During the mid- to late 1950s, Ferrari was in a state of transition; increased racing costs meant that Ferrari needed to sell more roadgoing models to pay for its extensive racing program. Although such roadgoing models were certainly offered in the past, they were essentially built to order. Variations to suit the wishes of individual customers were common, keeping costs high and volumes low, rendering them unprofitable. Meanwhile, the 250 GT cabriolet, introduced at the Geneva International Auto Salon in 1957, was conceived as Ferrari’s semi-luxury touring car and was, thus, given better interior appointments and more soundproofing than the 250 California Spider. Its chassis and drivetrain may have been strikingly similar to Ferrari’s racing cars, but the high standard of fit and finish, as well as the car’s complete instrumentation, luxurious leather interior, and other passenger amenities, set it apart. The cabriolet was based upon the 250 GT coupe, which was also presented as a luxury touring machine, with its body produced by Pinin Farina. Unveiled to the public at the 1959 Paris Salon, the new series II cabriolet appeared one year after the handsome, updated 250 GT Pinin Farina coupe and replaced the low-production first series cabriolet. In fact, the second series remains notable as the first commercially successful, production-based convertible model ever offered by Ferrari. While the cabriolet appeared to be somewhat longer than the coupe, thanks to a stylish “kick-up” just behind the doors and the elegant rear fenders, the cabriolet and coupe shared nearly identical overall dimensions. Mechanically, both the 250 GT cabriolet and the coupe were considerably improved over the California, with the addition of the updated 3.0-liter, Colombo-derived V-12 engine designated Tipo 128 F. This engine, which produced 240 horsepower, was fitted with outside-plug cylinder heads and twin distributors, while an overdrive transmission was made available. The cars offered race-bred stopping power with a set of four-wheel disc brakes, while telescopic shock absorbers and handsome 16-inch Borrani wire wheels were included as standard equipment. The result was a stylish and very quick Ferrari, with acceleration to 60 mph achieved in less than seven seconds, en route to a top speed of 140 mph. These updates resonated with Ferrari’s clientele. Production lasted part way through 1962 and 200 examples were built, far outselling the initial series of 250 GT cabriolets. A UNIQUE 250 GT CABRIOLET The 84th example produced, chassis number 2115 GT was sold new by the factory in October 1960 to first owner Raymond Doumith, a resident of Baghdad in the Republic of Iraq. This 250 GT was the only example to leave the factory finished in the stunning one-off color combination of Blu Tornado (MM 12909) over Pelle Nera (VM 8500). The car was further optioned with an Abarth exhaust system, Borrani wire wheels, Pirelli Cinturato tires, Borletti instrumentation in kilometers, and a Baroclem battery. In 1969 the Ferrari was imported to the United States, where it was owned by a Sidney Colberg of San Francisco, California and later a Thomas E. Thompson of Camp Springs, Maryland. The 250 GT would eventually find its way to Canada under the ownership of architect and Toronto resident Jake Silberberg in the mid 1980s. In the late 1990s it was restored to its factory configuration. Chassis number 2115 GT was later sold by Modena Motorsport GmbH in Langenfeld (Düsseldorf), Germany to Ralf-Guido Kiwit of Meerbusch (Düsseldorf), Germany. The 250 GT participated in Ferrari Racing Days at the Nürburgring in September of 2002. In July 2005 Kiwit showed the Ferrari at the 11th Modena Motorsport Track Days at the Nürburgring. In July 2006, Kiwit drove the Ferrari in the Tour Inter Europa and showed the car at the Concours d’Elegance in the Rhineland-Palatinate part of Germany. Kiwit sold the 250 GT in 2013 through Modena Motorsport to a client in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. By the Fall of 2016, the chassis number 2115 GT was back in the United States. The most recent ownership, a respected Ferrari collector based in the UK, purchased the 250 GT in 2018; during their tenure the Ferrari has been sparingly driven. It achieved Ferrari Classiche Certification in 2021, confirming that it retained its matching-numbers engine, gearbox, and differential. Today chassis 2115 GT is finished in a lovely shade of blue metallic with a blue convertible top over a Pelle Beige interior. It is equipped with a driver sideview mirror and Marmitte ANSA exhaust, and rides on Avon tires mounted on Borrani knock-off wire wheels. The interior is nicely appointed, with the Pelle Beige complemented nicely by a wood-rimmed steering wheel and a color-matched dashboard with full suite of Veglia instrumentation, with speedometer in kilometers. The 3.0-liter Columbo V-12 is fueled by three Weber 40DCL6 carburetors. It is backed by a four-speed synchromesh gearbox sending power to a 7x32 differential. The Ferrari is offered with copies of factory build records, Ferrari Classiche Red Book, and Massini report. A true gentleman’s Ferrari, this 250 GT Cabriolet Series II, exhibiting a stunning Pinin Farina design and boasting Ferrari Classiche Certification, would be a wonderful cabriolet for the driving enthusiast looking to experience Ferrari performance and luxury at its finest level. 1960 Ferrari 250 GT Cabriolet Series II by Pinin Farina RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

