All you need is an open road, low gears, high revs and a V8 Mustang Convertible. -Ken Miles And we can't argue with that. Because you simply cannot hide that smile when you start the 4.7 liter V8! The Mustang was introduced in 1964, along with the Chevrolet Chevelle and the Plymouth Barracuda. All three cars were quickly labeled as 'pony cars'. A name that immediately puts an end to the mustang; This racehorse is anything but a pony. The American flair, the roaring V8 sound and the wonderfully softly sprung chassis are difficult to compare with anything else. When the weather is nice, we quickly catch ourselves taking unnecessary walks; certainly not the fastest route home! 'Our 'Stang' is Signal Flare Red and has the red luxury interior. This 'luxury' interior can be recognized by the mustang horses stamped in the leather on the seats. With the white electric hood and white walls, this Ford is just right in balance. She was born in 1966, in Metuchen, New Jersey. One of the three factories where Ford produced its racehorses. Her current engine, the 289 cubic inches V8 block with 'a double barrel carburetor', was mounted here.

In the late ’40s, Luigi Chinetti, an Italian racing driver, approached Ferrari about building sports cars for the public. Ferrari was hesitant because his company’s main purpose was to win races. Later on, Ferrari began to prepare to manufacture and sell cars, in order to finance its racing operations. Chinetti, who had been selling European racing cars since the ’20s, observed that the United States’ economy could sustain Ferrari’s racing aspirations far better than Europe. By the early 1950s, Chinetti opened the first Ferrari dealership in the US. Enzo Ferrari knew the V12 format would be well suited for single seater and sports car racing, and perfect for grand tourers: it offered great versatility. In 1954, Ferrari introduced a V12 engine which became one of its signatures the Colombo 3 litre V12. Some of Ferrari’s greatest cars have used the Colombo V12, including the 250 Europa GT. It is surely the most famous and the longest-lived V12 in history. The Ferrari 250 Europa GT is unanimously considered the first Ferrari to be built in series (albeit it a very small series). Almost identical to the 250 Europa, it has similar lines but a shorter chassis. The 250 Europa GT had a 2963 cc V12 engine, producing 220 hp. The car had a tubular chassis with the internal code Tipo 508, Measuring 2.6 metres, the wheelbase was 200 millimetres shorter than that on the previous 250 Europa, enabling Ferrari to save a total of around 100 kilograms in weight. Although Vignale had been responsible for the body of the first Europa GT, most of the production was handled by Pininfarina.

Very original example of this iconic Porsche, blue/red seats, upgraded with magnesium 910 engine case, known history. When Ferdinand Piech, grandson of dr. Ferdinand Porsche, joined Porsche in 1963 he was determined to build a new sports racing car to advance the latest in technology. A challenging task especially during a decade when racing technology was moving so quickly, talent and resources were spread thin and often desperately plied with late-day trackside heroics. Yet, true to other moments in Porsche history, the team hit their target at precisely the right time. The resultant 906 Carrera 6, while fast and reliable, was even more impressive as an ambassador to tomorrow. The 906 would become the prototype of prototyping, establishing higher and higher bars of exceptional engineering as Porsche elevated their motorsports game with subsequently superlative competition cars. Beginning with careful study of the 904, the formerly heavy steel construction was replaced with modern fiberglass body work built over a lightweight steel tube space-frame chassis. At the heart of these critical weight savings, the new twin-plug 2-liter 901/20 engine (derived from the developing 911) was also lightweight, benefiting from magnesium castings and twin Weber carburetors. The new engine was a key element, but it was the combination of light weight, performance durability, and a slippery body design aided by wind-tunnel testing that made the total package such a strong success – especially for a car in the 2-liter class. 906 racing wins throughout the 1966 season continued in 1967 and 1968 including notable wins both for privateers and factory cars at the Targa Florio, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th at 24 Hours of Le Mans, while also winning their class at 12 Hours of Sebring. And while just a handful were built, fewer still remain with their factory construction, original features, and unmodified chassis. This example, chassis 906-140 is one of just 52 factory examples built in the 2-Liter configuration. Completed in April 1966, the car was delivered to the first owner through Kjell Qvale’s Pacific Northwest Porsche, Beaverton, OR where it was dispatched to Earle M. Chiles, Portland, OR, heir to the Fred Myer supermarket chain. Chiles campaigned the car under the Rapido Inc. name, hiring hot shoes Gary Wright, Michael Fisher, and Pete Lovely to run the car in the 1966 and 67 racing seasons. At this time the car participated in local events held at Portland International Raceway, Oregon and Pacific Raceway, Kent, WA, then seen fitted with American Racing magnesium wheels. An early career highlight featured Fisher and Lovely driving to an impressive 7th overall and 3rd in class at Road America. In 1967, the car was sidelined and sold to Portland enthusiast and exotic car dealer Monte Shelton. After minor front-end damage, the car was repaired, finished in blue livery, and registered in Oregon with the license plate “ACE 906”. Typical of Shelton and his sense of humor, the tail was painted with the cartoon character Snoopy, featuring various comic one-liners egging on approaching competitors. Shelton raced 906-140 at West Coast venues between late 1967 and 1969, wearing #57. Numerous class wins, national and regional SCCA meets, and Can-Am events at Laguna Seca made up the vast and varied list of events this car participated in while owned by Shelton. By 1970, Shelton advertised the car for sale in the March 1970 issue of Porsche Panorama magazine, summarizing quite accurately the prowess of this car both in its day and as a statement of historically important Porsche racing engineering. TEXT OF MARCH 1970 ADVERTISEMENT: “No expense spared in care and maintenance, utilizing services of top Porsche crew in Northwest. Presently zero hours on newly prepared engine and gearbox. New Koni shocks, Firestone fuel cells. Car as pictured above has proven ability in top pro racing circles, winning first overalls against 7-Litre machines at Westwood BC and establishing lap records at Westwood, Delta Park, and Shelton. Was fastest 906 ever at 1968 Riverside ARRC (See January ’69 Sports Car). This car is a winner, and can now be purchased, complete with spare windshield, wet- weather tires and wheels, street exhaust system, competition exhausts, FIA ‘suitcase,’ full safety equipment, at sacrifice price of $8,995 [sic].” Later that year, 906-140 sold to Robert Harmon, Marin, CA who raced the car occasionally at Laguna Seca and Vacaville until 1975 when it was sold to Ohio-based Porsche dealer, racer, and collector Chuck Stoddard. Though Stoddard would keep the car until 1986, selling it and buying it back during this ten-year span, and selling it once again, by 1988 the car was sold to the famed Italian collector Fabrizio Violati, where it became a part of his Maranello Rosso Museum collection until 2001 when it was sold to Italian enthusiast Alfredo Spinetti. Under Spinetti’s ownership 906-140 participated in several editions of the Vernasca Silver Flag Hill Climb while enjoying occasional road use for events and outings. In October 2022, this 906 was featured in Excellence magazine. The