ferrari chassis to have won the 12 Hours of Sebring on two occasions and that’s the 250 TRI/61 chassis number 0792 TR. Evans finally parted with chassis number 003 after his spectacular Sebring victory, selling the Ferrari to Charles Morgan, who’d formed part of the formidable trio of pilots at Daytona and Sebring. For the remainder of the 1997 IMSA season, the Ferrari was campaigned under the Dibos Racing banner and driven predominantly by Edoardo Dibos, Fermín Vélez and Eliseo Salazar. The owner of the Italian team G.L.V. Brums Giuseppe Prevosti acquired chassis number 003 in early 1998, returning the car to Europe for the first time since it was born and entering the newly-formed International Sports Racing Series (ISRS), which had been conceived solely for open-cockpit sports-racing cars. As the FIA officially recognised the ISRS, so the series was renamed the Sports Racing World Cup for the 1999 season. G.L.V. Brums once again campaigned the car, this time in all nine rounds. The team did not veer from the dependable driver duo of Giovanni Lavaggi and Gaston Mazzacane, who picked up two podiums and a stunning outright victory at Magny-Cours in France. Four further podium finishes for this Ferrari in the 2000 Sports Racing World Cup helped G.L.V. Brums to finish fourth in the manufacturers’ standings. And even with a Judd V10 engine fitted in place of the Ferrari V12, chassis 003 managed to win the 1000KM di Monza, round two of the FIA Sportscar Championship, in 2001. Seven years after it made its competitive debut, this Ferrari was still winning top-flight sports-car races. It’s a testament to the inherent pace of the F333 SP. Its extraordinary competition career finally over, chassis number 003 was honourably retired at the end of 2003. Reunited with its original Ferrari 12-cylinder engine, the car was kept by Prevosti in his personal collection for almost a decade – telling of the affinity he clearly held for it. This F333 SP’s current owner, an American collector with a plethora of ultra-significant competition Ferraris including a 250 LM and a 312 PB, purchased the car directly from Prevosti in 2012. In the 11 years since, said collector has spent over 500,000 US dollars on restoring, preparing and maintaining this Ferrari sports prototype to the nth degree. In 2019, the car was submitted for the all-important Ferrari Classiche certification – certification it duly received, confirming the originality of the chassis, engine and gearbox. Refinished in its 1995 Sebring-winning livery, chassis 003 shows only three hours of use on its powertrain since the last rebuild and is presented in exquisite condition – as the photographs illustrate. “In 2019, chassis 003 was submitted for the all-important Ferrari Classiche certification – certification it duly received, confirming the originality of the chassis, engine and gearbox.” As Ferrari won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2023 for the first time since 1965, so new light has been cast on the Prancing Horse’s star-studded back catalogue of endurance competition cars. And given its extraordinary competition longevity and stunning record of results, the F333 SP is a car which absolutely deserves to be held among the greatest of them all – 250 P, 330 P4 and 312 PB included. To say we’re honoured to be offering chassis 003 would be an understatement of epic proportions: this car has so many alluring strings to its bow, not least its origins in Maranello and near decade-long competition career in both America and Europe, encompassing five outright victories and the world’s greatest endurance motor races from Daytona to Le Mans. That it won the 12 Hours of Sebring is a remarkable achievement, especially given the Prancing Horse’s then 23-year absence from the race. That it’s one of only two Ferrari chassis in history to have done it twice is nothing short of miraculous. This F333 SP’s string of mere four private owners in almost 30 years, its painstaking recent restoration and maintenance work and its Ferrari Classiche certification are crowning characteristics. To return this most special of Ferraris to the racetrack, either as part of Ferrari’s ultra-exclusive F1 Clienti programme or either of the burgeoning Endurance Racing Legends series, would be an experience to cherish forever. 1994 Ferrari F333 SP Girardo & Co.