THE LAST REAL SPORTS JAGUAR? hen Jaguar unveiled its Type E at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1961, it was a complete surprise. Surprise, because no one had had any prior information about the future Grand Touring of the Coventry brand, and also because the Type E line totally captivated the crowds. A William Lyons design, a sporty yet comfortable) chassis and first-class performance were the hallmarks of the new Jaguar Type E. Not to mention the unbeatable price then, since it was three times cheaper than a Ferrari and half as much as a Maserati...Since the end of the war, Jaguar has become the symbol of British Grand Touring. The entire genealogy of XK roadsters (120 to 150) has largely contributed to building this sporting image in addition to the many victories in major competitions. But at the dawn of the 1960s, despite all their qualities, the XKs could not hide their age. So, in secret, Coventry is working on the replacement. On 15 March at the Geneva Motor Show, it is the crowd of journalists in the Parc des Eaux-Vives who can admire a preview of the new Coventry star. Then, it is the great crowd at the Geneva Motor Show. The comments and reactions are ecstatic. Every time an E-Type Jaguar appears in the street, there is a crowd. One the stream of stars and personalities who hastened to take orders for the beautiful English car: Françoise Sagan, Johnny Haliday, Bernard Consten, Charles Trenet, Pierre Bardinon, Robert Hirsch, not to mention the crowned heads. But not content with having a line to cut the blow, the Jaguar E-Type could boast of having a royal chassis for the time... The design of the Jaguar Type E has often been attributed to Sir William Lyons. But as in every automobile genesis, there is a captain at the helm, and a whole team behind him working in his shadow. Malcolm Sayer, an aerodynamicist from the aeronautics industry, assumes the authorship of the pencil stroke. Dressing a very light tubular chassis, our English designer gave the Jaguar Type E an immensely long and flat bonnet which quickly contributed to the magnetism operated on the public. The opening of the bonnet is total with the complete block tilting forward and fully uncovering the mechanics. At the front, a small grille looks like a suggestive half-open mouth, leaving the door open to the most fertile imaginations. Two round headlights are under globes and recessed. The rear is Fastback style with the roof sloping down to the slim taillights. The finish on board does not suffer from criticism, quite the contrary, and a large bootmakes it possible to envisage long journeys. Isn't this precisely the primary vocation of a GT? Jaguar owes so much to the XK engine that we can't talk without recalling its history. When the Jaguar XK120 roadster was presented at Earls Court in 1948, the English motor show, the love at first sight with the public was immediate. Its name "XK 120" comes from its engine and performance. Equipped with the XK engine, this Jaguar-designed in-line six, it gave the Jaguar XK120 Roadster a top speed of... 120 miles per hour! Born in 3.4 litres with its cast iron block and an aluminum cylinder head, its distribution was done by two overhead camshafts. Not bad in 1948 ! For its Jaguar Type E, Coventry equipped it with a rebored version of the XK engine. The in-line 6 now has a displacement of 3.8 litres (87x106 mm) and retains its character of a long-stroke engine. This means more torque from the lowest revs. The power announced by the factory is 265 hp SAE at 5500 rpm and a torque of 35.9 mkg at 5500 rpm. With a top speed of 240 km/h and a 0-100 km/h time of less than 8 seconds many motorists in their 'modern' cars are surprised by the good health of the E-Types. The Jaguar Type E has been the object of the most careful attention for its chassis. Indeed, many solutions have been taken from the competition. Thus, for the new GT of Coventry the chassis engineers (Bob Knight and Norman Dewis) have imagined a cradle independent of the hull. It houses the rear suspension, brakes and differential. It is then attached to the body by V-shaped silent-blocks. This isolates the passenger compartment from any interference from suspension and/or road irregularities. For the front part, it is almost a "copy and paste" of the Type D race structure. Two superimposed triangulated levers, including the lower one which houses the front end of the longitudinal torsion arm.To slow down its sharp-clawed feline, Jaguar adopted the principle of disc brakes successfully inaugurated at the Le Mans 24 Hours in June 1953 with the Jaguar Type C. All four wheels are equipped with them and a separate dual braking system is fitted. With a contained weight of 1,220 kg, the Jaguar Type E boasts a very flattering power-to-weight ratio that allows it to claim the status of a true sports car. The handling is very modern and it is above all the ride comfort that is astonishing. It's easy to see why Jaguar would make a name for itself in the chassis business. In 1962 3500 coupes were produced out of a total production of 7667 coupes in the 3.8L version. This E Type is certainly the most desirable of all. Its line makes it a collector's item of choice, its technical solutions and its genesis still allow it to be a modern car and its engine, which seemed archaic at the time, now stands out thanks to its reliability. Our Jaguar E Type 3,8L Fixed Head Coupé was delivered new in the States in February 1963 to Mr and Mrs Garlock. It stayed there most of its life before reaching the UK where a very ambitious restoration was started. Over 2 years it has been painstakingly prepared to ultimate fast road specifications with a specific attention to period esthetic and improved comfort for rallies and long-distance run. An impressive file of pictures and invoices* describes the great work achieved by some of the best Jaguar specialists such as Guy Broad, Pendine Works, Project shop… The result is a car that would for sure drive you fast to the lawns of a selective concourse where it would be noticed…even driven hard and covered with dead flies. *Sum up of the work achieved Engine Complete strip and rebuild, including acid stripping the block.