article outlined the history of the car, the remarkable originality, early racing history, and consummate known care since delivered new. Under current US ownership, this Porsche has continued to serve as one of the most complete and documented 906 race cars of the period. Further, 906-140 retains the original factory chassis number, factory chassis tag, and the serial-numbered transaxle. Though updated in period to remain competitive during racing, this desirable 910 magnesium-case engine block remains in place today. The owner reports the fiberglass bodywork to be largely original to the car and the overall construction has never required a comprehensive restoration – a statement very few cars with competition history can state with confidence. Today this historically important Porsche 906 has been thoughtfully maintained under professional care in keeping with the historic import and significant engineering history of these early prototype cars. Supported by experts with extensive vintage Porsche experience, there is no dispute regarding the racing provenance, documented ownership history, or future eligibility for participation in a host of premier vintage racing events. 906-140 is finished in correct colors reflective of the Monte Shelton ownership period when the car raced extensively on the west coast. The exterior finishes are quite nice and generally reflective of race cars that can be readily enjoyed without museum formality. The exterior lighting, plexiglass windows, and detailed body features are consistent in finish and presentation, though the windshield has a crack. The wraparound windscreen and narrow A-posts create a panoramic view from the impossibly low 38.2” overall height. The wide profile rear is dramatically shaped over the mid-engine with a clear cover allowing view into the Weber intake barrels. A set of staggered width steel wheels are fitted using five bolt mounting hubs wearing Dunlop racing tires. The cockpit is clean and very well laid out with matching contoured seats covered in padded red material and updated with five-point racing harnesses. Honestly represented and remarkably authentic, the interior, dashboard, instrumentation, and various features further support the history and known provenance of this racing icon. Hinging back the rear body panel the mechanical mastery and ground-breaking engineering celebrate Porsche engineering excellence in harmony with decades of care and preservation afforded under enthusiast ownership. The engine compartment offers authentic presentation with the centerpiece twin-plug engine trumpeting dual Weber carburetors flanked inside the innovative space frame compartment. The exposed mechanicals of the front section reveal further innovations in lightweight construction complete with correct features with some modern allowances for suspension and brake components. Although currently a running example, we recommend a professional race shop perform an inspection and review all systems before use in a competition setting. This car is offered with four spare wheels and Goodyear racing tires, spare ignition parts, protective carburetor caps, a metal quick-jack pressure bar, a copy of the Excellence magazine containing the article featuring this car, and other assorted spare parts. This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire an unprecedented example of Porsche history. Documented with the correct chassis number, known ownership and preservation, and period racing participation, this Porsche 906 will eagerly participate at any top-tier worldwide vintage motorsports events or Porsche gathering. As historic rarity and preservation continue to dominate the increasingly robust future of Porsche events, the next fortunate owner can look forward to a host of enthusiast participation and continued collector demand for this icon of motorsports history. 1966 Porsche 906 Carrera 6 Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The new engine was a key element, but it was the combination of light weight, performance durability, and a slippery body design aided by wind-tunnel testing that made the total package such a strong success – especially for a car in the 2-liter class. 906 racing wins throughout the 1966 season continued in 1967 and 1968 including notable wins both for privateers and factory cars at the Targa Florio, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th at 24 Hours of Le Mans, while also winning their class at 12 Hours of Sebring. And while just a handful were built, fewer still remain with their factory construction, original features, and unmodified chassis. This example, chassis 906-140 is one of just 52 factory examples built in the 2-Liter configuration. Completed in April 1966, the car was delivered to the first owner through Kjell Qvale’s Pacific Northwest Porsche, Beaverton, OR where it was dispatched to Earle M. Chiles, Portland, OR, heir to the Fred Myer supermarket chain. Chiles campaigned the car under the Rapido Inc. name, hiring hot shoes Gary Wright, Michael Fisher, and Pete Lovely to run the car in the 1966 and 67 racing seasons. At this time the car participated in local events held at Portland International Raceway, Oregon and Pacific Raceway, Kent, WA, then seen fitted with American Racing magnesium wheels. An early career highlight featured Fisher and Lovely driving to an impressive 7th overall and 3rd in class at Road America. In 1967, the car was sidelined and sold to Portland enthusiast and exotic car dealer Monte Shelton. After minor front-end damage, the car was repaired, finished in blue livery, and registered in Oregon with the license plate “ACE 906”. Typical of Shelton and his sense of humor, the tail was painted with the cartoon character Snoopy, featuring various comic one-liners egging on approaching competitors. Shelton raced 906-140 at West Coast venues between late 1967 and 1969, wearing #57. Numerous class wins, national and regional SCCA meets, and Can-Am events at Laguna Seca made up the vast and varied list of events this car participated in while owned by Shelton. By 1970, Shelton advertised the car for sale in the March 1970 issue of Porsche Panorama magazine, summarizing quite accurately the prowess of this car both in its day and as a statement of historically important Porsche racing engineering. TEXT OF MARCH 1970 ADVERTISEMENT: “No expense spared in care and maintenance, utilizing services of top Porsche crew in Northwest. Presently zero hours on newly prepared engine and gearbox. New Koni shocks, Firestone fuel cells. Car as pictured above has proven ability in top pro racing circles, winning first overalls against 7-Litre machines at Westwood BC and establishing lap records at Westwood, Delta Park, and Shelton. Was fastest 906 ever at 1968 Riverside ARRC (See January ’69 Sports Car). This car is a winner, and can now be purchased, complete with spare windshield, wet- weather tires and wheels, street exhaust system, competition exhausts, FIA ‘suitcase,’ full safety equipment, at sacrifice price of $8,995 [sic].” Later that year, 906-140 sold to Robert Harmon, Marin, CA who raced the car occasionally at Laguna Seca and Vacaville until 1975 when it was sold to Ohio-based Porsche dealer, racer, and collector Chuck Stoddard. Though Stoddard would keep the car until 1986, selling it and buying it back during this ten-year span, and selling it once again, by 1988 the car was sold to the famed Italian collector Fabrizio Violati, where it became a part of his Maranello Rosso Museum collection until 2001 when it was sold to Italian enthusiast Alfredo Spinetti. Under Spinetti’s ownership 906-140 participated in several editions of the Vernasca Silver Flag Hill Climb while enjoying occasional road use for events and outings. In October 2022, this 906 was featured in Excellence magazine. The article outlined the history of the car, the remarkable originality, early racing history, and consummate known care since delivered new. Under current US ownership, this Porsche has continued to serve as one of the most complete and documented 906 race cars of the period. Further, 906-140 retains the original factory chassis number, factory chassis tag, and the serial-numbered transaxle. Though updated in period to remain competitive during racing, this desirable 910 magnesium-case engine block remains in place today. The owner reports the fiberglass bodywork to be largely original to the car and the overall construction has never required a comprehensive restoration – a statement very few cars with competition history can state with confidence. Today this historically important Porsche 906 has been thoughtfully maintained under professional care in keeping with the historic import and significant engineering history of these early prototype cars. Supported by experts with extensive vintage Porsche experience, there is no dispute regarding the racing provenance, documented ownership history, or future eligibility for participation in a host of premier vintage racing events. 