While this F333 SP did contest the final three rounds of the following year’s IMSA World Sports Car Championship, chassis 003’s 1996 was predominantly preoccupied by the world’s greatest endurance motor race: the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Mounting an assault on the French endurance classic was a significant undertaking, necessitating an alliance from Evans’ Scandia Motorsport outfit. It teamed up with the fellow American team RocketSports Racing, which would enter chassis number 003 at the Circuit de la Sarthe. Ahead of Le Mans, Dallara had worked closely with acclaimed designer Tony Southgate to optimise the F333 SP’s bodywork for the Circuit de la Sarthe’s long straights – an update chassis 003 duly received. The package included smoother bodywork with a large side-mounted air intake, extra-thin low-drag splitter and front wing, lateral deflectors to reduce cockpit turbulence and new four-piston Brembo brake calipers. At the traditional Le Mans pre-qualifying session in April of 1996, the raw pace of the revised F333 SP quickly became apparent: chassis 003, driven by Paul Gentilozzi and Eric van de Poele, recorded a best lap time of 3min48.6sec – good enough for second overall behind the second Scandia Motorsport-entered F333 SP. Early signs were looking promising for Andy Evans’ outfit and, more pertinently, the Prancing Horse. Suffice to say, all eyes in Maranello were on Scandia Motorsport for the 24 Hours proper. At the Circuit de la Sarthe in June, the Scandia Motorsport/RocketSports Racing Ferrari F333 SP was given the race number 18 and earmarked for chassis 003 regulars Andy Evans and Fermín Vélez. They were joined by the 1995 French Touring Car Champion Yvan Muller. After Wednesday’s opening qualifying sessions, Eric Van de Poele in the sister Scandia Motorsport Ferrari was on provisional pole position and the chassis 003 crew were an impressive seventh, illustrating the blistering pace of the Le Mans-spec F333 SP. If it wasn’t already clear, the 12-cylinder Prancing Horse was certainly the car to beat. Naturally it didn’t take long for the news to reach Maranello. Ferrari’s top brass was confident yet cautious and actually urged Evans to not risk the cars in Thursday’s subsequent sessions but instead focus on setting them up for the race itself. Naturally, Evans heeded the advice, even if it meant sacrificing pole position. Alas, come Saturday and the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Lady Luck was not smiling on the Scandia Motorsport team. Evans started in the number 18 – an eventful stint which culminated in a rather red-faced retirement when his F333 SP ran out of fuel around two hours into the race. “Eric Van de Poele in the sister Ferrari was on provisional pole position, illustrating the blistering pace of the F333 SP. If it wasn’t already clear, the 12-cylinder Prancing Horse was certainly the car to beat.” In the long competition career of this Ferrari F333 SP, its zenith was arguably reached at the beginning of the 1997 IMSA World Sports Car Championship. Evans, who by this point had acquired a controlling stake of the International Motor Sports Association, had two last dalliances with chassis number 003 ahead of him – and in the two most prestigious races on the calendar to boot: the Daytona 24 Hours and the 12 Hours of Sebring. A bumper field of 80 cars took to the start of the Daytona 24 Hours in 1997, 16 of which were vying for outright honours in the World Sports Car class. Andy Evans and Fermín Vélez were joined in chassis number 003 by the American brothers Charles and Rob Morgan for the twice-round-the-clock affair. And they got off to a great start on the world-famous banking, Fermín Vélez entering a lap of 1min40.5sec – pole position and almost half a second quicker than the Moretti Racing-entered Ferrari F333 SP. Despite narrowly missing out on victory in the race (the Dyson Racing Riley & Scott crossed the finish line a paltry lap ahead), a second-place trophy and the fastest race lap were very welcome spoils for Scandia Motorsport. The 1997 12 Hours of Sebring presented Scandia’s Andy Evans with a scenario never seen in top-flight motorsport before, nor we suspect since. Not only did he own the team running the car he was due to race, but he also owned the series in which he was racing and the Sebring International Raceway itself. The Daytona driver lineup may have been proven, but Evans couldn’t resist adding a little spice for this most special of occasions. The Swedish Formula 1 veteran Stefan Johansson and the French four-time