Its name "XK 120" comes from its engine and performance. Equipped with the XK engine, this Jaguar-designed in-line six, it gave the Jaguar XK120 Roadster a top speed of... 120 miles per hour! Born in 3.4 litres with its cast iron block and an aluminum cylinder head, its distribution was done by two overhead camshafts. Not bad in 1948 ! For its Jaguar Type E, Coventry equipped it with a rebored version of the XK engine. The in-line 6 now has a displacement of 3.8 litres (87x106 mm) and retains its character of a long-stroke engine. This means more torque from the lowest revs. The power announced by the factory is 265 hp SAE at 5500 rpm and a torque of 35.9 mkg at 5500 rpm. With a top speed of 240 km/h and a 0-100 km/h time of less than 8 seconds many motorists in their 'modern' cars are surprised by the good health of the E-Types. The Jaguar Type E has been the object of the most careful attention for its chassis. Indeed, many solutions have been taken from the competition. Thus, for the new GT of Coventry the chassis engineers (Bob Knight and Norman Dewis) have imagined a cradle independent of the hull. It houses the rear suspension, brakes and differential. It is then attached to the body by V-shaped silent-blocks. This isolates the passenger compartment from any interference from suspension and/or road irregularities. For the front part, it is almost a "copy and paste" of the Type D race structure. Two superimposed triangulated levers, including the lower one which houses the front end of the longitudinal torsion arm.To slow down its sharp-clawed feline, Jaguar adopted the principle of disc brakes successfully inaugurated at the Le Mans 24 Hours in June 1953 with the Jaguar Type C. All four wheels are equipped with them and a separate dual braking system is fitted. With a contained weight of 1,220 kg, the Jaguar Type E boasts a very flattering power-to-weight ratio that allows it to claim the status of a true sports car. The handling is very modern and it is above all the ride comfort that is astonishing. It's easy to see why Jaguar would make a name for itself in the chassis business. In 1962 3500 coupes were produced out of a total production of 7667 coupes in the 3.8L version. This E Type is certainly the most desirable of all. Its line makes it a collector's item of choice, its technical solutions and its genesis still allow it to be a modern car and its engine, which seemed archaic at the time, now stands out thanks to its reliability. Our Jaguar E Type 3,8L Fixed Head Coupé was delivered new in the States in February 1963 to Mr and Mrs Garlock. It stayed there most of its life before reaching the UK where a very ambitious restoration was started. Over 2 years it has been painstakingly prepared to ultimate fast road specifications with a specific attention to period esthetic and improved comfort for rallies and long-distance run. An impressive file of pictures and invoices* describes the great work achieved by some of the best Jaguar specialists such as Guy Broad, Pendine Works, Project shop… The result is a car that would for sure drive you fast to the lawns of a selective concourse where it would be noticed…even driven hard and covered with dead flies. *Sum up of the work achieved Engine Complete strip and rebuild, including acid stripping the block.

Often cited as one of the most beautiful sports cars ever built, Maserati Ghibli designer Giorgetto Giugiaro created the design at the onset of his tenure with Ghia. Not content to rest on his prodigious output while at Bertone where he’d already penned future masterpieces, by the time he arrived at Ghia, he was eagerly developing designs that would break away from the rounded forms of the early 50s and 60s. In 1966, one of his most prolific years, Giugiaro delivered four of the most critically acclaimed designs of the decade, the finest among them being the Maserati Ghibli. Named for the warm, high-speed exotic desert winds, the chiseled Ghibli debuted at the 1966 Turin Motor Show gaining immediate acclaim as the most refined and elegant of Giugiaro’s advanced linear and aggressive designs. The Ghibli featured a fresh and trend setting body design, brimming with some of the most advanced mechanical features available for any road car at that time. Maserati initially outfitted the Ghibli with their race-bred 306 hp dry-sump 4.7-liter quad-cam V8, topped by four Weber carburetors, coupled to a ZF five-speed manual transmission and limited slip differential. Capable drivers could reach 60 mph in less than seven seconds with handling being reported among the best of the period. Dramatically low and wide, the 4-wheel disc brake equipped Ghibli was further improved in 1969 with the upgraded 4.9 liter engine (as equipped on this car). Under the SS designation, power increased to 330hp, making it the fastest Maserati road car ever produced, capable of 170+ mph and improved 0-60 times. This beautiful Ghibli was originally delivered from the factory finished in Oro Metallizzato with beige leather interior and tan carpeting. Purchased new in Milan, Italy and imported to the US in 1971 by Mr. A Bio, New Jersey, the car remained under his ownership for a remarkable 38 years. In 2009, the car was sold to the second owner. As it had been essentially serviced and maintained to a high level by the original owner, the second owner performed sensitive cosmetic refurbishment including a high quality repaint in the original color, and reupholstery of the interior. A major service was performed on the engine and a new factory exhaust was installed. In 2014 the car was sold to the third owner, a prominent New York vintage car collector. The car has subsequently changed hands in recent years, allowing for availability through the current consigning owner. TODAY THIS MASERATI GHIBLI PRESENTS IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION. The paint is bright and smoothly executed with excellent coverage, correct metal flake, and high gloss. The condition of the paint is not only smooth, the reflection quality and detail work have been performed to a high level. The doors, hood, and trunk shut with crisp and firm latching, exhibiting excellent fit and panel match consistent with original factory construction. The wheels are beautifully and correctly finished, shod with correctly sized Pirelli Cinturato tires. Chrome plating on bumpers and various other trim is very well done with excellent contours to the elegant and thin grille opening surround. Glass throughout is in excellent condition overall showing only light surface imperfections typical of original glazing, bearing the correct brand marks indicating the original factory glass. The interior has benefited from reupholstery in high quality leather consistent with the factory