  • 1973-porsche-911-27-rs-fia-replica

    The 911 Carrera 2.7RS was the ultimate iteration of the 911 in 1973 and remains one of the most sought-after models of the air-cooled 911s. The 2.7 RS was the first 911 to adopt the Carrera name, honouring Porsche’s success at the Carrera Panamericana races during the 1950’s and the first of many stripped out Porsche Road cars to bear the RS denomination which stands for Rennsport or motor racing in German. The Carrera 2.7 Rs was created in 1973 as a homologation special for the Group 4 FIA rally specification. The engine was upgraded from 2.4 to 2.7 litre and fitted with Bosch fuel injection increasing power to a claimed 210bhp which propelled the car onto a top speed of 150 mph. The car proved an instant success in competition with many notable results.

  • 1980 BMW M1 AHG Studie

    Among the rarest models BMW has ever built and the first to be created entirely under the purview of its elite M division, the M1 is a hand-built homologation special developed in the late-seventies to dominate racing competition. BMW Motorsport initially planned to build enough of the mid-engine coupes to meet the regulation for FIA Group 5; however, rule changes enacted during the car’s protracted development required a minimum of 400 examples be built to meet Group 4 regulations before the car could be homologated for Group 5. Rather than delay the racing program, BMW decided to create a one-make series while it continued further development and ramped up enough production to meet homologation requirements. The Procar BMW M1 Championship was announced in the spring of 1978, along with the official unveiling of the M1 road car. While Procar competition only lasted two seasons, running as a Formula One support series from 1979 to 1980, its popularity was undeniable. With their flared fenders, imposing front spoiler, massive rear wing, and incredible power, the M1’s presence on the racetrack left a lasting impression. Street and competition versions of the M1 were produced in tandem, with around 450 units in total being built from 1978 through 1981. With homologation requirements finally met, the M1 would be campaigned in various world championships, including the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Intent on using a mid-engine layout, BMW initially contracted Lamborghini to develop the M1 chassis, with the tubular steel spaceframe being devised with input from noted Italian engineer Gianpaolo Dallara. Lamborghini’s ensuing financial struggles delayed development and dissolved the partnership, but a group of disenfranchised engineers from the Italian automaker banded together and founded their own company to complete the work. The final product was impressive, featuring a rigid spaceframe and sophisticated, double-wishbone suspension with adjustable coil springs and Bilstein gas-filled dampers. The precise rack-and-pinion steering was unassisted. Angular fiberglass bodywork by famed designer Giorgetto Giugiaro gave the M1 visual impact commensurate with its performance potential. At the heart of the beast was BMW’s newly developed M88 3,453-cubic-centimeter inline six-cylinder engine, brimming with advancements, including six individual throttle bodies and mechanical fuel injection. In the road car, it produced 277 horsepower at 6,500 rpm, 243 pounds-feet of torque at 5,500 rpm, and an adrenaline-pumping shriek at full throttle. A ZF five-speed manual transaxle with a limited-slip differential put power to pavement. In 1982, after the Procar series ended and production for the M1 ceased, Peter Gartemann, president and owner of the German BMW dealer AHG, decided to create a limited-production design study inspired by the look of the mighty M1 Procars. This option package, called AHG Studie, transformed a standard road-going M1 into the ultimate Procar-style street machine. From the outside, the changes were clear, with aggressive Procar-inspired front and rear spoilers, side skirts, and flared wheel arches. But modifications went well beyond the imposing bodywork. The M1 AHG Studie cars received an adjustable racing suspension and 16-inch three-piece BBS wheels—eight inches wide up front and nine inches at the rear. The engine was uprated to 350 horsepower and mated to a special racing clutch and a new exhaust system. Still very much intended for the street, the interior was upgraded with leather seat inserts in place of the stock cloth ones and additional speakers were added to enhance the stereo system. Further increasing exclusivity, AHG commissioned the renowned German paint shop of Hermann Altmiks to finish each M1 in unique livery as directed by the customer. The cost was astronomical as the modifications were certified by TÜV, the German technical inspection association, requiring extensive testing and approvals. It is believed that no more than 10 examples with the AHG Studie package were created, each one unique. The M1 AHG Studie offered here is believed to be an original