- 1964-chevrolet-corvette-c2-convertible
Let’s talk about American Muscle! The Corvette – now in its 8th generation – but oh, the first generations remain irresistible. The C2 Stingray? That was the heartthrob of the class, always with the prettiest girl by its side. American innovation? Absolutely! With the C2, it wasn’t just about raw engine performance. The hidden headlights and independent rear suspension were groundbreaking at the time. And this example… This one undoubtedly belongs on the wall of many a boy’s room. Delivered in 1964 in the Sunshine State, Florida, cherished by only two American owners. In 2008, it found its way to a German collector, who has lovingly kept this Corvette in top shape. The purchase was no accident: he specifically chose this American example for its excellent condition, making the import to the EU more than worthwhile. In the past few years, he has invested over €20,000 to keep the car in prime condition. And it gets even better: this C2 comes with both a softtop and hardtop – a complete full set, as they say. All invoices and documents are present and neatly kept. Are you ready to get behind the wheel of this American legend?

- 1960 Jaguar XK150 DHC
The XK150 was the successor to the XK120 and XK140. The type name referred to the cars top speed in miles per hour. In reality, the 150 just missed that speed, but at 135 mph it was one of the fastest production cars in the world at the time. However, that disappointment did not stop there, because these are beautiful cars! And let's be honest. 135mph in an XK150. You really don't need anything louder. The XK150 distinguishes itself from its predecessors by its curved windscreen, which consists of one whole instead of a split window. The hood of the XK120 was divided in two and fitted with a decorative strip, which also resulted in a slightly wider grille. The windshield has been moved slightly back, making the front look a little longer. Our XK 150 3.8 DHC comes from Eberhard Thiesen and has been completely restored to originality, including a heritage certificate indicating that the car has matching numbers. Whether you're looking for a solid XK150 or just want to experience the thrill of driving a true classic, this Jaguar offers both. You no longer have to worry about the bodywork or technology with this copy. And as soon as you feel the power steering in overdrive on the merge lane on the highway, all worries disappear at the same time. 1960 Jaguar XK150 DHC Cool Classic Club If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1992-honda-acura-nsx-1
You might be wondering why we included two shots in the photo series of our NSX, one showing our NSX next to arguably the most important supercar of all time – the McLaren F1 – and the next, the Gordon Murray T.50. Both from a virtually identical perspective to our NSX. Both the McLaren F1 and the Gordon Murray T50 were designed by a designer who, even during his lifetime, was mentioned in the same sentence as designers like Colin Chapman, Ferdinand Porsche, Ettore Bugatti, and a few other brilliant minds in this field. He is considered one of the most important automobile designers/engineers of all time. And now guess which car none other than Gordon Murray was significantly inspired and guided by when, after being tasked with designing the McLaren F1, he set out to create a supercar that would align with his aspirations and vision – to emulate the best of the best and, if possible, to do it as well as possible, or even better. It shouldn't be anything less. You already guessed it? Exactly. It was the Honda NSX. After comparative driving with virtually all supercars of the era, he determined that this Honda NSX was the benchmark against which he should measure himself. After extensive driving at Honda's Tochigi proving ground in one of the NSX prototypes, where he was invited by one of the greatest and most gifted racing drivers – Ayrton Senna – the Honda NSX became the benchmark to be achieved. Due to his Formula 1 career at McLaren – which at the time was powered by Honda engines – Senna had taken on the task of tuning the Honda NSX chassis, playing a key role in practical test driving. Gordon Murray was immediately impressed by the outstanding results of this chassis development, and from that moment on, the NSX's qualities became the benchmark for the ongoing development of his McLaren F1. The Honda NSX became the benchmark to be achieved. According to his own reflection in an interview, Murray drove many laps of the Tochigi Research Center together with Ron Dennis (President of McLaren Cars) and Mansour Ojjeh (TAG McLaren Group Representative), which he describes as follows: "I remember being moved and thinking, 'It's remarkable how our vision is coming through in this car!'" Of course, the engine only has six cylinders. However, the NSX's very stiff chassis is excellent and could easily handle more power. Although I initially thought it would have been better to use a larger engine before driving it, the moment I drove the "small" one, and all the benchmark cars – Ferrari, Porsche, Lamborghini – that I used as references in developing my car (the McLaren F1) also disappeared from my mind. Of course, the car we were going to develop had to be faster than the NSX, but the ride quality and handling of the NSX would become our new design goal." You can find the full interview here, which is well worth reading: A Car Dear to My Heart Perhaps we should mention at this point, just in case, that the previous "benchmark cars" that Gordon Murray mentioned in the interview were not just any Ferraris, Porsches, etc., but specifically the Porsche 959, the Bugatti EB110, the Ferrari F40, the Jaguar XJ220, and other models