906-140 is finished in correct colors reflective of the Monte Shelton ownership period when the car raced extensively on the west coast. The exterior finishes are quite nice and generally reflective of race cars that can be readily enjoyed without museum formality. The exterior lighting, plexiglass windows, and detailed body features are consistent in finish and presentation, though the windshield has a crack. The wraparound windscreen and narrow A-posts create a panoramic view from the impossibly low 38.2” overall height. The wide profile rear is dramatically shaped over the mid-engine with a clear cover allowing view into the Weber intake barrels. A set of staggered width steel wheels are fitted using five bolt mounting hubs wearing Dunlop racing tires. The cockpit is clean and very well laid out with matching contoured seats covered in padded red material and updated with five-point racing harnesses. Honestly represented and remarkably authentic, the interior, dashboard, instrumentation, and various features further support the history and known provenance of this racing icon. Hinging back the rear body panel the mechanical mastery and ground-breaking engineering celebrate Porsche engineering excellence in harmony with decades of care and preservation afforded under enthusiast ownership. The engine compartment offers authentic presentation with the centerpiece twin-plug engine trumpeting dual Weber carburetors flanked inside the innovative space frame compartment. The exposed mechanicals of the front section reveal further innovations in lightweight construction complete with correct features with some modern allowances for suspension and brake components. Although currently a running example, we recommend a professional race shop perform an inspection and review all systems before use in a competition setting. This car is offered with four spare wheels and Goodyear racing tires, spare ignition parts, protective carburetor caps, a metal quick-jack pressure bar, a copy of the Excellence magazine containing the article featuring this car, and other assorted spare parts. This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire an unprecedented example of Porsche history. Documented with the correct chassis number, known ownership and preservation, and period racing participation, this Porsche 906 will eagerly participate at any top-tier worldwide vintage motorsports events or Porsche gathering. As historic rarity and preservation continue to dominate the increasingly robust future of Porsche events, the next fortunate owner can look forward to a host of enthusiast participation and continued collector demand for this icon of motorsports history.

1965 Aston Martin DB6 Vantage. C registration finished in Fiesta red with black leather interior. LBH 8C carry’s the chassis number DB6/2353/R which was Aston Martins first ever DB6 Vantage and in fact their factory demonstrator. Fiesta red with black leather is how it left the factory on the 8th September 1965, it was not only the first ever production Vantage but also only the third DB6 off the production line. Used for demonstration purposes and for the press articles up until April 1967 where the engine was replaced at the factory after it had done 17000 miles, it then went to its first private owner A Mr G O Lambert of Burnley with the first registered owner having been Aston Martin Lagonda Ltd. After 34 years in storage the most famous DB6 came up for auction in May 2014, on the advice of Aston Service Dorset it was acquired by the new owner and a full ground up restoration was started to return this car to the condition it left the factory in. More than £300,000 was spent on the restoration. The result is breath taking, not only is this DB6 the rarest of all DB6’S but it is without doubt the best one in existence today. The history file includes originals of the following magazines that tested this car back in period and later on in it's life: Motor magazine in January 1966, Autocar magazine in February 1966, and the front cover of Collectors car magazine back in 1981 and Sporting Cars magazine in 1984. The original buff log book and even the pouch that came in, receipts for every penny of expenditure throughout the restoration, photographs of the work done. Original DB6 instruction book, factory build sheets and lots more are included in the file. Below is a paragraph from Autocars original test: ‘Stage by stage, as the DB has become dominant in the Aston Martin strain, the successive cars have changed their image. Today the aim is to offer the maximum of luxury and refinement as well as the ultimate in road performance. The minor barbarities of so many great sports cars of the past are no longer acceptable – at least in the hand built models now leaving Newport Pagnell. Obviously, such a car as the DB6 is expensive and exclusive but the value matches the price.’ – Autocar, 1966 LBH 8C is a significant piece of Aston Martin History and would be worthy a place in any top Aston Martin collection in the world. It really is a blessing that this car was discovered after lying dormant for over three decades and then restored to it's former glory by a company who would of supplied parts for these cars from when they were new, so who better to know the correct way to bring this car back to life.

This V8 Vantage Zagato was supplied on the 21st November 1986 to Mr G. Strok, Esq., Weybridge, by H.W.M Ltd, of Walton-on-Thames, Surrey. This rare grand-tourer was delivered in Lightning Silver coachwork with Burgundy Connolly leather trim and Black Alcantara Headlining One of just 50 coupe examples built during the model’s four-year production run, this British GT was extravagantly styled by the famed Italian coachbuilder ‘Carrozzeria Zagato’.

This 1990 BMW E30 325i automatic was sent to renowned BMW specialists BMR Performance in West Sussex in January 2025 for inspection and was confirmed to be an extremely original, unmolested example in rust free condition with excellent bodywork, wheel arches and floors. Following inspection the car benefitted from an extensive recommission programme by BMR at a cost of GBP 4500 that included the following: Inspection 2 service, new cambelt and water pump, camshaft oil seals, brake fluid change, replacement rear axle bushes, new Eibach pro kit springs and Bilstein B4 shock absorbers, new rear drop links, new rear wheel bearings, brake caliper rebuild, attention to the central locking system, new drivers door seal etc. Supplied with complete original owners book pack, original service booklet and history file containing various MoT and sundry invoices, this well presented and great driving low mileage 325i is without doubt an appreciating and eminently usable modern classic.