AHG M1 Studie, as indicated by markings throughout the body, including the “altmiks lackdesign” signature painted just below the driver-side taillight. According to BMW Classic, chassis 4301090 was built in 1979 and delivered on August 30 of that year to BMW dealer Schneider in Bielefeld, Germany. The original color was White (206). Not much is known about its early history other than that an owner saw fit to invest a considerable sum in modifying it with the AHG Studie package, replete with BMW Motorsport’s iconic tricolor livery. The car would ultimately find its way into the famous Ed Weaver Collection in Dalton, Georgia, where it resided until 1995. In 2011, it was purchased by renowned collector Don Davis. Soon thereafter, it was acquired by the AE Collection of Paul Walker and Roger Rodas in California, known for its rare Japanese and European sports cars. The car was acquired in 2014 by a subsequent owner, who had the water pump rebuilt in 2015, and the oil changed, the coolant and brake fluid flushed, the battery and an outer tie-rod replaced, and the valve cover repainted in 2018. The California-based consignor acquired the car in February 2021. It has been sparingly driven its entire life, showing only 6,821 kilometers on the odometer at cataloguing time. One the most exclusive BMWs ever produced, this sparingly driven AHG-modified M1 is even more compelling than the already stellar standard model. With stunning Procar-inspired bodywork, a one-off tricolor livery, and increased performance from the uprated M88 engine, it is surely among the most attractive and collectable examples of its type. 1980 BMW M1 AHG Studie RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1964 Ferrari 250 GT/L Berlinetta Lusso by Scaglietti 1

    Introduced at the 1962 Paris Salon, Ferrari’s 250 GT/L was undoubtedly one of the most attractive grand touring cars ever built. Intended as a replacement for the 250 GT coupe, the “L” stood for Lusso and featured an all-new interior arrangement highlighted by a revised dash panel and leather upholstery throughout the cabin. Built to cross continents in unrivalled style while cossetting a driver, passenger, and plenty of luggage, it looked simply stunning whilst sitting still and just as beautiful at speed. Mechanically, Ferrari’s Tipo 168 U engine was the ultimate development of the short-block Colombo 3.0-litre V-12, featuring outside-plug ignition and single-cylinder porting that had proven so successful in the 250 Testa Rossa and California Spider. Further improvements were made to the chassis including four-wheel disc brakes, coil-over shock absorbers at all four corners, and a rear Watts linkage that had been perfected on the 250 GTO. While the bodywork itself was designed by Pininfarina, the construction of it was carried out by Scaglietti and it is truly amongst the pair’s very best work. Boasting Ferrari’s now-typical egg-crate grille, its delicately curved fenders gave way to a bright, airy cabin and flowed into a fastback “Kamm tail". Originally owned by jet-set luminaries and celebrities, such as Steve McQueen, the Lusso was built in a modest quantity of just 350 examples over roughly two years of production. The GT/L has since evolved into one of Maranello’s most collectable production models, essentially the final and most developed evolution of the revered 250 GT lineage. The Lusso offered here, chassis number 5913, was completed as a left-hand-drive model for the United States market in Grigio Argento over Nera on 13 July 1964, and later that month delivered for sale to Luigi Chinetti Motors, the prominent distributor and importer in New York City. Its subsequent history is unknown, but it made its way West and in June 1987 was offered for sale in the Los Angeles Times by MDR Enterprises of Marina Del Rey, California, by which time, like so many Ferraris of the era, it had been finished in red with black interior. It is next known to have been owned in 1999 by Mel Farrar, owner of Farrar Precision Engineering in Sheffield, England. in whose long-term, loving ownership it bore the cherished registrations “460 GTO” and, later, “MEL 8”. It is believed that the car was restored in England for Mr Farrar in the late-1990s, in Rosso Chiaro over Crema interior. The car would be proudly and widely shown by him at several Ferrari Owners' Club of England national meetings and concours events through the 2000s, finally being offered for sale from his ownership in 2013. Subsequently it was purchased around 2016 by an owner in London, in whose ownership it was driven in the Rallye Padre-Figlio in Monaco in October 2018. In 2019 the car was issued its Ferrari Classiche certification with accompanying Red Book, noting that it retains its matching-numbers chassis, engine, gearbox, and bodywork. Further improving its credentials, it has recently been refinished to its striking and handsome original colour of Grigio Argento, retaining the excellent tan interior fitted in its previous restoration. Receipts are on file for the new finish as well as for additional mechanical sorting, including the fitment of a new balanced clutch and flywheel in 2019 and assorted general mechanical repairs in 2023, both undertaken by Joe Macari in London. Chassis number 5913 also benefits from a full rebuild of its matching-numbers engine, having been completed in the autumn of 2024. A wonderful Lusso to either exhibit with pride, or to drive and enjoy, this marvellous example is fitting of the most discerning tifosi. 1964 Ferrari 250 GT/L Berlinetta Lusso by Scaglietti RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1981 Porsche 924 Carrera GTS