of similar caliber. We'd like to share one more passage from the long interview worth reading: The air conditioning, for example, is almost undetectable in use and so effective that I set the temperature and pressed the "Auto" button once when I first took delivery of my NSX – and then never touched it again. The car's drive-by-wire throttle – another first – was so linear and natural in its operation that I stole the idea for the McLaren F1 wholesale. The development costs of the NSX must have been enormous. Everything on it is unique. The chassis, powertrain, and even the air conditioning system are unparalleled. That aluminum body was very expensive. The numerous hurdles the NSX overcame to reach production in areas such as spot welding, corrosion, and repairability make it a monumental work in automotive history. The philosophy of creating a car for people is evident throughout. If it were me, I probably wouldn't be obsessed with the aluminum and would have settled for a steel structure with aluminum panels to try to achieve a similar weight reduction. But what I really want to emphasize is the chassis/suspension. It's a groundbreaking use of aluminum." Or we recall an issue of the magazine "sportauto" from the early 1990s, in which Mr. Horst von Sauma, the magazine's chief tester, included the Nurburgring's Nordschleife as a regular feature of his super tests, where each test car had to prove itself. In a comparison test on the Nordschleife, the recently introduced Honda NSX was pitted against the Ferrari 348 and the Porsche 964 Carrera 2 to determine the individual test vehicles' qualities. The Honda NSX beat the two aforementioned test participants by many seconds per lap, which was a major shock in this category and vehicle class. But that was only the beginning, because at the time of the NSX's market launch, all journalists and testers without exception gave the Honda NSX outstanding marks. The surprise was a success, because Honda, until then exclusively focused on small and mid-size cars, launched the NSX; A super sports car that challenged established dream cars like the Ferrari 348 TB and the Porsche 911 Carrera 2 – only to beat these two models in independent comparison tests. That's all for now, dear reader. Regarding the Honda Acura NSX you just received, we'll let the photos speak for themselves and will soon provide you with all the further information that makes this particular example so appealing. You can rest assured that this is a pure sports car. Despite its air conditioning, sound system, power windows, and "small" 3.0 V6 engine. We completely agree with Gordon Murray, whose personal car was a Honda NSX for over six or seven years and 75,000 km. And that was long after the McLaren F1 had been launched and sold...at least, he said in this recent interview during the launch of his new T.50 super sports car that he hadn't seen another car since the early 1990s that was just as suitable for the daily commute to the office in central London as it was for a spontaneous short trip to the South of France, sometimes with a quick stop at the Nürburgring.... 1992 Honda Acura NSX DLS Automobile If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright You might be wondering why we included two shots in the photo series of our NSX, one showing our NSX next to arguably the most important supercar of all time – the McLaren F1 – and the next, the Gordon Murray T.50. Both from a virtually identical perspective to our NSX. Both the McLaren F1 and the Gordon Murray T50 were designed by a designer who, even during his lifetime, was mentioned in the same sentence as designers like Colin Chapman, Ferdinand Porsche, Ettore Bugatti, and a few other brilliant minds in this field. He is considered one of the most important automobile designers/engineers of all time. And now guess which car none other than Gordon Murray was significantly inspired and guided by when, after being tasked with designing the McLaren F1, he set out to create a supercar that would align with his aspirations and vision – to emulate the best of the best and, if possible, to do it as well as possible, or even better. It shouldn't be anything less. You already guessed it? Exactly. It was the Honda NSX. After comparative driving with virtually all supercars of the era, he determined that this Honda NSX was the benchmark against which he should measure himself.

With its combination of a powerful, fuel-injected V8 engine and sharp styling, the Aston Martin DBS is rightly renowned as being one of the finest GT cars of its era, and this particular car is presented in exceptional condition throughout. Supplied new by HR Owen on 14 October 1971, it was specified with the three-speed automatic transmission, which is perfectly suited to both the torque-rich 5.3-litre engine and the car’s ‘grand touring’ nature. In recent years, the DBS has benefitted from a full restoration by renowned marque specialist Aston Engineering. The process is thoroughly documented in the car’s history file and included extensive work on the body ahead of a bare-metal respray in its original colour of Pacific Blue. The front and rear suspension was also fully rebuilt, and Aston Engineering fitted its handling-kit upgrade as well as a rear telescopic-damper conversion. The braking system and power steering were overhauled, the differential was rebuilt, and a complete stainless-steel exhaust system was installed. The finishing touch was a full interior retrim in Autocalf Dark Tan leather with Wilton Sandstorm carpet, and there’s a nice period touch in the shape of a Radiomobile 8-Track player. Beautifully finished throughout, and featuring well-chosen upgrades that further enhance the driving experience, this matching-numbers Aston Martin DBS is a superb example of this muscular British classic. 