The sporting DB4 served Aston Martin magnificently across its five series but in 1963, the time came to introduce the revised DB5. Regarded by many as the marque’s finest Italianate-era entry, once again the model made use of Touring of Milan’s lightweight tubular Superleggera construction method that supported alloy body panels. Underneath the beautiful skin, the famed straight-six designed by Tadek Marek grew from 3,670 cc up to 4 litres to produce a healthy 282 brake horsepower. To enjoy the driving experience even more, between 1963 and 1965, the Newport Pagnell factory built 123 DB5 Convertibles. With 39 of those configured for use abroad, a mere 84 were completed in right-hand-drive form suited for British roads. Such an intoxicating recipe found favour with the great and the good. A broad spectrum of past and present famous owners of the rare DB5 Convertible reportedly included Peter Sellers, Princess Magaret, Prince Michael of Kent, Elle Macpherson, Ralph Lauren, and, perhaps less surprisingly, former Aston Martin boss Sir David Brown. According to the accompanying copy of the Vehicle Heritage Certificate issued in April 2013 by the Aston Martin Heritage Trust, chassis number DB5C/1509/R offered here was delivered on 10 July 1964 to a dealership in Brooklands. This right-hand-drive car was configured in Platinum to complement a Black soft-top roof and an interior trimmed with Black Connolly leather. Originally, a 4-litre straight-six was paired with a three-speed Borg Warner automatic transmission. The first owner is listed as Clearmount Limited of New Bond Street, London. From November 1987, the DB5 Convertible was owned by Mr Philip Barton-Wright from Grays in Essex. He kept the car for almost 13 years before it was acquired by the Germany-based consignor. However, before taking delivery of chassis number DB5C/1509/R in late-1999, he tasked The Aston Workshop of Beamish in County Durham with a major overhaul. Most notably, after the bodyshell was acid-treated, the car was changed to its current metallic Silver Birch hue. In addition, the dashboard was restored, a new black mohair roof and wire wheels were fitted, the gearbox and rear axle rebuilt, the carburettors refreshed, and uprated anti-roll bars equipped as part of work totalling £48,000 (invoice available to view on file). Since completion, the DB5 Convertible has formed part of the seller’s pre- and post-war Aston Martin collection. In 2008, the DB5 did return to the United Kingdom ahead of an extensive rebuild of the replacement engine. Aston Engineering of Derby was tasked with the overhaul, which notably included boring out the straight-six to desirable 4.2-litre capacity. In addition to installing new pistons supplied by Cosworth, the cylinder head was refurbished, the camshaft covers powder coated, and the three SU carburettors rebuilt at a cost of £12,530. A further £8,609 was spent with the marque specialist to cover the costs of a replacement clutch and flywheel, a service of the brakes, and greasing the chassis. The Aston Martin is notably accompanied by a restamped spare engine block in addition to a jack, tool roll, plus spare wheel. Currently featuring an uprated engine that is paired with a five-speed manual gearbox, this DB5 Convertible could offer a thrilling open-air driving experience to its next owner. 1964 Aston Martin DB5 Convertible RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Extremely late 1957 production special order example accompanied by aftermarket Rudge wheels, factory luggage, belly pans, and copious documentation. Previously restored by Scott Grundfor, and retained by him as his personal car for nearly a decade. The Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing remains one of the most important and iconic vehicles ever constructed. With cultural, artistic, and performance influence spanning six decades, the Gullwing continues to inspire enthusiasts all over the world. Originally released in 1954 with production culminating in 1957, 1,400 cars were produced and delivered to a wide range of clientele, eager to own one of the finest road-going sports cars ever assembled for public use. A triumph of engineering and design, the 300SL offered fuel-injection (the first of its kind) achieving the world's fastest top speed at that time. The 300 SL (S-Sport, L-Light) confirmed Max Hoffman’s challenge to Mercedes-Benz engineer Rudolf Uhlenhaut – to build a Gran-Prix car tailored for road use. The 300 SL would span several years of racing achievements while simultaneously spawning a new age of ultra-performance cars, creating a legacy that inspires modern Mercedes-Benz design and excellence throughout their current premium offerings. This particular 300SL Gullwing is one of the last built. Completed in 1957, this is one of just 70 cars produced in this final year, and the 18th car from the very last produced. Originally finished in white with red interior, it was purchased in Dusseldorf in April 1957 by John Pallon, then a US Army serviceman. Pallon had the car shipped to his home in Studio City, California where it remained under his ownership until selling to Harold Bailey, Inglewood, CA and then to Seth Hammond, Culver City, CA. In 1986, a client of Scott Grundfor, Naohiro Ishikawa, purchased the car and brought it to Scott Restorations for a comprehensive restoration. Ishikawa, a respected collector from Sapporo, Japan had previously restored several classic Mercedes-Benzes with Scott Restorations. Shortly after his purchase, this Gullwing was comprehensively restored for Ishikawa including full paint, interior, chrome, engine, suspension, all exterior and suspension rubber, new wiring harness, brakes, and injection pump. In 1990, Grundfor traded another car for this car, retaining it as one of his personal cars until 1998 when it was purchased by the current owner. As part of the purchase, the current consigning owner asked Grundfor to restore the car to a “99 point” restoration, as outlined in a letter confirmed by Grundfor included with the supporting documents on file with this car. Paying an additional $40,000 for the restoration services, the car was repainted the current silver metallic, the interior fully reupholstered, chrome wheels added, and a modern air conditioning system installed. Details of the restoration also included new windshield molding, a new steering wheel turn signal assembly, emergency brake handle, improved chrome gauge bezels, new pop out window rubbers, misc. interior chrome plating, refinishing under the hood, trunk refinishing, hose clamps, and misc. hardware. Over the past 25 years of current ownership, the owner has enjoyed the car in the states and exported it to Brazil where it has been driven internationally. In 2015, while in transit back to California, the rear of the car was damaged on the bumper and left rear quarter panel. Experts at Canepa Designs repaired the car to a very high standard tending to additional details at a cost of $37,000. Satisfied with the high quality of work performed at Canepa, the owner returned the car for extensive mechanical services totaling an additional $109,000 including removing and repairing the fuel tank, new fuel hoses, new fuel lines, disassembly and cleaning the fuel pump, rebuild for cold start enrichment, fuel injection adjustments, engine cleaning and detailing, new filters and fluids, points, condenser, removal and refinishing for the radiator, new hoses, a new Borla stainless-steel exhaust system (painted satin black), new hangers, and new heat shields. Work performed on the engine, transmission, clutch, interior, various trim, and detailed features are documented in nine two-inch notebooks spanning seven years of continued regular services performed at Canepa Designs with detailed photos and reference notes outlining all services. In December 2022 a new set of tires and tubes were installed, a new generator and voltage regulator installed, and a new windshield fitted at Burlingame