    Club Sport engine installed at Porsche, period factory correspondence, four decades of single family ownership, exceedingly rare in the US. Highlights of this Example One of 59 GTS Porsche Factory Examples Long-Term Single Family Ownership Porsche Updated to 270hp GTS “Club Sport” Specifications After Delivery Preservation Grade Example with Original Purchase Documentation History of the Porsche 924 GTS Unless you’ve been living in a world bereft of motorsports engagement, the Porsche Carrera Turbo will be known to virtually anyone familiar with performance excellence. But Porsche did not limit their prodigious engineering capabilities exclusively to the 911 architecture. Turbocharging technology found its way into several experimental Porsche engineering concepts, eventually arriving in one of the most important volume production Porsches in the history of their development, the 924. Originally conceived as a replacement for the 914, the 924 made its debut in 1975, selling a remarkable 150,000 units before concluding production in 1988. Originally conceived as a partnership with Volkswagen, the changing times and fuel crisis of the early 70s abruptly altered that union, leaving Porsche to produce and market the 924 as an affordable performance car without VW support. For many, the 924 introduced Porsche ownership to a new generation of enthusiasts, combining excellent road manners and reliability in a car that could be readily serviced and easily maintained. The unique styling was also highly celebrated particularly in that it echoed Porsche’s water-cooled halo car; the 928. Though the initial 924 was celebrated for its combination of fuel-economy and reliability, performance officially woke up in 1980 when a KKK Turbocharger was added, making it a true performance car on a par with the Porsche name. Offered for just a few years, the 1980 model Turbo saw US production delivery of just 3,440 units. Rarer still and even more desirable, the Carrera GT was yet another step up in the performance lineage. In the initial GT iteration, 406 factory 924 GTs were produced. The GT model was lightened by 330 pounds, lowered, and fitted with a 210 hp engine. The body was extensively modified to allow for wider 7- and 8-inch Fuchs wheels and tires, wider front and rear track, riveted rear fenders and smoothly flared front fenders. The resultant configuration was both visually impressive and quite capable in the performance arena. Rarer still, the GTS was offered in 1981 distinguished by plastic covered rectangular headlights and a distinct front air intake design. According to expert Roy Smith, as documented in his book, 59 GTS examples were factory built. The GTS engine was reworked to 245 hp and the car further lightened with fiberglass body features and Plexiglas windows. The final and most sought-after iteration was the “Club Sport” GTS. This included a 270 hp engine boasting a larger air-to-air intercooler at 1.1 Bar achieving 60 mph in 5.2 seconds with a 160 mph top speed. A mere 15 GTS Club Sport versions were assembled at the factory. History of this Porsche Carrera GTS This example is one of just 59 Carrera GTS models built. Completed July 3, 1981, it was delivered to the first owner, located in Germany. Shortly after taking delivery, the first owner commissioned Porsche to upgrade this GTS with the highly desirable Porsche factory 270 hp Club Sport engine, installed March 3, 1982. Porsche invoiced service documentation included with the car, dated March 3, 1982, describes the installation of the 270hp Club Sport engine. Further records for service while under original ownership indicate May 4, 1982, with 1,378 kms and May 26, 1982, with 2,057 kms. The father of the current owner purchased this car in October 1984 where it was dispatched via sea shipment out of Stuttgart, Emden, through to port of San Francisco, CA, arriving December 14, 1984. This Porsche has since remained in Northern California under the same family ownership for the past 39 years. At the time of delivery, the odometer indicated 7,479 kilometers (4,647 miles). The father and son single family owners have since retained the car with preservation in mind, with a keen focus on preserving the original exterior features, the interior materials, and the unique body design details that make this GTS such a special