1971 Aston Martin DBS V8 The Classic Motor Hub If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Boiling Point Pressure. Ultimately, that’s what led to the creation of the Ferrari’s legendary 512 BB/LM Group 5 sports-racing cars. You see, Il Commendatore was a notoriously stubborn man. And not always for the right reasons. While he initially saw no potential – and thus showed zero interest – in a competition variant of his marque’s flagship twelve-cylinder Berlinetta Boxer, his close friend and American concessionaire Luigi Chinetti did. Chinetti’s North American Racing Team (N.A.R.T.) had enjoyed great success with Ferrari’s prototype and GT racing cars in the 1960s and ’70s. And unsurprisingly, Chinetti wielded great commercial influence in Maranello, thanks to the incredibly lucrative nature of his American market. It took N.A.R.T. to build its own radically reengineered Ferrari 365 GT4 BB racer and record impressive finishes at Daytona, Sebring and Le Mans for Enzo to take note. Perhaps the elegant mid-engined supercar had the minerals after all. Sure enough, at the French endurance classic in the summer of 1978, Ferrari supplied three five-litre BB Competiziones, developed with input from the Formula 1 team’s chief engineer Mauro Forghieri. Among his more intriguing ideas was the aluminium rear wing, which actually began life as the front wing on the 312 T3 Grand Prix car. Ferrari could no longer resist the idea of a 512 with which to try and win the world’s greatest endurance races. Veiled in secrecy deep in the factory’s Assistenza Clienti department, ingegneri Giuseppe Girotti and Gaetano Florini were spearheading the development of a bona-fide competition version of the 512 BB, for the hotly-contested Group 5 ‘Special Production’ category. Unlike the three hastily-constructed cars it supplied for Le Mans in 1978, this second evolution – christened the BB/LM – was a thoroughly developed, no-corners-cut endurance racer. Lucas mechanical fuel injection, an enhanced cooling system, a strengthened gearbox and bespoke Gotti alloy wheels shod with Michelin TR-X rubber were just a handful of the modifications made. In addition, the suspension and braking systems were entirely overhauled, while both the front and rear tracks were widened. Ferrari drafted in Pininfarina, that age-old engineer of elegance with which it had worked so closely in the 1950s and ’60s, to hone the mid-engined supercar’s bodywork for Le Mans’ six-kilometre Mulsanne Straight. Extensive work was carried out in the Torinese carrozzeria’s Grugliasco wind tunnel, resulting in a sleeker wind-cheating and utterly beautiful ‘silhouette’ that Ferrari somewhat ambitiously reported it had clocked at 212mph in testing. Punchy. “Ferrari drafted in Pininfarina, that age-old engineer of elegance with which it had worked so closely in the 1950s and ’60s, to hone the mid-engined supercar’s bodywork for Le Mans.” On a frigid rainy morning in January of 1979, a plane touched down at John F. Kennedy Airport carrying three brand new Ferrari 512 BB/LMs – the first three of the nine second-generation cars built by the end of 1979. Their end destination? The Daytona 24 Hours. While one car was earmarked for Chinetti’s N.A.R.T. outfit, the other two were designated to the French Ferrari concessionaire Charles Pozzi. The 512 BB/LM we’re honoured to be offering, chassis number 26685, was the second of those two cars. Michelin, whose fancy new radial tyres were fitted to the BB/LMs, took the opportunity to hire the Daytona circuit a full week before the race, granting the Pozzi team invaluable testing time with its new Ferraris. Entered into the top-flight IMSA GTX category, this car was assigned the number 67 and earmarked for French drivers Claude Ballot-Léna and Michel Leclère. And come qualifying, chassis 26685 was the quickest of the three 512s, lapping the famous banked racetrack in 1min57.3sec. The Daytona 24 Hours in 1979 marked the Ferrari 512 BB/LM’s competitive debut – chassis number 26685 was one of three examples entered Alas, the race was a less straightforward affair. Unusually high tyre wear on the sister Pozzi car of Jean-Claude Andruet prompted an early pit-stop around 90 minutes in to the 24-hour marathon. And when N.A.R.T.’s entry suffered a scary high-speed blowout exiting the banking, resulting in an accident and subsequent retirement, both Michelin and the Pozzi bosses rightly decided to err on the side of caution and withdraw both its entries after just four hours. Until then, chassis 26685 was running in an excellent seventh position. What could have been… Next up for this Ferrari was the 24 Hours of Le Mans in June, not only the jewel in endurance racing’s crown but the Pozzi outfit’s home race. In preparation, the French team had conducted a 24-hour test at Le Castellet with both of its BB/LMs – a test which, by all accounts, was a resounding success. The stage was set. This Ferrari’s striking Jean Fougerol-designed ‘clouds’ livery proved a real talking point at Le Mans in 1979 Ahead of the main event, Pozzi commissioned the French artist Jean Fougerol to refinish its brace of 512s in a fabulous hand-painted Pop Art-inspired livery depicting powder-blue clouds and white birds. The two BB/LMs differed only in their numbers and their title sponsors – this car was assigned the number 63 and adorned with the logos of 3M. The driver line-up for chassis 26685 remained the same as it did earlier in the year at Daytona: Claude Ballot-Léna and Michel Leclère. It was the latter who, at the close of qualifying, once again recorded the quickest lap of the four BB/LMs entered: a smidgen over the four-minute