Le Mans winner Yannick Dalmas were drafted in to support Evans and Vélez. The partnership would prove to be a fruitful one: for the second time in its career, chassis 003 triumphed in the classic Florida endurance race. To our knowledge, there is only one other Ferrari chassis to have won the 12 Hours of Sebring on two occasions and that’s the 250 TRI/61 chassis number 0792 TR. Evans finally parted with chassis number 003 after his spectacular Sebring victory, selling the Ferrari to Charles Morgan, who’d formed part of the formidable trio of pilots at Daytona and Sebring. For the remainder of the 1997 IMSA season, the Ferrari was campaigned under the Dibos Racing banner and driven predominantly by Edoardo Dibos, Fermín Vélez and Eliseo Salazar. The owner of the Italian team G.L.V. Brums Giuseppe Prevosti acquired chassis number 003 in early 1998, returning the car to Europe for the first time since it was born and entering the newly-formed International Sports Racing Series (ISRS), which had been conceived solely for open-cockpit sports-racing cars. As the FIA officially recognised the ISRS, so the series was renamed the Sports Racing World Cup for the 1999 season. G.L.V. Brums once again campaigned the car, this time in all nine rounds. The team did not veer from the dependable driver duo of Giovanni Lavaggi and Gaston Mazzacane, who picked up two podiums and a stunning outright victory at Magny-Cours in France. Four further podium finishes for this Ferrari in the 2000 Sports Racing World Cup helped G.L.V. Brums to finish fourth in the manufacturers’ standings. And even with a Judd V10 engine fitted in place of the Ferrari V12, chassis 003 managed to win the 1000KM di Monza, round two of the FIA Sportscar Championship, in 2001. Seven years after it made its competitive debut, this Ferrari was still winning top-flight sports-car races. It’s a testament to the inherent pace of the F333 SP. Its extraordinary competition career finally over, chassis number 003 was honourably retired at the end of 2003. Reunited with its original Ferrari 12-cylinder engine, the car was kept by Prevosti in his personal collection for almost a decade – telling of the affinity he clearly held for it. This F333 SP’s current owner, an American collector with a plethora of ultra-significant competition Ferraris including a 250 LM and a 312 PB, purchased the car directly from Prevosti in 2012. In the 11 years since, said collector has spent over 500,000 US dollars on restoring, preparing and maintaining this Ferrari sports prototype to the nth degree. In 2019, the car was submitted for the all-important Ferrari Classiche certification – certification it duly received, confirming the originality of the chassis, engine and gearbox. Refinished in its 1995 Sebring-winning livery, chassis 003 shows only three hours of use on its powertrain since the last rebuild and is presented in exquisite condition – as the photographs illustrate. “In 2019, chassis 003 was submitted for the all-important Ferrari Classiche certification – certification it duly received, confirming the originality of the chassis, engine and gearbox.” As Ferrari won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2023 for the first time since 1965, so new light has been cast on the Prancing Horse’s star-studded back catalogue of endurance competition cars. And given its extraordinary competition longevity and stunning record of results, the F333 SP is a car which absolutely deserves to be held among the greatest of them all – 250 P, 330 P4 and 312 PB included. To say we’re honoured to be offering chassis 003 would be an understatement of epic proportions: this car has so many alluring strings to its bow, not least its origins in Maranello and near decade-long competition career in both America and Europe, encompassing five outright victories and the world’s greatest endurance motor races from Daytona to Le Mans. That it won the 12 Hours of Sebring is a remarkable achievement, especially given the Prancing Horse’s then 23-year absence from the race. That it’s one of only two Ferrari chassis in history to have done it twice is nothing short of miraculous. This F333 SP’s string of mere four private owners in almost 30 years, its painstaking recent restoration and maintenance work and its Ferrari Classiche certification are crowning characteristics. To return this most special of Ferraris to the racetrack, either as part of Ferrari’s ultra-exclusive F1 Clienti programme or either of the burgeoning Endurance Racing Legends series, would be an experience to cherish forever.