Motors, Burlingame, CA. In preparation for sale, A&C Auto Air & Radiator, Inc., San Rafael, CA purged and recharged the AC system which blows cold conditioned air throughout the cabin, with Burlingame Motors further sorting the car in September 2023. Today this rare and beautiful Gullwing offers an impressive presence with excellent cosmetics and superb mechanical continuity. The silver metallic paint is uniformly fluid and remains glossy and smooth with attractive presentation throughout. The doors, hood, and trunk gaps are excellent having all benefited from the extensive 99-point restoration performed in 1998 and further enhanced by Canepa Designs from 2015-2021. The hood and trunk open and shut smoothly and the iconic doors easily open, sustaining upright position without sagging. In addition to the doors exhibiting excellent closure, the fit is consistent at both the roof and lower portion of the door parting lines where panel alignment often becomes compromised over time. The trim, chrome, and lenses are all in excellent condition. The wheels are correctly dated for this series car and a spare set of remanufactured Rudge wheels are included. The interior of the car has a very nice look and feel with excellent harmony to the surfaces which have only slightly mellowed over time. High quality workmanship and excellent finish details are evident in the seating surfaces, stitching, and tufting, while a beautifully fitted leather topped dash conveys a finishing touch to the leather interior. The stunning red color is consistent and smooth. Contrasting headliner and fitted carpet creates an elegant and composed feel to the cockpit, particularly accented by the delightful bits of chrome, and a full array of detailed instrumentation. The dashboard is beautiful, with exceptionally nice gauges, all functioning as expected. The miles per hour speedometer dial has been covered with a kilometer face, which was required for driving while in Brazil. The odometer mechanism has not been altered and still records in miles. All ivory-color interior parts remain very nice showing only minor evidence of use. The beautifully crafted luggage appears to be original with finishes that have sympathetically aged to a warm inviting patina. The overall visual impact of the interior is quite impressive, exhibiting consistently uniform finishes in harmony with the exterior - just the sort of combination one might expect from a well-restored car that has been enjoyed, though fastidiously refined both mechanically and cosmetically to a high level. Under the hood, the engine and engine compartment present beautifully with correct finishes, proper fittings, attention to detail including correct labels and fasteners, and more recent freshening to many finishes and engine decals. All systems operate properly including the air conditioning system which has been recently recharged and blows cold, a highly desirable feature in a Gullwing for anyone who wishes to drive this car in moderate temperatures or in lengthy motoring events. As one might expect from a car that has been sorted and well-maintained, mechanical performance is consistent with the cosmetic condition. It would not be a stretch to state that the operational features are among the best we have seen in a Gullwing. The car starts readily and settles into a crisp lightly toned idle burbling though the desirable stainless-steel exhaust. Shifting is smooth and confident with excellent feel to the gearbox particularly when warm. Suspension is very nice on the highway and quite responsive on corners considering the era of this design. Braking and downshifting are quite effective with a helpful boost in stopping power supplied by braking assist. Although the car has been driven and enjoyed, the owner has not scrimped on detailing the chassis and underside components as these areas remain in very good condition overall with just minor evidence of use shown in the correctly finished components. The integrity of the restoration given to the upper surfaces is reflected diligently in the underside including the complete set of rare belly pans, often lost or misplaced simply due to the passage of time. All suspension and engine components have been restored to a high standard using correct finishes and fasteners consistent with the era. The chassis integrity supports the known history from new with decades of California ownership spanning the majority of the life of this fine Gullwing. This Gullwing comes with a set of fitted luggage (likely original to this car), a pivot type steering wheel, a set of four reproduction Rudge wheels and a Mercedes-Benz 300SL Owner’s Manual, Also included with the sale are nine large three-ring binders documenting the restoration and mechanical services performed while under the past 25 years of current ownership, as well as copies of handwritten correspondences from Scott Grundfor documenting the car, the terms of purchase, and the history of this Gullwing. One of the most advanced sports cars available when new, the 300SL Gullwing was brimming with innovative features, many of which remain today as hallmarks of superlative automotive engineering. Sporty, elegant, and exclusive, just 70 examples were built in 1957, the final year of production. Ongoing appreciation from astute enthusiasts has continued to grow due to the timeless beauty, exceptional build quality, and rarity of the incomparable Gullwing. Whether a defining centerpiece to a world class collection, or a singular example of excellence for a vintage enthusiast, this 300 SL Gullwing will prominently convey all the majesty of this premier brand as a sporting testimonial to the Mercedes-Benz legacy. Ready for enjoyable driving, events, or fun excursions, just as originally intended, the care and mechanical attention dedicated to this 300SL Gullwing will always retain its vaulted status as one of the most desirable sports cars of the 20th century. 1957 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Details of the restoration also included new windshield molding, a new steering wheel turn signal assembly, emergency brake handle, improved chrome gauge bezels, new pop out window rubbers, misc. interior chrome plating, refinishing under the hood, trunk refinishing, hose clamps, and misc. hardware. Over the past 25 years of current ownership, the owner has enjoyed the car in the states and exported it to Brazil where it has been driven internationally. In 2015, while in transit back to California, the rear of the car was damaged on the bumper and left rear quarter panel. Experts at Canepa Designs repaired the car to a very high standard tending to additional details at a cost of $37,000. Satisfied with the high quality of work performed at Canepa, the owner returned the car for extensive mechanical services totaling an additional $109,000 including removing and repairing the fuel tank, new fuel hoses, new fuel lines, disassembly and cleaning the fuel pump, rebuild for cold start enrichment, fuel injection adjustments, engine cleaning and detailing, new filters and fluids, points, condenser, removal and refinishing for the radiator, new hoses, a new Borla stainless-steel exhaust system (painted satin black), new hangers, and new heat shields. Work performed on the engine, transmission, clutch, interior, various trim, and detailed features are documented in nine two-inch notebooks spanning seven years of continued regular services performed at Canepa Designs with detailed photos and reference notes outlining all services. In December 2022 a new set of tires and tubes were installed, a new generator and voltage regulator installed, and a new windshield fitted at Burlingame Motors, Burlingame, CA. In preparation for sale, A&C Auto Air & Radiator, Inc., San Rafael, CA purged and recharged the AC system which blows cold conditioned air throughout the cabin, with Burlingame Motors further sorting the car in September 2023. Today this rare and beautiful Gullwing offers an impressive