part of Porsche history. Numerous original purchase documentation accompanies this rare example currently indicating a mere 8,800 kilometers (5,500 miles). Current Condition and Features of this GTS Today this rare and highly desirable Carrera GTS represents a fantastic opportunity for a preservation minded racing enthusiast to engage in a truly unique performance car. The vivid factory applied red paint is glossy throughout with overall finishes that are reflective of production quality from this era. Metal body surfaces have been digitally metered returning single digit numbers consistent with factory applied paint. There are a few minor areas that show signs of age in the paint finish, all of which are understandable given the historic preservation-based nature of this car. Rubber gaskets, seals, and anodized window trim are all in excellent condition. The handsome 15” staggered width Fuchs and Pirelli tires finish off the purposeful look and stance of the car. The distinctive offset NACA intake turbo hood and unique GTS front bumper and grille, combine with the wide GT body features to deliver an impressive statement, particularly in Guards Red. The glass, plexiglass side windows, body trim, emblems, lenses, and exterior body features are in excellent condition. The overall visual condition of the car is cohesive and impressive, especially considering the unique history, rarity of construction, and the uprated Club Sport 270 hp engine. The black factory configured interior features original materials and components which have been thoughtfully preserved including the dashboard, rare cloth covered racing seats, unique door panels, factory instrumentation, and Autoflug racing seat belts. The lightweight racing seats are in excellent condition showing only minor signs of use to the driver’s side seat. The interior is very much reflective of a preservation level Porsche that has been modestly enjoyed while still retaining a high level of cosmetic excellence. Even the dashboard, often cracked or dulled from excessive sun exposure, is in excellent condition. The rear storage compartment is clean and tidy, displaying the original carpet and correct factory seat belt mounting points. Every interior detail is consistent with factory original construction from the 5-speed manual shifter to the triple gauge center cluster (Bar, Oil temp, Volts) and ventilation controls, all of which remain in excellent preserved condition. Under the hood, the engine and engine compartment are clean, nicely detailed and representative of factory correct condition, proper services, and generally thoughtful care. The engine bay remains remarkably stock with factory components properly in place. The engine finishes are correct as are the largely correct mounting hardware and various hoses, service warning stickers, and filter housings. A Mobil1 oil container has been cleverly and discretely fashioned as a catch can. The undercarriage is as you might expect from an original and unmodified car, showing no signs of structural damage to the floor or support structure and remarkably original, clean surfaces, further confirming the 8,500 kilometers. Because this series car was designed specifically for racing use only, it is offered on bill of sale only and is ineligible for California road use. This car is accompanied by numerous original purchase documents, a spare set of wheels with Proxes racing tires, two additional spare wheels, a space saver spare tire, car cover, tools and tool roll, factory first aid kit, jack and safety triangle, tow hook, a spare set of Porsche crest satin black center caps, a spare set of Plexiglas side windows, a set of Schroth seat belts in boxes, reprinted copies of GT and GTS driver’s manuals, and various other spare parts. This unique Porsche 924 Turbo Carrera GTS with rare “Club Sport” engine upgrade has been thoughtfully preserved under single family ownership since delivered new. The exceptional preservation and excellent condition capture a critical moment in Porsche history when Turbo Carrera, Club Sport, and rarity in production converged to deliver a very special and captivating example of Porsche excellence. 1981 Porsche 924 Carrera GTS Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