colors when ordered new. The seats retain good foam bolsters while the leather remains supple and smooth. The interior retains a satisfying combination of very nicely preserved original materials and properly selected leather for the seating. Of particular note is the excellent instrumentation with clear and consistent coloring, bright numeral indications, and crisp needles spanning the width of this impressive dashboard. Toggle switches and various knobs are also in excellent cosmetic condition. The steering wheel and center horn button are particularly nice and add a confident touchpoint to the power and performance lurking under the beautifully formed Ghia body design. In the rear of the car, the expansive glass stretches out over the spare tire compartment concealing the spare wheel and battery. The engine compartment displays a very nice collection of original components including the correct original metal-formed air cleaner complete with number tag, proper hoses and fasteners, and correct Maserati data plates with factory stampings, and what appear to be largely original finishes throughout the engine compartment. Though not detailed for show, the integrity of the finishes reveals the car has been serviced and maintained with preservation in mind, thoughtfully expressed by the long-term ownership and care delivered by the first owner. The rare 4.9 series engine was a landmark for Maserati, and has since become the most coveted of the Ghibli production run due to their powerful output and refinement. Offering considerably more displacement than even a Daytona, the 4.9 Ghiblis occupy a top tier position in both beauty and performance. The undercarriage of this car is clean and tidy with finishes that appear consistent to original construction. There is no visual evidence of structural damage to the chassis, rocker panels, or suspension mounting points. The undercarriage displays honest finishes reflective of general use and proper care. A correct factory type exhaust has been installed and braided stainless steel brake lines have been refitted. DRIVING THIS MASERATI, ONE IS IMMEDIATELY AWARE THAT THE GHIBLI WAS A PREMIER OFFERING IN THE BUDDING SUPERCAR SCENE. The car starts easily, releasing a finely tuned exhaust note as the engine settles into a gentle but eager quad cam idle. The 5-speed gearbox operates quite nicely as the clutch takes up and the throttle comes on strong throughout the power band. At speed, the Ghibli opens up and reveals its true touring nature, settling in as the speedometer needle heads for historic Joe Walsh territory. 4-wheel disc braking is very efficient given the weight of the car, bringing the Ghibli down from highway speeds smoothly and evenly. Even under leisurely driving, the gently wrapped windscreen, sweeping rear glass, and comfortable driving position offer surprisingly good visibility – yet another remarkable feature of the innovative Giugiaro design. Ghiblis are known for their spacious cabins, and telescopic steering columns (not found on Ferraris of this era), which greatly enhances larger driver comfort especially for longer touring events. The car is accompanied by a tool roll, a spare set of keys, and a loose-page owner’s manual. With its refined 4.9 liter quad-cam V8, stunning looks, and coachbuilt Ghia and Giugiaro provenance, this Maserati Ghibli SS presents a wonderful opportunity for a collector or enthusiast to drive, refine, and enjoy one of the most important and celebrated sports cars of the Golden Era of Italian design. 1970 Maserati Ghibli 4.9 SS Coupe Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Model history When production of the 250 GT Lusso ceased at the end of 1964 it was not replaced. In 1965, there was no model between the 275 GTB and the 330 GT 2+2, however Ferrari and Pininfarina believed there was a market for an intermediate 2-seater coupe. The answer was a closed version of the 275 GTS with a larger engine and other refinements to create a smoother and quieter car. The Ferrari 330 GTC was first shown to the public at the 1966 Geneva Motor Show and seemed the ideal high speed coupe for 2 people and their luggage. It has since been referred to as ‘the best all around V12 Ferrari’. The Ferrari 330 GTC shared its chassis with the 275 GTB Berlinetta and is well equipped with a 3967cc V12 engine, producing a strong output of 300hp at 6000rpm. Pininfarina’s elegant bodywork took after the 500 Superfast at the front and the 275 GTS at the rear. The Ferrari 330 GTC was an instant succes and remained in production until 1968. The GTC’s are considered to be one of the finest Gran Turismo driving machines from Ferrari. Only 600 examples were produced. This example This specific Ferrari 330 GTC was built in 1968 and sold new to or via Chinetti Luigi Motors, but apparently the car was delivered in Geneva, Switzerland. The car comes with complete ownership history from new and tools and books. In 1994 the body was restored with invoices and photo’s showing only minor metalwork. The engine was partly rebuilt at 101.000 km. Currently the car shows 118.000 km from new. In 2016 the car was repainted to a very high standard at one of the best shops in Holland. This wonderful car comes with a well documented history file, showing invoices through the decades, including an old FIVA card, ownership documents and a recent FIVA passport. Beautifully finished in the most elegant combination of ‘Celeste’ with a ‘Pelle Nera’ interior. 1968 Ferrari 330 GTC Very Superior Old Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Fiat 8V’s legacy as one of the most legendary cars ever built by the Italian marque was established at the very outset. Introduced at the 1952 Geneva Motor Show, Road & Track called it “the biggest surprise of the year,” and The Motor remarked that “the last thing which had been expected from Italy’s largest car factory was a truly streamlined 2-seater saloon.” This enthusiastic reaction was echoed by the upper crust of Europe’s gentlemen racers, and for good reason: the 8V’s performance was startling. Capable of 120 mph from its 2.0-liter, all-aluminum, narrow-angle V-8 engine, the sub-2,200-pound 8V—with its Siata-designed tubular chassis— presented an unrivaled power-to-weight ratio. Privately entered 8Vs easily claimed the 2.0-liter class of the Italian GT Championship for six straight seasons (1954 through 1959). The 8V was a prime candidate for custom coachwork, and the most striking form executed upon the model was unequivocally Giovanni Savonuzzi’s stunning Jet Age design for Ghia, known as the Supersonic. With it, Ghia endowed Fiat’s 8V supercar with a jaw-dropping visage equal to its remarkable performance. Characterized by a long front deck with steeply raked windshield, a curved nose that