presence with excellent cosmetics and superb mechanical continuity. The silver metallic paint is uniformly fluid and remains glossy and smooth with attractive presentation throughout. The doors, hood, and trunk gaps are excellent having all benefited from the extensive 99-point restoration performed in 1998 and further enhanced by Canepa Designs from 2015-2021. The hood and trunk open and shut smoothly and the iconic doors easily open, sustaining upright position without sagging. In addition to the doors exhibiting excellent closure, the fit is consistent at both the roof and lower portion of the door parting lines where panel alignment often becomes compromised over time. The trim, chrome, and lenses are all in excellent condition. The wheels are correctly dated for this series car and a spare set of remanufactured Rudge wheels are included. The interior of the car has a very nice look and feel with excellent harmony to the surfaces which have only slightly mellowed over time. High quality workmanship and excellent finish details are evident in the seating surfaces, stitching, and tufting, while a beautifully fitted leather topped dash conveys a finishing touch to the leather interior. The stunning red color is consistent and smooth. Contrasting headliner and fitted carpet creates an elegant and composed feel to the cockpit, particularly accented by the delightful bits of chrome, and a full array of detailed instrumentation. The dashboard is beautiful, with exceptionally nice gauges, all functioning as expected. The miles per hour speedometer dial has been covered with a kilometer face, which was required for driving while in Brazil. The odometer mechanism has not been altered and still records in miles. All ivory-color interior parts remain very nice showing only minor evidence of use. The beautifully crafted luggage appears to be original with finishes that have sympathetically aged to a warm inviting patina. The overall visual impact of the interior is quite impressive, exhibiting consistently uniform finishes in harmony with the exterior - just the sort of combination one might expect from a well-restored car that has been enjoyed, though fastidiously refined both mechanically and cosmetically to a high level. Under the hood, the engine and engine compartment present beautifully with correct finishes, proper fittings, attention to detail including correct labels and fasteners, and more recent freshening to many finishes and engine decals. All systems operate properly including the air conditioning system which has been recently recharged and blows cold, a highly desirable feature in a Gullwing for anyone who wishes to drive this car in moderate temperatures or in lengthy motoring events. As one might expect from a car that has been sorted and well-maintained, mechanical performance is consistent with the cosmetic condition. It would not be a stretch to state that the operational features are among the best we have seen in a Gullwing. The car starts readily and settles into a crisp lightly toned idle burbling though the desirable stainless-steel exhaust. Shifting is smooth and confident with excellent feel to the gearbox particularly when warm. Suspension is very nice on the highway and quite responsive on corners considering the era of this design. Braking and downshifting are quite effective with a helpful boost in stopping power supplied by braking assist. Although the car has been driven and enjoyed, the owner has not scrimped on detailing the chassis and underside components as these areas remain in very good condition overall with just minor evidence of use shown in the correctly finished components. The integrity of the restoration given to the upper surfaces is reflected diligently in the underside including the complete set of rare belly pans, often lost or misplaced simply due to the passage of time. All suspension and engine components have been restored to a high standard using correct finishes and fasteners consistent with the era. The chassis integrity supports the known history from new with decades of California ownership spanning the majority of the life of this fine Gullwing. This Gullwing comes with a set of fitted luggage (likely original to this car), a pivot type steering wheel, a set of four reproduction Rudge wheels and a Mercedes-Benz 300SL Owner’s Manual, Also included with the sale are nine large three-ring binders documenting the restoration and mechanical services performed while under the past 25 years of current ownership, as well as copies of handwritten correspondences from Scott Grundfor documenting the car, the terms of purchase, and the history of this Gullwing. One of the most advanced sports cars available when new, the 300SL Gullwing was brimming with innovative features, many of which remain today as hallmarks of superlative automotive engineering. Sporty, elegant, and exclusive, just 70 examples were built in 1957, the final year of production. Ongoing appreciation from astute enthusiasts has continued to grow due to the timeless beauty, exceptional build quality, and rarity of the incomparable Gullwing. Whether a defining centerpiece to a world class collection, or a singular example of excellence for a vintage enthusiast, this 300 SL Gullwing will prominently convey all the majesty of this premier brand as a sporting testimonial to the Mercedes-Benz legacy. Ready for enjoyable driving, events, or fun excursions, just as originally intended, the care and mechanical attention dedicated to this 300SL Gullwing will always retain its vaulted status as one of the most desirable sports cars of the 20th century.

Incredibly Well-Sorted Genuine Sprint Veloce Lightweight. Mille Miglia Retrospective and California Mille Veteran. Powered by Fresh Conrad Stevenson 1500cc Engine and Offered with spare 1750cc Powerplant. Well-Documented and Ready For Virtually Any Event Worldwide. Alfa Romeo, the giant of Italian automobile manufacturing, turned their focus after the second world war to more volume-based production and larger market growth. Intent on building fine cars for broader markets, the sporting vitality and stylish designs of the early 50s Alfas would become legendary. On the racetrack, just as Alfa-Romeo had dominated in the past, their lightweight models benefited from mild engine tuning creating cars that could run with the pack in the hands of capable privateers or greet the cheering masses with top level drivers in the winner’s circle. The first Giulietta was the Bertone penned Sprint coupe. Modest in design but elegantly simple, the 1300cc twin cam engine was the perfect pairing for the market, becoming an instant success with youthful, style-conscious Europeans eager to begin their post-war lives with an exciting sports car as part of their success. For those who sought more performance, the Veloce was made available in 1956 as well as the rare and highly desirable lightweight or “Alleggerita” – the top performing of the series. To build this special variant, Bertone fitted an alloy hood, door skins, lighter bumpers, and lighter headlight bezels to the stamped steel body. Further enhancements included lighter engine components, lightened interiors, and sliding plexiglass side windows replacing the heavier glass units found in the standard Sprint models. Built for performance, the heavy rear seat was removed, replaced with a flat parcel area, and all typical sound deadening was eliminated once again to save weight. The resultant car was not only faster than a standard Sprint, it offered nimble handling and fantastic versatility in a range of driving conditions. General Overview According to reference information noted in the FIVA Identity Card issued in 1998, this factory lightweight Sprint was first sold July 26, 1956, to Marc Peccolo, Angoleme, France. The next owner of record is noted as Jacques Ricord, Nice, France. By 1993 the car is reported to have been restored by Carrozeria Flli Gabiati/Milano, Italy and AJR/ Nice, France. On