There are a few minor areas that show signs of age in the paint finish, all of which are understandable given the historic preservation-based nature of this car. Rubber gaskets, seals, and anodized window trim are all in excellent condition. The handsome 15” staggered width Fuchs and Pirelli tires finish off the purposeful look and stance of the car. The distinctive offset NACA intake turbo hood and unique GTS front bumper and grille, combine with the wide GT body features to deliver an impressive statement, particularly in Guards Red. The glass, plexiglass side windows, body trim, emblems, lenses, and exterior body features are in excellent condition. The overall visual condition of the car is cohesive and impressive, especially considering the unique history, rarity of construction, and the uprated Club Sport 270 hp engine. The black factory configured interior features original materials and components which have been thoughtfully preserved including the dashboard, rare cloth covered racing seats, unique door panels, factory instrumentation, and Autoflug racing seat belts. The lightweight racing seats are in excellent condition showing only minor signs of use to the driver’s side seat. The interior is very much reflective of a preservation level Porsche that has been modestly enjoyed while still retaining a high level of cosmetic excellence. Even the dashboard, often cracked or dulled from excessive sun exposure, is in excellent condition. The rear storage compartment is clean and tidy, displaying the original carpet and correct factory seat belt mounting points. Every interior detail is consistent with factory original construction from the 5-speed manual shifter to the triple gauge center cluster (Bar, Oil temp, Volts) and ventilation controls, all of which remain in excellent preserved condition. Under the hood, the engine and engine compartment are clean, nicely detailed and representative of factory correct condition, proper services, and generally thoughtful care. The engine bay remains remarkably stock with factory components properly in place. The engine finishes are correct as are the largely correct mounting hardware and various hoses, service warning stickers, and filter housings. A Mobil1 oil container has been cleverly and discretely fashioned as a catch can. The undercarriage is as you might expect from an original and unmodified car, showing no signs of structural damage to the floor or support structure and remarkably original, clean surfaces, further confirming the 8,500 kilometers. Because this series car was designed specifically for racing use only, it is offered on bill of sale only and is ineligible for California road use. This car is accompanied by numerous original purchase documents, a spare set of wheels with Proxes racing tires, two additional spare wheels, a space saver spare tire, car cover, tools and tool roll, factory first aid kit, jack and safety triangle, tow hook, a spare set of Porsche crest satin black center caps, a spare set of Plexiglas side windows, a set of Schroth seat belts in boxes, reprinted copies of GT and GTS driver’s manuals, and various other spare parts. This unique Porsche 924 Turbo Carrera GTS with rare “Club Sport” engine upgrade has been thoughtfully preserved under single family ownership since delivered new. The exceptional preservation and excellent condition capture a critical moment in Porsche history when Turbo Carrera, Club Sport, and rarity in production converged to deliver a very special and captivating example of Porsche excellence.

  • 1988 Porsche 959S

    The Porsche 959 represents a new era of "super sports cars". Its 2.8-liter twin-turbo engine is closely related to the powerplant found in the 962C, a race car that has won many titles on the track. The staged twin-turbocharging enables the car to accelerate quickly even at low revs. The 959 is equipped with modern technology such as an electronically controlled four-wheel-drive system with ABS, four pre-programmable shock absorber settings, and speed-dependent ride control. The chassis and body are made of innovative materials using advanced manufacturing technologies. The "Sport" version, which is limited to only 29 units, is 100 kilograms lighter than the "Komfort" version. The engine of the "Sport" version has modified turbochargers, increased boost pressure, and adjusted ignition and fuel injection, which gives it an additional 65 horsepower over the "Komfort" model, for a total of 508 horsepower. According to a test conducted by the specialist magazine "Auto, motor & sport", the 959 S achieved a top speed of 339 km/h. Between 1986 and 1988, Porsche delivered 292 units of the 959 "Komfort" and "Sport" to customers, with 337 cars being built, including prototypes and pre-production models. "the 959 is a technological milestone, likely to be remembered as the greatest sports car of the ’80s"…Car Magazine "the word "perfect" is difficult to avoid"… Car & Driver Chassis 014 The 959 presented here today is one of the 29 "S" or Sport models. Offered publicly for the first time in over 10 years, chassis 014 must be one of the lowest-mileage 959S' in existence. Originally sold to a single owner in California before joining its current U.S. Collection where it has resided since 2013 alongside some of the finest collector cars in the world. Today, chassis 014 shows just 516 original miles and remains in incredibly well-preserved condition. The Porsche 959 stands as a monument to Porsche's relentless pursuit of perfection. It is an embodiment of speed, innovation, and exclusivity. This is not just a chance to own a car; it's the opportunity to possess a piece of history, a testament to the pinnacle of automotive achievement.