mark. Alas, it was also Leclère who, having clawed his way into the top 10 after an impressive drive through the night, agonisingly retired at eight o’clock in the morning after a sudden downpour and subsequent contretemps with a slower car. This Ferrari’s third and final competitive outing came in the 1980 24 Hours of Le Mans, where its entry was part-funded by the European University This Ferrari’s third and final competitive outing came 12 months later at the very same event: the 1980 24 Hours of Le Mans. This time around, Pozzi fielded three BB/LMs, all finished in the striking blue and yellow colour scheme of the European University in Belgium. Chassis 26685 ran with the number 75 and was due to be driven by Lucien Guitteny and Gérard Bleynie. Once again, however, bad luck plagued this Ferrari and an accident forced retirement in the seventh hour. The sister car of Jean Xhenceval, Pierre Dieudonné and Hervé Regout clinched a well-deserved class podium for the French outfit. The car was returned to Ferrari to be repaired and, with the factory’s blessing, sent to Pininfarina to be rebodied in the more aerodynamically advanced second-evolution bodywork, in which the last 16 BB/LMs were dressed. Its competitive duties complete, chassis 26685 was sold to Prince Pierre Sanguszko – a prominent member of the Polish aristocracy who was a close friend of the Pozzi boss Daniel Merin. In his castle in Senlis, France, this Ferrari lived happily alongside a number of incredibly special motorcars, including the Iso Grifo A3/C famously once owned by the French rock ‘n’ roll legend Johnny Hallyday. Sanguszko passed away in 1992 and this BB/LM passed through the hands of a small number of French owners before it was acquired by the well-known British Ferrari collector Nigel Chiltern-Hunt just before the New Millennium. Chiltern-Hunt commissioned a ground-up restoration, including the reapplication of its iconic Jean Fougerol livery. Upon completion, chassis 26685 was returned to the racetrack at the 2001 Historic Festival at Rockingham. It made several further outings at Ferrari Owners’ Club UK Concours meetings until 2010, when it was acquired by Jacques Bajol and returned to France. It’s important to note that by this point, this BB/LM had been submitted for and received its full red-book Ferrari Classiche certification, confirming the originality of the chassis, engine and gearbox, in addition to the provenance. “This BB/LM received its full red-book Ferrari Classiche certification in 2008, confirming the originality of the chassis, engine and gearbox, in addition to the provenance.” In what was an especially memorable occasion, at the 2012 Le Mans Classic, chassis 26685 was returned to the Circuit de la Sarthe for the first time since it competed there in 1980 and reunited with its sister Pozzi car, chassis number 26681, famously finished in the same Jean Fougerol ‘clouds’ livery. This 512 BB/LM’s was acquired by its penultimate owner, a Swiss collector and historic racing driver, in 2019. As a friend of Claude Ballot-Lena, he’d long been hunting for a car raced by the Frenchman in period. This Ferrari more than fitted the bill. With a view to returning the Ferrari to the racetrack for the first time in 40 years, while preserving its incredible originality, he commissioned Tommaso Gelmini’s renowned GPS Classics outfit in Italy to prepare the car to modern historic racing safety standards. The Historic Technical Passport was acquired in 2019, and remains valid until 2029. Pleasingly, the owner capitalised on the extraordinary eligibility of this Ferrari, entering it in a plethora of historic motorsport meetings – including Peter Auto’s Historic events at Monza, Vallelunga and Paul Ricard, and, in the summer of 2022, the Le Mans Classic. An enticing thought for the next custodian is that there are still many events at which this 512 BB/LM would be welcomed with open arms. Personally, we’re not sure we’d be able to resist returning it to the hallowed banking of the Daytona International Speedway, where chassis 26685 first turned a wheel in anger, for the popular HSR Classic Daytona meeting. To truly appreciate the historical significance of the 512 BB/LM, it’s important to frame it in the context of the Prancing Horse’s competition history – more specifically the trajectory it followed in the decades after this car hung up its figurative boots. You see, every Ferrari entry at Le Mans since then – immortal machines such as the F40 LM, 333 SP, 550 Maranello, F430 GTC and 488 GTE – has been built by a third party with the factory’s blessing. That makes the 25 BB/LMs which left Ferrari’s Assistenza Clienti department the marque’s final in-house-built sports-racing cars to have raced in the world’s greatest endurance competition. The third example built, chassis number 26685 distinguishes itself further in a number of significant ways. Not least its competition résumé, which comprises the two most prestigious endurance motor races, and its Pop Art livery, which is arguably the most famous and recognisable of all the 512s which raced. The beguiling originality, full red-book Ferrari Classiche certification and extraordinary eligibility in today’s historic motoring world are the proverbial cherries on the cake. “The 25 BB/LMs which left Ferrari’s Assistenza Clienti department the marque’s final in-house-built sports-racing cars to have raced in the world’s greatest endurance competition.” Hailing from a fondly-remembered and hotly-contested era of endurance racing, this ultra-special EU-taxes-paid Ferrari 512 BB/LM is in the esteemed company of the very finest thoroughbred Prancing Horses in the marque’s storied history. 1979 Ferrari 512 BB/LM Group 5 Girardo & Co.