April 7, 1998, the car was issued a FIVA card, then under German ownership with the notation that the car was fitted with a 101 type gearbox. Having been purchased by well-known sports car enthusiast Roger Hoffman, the car arrived in California around 2001 where it was treated to extensive mechanical work by Alfa Romeo expert Conrad Stevenson. Some years later, Hoffman engages Fantasy Junction to sell the car to Frank Gabrielli who, in 2014, sells the car to the current owner, a Northern California vintage Alfa Romeo enthusiast. Being very particular about his cars being both cosmetically and mechanically prepared to a high standard, the current owner spent the past seven years refining the car ensuring that all mechanical systems were in top order, all instruments were dialed in and functional, all lighting was both correct and functional, and any errant wind noises were properly resolved with correct fit to the doors, glass, and rubber. Even the heater was correctly wired and ducted to function properly. Accompanying the car are extensive copies of invoices for mechanical and cosmetic work copiously detailing with photos and specifications the efforts extended to prepare this car to the level it is today. The 1300cc engine rebuild is detailed by Stevenson with notation for specifications, measurements, and a dyno chart along with rear axle and brake specifications, complete interior upholstery and seat framework overview, suspension work, and glass and weatherstrip replacement – to name just a few of the many aspects of the ongoing improvements and refurbishment performed on the car. Additional notes are also provided for the 1750cc engine which was in excellent operation as late as August 2021 shortly before being removed for the 1300cc engine installation that represents the current running configuration. General Condition Today this Alfa Romeo offers a handsome, consistent, and well-sorted presentation. The paint is glossy with excellent coverage throughout, and very nice panel fit, particularly so given the alloy body panel fit to the steel main structure. The various bright work has been redone to a high level with excellent grille and trim over each side opening. The sporting competition road lights added to the front bumper deliver a nice rally touch to the look of the car. The steel wheels have been painted with the correct silver finish, void of fussy wheel cover mounting clips. The Vredestein tires are correctly sized to the car and the suspension is set just right for the wheel openings giving the car excellent stance. The side glass garnish molding allows for sliding plexiglass windows specific to the lightweight configuration as mounted to the alloy-skinned doors. Fit and finish for all the lighting, trim, emblems, and other specific details has been restored to a very high standard. The interior, completed in 2014, under current ownership is particularly handsome in both finish and colors. The leather seating surfaces are beautifully finished as are the door panels, headliner, and carpeting all the way back into the rear parcel area that is unique to the lightweight configuration. Accenting the original instruments, each of the three dials and the wood rim Nardi steering wheel collectively compose what must be considered one of the best-looking dashboards of this era. The dash houses an array of original knobs and switches flanked by handsome door levers, Alfa-Romeo branded foot pedals, and polished door thresholds. The cockpit of this Veloce is a delightful engagement of purpose and beauty, which is only further enriched by the driving experience once behind the wheel. The engine compartment is beautifully presented, currently housing a period-correct non-matching numbers 1300cc engine, built to 1500cc, by expert Conrad Stevenson as documented in the invoices accompanying the car. In addition to this engine, the car previously ran a 1750cc engine which is offered with the spares. The engine bay is prepared using factory finishes, hardware, and fasteners, delivering authentic vintage including correct Weber carburetors, factory type hoses and air induction plenum, silver quilted hood insulation pad, textured black cam cover finish, and correctly detailed engine auxiliary components. The trunk is properly prepared with a matching spare tire and jack mounted in place and housing the rear mounted battery. The undercarriage eschews show level detail but still presents quite clean and very well resolved showing solid floor pans and rockers, clean engine and drivetrain castings, and no signs of structural compromise to the floor or suspension mounts. Having driven the car both as the currently configured 1300cc engine and the previous 1750cc version, we are pleased to say that the character and quality of the driving experience are very well balanced in both instances. This is a wonderful, dialed in car with a cohesive feel, excellent driving manners, and great sounds. The driving experience, coupled with very rewarding cosmetics, is very rewarding. The 1300cc engine is not peaking under throttle, indicating plenty of available power in the rev range. Driving is responsive and effortless with each shift, entering corner after corner with tight suspension, brakes that pull down straight, and solid pedals that respond properly on demand. The comfortable seats, wonderful exhaust note, and lightweight “feel” at the wheel heartily delivers on the Veloce lightweight promise at every corner. This is a delightful Giulietta Sprint Veloce “Alleggerita” ready for show or events with a high level of mechanical and cosmetic confidence offering the rarity of factory lightweight construction and miles and miles of pure Alfa Romeo enjoyment for the next fortunate owner. Items Included with the Car This Alfa Romeo is offered with the spare 1750cc engine (AR00531*01267*), car cover, roadside safety kit, spare lug wrench, and an Alfa Romeo Giulietta Instruction Book and case. 1956 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Established in 1984 as the Deutsche Produktionswagen Meisterschaft—the German Production Car Championship—before transitioning to its more familiar Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterchaft moniker in 1986, the DTM rapidly emerged as the most prestigious touring car championship in continental Europe. Strictly enforced Group A regulations and a performance-based weight handicap system promoted a relatively level playing field as the series became a byword for spectacular and competitive racing. For the 1988 season, a “double header” race weekend format was introduced, which was accompanied by an upsurge in manufacturer interest from Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Ford. Furthermore, the collapse of the European Touring Car Championship at the end of that year hastened the arrival of grandee teams including Eggenberger and Schnitzer for 1989, as well as star drivers such as ex-Formula 1 pilots Johnny Cecotto and Bernd Schneider, Touring Car greats Steve Soper and Roberto Ravaglia, and Sports Car legends Klaus Ludwig and Manuel Reuter. Following Ford’s withdrawal, the 1990 season looked set to be a bilateral contest between BMW and Mercedes-Benz, with both marques entering no less than four Works-backed teams. However, it was a single factory-supported, Schmidt Motorsport-run Audi V8 quattro that attracted the greatest attention as the Ingolstadt marque embarked upon an official DTM campaign for the first time. Piloted by former World Sports Car Champion Hans-Joachim Stuck, its superb four-wheel-drive system rendered it the class of the field; the German winning seven of a possible 22 races to secure the title. For 1991, Schmidt expanded to a two-car operation, with 22-year-old karting prodigy Hubert Haupt joining Stuck in the team. Audi’s presence was also bolstered by a second Works-backed outfit; the Audi Zentrum Reutlingen squad running cars for Franks Biela and Jelinski. Duly updated to “Evolution” specification, the