  • 1970-alfa-romeo-junior-zagato-1300

    The Alfa Romeo Junior Zagato 1300 is one of the most distinctive models to emerge from the post-war era of Italian automotive design. Built between 1969 and 1972 in a limited production run of approximately 1,100 units, this coupé combines the renowned Alfa Romeo Spider platform with a unique body designed by Zagato – famous for its lightweight construction and aerodynamic styling. The 1290cc four-cylinder engine delivers 89 horsepower, paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox. With a kerb weight of around 920 kg, the Junior Zagato offers excellent performance and sharp handling – especially notable for its time. The bodywork, made entirely of steel with an aluminum bonnet, stands out thanks to its sloped nose, recessed headlights, and an innovative glass rear hatch system – revolutionary in both design and function at the time. This model is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of Italian sports cars, not only for its rarity but also for its authentic driving experience and unique aesthetic appeal. This particular example first took to the road in Italy in June 1970. In 2009, it was acquired by its first Dutch owner. At that time, the car was fitted with a more powerful 1600cc engine, but the original matching 1300cc engine had been preserved and was included separately. In 2013, the car changed hands again, this time to a well-known Dutch Alfista. He began a careful restoration, taking his time and aiming to preserve as much originality as possible. The body was stripped and repainted, revealing surprisingly solid panels – a rarity for Alfa Romeos of this era. The interior was refurbished, and the gearbox was rebuilt. In 2017, the car was purchased by its most recent owner, a respected collector of classic automobiles. His goal was to reinstall the original matching 1300cc engine, which was still stored separately with the vehicle. Before being refitted, the engine was fully rebuilt. Once all restoration work was completed and the car became part of an impressive private collection, it was only sparingly driven. 1970 Alfa Romeo Junior Zagato 1300 Veni Vidi Vici Classic Cars BV If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1957 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster 2

    Completed by the factory in May 1957, this 300 SL Roadster was completed in ‘Elfenbein DB608’ (Ivory) over a red leather interior. Options on the build sheet include dials ‘re-written’ in English as this example was dispatched to the Mercedes-Benz in London. Supplied new to it first keeper in 1958, this 300 SL Roadster was the 16th car completed and first owned by Samuel McCrudden Jnr, proprietor of a linen and handkerchief business in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Ownership is documented by a scan of the Buff logbook in the car's accompanying history folio. His ownership was brief and the car moved back to England a year later finding residence in Berkshire with Aspro family member Maurice Nicholas, early developers of Aspirin in the 1900s. Initially their tablet had been called Nicholas' Aspirin; but later the product name was changed to Aspro formed from the last two letters of the name 'Nicholas', and the first three of the word 'Product'. The 300 SL was then sold by dealership H.R. Owen to aristocrat, wartime secret-agent, racing driver and naturalist Gavin Maxwell of Ross-shire, Scotland. A keen conservationist, Maxwell split his time between London and Scotland, driving between the two in a series of pre-war Bentleys, including a Corsica-bodied example. Maxwell would go on to own a second 300 SL roadster, the first car notably proved its engineering pedigree with a race from Sandaig to Glasgow for an otter-related emergency. A keen and enthusiastic driver, Maxwell’s biography regales adventures in 300 SLs, one of which Maxwell drove “at fantastic speed on the Moroccan roads — up to 140 mph at times, averaging nearly 98 mph from Marrakesh to Mogador...!” In 1970, the 300 SL found home with the previous and long-term form keeper. Owning the car for 33 years, well-known classic racer Mr Forsdyke took the car off the road and placed it in storage. With the intention of carrying out a total restoration, the car instead sat for an extended period in storage in a partly dismantled state. Purchased by its current custodian in 2003, a decision was made to bare-metal restore the 300 SL Roadster. Opting for the period correct shade of Anthracite Grey (DB172), the comprehensive restoration was carried out on-and-off for 15 years with Kevin O' Keeffe Restorations at a cost of £320,000. Upon completion, the roadster was wholly covered in bespoke paint protection film. Since restoration the car has covered just 2,900 miles and presents superbly. This wonderful 300 SL roadster is available to view at our showrooms outside London immediately, accompanied by an original hardtop, period tool kit with jack of the correct type, restoration file and history folio. Furthermore, an inspection report by 300 SL specialist Martin Cushway is available. 1957 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster D.K.