Ultimately, that’s what led to the creation of the Ferrari’s legendary 512 BB/LM Group 5 sports-racing cars. You see, Il Commendatore was a notoriously stubborn man. And not always for the right reasons. While he initially saw no potential – and thus showed zero interest – in a competition variant of his marque’s flagship twelve-cylinder Berlinetta Boxer, his close friend and American concessionaire Luigi Chinetti did. Chinetti’s North American Racing Team (N.A.R.T.) had enjoyed great success with Ferrari’s prototype and GT racing cars in the 1960s and ’70s. And unsurprisingly, Chinetti wielded great commercial influence in Maranello, thanks to the incredibly lucrative nature of his American market. It took N.A.R.T. to build its own radically reengineered Ferrari 365 GT4 BB racer and record impressive finishes at Daytona, Sebring and Le Mans for Enzo to take note. Perhaps the elegant mid-engined supercar had the minerals after all. Sure enough, at the French endurance classic in the summer of 1978, Ferrari supplied three five-litre BB Competiziones, developed with input from the Formula 1 team’s chief engineer Mauro Forghieri. Among his more intriguing ideas was the aluminium rear wing, which actually began life as the front wing on the 312 T3 Grand Prix car. Ferrari could no longer resist the idea of a 512 with which to try and win the world’s greatest endurance races. Veiled in secrecy deep in the factory’s Assistenza Clienti department, ingegneri Giuseppe Girotti and Gaetano Florini were spearheading the development of a bona-fide competition version of the 512 BB, for the hotly-contested Group 5 ‘Special Production’ category. Unlike the three hastily-constructed cars it supplied for Le Mans in 1978, this second evolution – christened the BB/LM – was a thoroughly developed, no-corners-cut endurance racer. Lucas mechanical fuel injection, an enhanced cooling system, a strengthened gearbox and bespoke Gotti alloy wheels shod with Michelin TR-X rubber were just a handful of the modifications made. In addition, the suspension and braking systems were entirely overhauled, while both the front and rear tracks were widened. Ferrari drafted in Pininfarina, that age-old engineer of elegance with which it had worked so closely in the 1950s and ’60s, to hone the mid-engined supercar’s bodywork for Le Mans’ six-kilometre Mulsanne Straight. Extensive work was carried out in the Torinese carrozzeria’s Grugliasco wind tunnel, resulting in a sleeker wind-cheating and utterly beautiful ‘silhouette’ that Ferrari somewhat ambitiously reported it had clocked at 212mph in testing. Punchy. “Ferrari drafted in Pininfarina, that age-old engineer of elegance with which it had worked so closely in the 1950s and ’60s, to hone the mid-engined supercar’s bodywork for Le Mans.” On a frigid rainy morning in January of 1979, a plane touched down at John F. Kennedy Airport carrying three brand new Ferrari 512 BB/LMs – the first three of the nine second-generation cars built by the end of 1979. Their end destination? The Daytona 24 Hours. While one car was earmarked for Chinetti’s N.A.R.T. outfit, the other two were designated to the French Ferrari concessionaire Charles Pozzi. The 512 BB/LM we’re honoured to be offering, chassis number 26685, was the second of those two cars. Michelin, whose fancy new radial tyres were fitted to the BB/LMs, took the opportunity to hire the Daytona circuit a full week before the race, granting the Pozzi team invaluable testing time with its new Ferraris. Entered into the top-flight IMSA GTX category, this car was assigned the number 67 and earmarked for French drivers Claude Ballot-Léna and Michel Leclère. And come qualifying, chassis 26685 was the quickest of the three 512s, lapping the famous banked racetrack in 1min57.3sec. The Daytona 24 Hours in 1979 marked the Ferrari 512 BB/LM’s competitive debut – chassis number 26685 was one of three examples entered Alas, the race was a less straightforward affair. Unusually high tyre wear on the sister Pozzi car of Jean-Claude Andruet prompted an early pit-stop around 90 minutes in to the 24-hour marathon. And when N.A.R.T.’s entry suffered a scary high-speed blowout exiting the banking, resulting in an accident and subsequent retirement, both Michelin and the Pozzi bosses rightly decided to err on the side of caution and withdraw both its entries after just four hours. Until then, chassis 26685 was running in an excellent seventh position. What could have been… Next up for this Ferrari was the 24 Hours of Le Mans in June, not only the jewel in endurance racing’s crown but the Pozzi outfit’s home race. In preparation, the French team had conducted a 24-hour test at Le Castellet with both of its BB/LMs – a test which, by all accounts, was a resounding success. The stage was set. This Ferrari’s striking Jean Fougerol-designed ‘clouds’ livery proved a real talking point at Le Mans in 1979 Ahead of the main event, Pozzi commissioned the French artist Jean Fougerol to refinish its brace of 512s in a fabulous hand-painted Pop Art-inspired livery depicting powder-blue clouds and white birds. The two BB/LMs differed only in their numbers and their title sponsors – this car was assigned the number 63 and adorned with the logos of 3M. The driver line-up for chassis 26685 remained the same as it did earlier in the year at Daytona: Claude Ballot-Léna and Michel Leclère. It was the latter who, at the close of qualifying, once again recorded the quickest lap of the four BB/LMs entered: a smidgen over the four-minute mark. Alas, it was also Leclère who, having clawed his way into the top 10 after an impressive drive through the night, agonisingly retired at eight o’clock in the morning after a sudden downpour and subsequent contretemps with a slower car. This Ferrari’s third and final competitive outing came in the 1980 24 Hours of Le Mans, where its entry was part-funded by the European University This Ferrari’s third and final competitive outing came 12 months later at the very same event: the 1980 24 Hours of Le Mans. This time around, Pozzi fielded three BB/LMs, all finished in the striking blue and yellow colour scheme of the European University in Belgium. Chassis 26685 ran with the number 75 and was due to be driven by Lucien Guitteny and Gérard Bleynie. Once again, however, bad luck plagued this Ferrari and an accident forced retirement in the seventh hour. The sister car of Jean Xhenceval, Pierre Dieudonné and Hervé Regout clinched a well-deserved class podium for the French outfit. The car was returned to Ferrari to be repaired and, with the factory’s blessing, sent to Pininfarina to be rebodied in the more aerodynamically advanced second-evolution bodywork, in which the last 16 BB/LMs were dressed. Its competitive duties complete, chassis 26685 