  • 1957 Lancia Aurelia B20

    While the Lancia of today produces only a single model of car sold only to its home market, it is important to remember that the marque has a truly fascinating and rich history, pioneering many automotive firsts in both pre- and post-war automobiles with an illustrious list of results throughout many disciplines in motorsport. Easy to overlook by those who are not students of automotive history, Lancia has a fervent following of fans spanning the marque’s entire 116-year history, and their cars are renowned for their character and Italian flair. Whilst Italian marques like Alfa Romeo and Fiat are well-known to the public, today, Lancia ownership signifies a deep appreciation of Italian automobiles; these are cars for true connoisseurs and enthusiasts. If you are looking to exude automotive passion with an Italian flair, surely there can be no better automobile? Amongst its most celebrated models is the humble Aurelia. This was the first production car with a V-6 engine, and the first provided with radial tires. It combined Lancia’s torsionally stiff unit-body construction and traditional sliding-pillar front suspension with a rear transaxle and a multi-link rear suspension. First introduced in 1950, numerous updates were introduced over the years, ending with the sixth series of the model—whose specification included improved sound deadening for additional road comfort—as well as added features such as opening front quarter windows. When production of the Aurelia concluded, it boasted an engine displacement of 2,451 cubic centimeters (introduced in the 3rd series) and a DeDion rear axle (introduced in the 4th series). This 6th series example, bearing chassis number B20-3857, was also fitted with a desirable Nardi floor shift, and it boasts a fascinating history in its adopted home of the United Kingdom. One of only 25 B20s imported by the UK distributor Lancia England Ltd., chassis 3857 was first registered as “5 LME” on 2 July 1957, and it is accompanied by its original buff logbook. Chassis 3857 was retained by Lancia England as a demonstrator and press car, and a road test of the car (a copy of which is on file) was featured in the 8 November 1957 issue of Autocar, who said of the B20: “In appearance it is classically stylish without need of ornament, and the general standard of finish, of both bodywork and mechanical components, is almost beyond criticism; without doubt it is one of the most desirable sporting cars of the decade.” In 1992, chassis 3857 was sold to an Italian owner who had the car fully restored in Italy, as photographically documented in the car’s comprehensive history file. In 2008, 3857 returned to the UK, at which time it regained its original 5 LME registration and was recommissioned by marque specialist Omicron Engineering. It was subsequently entered in the 2010 Mille Miglia Storica, a testament to its usability on the road. More recently, in 2019, the car was comprehensively serviced by Thornley Kelham, a leading Aurelia specialist. The car was recently driven by an RM Specialist who noted that “it is a great car for touring. Capable of keeping up with modern traffic, it sounds fantastic. Most importantly, you can explore the best of the car’s performance without getting into trouble. We drove it on Les Journées d’Automne in 2022 and it was a genuinely lovely driving experience. Tight, rattle free, it is a spectacular example of Lancia’s renowned engineering.” This lovely Aurelia represents the opportunity to acquire a well-known and well-sorted Lancia gran turismo, eligible for important historic events… and fully capable of handling them in style. 1957 Lancia Aurelia B20 RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1975 Aston Martin V8 Series III

    The Aston Martin V8 was Aston Martin’s successor to the DB6 and the result of their pursuit to create a larger and more contemporary car. Built from 1969 to 1989, it underwent five design changes, dubbed Series 1-5, with each example being handbuilt and requiring 1,200 man-hours each to complete. The Series 3, built from 1973 to 1978 with a one-year hiatus in 1975, saw a return to Weber carburetors from the Bosch fuel injection system used in previous models. The hood was taller to accommodate the quad twin-choke (two-barrel) Weber carbs, which helped it produce a swift 310 hp and a 6.1 second 0-60 mph time with an automatic transmission or 5.7 with a manual. Emissions regulations for the 1976 model year dropped hp to 288, which brought about the introduction of a more powerful “Stage 1” engine in 1977 that helped the horsepower figures back up to 305 hp thanks to the use of new camshafts and an exhaust system. Only 967 examples of the Aston Martin V8 Series 3 were produced. This particular example, Chassis # V811379LCA, is one such Series III equipped with a 5.3 liter V8 and backed by a rare ZF five-speed manual transmission. It began its life in November of 1974 