leads into a straight-through beltline, and small tailfins flaring off lights intended to resemble jet exhausts, the Supersonic is widely considered to be the most celebrated and desirable of Ghia’s creations. SUPERSONIC NUMBER 43 Research undertaken by automotive historian Paolo Giusti notes that this impeccably restored 8V Supersonic, chassis 43, was one of two examples ordered from Ghia by the American dealer Howard “Dutch” Darrin during the summer of 1953. By October 1953, both 8V chassis had been sent from Fiat to Ghia, and in December 1953 the completed pair of Supersonics was received by Darrin’s atelier in New York City. Rather uniquely, they were equipped with auxiliary lights fitted to the front grille and delivered without bumpers. Historic images sourced by Giusti from the archives of photographer Stefano Bricarelli show that this Supersonic was originally painted White over a red leather interior with center-lock chrome disc wheels. In February 1954, Darrin included both Supersonics in his display at the inaugural International World Motor Sports Show. With Darrin’s client and fellow Supersonic owner Paul Farago making their introductions, he quickly sold Supersonic chassis 39 to Hollywood actress Lana Turner. A few days later, the remaining Supersonic, chassis 43, piqued the attention of Briggs Swift Cunningham. A multi-millionaire sportsman, racing driver, automobile manufacturer, and collector who was then one of America’s most recognized figures outside Hollywood or Washington D.C., Cunningham enjoyed a singular level of cachet and influence among the country’s sportscar dealers, and this fact was surely not lost on Darrin. Even Luigi Chinetti and Max Hoffman were known to kowtow to Cunningham’s special requests for exceptional vehicles. Legend says that he wished to test drive this Supersonic, and so Darrin eagerly arranged to bring the car down to Sebring International Raceway on the first weekend in March, where Cunningham and his eponymous racing team were due to compete in the 12-Hour Grand Prix of Endurance. Arriving just in time for practice sessions, Darrin and Cunningham are reported to have driven this Supersonic around the Sebring course and surrounding area before agreeing upon the car’s sale for $9,500. Lucie Cunningham enjoyed her new Supersonic (registered in Florida as “6D-676”) quite thoroughly during their brief time together, though by 1959 it had passed to a California resident who registered it as “TYF835.” Over the following two decades, this preeminent 8V was passed through a short chain of California owners until arriving within the collection of Siata and Fiat expert Jarl de Boer in Walnut Creek. At that time, de Boer had the car repainted in dark red, and he later sourced and fitted a correct-type 8V engine replacement (0017) in lieu of the Chevrolet V-8 powertrain which had been fitted during the late 1960s. In 2001, de Boer sold it onward to Ghia enthusiast Paul Sable of Scranton, Pennsylvania. Importantly, Sable tracked down the car’s numbers-matching Giacosa engine block (0076) and reinstalled it into the car. Chassis 043 remained with Sable for 11 years until its purchase and exportation by a Belgian collector who, recognizing the prestige of this rare Otto Vu, commissioned a comprehensive, multi-year restoration back to its original specifications. 8V specialist Lennnart Schouwenberg’s Strada e Corsa shop in the Dutch city of Haarlem were exclusively retained for the job, which was completed in 2014 and notably included the total rebuild and reinstallation of the car’s numbers-matching engine, as well as a return to its original color combination of Ivory over red leather—just like it wore when Briggs Cunningham first viewed it under the lights of Madison Square Garden. The quality of Schouwenberg’s work was shortly thereafter recognized with an invitation to exhibit this historically significant Supersonic at the 2017 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It was also exhibited at the following year’s Retromobile Salon in Paris, and most recently was crowned with Best-of-Show honors at the 2022 Ocean Reef Club Concours d’Elegance in Key Largo, Florida. Presenting with spectacular flair, this breathtaking 8V remains fresh and ready for continued appearances at major concours, being an ideal entrant for top-shelf events ranging around the world. Also eligible for prestige driving events both in the United States and internationally, it would surely draw a crowd at vintage tours and rallies worldwide. With its Jet-Age styling continually suggesting motion at rest, this 8V Supersonic is a showstopper, making it a must-have for any collector of significant post-war coachbuilt sports cars. 1953 Fiat 8V Supersonic by Ghia 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 The Fiat 8V’s legacy as one of the most legendary cars ever built by the Italian marque was established at the very outset. Introduced at the 1952 Geneva Motor Show, Road & Track called it “the biggest surprise of the year,” and The Motor remarked that “the last thing which had been expected from Italy’s largest car factory was a truly streamlined 2-seater saloon.” This enthusiastic reaction was echoed by the upper crust of Europe’s gentlemen racers, and for good reason: the 8V’s performance was startling. Capable of 120 mph from its 2.0-liter, all-aluminum, narrow-angle V-8 engine, the sub-2,200-pound 8V—with its Siata-designed tubular chassis— presented an unrivaled power-to-weight ratio. Privately entered 8Vs easily claimed the 2.0-liter class of the Italian GT Championship for six straight seasons (1954 through 1959). The 8V was a prime candidate for custom coachwork, and the most striking form executed upon the model was unequivocally Giovanni Savonuzzi’s stunning Jet Age design for Ghia, known as the Supersonic. With it, Ghia endowed Fiat’s 8V supercar with a jaw-dropping visage equal to its remarkable performance. Characterized by a long front deck with steeply raked windshield, a curved nose that leads into a straight-through beltline, and small tailfins flaring off lights intended to resemble jet exhausts, the Supersonic is widely considered to be the most celebrated and desirable of Ghia’s creations. SUPERSONIC NUMBER 43 Research undertaken by automotive historian Paolo Giusti notes that this impeccably restored 8V Supersonic, chassis 43, was one of two examples ordered from Ghia by the American dealer Howard “Dutch” Darrin during the summer of 1953. By October 1953, both 8V chassis had been sent from Fiat to Ghia, and in December 1953 the completed pair of Supersonics was received by Darrin’s atelier in New York City. Rather uniquely, they were equipped with auxiliary lights fitted to the front grille and delivered without bumpers.