was sold to Prince Pierre Sanguszko – a prominent member of the Polish aristocracy who was a close friend of the Pozzi boss Daniel Merin. In his castle in Senlis, France, this Ferrari lived happily alongside a number of incredibly special motorcars, including the Iso Grifo A3/C famously once owned by the French rock ‘n’ roll legend Johnny Hallyday. Sanguszko passed away in 1992 and this BB/LM passed through the hands of a small number of French owners before it was acquired by the well-known British Ferrari collector Nigel Chiltern-Hunt just before the New Millennium. Chiltern-Hunt commissioned a ground-up restoration, including the reapplication of its iconic Jean Fougerol livery. Upon completion, chassis 26685 was returned to the racetrack at the 2001 Historic Festival at Rockingham. It made several further outings at Ferrari Owners’ Club UK Concours meetings until 2010, when it was acquired by Jacques Bajol and returned to France. It’s important to note that by this point, this BB/LM had been submitted for and received its full red-book Ferrari Classiche certification, confirming the originality of the chassis, engine and gearbox, in addition to the provenance. “This BB/LM received its full red-book Ferrari Classiche certification in 2008, confirming the originality of the chassis, engine and gearbox, in addition to the provenance.” In what was an especially memorable occasion, at the 2012 Le Mans Classic, chassis 26685 was returned to the Circuit de la Sarthe for the first time since it competed there in 1980 and reunited with its sister Pozzi car, chassis number 26681, famously finished in the same Jean Fougerol ‘clouds’ livery.

- 1970 Porsche 914/6
Completed at the factory in February 1970, this rare Porsche 914/6 was finished in Light Ivory over a black leatherette interior, just as it appears today. This six-cylinder Porsche was prepared for the US market and equipped with an electric heated rear window, Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio, a leather steering wheel, and chrome whole disk wheels. Remarkably, the original bill of sale is on file from Holbert’s Porsche Audi in Warrington, Pennsylvania and reveals the $6,817 purchase price. Holbert’s was an important early Porsche dealership established by racecar driver Bob Holbert, father of five-time IMSA Camel GT champion Al Holbert; in fact, correspondence between Al and this car’s first owner is on file, with the younger Holbert apologizing for the delayed delivery of driving lights for the 914/6—and refunding the buyer $32.50! The Porsche remained under the care of the original owner for over three decades, and an incredibly thorough collection of invoices from this ownership tenure are found within the accompanying history file. Well over 100 pages are present and detail all the repairs and maintenance performed in order to keep the car in good running order. Thanks to the diligence of this owner, the car was enjoyed on the road and today, 86,898 miles show on the odometer at the time of cataloguing. Importantly, as shown on the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, the car has retained its matching-numbers engine and gearbox, which further increases the desirability of this machine. In 2018, the White Collection acquired the car, and it has received monthly start-ups to ensure the mechanical systems are functioning. Paint meter readings across the body show to be largely consistent; however, the driver’s side rear quarter panel received a respray at some point in the past. Owner’s books, tools, an assortment of spare parts, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, and a large collection of invoices will accompany the car. The beneficiary of long-term original ownership and presented in its striking original color combination, the desirability of this 914/6 is further increased thanks to its matching-numbers engine and transmission, overall originality, and extensive documentation. These nimble, yet powerful, 914/6s are true Porsche creations and are not to be underestimated: They deliver the kind of driving experience one would expect from this iconic automobile manufacturer and are increasingly sought-after by enthusiasts. 1970 Porsche 914/6 RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright Completed at the factory in February 1970, this rare Porsche 914/6 was finished in Light Ivory over a black leatherette interior, just as it appears today. This six-cylinder Porsche was prepared for the US market and equipped with an electric heated rear window, Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio, a leather steering wheel, and chrome whole disk wheels. Remarkably, the original bill of sale is on file from Holbert’s Porsche Audi in Warrington, Pennsylvania and reveals the $6,817 purchase price. Holbert’s was an important early Porsche dealership established by racecar driver Bob Holbert, father of five-time IMSA Camel GT champion Al Holbert; in fact, correspondence between Al and this car’s first owner is on file, with the younger Holbert apologizing for the delayed delivery of driving lights for the 914/6—and refunding the buyer $32.50! The Porsche remained under the care of the original owner for over three decades, and an incredibly thorough collection of invoices from this ownership tenure are found within the accompanying history file. Well over 100 pages are present and detail all the repairs and maintenance performed in order to keep the car in good running order. Thanks to the diligence of this owner, the car was enjoyed on the road and today, 86,898 miles show on the odometer at the time of cataloguing. Importantly, as shown on the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, the car has retained its matching-numbers engine and gearbox, which further increases the desirability of this machine. In 2018, the White Collection acquired the car, and it has received monthly start-ups to ensure the mechanical systems are functioning. Paint meter readings across the body show to be largely consistent; however, the driver’s side rear quarter panel received a respray at some point in the past. Owner’s books, tools, an assortment of spare parts, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, and a large collection of invoices will accompany the car. The beneficiary of long-term original ownership and presented in its striking original color combination, the desirability of this 914/6 is further increased thanks to its matching-numbers engine and transmission, overall originality, and extensive documentation. These nimble, yet powerful, 914/6s are true Porsche creations and are not to be underestimated: They deliver the kind of driving experience one would expect from this iconic automobile manufacturer and are increasingly sought-after by enthusiasts.