when it sold new in Illinois at Newport Pagnell Works to a Mr. Searle. It was originally finished in Cornish Gold (a very light metallic gold with a slightly green hue) over a black leather interior. It came equipped with 15″ alloy wheels, fog lights, air conditioning, power windows, and a Blaupunkt Seattle cassette radio. This Aston was lovingly driven by the first owner until 1981, when it was sold to its second owner, a Mr. John Miller, who later moved to Pennsylvania. The second owner, a member of the Aston Martin Owners Club, transferred ownership to his son in 1994 who continued to own and meticulously maintain the car until 2020, when he sold it via a dealership to its current owner. This Aston was thus part of the same family from 1981 to 2020, during which time it was given the light green metallic paint job it wears today. Some of the notable services performed shortly before its sale include a new rack and pinion, brake fluid reservoir, ballast resistor, and a power steering unit. In 2021, it was purchased by the third owner, who gave it a refresh in 2022 that included new spark plugs, wires, a fuel filter, an oil temperature sending unit, a clutch slave cylinder, tires, seat padding, defroster vent seals, door pin switches, ball joint gaiters, a refinishing of the valve covers, replacement door frame weatherstripping, a number of new gaskets, dent repairs in the floorboards, and touch up paint work in the engine bay. The factory 15″ GKN alloy wheels were wrapped in 255/60 Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires that same year, with a matching spare wheel and tire mounted under the trunk floor. This astonishingly rare Aston Martin currently presents with just over 35,504 miles, which we believe to be the actual mileage (the title corroborates this by stating “Actual Mileage”). Approximately 3,000 miles have been added under current ownership. It is an extremely low-mile and numbers-matching example of one of the most distinctive Aston Martin designs that has been kept beautifully near-original across its three owners. The healthy V8 also puts out ample horsepower and torque that will allow you to use all of the 200 mph speedometer and 7k-rpm redline tachometer. Such a rare find will be a blessing in any collection, whether it be a seasoned Aston Martin collection, a British motoring enthusiast, or any combination of the two. The new owner will receive the original owner’s manual, tool kit, a CB radio, copies of the original build sheet and bill of sale, and 67 pages of service records ranging from 1981 to 2020. EXTERIOR Body And Paint The body of this example is very tidy, with great shut gaps, and is straight down the sides. We estimate the paint to be over 25 years old, but it still possesses an excellent shine with good depth and minimal blemishes. The paint is consistent all the way around the car. There are a number of minor blemishes that can be found upon closer inspection, which is to be expected based on the age of the paint and vehicle. Namely, peppering on the front nose area, some minor bubbling on the passenger and driver-side A-pillar bottoms, two larger chips on the quarter panel right above the driver's side taillight, and a faint three-inch scratch on the passenger rear quarter. Photos of these blemishes can be found in the gallery. In pulling up the carpet inside the car, there is some surface oxidation that has developed over the years, likely from moisture being trapped. It is only surface deep and could be cleaned up if the next owner so chooses. Overall, the paint and body are in excellent driver quality condition. Glass And Trim The glass throughout appears to be all original, with factory Triplex insignias on every piece, including the windshield. As expected, the windshield does have some stone peppering. The rear window has a few very minor faint scratches, but the rest of the windows on the passenger and driver's side are clean with no major scratches or chips. The headlights are correct Cibie units, and the Lucas fog lamps are original, as are the taillights with nice patina and no cracks. The rubber trim is all there, but some pieces are a bit dry and cracked, such as the trim around the rear quarter windows. The chrome trim is in excellent condition, with minor scratches and light pitting. We believe the chrome is all original and remarkably clean. Wheels The wheels have certainly been redone at some point and look extremely nice. Upon close inspection on one knee, one can see some light scratches, minor delamination, and one more noticeable area of curb rash on the driver's side rear wheel. All four tires are Cooper Cobra GT Radials that were installed in 2022 and have plenty of tread life. Notable Flaws Overall this Aston Martin V8 presents in excellent driver quality condition and as such has some imperfections that come along with it. The paint remains in great condition but has some imperfections. Some of the rubber