The long nose, thickly set hips and sensual lines come into their own with Gunmetal Grey and a red leather interior. She is like a neat lady sneaking eye contact at the Christmas table while you are in a serious conversation with your father-in-law. Elegant, but definitely the right touch of mischief. The E-type Series I was introduced in Europe on March 15, 1961 at the Geneva Motor Show and in the United States in April the same year at the New York Motor Show. When the car was first shown, Enzo Ferrari, called it "The most beautiful car ever made. To this day, he is right! The Series 1 received a 3.8-liter 6-in-line engine under the hood that came from the XK150S, a renowned and already proven block. All E-types received independent suspension and power-assisted disc brakes on all four wheels, two unusual features for the time. The 3.8L versions had leather-trimmed bucket seats and a centrally located brushed aluminum instrument panel. Take a seat in the red leather cockpit, look out over the bullet-shaped hood and grab the sporty gearshift. Only then, do you understand why we too, have this one on our personal favorite list. This Jaguar has been meticulously restored to perfection in the Netherlands with careful and appropriate upgrades. A Getrag 5-speed transmission, electric 1-2-3 ignition, easy powersteering and the diamond foundation in the sky complete the party. Owned and owned by enthusiast at heart and now for sale with us.

Fuchs forged alloy wheels, air conditioning, cruise control, an alarm system, fully power-adjustable front seats, and a Blaupunkt Reno cassette radio. This 911 Speedster shows 13k miles and is now offered on dealer consignment in California with a window sticker, the owner’s manual, service records, tools, a car cover, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Montana title. The car features widened rear bodywork shared with the contemporary 911 Turbo, a fiberglass twin-hump convertible-top rear deck, and a shortened windscreen and side windows when compared to the standard Carrera. This example is finished in Light Yellow (L117), a color that was only available via paint-to-sample in 1989. The car is also equipped with a brown soft top, integrated fog lights, rear bumperettes, and a single exhaust outlet. A Porsche Club of America badge has been added to the engine lid. Photographs of paint-meter readings are shown in the gallery below. Color-matching 16? Fuchs forged alloy wheels are mounted with Bridgestone Potenza Sport tires. Braking is handled by black Porsche-script calipers over cross-drilled rotors at all four corners. The cabin is trimmed in Mahogany partial leather and was optioned with fully power-adjustable seats, cruise control, an alarm system, air conditioning, and a Blaupunkt Reno SQR 46 cassette stereo. The Speedster was not equipped with rear seats. The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation including a central tachometer with a 6,300-rpm redline flanked by a 170-mph speedometer, an analog clock, and gauges for oil temperature, oil pressure, oil level, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 13k miles, approximately 50 of which were added under current ownership. The 3.2-liter flat-six features Bosch fuel injection and was factory rated at 215 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a G50 five-speed manual transaxle. The underside received a dry-ice cleaning in preparation for the sale and dditional photographs are shown in the gallery below.

Of all the great 1960s sports cars, few are as influential or as infamous as the legendary Shelby Cobra. A fortunate partnership between AC and their lightweight British sports car, and Le Mans-winning driver Carroll Shelby resulted in the latest Ford lightweight V-8 sitting in the European fettled chassis of the Ace. The result of this transplant contributed enormously to Ford’s motorsport dominance of International Sports Car racing during the late 1960s. European chassis dynamics partnered with the power of the new V-8 meant that in competition trim, Cobras achieved an impressive record. The 260ci (4.2-litre) prototype first ran in January 1962, with production commencing later that year. Exclusively for the USA initially, Cobras - minus engines - were sent from England to be finished off by Shelby in California, and it was not until late in 1963 that AC Cars in Thames Ditton got around to building the first fully finished cars to European specification. After 75 cars had been built, the 289ci (4.7-litre) unit was standardised in 1963. Rack-and-pinion steering was the next major up-date; then in 1965 a new, stronger, coil-suspended chassis was introduced to accommodate Ford's 427ci (7.0-litre) V8, an engine that in race trim was capable of producing well in excess of 400bhp. Wider bodywork, extended wheelarch flares and a bigger radiator intake combined to create the definitive - and often imitated - Cobra 427 look. Today in Historic Racing, the "Pre 63" era of race series is one of the very best in the Historic Motorsport Scene blessed with some of the most beautiful racing cars ever produced such as the Ferrari 250 SWBs, 