- 1995 Honda NSX-R
Recently sourced from Japan, The Cultivated Collector's 1995 Honda NSX-R is a prime example of the breed. Chassis 0349 presents impeccably today in the iconic Championship White over red colorway, showing just over 23k KM from new and presenting in highly original condition. Accompanying the sale of 0349 will be Japanese service records from new, manuals, NSX Press VHS, as well as all books and keys. With significant recent engine out servicing, 0349 is at the top of its game needing nothing - eagerly awaiting to devour open stretches of highway or winding country back roads. In the mid-eighties Honda engineers were experimenting with various engine and chassis layouts in an effort to explore viability for future products. One such experiment saw the Honda engineers take a Honda City, cut it in half, and install the engine behind the driver's seat. Much to the delight of the engineers, after an extensive number of thrilling laps around the parking lot, this unsuspecting test mule led to inspiring the Honda board to decide that they would create a pure sports car, and thus the beginning of the NSX was born. Honda would consort with automotive design legends Pininfarina to create a concept car called the Honda Pininfarina Experimental, referred to as HP-X, showcasing Honda’s foray into the mid-engine sports car world. Management at Honda provided lofty goals for the engineering team, simply requesting that this new sports car would need to be as fast as anything from their German and Italian competitors, while offering Honda reliability and a highly competitive price. With this direction, work began on evolving the HP-X concept car into a working prototype that would be referred to as NS-X, standing for “New Sportscar Experimental”, with an intention to showcase numerous automotive technologies that Honda derived from its wealth of knowledge in the Formula 1 world. The backbone of success for the NSX would lie in its all-aluminum semi-monocoque, a first for a production car, incorporating a revolutionary extruded aluminum alloy frame and suspension components saving a significant 441lbs over traditional steel construction. Nestled in the middle of the car, just behind the driver and passenger seats, would be the heart of the NSX - Honda’s brand new C30A engine, a 3.0 liter V6 debuting their brand-new proprietary VTEC variable valve timing system. The chassis and powertrain isn’t where the motorsport connection stopped. Honda further leaned on their robust motorsports division to aid in developing the NSX into a truly capable track weapon, leveraging the successful hands of 3x Formula 1 World Drivers Champion Ayrton Senna and highly respected Formula 1 driver Satoru Nakajima, with both working tirelessly to fine tune chassis stiffness and suspension characteristics through seemingly endless test sessions at the Suzuka Circuit and the Nurburgring. The end product of this painstakingly thorough test and tuning regime was a chassis stiffness increase of over 50%, while retaining a near minimal impact to overall weight and the cars handling capabilities. Released to the public in 1991, the NSX was an immediate sensation with enthusiasts and journalists alike. Car & Driver, after extensive testing, noted “the low, forward, cockpit is exhilarating… like riding in the head of an arrow” and of the car’s responsiveness stated, “it's so precise in its responses, as if it were hard-wired into my cerebellum." Despite the NSX being well received, Honda engineers had to make compromises to meet a healthy balance between daily driveability and raw performance. It was decided that for those customers seeking a truly no-bars-hold racing experience, Honda unleashed to the world in late 1992 the revered NSX Type-R. Honda engineers began the NSX Type-R development by putting the already svelte NSX on an extremely aggressive diet to aid in weight savings. Sound deadening, the audio system, spare tire, air conditioning system and traction control, along with some of the electrical equipment, were completely removed, while the heavy leather electric seats were replaced with fixed back carbon-kevlar racing seats from Recaro designed specifically for Honda. To reduce unsprung weight, Honda chose to replace the standard forged alloy wheels with lightweight forged aluminum wheels from Enkei. This extreme approach to weight savings saw the NSX Type-R weighing in at an astonishing 265lbs lighter than its standard NSX sibling, for a total weight of 2,710lbs. Changes didn’t merely stop with weight, however. Honda’s suspension engineers focused on fine tuning the suspension setup to prevent sudden oversteer during high speed cornering, which was extremely rare during normal driving conditions but was more prevalent on track. To remedy this, engineers added one aluminum bracket under the front battery tray, and added one bracket in front of the front radiator to increase chassis rigidity. The entire suspension system was discarded and replaced with a more track oriented unit, featuring a stiffer front sway bar, suspension bushings, coil springs and dampers. Additional changes to the car would see the final drive ratio revised to aid in quicker gear changes, and installation of a higher locking limited slip differential. Meanwhile, the C30A engine would receive additional motorsport love with a blueprinted and balanced crankshaft assembly, utilizing techniques carried over from Honda’s racing car engine build process. The reengineering of the NSX into the NSX Type-R resulted in a highly capable track oriented weapon that would be able to keep up with the best of the best from traditional super car marques of the day - all while being financially accessible, and carrying Honda’s legendary reliability characteristics, making for an incredibly alluring package. From 1992 through 1995, Honda would only produce 483 NSX Type-R variants, all of which were sold exclusively to the Japanese domestic market, making the NSX Type-R one of the most sought after and desirable Honda’s to date. 1995 Honda NSX-R The Cultivated Collector LLC If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1975 Porsche 912