V8 quattro’s 3.5-litre engine by now produced almost 500 horsepower, while a new front splitter and adjustable-height rear wing offered significant aerodynamic advances. BMW initially set the pace by winning the first four races, but enviable consistency and three wins in the final four rounds handed Biela the title ahead of the Mercedes-Benz-mounted Ludwig and Stuck. Incredibly, this represented the first time a manufacturer had sealed back-to-back DTM titles. Audi’s dominance was underlined by Biela winning two of the four end-of-season ITR races to also secure the ITR Driver’s Cup. Originally one of the Schmidt Motorsport-run cars, this stunning example—chassis LN000049—made its race debut in the opening round of the 1991 Championship, at Zolder. Driven by Hans-Joachim Stuck, it finished a superb 2nd behind Cecotto’s BMW in the second race, ahead of Biela’s similar car. However, after a sequence of three retirements in four races, Haupt took over the driving duties at Avus; the Bavarian finishing 4th and 3rd on a weekend when Audi swept the podium in both races. Thereafter, the car reverted to Stuck, who subsequently took three excellent wins at Norisring, Diepholz, and Singen to cement his 3rd place in the Championship. If Audi’s 1991 season had been unmitigated triumph, then 1992 proved acrimonious. The team’s early season pace was overshadowed by BMW and Mercedes-Benz lobbying successfully for the quattro’s minimum weight to be increased to 1,300 kilograms, and frequent protests centring around the legality—or otherwise—of the quattro’s crankshaft. A Biela-Stuck 1-2 at Nürburgring aside, there were few other results of note, and Stuck’s 6th place at Avus was to prove the final significant result for chassis LN000049. Indeed, so toxic was the prevailing political situation that Audi withdrew mid-season; the Nürburgring Nordschleife round in June representing the marque’s Championship swansong. Having remained in Audi’s care for more than two decades, chassis LN000049 was acquired in April 2014 by its illustrious former driver, Hupert Haupt, who promptly entrusted it to Imgrund Motorsport of Hüttenhausen, Germany for complete restoration to 1991 specification. The work performed including rebuilding the car’s complex transmission and suspension, as well as rewiring, replumbing and the fitment of a 4.2-litre engine; the latter unit offering superior torque and slightly lower maximum revs. Exquisitely finished in its correct 1991-specification Audi Sport livery, chassis LN000049 is supported by an extensive spares package including its original race engine, two spare sets of wheels, a wiring harness, a complete braking system, and a period-correct laptop for data download purposes. Used only minimally since completion, the car is accompanied by an FIA Historical Technical Passport and represents a highly attractive and competitive entry into the numerous historic and Youngtimer touring car events for which it is eligible. 1991 Audi V8 quattro DTM 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 Established in 1984 as the Deutsche Produktionswagen Meisterschaft—the German Production Car Championship—before transitioning to its more familiar Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterchaft moniker in 1986, the DTM rapidly emerged as the most prestigious touring car championship in continental Europe. Strictly enforced Group A regulations and a performance-based weight handicap system promoted a relatively level playing field as the series became a byword for spectacular and competitive racing. For the 1988 season, a “double header” race weekend format was introduced, which was accompanied by an upsurge in manufacturer interest from Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Ford. Furthermore, the collapse of the European Touring Car Championship at the end of that year hastened the arrival of grandee teams including Eggenberger and Schnitzer for 1989, as well as star drivers such as ex-Formula 1 pilots Johnny Cecotto and Bernd Schneider, Touring Car greats Steve Soper and Roberto Ravaglia, and Sports Car legends Klaus Ludwig and Manuel Reuter. Following Ford’s withdrawal, the 1990 season looked set to be a bilateral contest between BMW and Mercedes-Benz, with both marques entering no less than four Works-backed teams. However, it was a single factory-supported, Schmidt Motorsport-run Audi V8 quattro that attracted the greatest attention as the Ingolstadt marque embarked upon an official DTM campaign for the first time. Piloted by former World Sports Car Champion Hans-Joachim Stuck, its superb four-wheel-drive system rendered it the class of the field; the German winning seven of a possible 22 races to secure the title. For 1991, Schmidt expanded to a two-car operation, with 22-year-old karting prodigy Hubert Haupt joining Stuck in the team. Audi’s presence was also bolstered by a second Works-backed outfit; the Audi Zentrum Reutlingen squad running cars for Franks Biela and Jelinski. Duly updated to “Evolution” specification, the V8 quattro’s 3.5-litre engine by now produced almost 500 horsepower, while a new front splitter and adjustable-height rear wing offered significant aerodynamic advances. BMW initially set the pace by winning the first four races, but enviable consistency and three wins in the final four rounds handed Biela the title ahead of the Mercedes-Benz-mounted Ludwig and Stuck. Incredibly, this represented the first time a manufacturer had sealed back-to-back DTM titles. Audi’s dominance was underlined by Biela winning two of the four end-of-season ITR races to also secure the ITR Driver’s Cup. Originally one of the Schmidt Motorsport-run cars, this stunning example—chassis LN000049—made its race debut in the opening round of the 1991 Championship, at Zolder. Driven by Hans-Joachim Stuck, it finished a superb 2nd behind Cecotto’s BMW in the second race, ahead of Biela’s similar car. However, after a sequence of three retirements in four races, Haupt took over the driving duties at Avus; the Bavarian finishing 4th and 3rd on a weekend when Audi swept the podium in both races. Thereafter, the car reverted to Stuck, who subsequently took three excellent wins at Norisring, Diepholz, and Singen to cement his 3rd place in the Championship. If Audi’s 1991 season had been unmitigated triumph, then 1992 proved acrimonious. The team’s early season pace was overshadowed by BMW and Mercedes-Benz lobbying successfully for the quattro’s minimum weight to be increased to 1,300 kilograms, and frequent protests centring around the legality—or otherwise—of the quattro’s crankshaft. A Biela-Stuck 1-2 at Nürburgring aside, there were few other results of note, and Stuck’s 6th place at Avus was to prove the final significant result for chassis LN000049. Indeed, so toxic was the prevailing political situation that Audi withdrew mid-season; the Nürburgring Nordschleife round in June representing the marque’s Championship swansong. Having remained in Audi’s care for more than two decades, chassis LN000049 was acquired in April 2014 by its illustrious former driver, Hupert Haupt, who promptly entrusted it to Imgrund Motorsport of Hüttenhausen, Germany for complete restoration to 1991 specification. The work performed including rebuilding the car’s complex transmission and suspension, as well as rewiring, replumbing and the fitment of a 4.2-litre engine; the latter unit offering superior torque and slightly lower maximum revs. Exquisitely finished in its correct 1991-specification Audi Sport livery, chassis LN000049 is supported by an extensive spares package including its original race engine, two spare sets of wheels, a wiring harness, a complete braking system, and a period-correct laptop for data download purposes. Used only minimally since completion, the car is accompanied by an FIA Historical Technical Passport and represents a highly attractive and competitive entry into the numerous historic and Youngtimer touring car events for which it is eligible.