250 GTOs, Aston Martin DB4 GTs, early AC Cobras (260ci items only) and the early Jaguar E-Types which are distinguished from the later “Semi Lightweight” variants by their wire wheels, bumpers and SU Carburettors. Not only does the grid look much “prettier” than the later Pre-66 Grids but the cars have noticeably less grip leading to wonderful racing which has proved such a delight that it spawned in 2016 a new race at the Goodwood Revival – The “Kinrara Trophy” which has since become the new highlight of the Revival Meeting. Laterly it has been renamed the Stirling Moss Memorial Trophy and will usually be the opening race of the event into the dusk on Friday evening. This success and appeal has been noted in Europe as well with the establishment of a complimentary series under the Peter Auto umbrella too. Retaining the original narrow-bodied lines of the AC Ace, this rare 260 (denoted as such due to the engine having 260 cubic inches of capacity) was from the genesis of the relationship of Caroll Shelby with the humble British sports car, from a time before the elegant and simplistic form of the AC gave way the flared arches and wide tyres of the 289, and the later and even more evolved 427. This specific car was invoiced to Shelby American on 25th October 1962, and was optioned with aluminium rocker arm covers, wind-wings, sun visors, front and rear bumpers, chrome exhaust tips and a heater. It was shipped to Los Angeles where SS Research & Development would handle its sale to famed racer John Razelle of Seattle. It was then raced successfully in the Pacific Northwest by Razelle who consistently demonstrated the strengths of the Cobra. Highlights of the car's period racing history include breaking the record at the Mount Douglas Hillclimb by over three seconds, and the feared pair of Razelle and the white Cobra becoming a staple of the Westwood Racing Circuit in British Columbia, after winning there by over twelve seconds in 1964. The pair would continue their campaign, which involved further wins over multiple seasons, in other SCCA circuit and Hillclimb events. Following its racing career, the car was purchased by W. E. Thomason in Missouri in 1982. CSX 2035 was then sold to Dale Bliss in Oklahoma in 1987. The car remained in the U.S. until 1988, when it was sold by Robs Lamplough and subsequently shipped to England. The car was registered in the UK from this point and went up for sale after being bought by Bill Harding of Hall & Hall in 2006. After passing through an owner who used the Cobra as a road vehicle on the Isle of Man, its next custodian elected to have a comprehensive, total and faithful restoration performed on the car by Pursuit Racing, which culminated in 2022, and brought the car back to its initial racing specification where it raced at the Silverstone Classic and the Goodwood Revival in that year. Just as how CSX 2035 was succesful in period, the car once again got to display its performance for its time, post restoration, when it achieved overall victory in the Stirling Moss Memorial Trophy at the 80th edition of the Goodwood Members' Meeting in early 2023 (for 2023 this race was moved to the Members' Meeting instead of the Revival and will in 2024 likely feature once again at the Revival). This highly eligible and rare period race car, which crucially is one of only a handful of the very early 260 variant, are the only Cobras allowed to race in pre-1963 events such as the Goodwood Stirling Moss Memorial Trophy. Due to the popularity of the Goodwood event it is almost critical that one must present a car not only in period specification, but also with period racing history in order that it may receive an entry. Owing to their light weight, and the large and powerful 4.2 litre Ford V-8 engine, 260 Cobras are distinctly the most performant cars in their class, and this proven example presents an unmatched opportunity to continue the story of an early Cobra’s racing history.

A fortunate partnership between AC and their lightweight British sports car, and Le Mans-winning driver Carroll Shelby resulted in the latest Ford lightweight V-8 sitting in the European fettled chassis of the Ace. The result of this transplant contributed enormously to Ford’s motorsport dominance of International Sports Car racing during the late 1960s. European chassis dynamics partnered with the power of the new V-8 meant that in competition trim, Cobras achieved an impressive record. The 260ci (4.2-litre) prototype first ran in January 1962, with production commencing later that year. Exclusively for the USA initially, Cobras - minus engines - were sent from England to be finished off by Shelby in California, and it was not until late in 1963 that AC Cars in Thames Ditton got around to building the first fully finished cars to European specification. After 75 cars had been built, the 289ci (4.7-litre) unit was standardised in 1963. Rack-and-pinion steering was the next major up-date; then in 1965 a new, stronger, coil-suspended chassis was introduced to accommodate Ford's 427ci (7.0-litre) V8, an engine that in race trim was capable of producing well in excess of 400bhp.