Complete rebuild/restoration/conversion from the body shell (photo documented) by Patutschnik to a 3.0 RSR IROC racing variant with (expired) DMSB vehicle pass, with welded-in safety cell, double spring chassis (spring struts vuh), large turbo brake system, 964 3.8 modified, 915 gearbox with oil-cooled differential lock, optimized oil cooling, large front oil cooler, racing bucket seats, sports steering wheel, suspender belts, plastic front fender, plastic rear side panels, bumpers and both hoods also made of plastic, vehicle weight ready to drive approx. 975 kg The color of this car couldn't have been better chosen. Viper green. Green bush vipers are considered small, agile, very fast and poisonous. This also aptly describes the most important characteristics of this special Porsche. One feature that differs from the ultra-rare original cannot be mentioned clearly enough at this point: in contrast to the original, the racing car presented here can be driven completely legally on any public road with an H registration and all the special registrations of its conversion . We trust purists to make a pleasurable drive to the Dolomites under their own power, to finally drive around the bends there, and after a short breather and three café corretti later, to start the equally pleasurable journey home. Unmolested by the respective uniformed "race management" of all the countries crossed...it can be driven much faster than public roads would ever allow, and this green racer looks like that too, no question about it! A conscientious driver, however, will not be tempted to do anything unreasonable on public roads. The sound of this Porsche can be as meek and civilized as a lamb if desired, and on the other hand "official" if desired...and legalized with the blessing of the TÜV. The vehicle was substantially rebuilt during a full restoration in 2007-2009 by the Patutschnik company in Bavaria and converted to the style of the 3.0 RSR IROC racing model. The period-correct choice of the basic model (911 2.7 Coupe, 1975) allows the car to compete in the correct class at every conceivable event, which in almost all cases is sorted and allocated based on the year of manufacture. In keeping with the original, a double-spring chassis replaces the conventional torsion bar suspension and is much more precise and easier to adjust. Unibal joints guide the moving parts of the chassis without play and thus provide precise feedback without the corresponding damping of conventional rubber elements. The braking system was taken from the large Turbo and safely catches the 975 kg under all conceivable circumstances. Even in continuous use - for example when driving down a Dolomite pass or during track days at the Ring - there are no weaknesses to worry about. The drive pushes the light vehicle with 3.8 litres of displacement and registered 300 hp forwards enormously, especially and above all due to the deliberately chosen gear ratio. The Porsche has a stated top speed of 260 km/h - a wise choice of final gear ratio, because generally no one drives faster with it. Up to that point, however, it can go around almost any kind of bend in whichever gear happens to be engaged. Whether it is 2nd or 4th - it makes no big difference, because blessed with the 3.8 litres of displacement and relatively tame timing, the Porsche can be driven extremely lazy when it comes to gear shifting, almost casually relaxed. Since the rebuild, around 22,600 km have been covered, of which around 22,000 were on normal public roads. As far as we know, one of the three previous owners (after the rebuild) took part in a driver training course followed by free driving at Hockenheim. This event took place as part of the local Porsche club and was not organized to achieve best times as part of a competition. 1975 Porsche 911 DLS Automobile If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1978 Porsche 924
Swiss delivery Matching numbers and color Only one previous owner Swiss road registration with veteran entry The beautiful Porsche 924 offered here was delivered to the first owner in September 1978 by AMAG Biel in the color diamond silver metallic, where it has been cherished and cared for to this day, for no less than 45 years. With 54,000 original kilometers, this one owner car is a true classic that has been preserved in impressive original condition. This exclusive Porsche 924 is matching numbers and color and veteran-approved. All original keys are included with the car, as are the complete on-board folder with the original owner’s manual, the complete service booklet and the exhaust maintenance document. It is rare to find a Porsche 924 in comparable condition. The Porsche 924 is a sports car that Porsche produced from 1975 to 1988. The vehicle is a 2+2-seater and has two doors, typical of a coupé. It was originally designed as a successor to the VW-Porsche 914 for Volkswagen. Porsche launched the car on the market as its own entry-level model below the 911. The 924 was the first Porsche car with a water-cooled front engine and transaxle drive and was an expression of a departure from the technical concept of models with air-cooled rear engines. In addition to the production cars, the Carrera GTP and Carrera GTR variants were developed specifically for motorsport in 1980 and 1981, which were entered in sports car world championship races such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans. There they finished in the top three in the class rankings and achieved victories. 1978 Porsche 924 Lutziger Classic Cars AG If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