Paris Motor Show, 1973. After 20 years of exclusive collaboration with Pininfarina, Ferrari unveiled the Dino 308 GT4, a model equipped with a V8 engine imagined by Bertone. In his Turin workshop, Maestro Marcello Gandini accomplished a real feat: designing an attractive 2+2 with a rear mid-engine in a body just over 4.30 meters long. The Dino 308 GT4 was the first completely new Ferrari model since Fiat took control of the Maranello production vehicle department in 1969. The successor to the 246 GT, it was presented at the 1973 Paris Motor Show. The 308 GT4 inaugurated a three-liter V8 (a return to the displacement of the 250 GT), which would be carried over to the 308 GTB. Unlike the V6 of the Dino 246, which was produced at Fiat, the 308's engine was made in Maranello. The four overhead camshafts are driven by two toothed belts, as on the 12-cylinder boxer engine. Mounted transversely in the center of the car, this engine (with wet sump) forms a unit with the gearbox and the self-locking differential. Fed by four Weber twin-barrel carburetors, it develops 250 bhp at 7,700 rpm, with the torque remaining at the same level. Another singularity, and not the least, is that the 308 GT4 is a 2+2. A daring concept and a risky aesthetic gamble! How do you fit four seats in a small car with a central rear engine without creating an ugly duckling? Pininfarina, Ferrari's resident designer since 1953, was hardly enthusiastic about the specifications. Nor was he tempted to take risks. So Bertone took the plunge! And we can only congratulate the coachbuilder from Turin, who acquitted himself remarkably well. Especially as the car is only ten centimeters longer than the Dino 246. Quite a feat! According to Bertone, who had designed the Fiat Dino coupé, the collaboration with Ferrari came about at Fiat's suggestion. The car's slimline front end features a plunging bonnet and retractable headlamps, while a large rectangular air intake is positioned under the slim radiator grille. Beyond a very flat roof, a sleek stern ends in a reduced overhang. The rear window is set between long quarter-pillars to accommodate two hatches, one for the engine and the other for the luggage compartment. To accommodate two passengers in the rear, the 308 GT4's driving position has been moved forward and its wheelbase extended to 2.55 metres. The multi-tube chassis and suspension were inherited from the 246. When production of the 246 GT/GTS ended in 1974, the 308 GT4 was the last model in the Dino range. It was also the only model that American Ferrari dealers could offer their customers, as the 365 GT4BB and 365 GT4 2+2 models were not homologated for that market. So the only ‘Ferrari’ they sell doesn't even carry a Ferrari badge, and to make matters worse, its performance is muzzled by emissions control equipment. This didn't help sales, so in mid-1975 the factory asked US dealers to install Ferrari badges on stock cars. Vehicles that had not yet left the factory were fitted with Ferrari badges, with the Dino only appearing on the boot. As a result, some vehicles on the American market bore both Ferrari and Dino badges. In 1975, Ferrari launched the 208 GT4, a version reserved exclusively for the Italian market and reduced to two liters for tax reasons (reduced VAT). Power was increased to 170 bhp and the top speed was limited to 200 km/h. Externally, the only difference between the car and the 308 was the absence of fog lamps in the radiator grille and a single tailpipe. Although Ferrari entrusted the design of the 308 GTB - presented in 1975 and produced alongside the 308 GT4 - to Pininfarina, Bertone offered a spider based on the 308 GT4 at the 1976 Turin Motor Show. Called the Rainbow, this strict two-seater with a wheelbase ten centimeters shorter could have been the model missing from the Ferrari range since the withdrawal of the 246 GTS. The Rainbow is an interesting exercise, very much in the style of the Bertone bodywork of the time. Ultra-modern, the sharp design uses only straight lines and sharp angles (the wedge-shaped line inherited from the Carabo and Marcello Gandini's Stratos), a bias that is even reflected in the design of the wheels! What's more, this concept car features an ingenious device: a hard top positioned behind the seats transforms the car into a coupé-spider, simply by being tilted into the closed position by the driver using a simple control. The Dino brand came to an end in 1976, when the prancing horse replaced the Dino logo on the 308 GT4, which now bore the Ferrari badge. At the same time, the car received a number of detailed modifications to the radiator grille and passenger compartment. In order to comply with anti-pollution and safety standards, the American version of the 308 GT4 was disfigured by unsightly retractable bumpers, while power was cut by around 10%. This loss, combined with a significant weight gain, put a damper on performance... and sales! In Europe, the commercial fortunes of the 308 GT4 also followed a downward curve, and production of the car was discontinued in 1980.Built between 1974 and 1980, 2,826 examples of the 308 GT4 and 840 of the 208 GT4 were produced, a figure considerably higher than that of the Dino 246 GT. Although the 308 GT4 was not particularly designed for competition, it nevertheless enjoyed the hot atmosphere of the racetrack. It owes this singular adventure to the intrepid Luigi Chinetti, who entered one of the first cars to leave the factory in the 1974 Le Mans 24 Hours. In addition to a tuned engine, the NART 308 GT4 was fitted with aluminum or fiberglass body panels and Plexiglas windows, a spoiler, a huge rear overhang spoiler and Speedline wheels. The car retired at the end of the fourth hour due to a broken driveshaft. Our Dino 308GT4 was delivered in July 1976 by Ferrari agent Daverat in Bayonne. All of its owners are known, as is its mileage, as confirmed by its maintenance booklet and all of the copies of the registration documents and roadworthiness tests on file. Always perfectly maintained, it has undergone rigorous servicing and all the attention of its last owner. The distribution has been done, the carburetors are adjusted, the original rims have been restored etc. It is ready to take you on the winding roads of France, why not with your family! 1976 Dino 308 GT4 Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

"The only car that makes your mustache grow faster." -Jeremy Clarkson A hand-built car from the Kelvin Way factory near Birmingham, the Jensen Interceptor is a name with history, with previous incarnations dating back to the 1950s. This car is best known for its exceptional coolness. What distinguishes this car, the MKIII, is the evolution of the use of materials. Jensen had long relied on fiberglass reinforced plastic, resulting in cars that were nearly impossible to restore. However, the Interceptor marked a return to a steel body, designed by Italy's Carrozzeria Touring. About the same as a shot of limoncello next to the Beef Wellington! The Mark III Convertible, introduced in 1974, was actually purely intended for the American market to compete with the E-Type. This version came with GKN alloy wheels and air conditioning as standard, as well as revised seats. The year of production determined whether you got a G, H, or J series. In 1971, the 7.2-liter replaced the 6.3-liter 383 ci engine. This is the 7.2-liter variant, and you can actually think of him as a British gentleman with rigid mood swings and a taste for a very strong Scotch! Our “Gentleman's Express” has recently received a careful dose of TLC. The car has been treated with great care to maintain the shine of rust-free perfection. Originally delivered in Bahrain with many special features that we are happy to discuss with you, this example is in exceptionally beautiful condition. She comes from a collection and is ready for the next owner. 1975 Jensen Interceptor MK3 Cool Classic Club If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