trim shows its age in the form of cracking and dryness, and there is some minor surface oxidation beginning to form on the metal in the front footwells. INTERIOR Seats And Surfaces The interior exudes originality from the finely distributed patina on the seats to the smell of old Connolly leather, we believe the interior is all original, even the carpets. The top of the dash is excellent, as is the rear parcel shelf. The rear seats show a similar patina and the gauges are clean and clear, with only light pitting around the chrome surrounds. The pedals, steering wheel, and driver’s seat bolster all indicate wear consistent with the mileage displayed on the odometer. The carpeting is original and very nice though the driver’s side mat is torn where the driver would rest their right heel. The headliner is excellent as well. The sun visors are original but are puffy. Functionality And Accessories All the major components seem to work, such as windows, lights, blower motor, and turn signals, but we did not try every single interior mechanism. The gauges read correctly, with the exception of the gas gauge, which appears to be slightly off. ENGINE BAY AND TRUNK Engine Bay The engine bay is very tidy and correct, as expected from a well care for and serviced example. There are no obvious issues or blatantly incorrect pieces. It is highly original in the engine bay. Trunk Area The trunk area is very nice, tidy, and original. The interior trunk light works as well. Underside The underside is highly original and very nice compared to other examples on the market. Factory undercoating is present, the original exhaust is tidy save for some surface rusting, and the suspension components, although dirty, do appear to have been serviced over the years. On the various areas of the underside where undercoating has chipped off, one can see the factory red-oxide primer underneath. Very neat. We could not find any areas of previous rust repair. MECHANICALS Engine The big British V8 engine starts with ease and settles in a melodic idle as the temperature of the engine begins to climb. Out on the road, it makes fantastic power with smooth acceleration showing no stumbles or misses. It keeps up easily with modern traffic, sounds fantastic, and is truly a joy to drive. Transmission The transmission shifts smoothly and holds power well. The clutch takeup feels great, with nice feedback. Brakes And Suspension The brakes on the car feel appropriate to the era. They do not provide modern levels of stopping power, but they bring the car to a smooth and controlled stop with no binding or pulling. The pedal feel is spot on. The suspension feels compliant and solid. It is most certainly tailored a bit more towards the comfort side of the ride, as when you enter turns, you feel the softness of it. However, it provides great road hold and feedback with no odd noises or behaviors. Tires The tires are a newer set of Cooper Cobra Radial G/T put on the car in 2022. They have solid side walls, good color, and plenty of tread depth left to them. DRIVING EXPERIENCE The Aston Martin V8 was certainly spot-on for the brand in the time period. With its muscular looks and powerful v8 engine, it blended in perfectly with the automotive landscape in the 1970s. Its spacious but well-appointed cabin, lends itself beautifully to its Grand Touring nature and the addition of the ZF 5-Speed transmission provides an extra level of enjoyment and engagement when the roads become twisty. Aston Martin, as a company, are experts at creating timeless vehicles, and the V8 certainly falls into this category too. It is extremely useable in modern life, and its fantastic looks and low production numbers ensure its collectibility moving into the future. 1975 Aston Martin V8 Series III LBI Limited 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 Aston Martin V8 was Aston Martin’s successor to the DB6 and the result of their pursuit to create a larger and more contemporary car. Built from 1969 to 1989, it underwent five design changes, dubbed Series 1-5, with each example being handbuilt and requiring 1,200 man-hours each to complete. The Series 3, built from 1973 to 1978 with a one-year hiatus in 1975, saw a return to Weber carburetors from the Bosch fuel injection system used in previous models. The hood was taller to accommodate the quad twin-choke (two-barrel) Weber carbs, which helped it produce a swift 310 hp and a 6.1 second 0-60 mph time with an automatic transmission or 5.7 with a manual. Emissions regulations for the 1976 model year dropped hp to 288, which brought about the introduction of a more powerful “Stage 1” engine in 1977 that helped the horsepower figures back up to 305 hp thanks to the use of new camshafts and an exhaust system. Only 967 examples of the Aston Martin V8 Series 3 were produced. This particular example, Chassis # V811379LCA, is one such Series III equipped with a 5.3 liter V8 and backed by a rare ZF five-speed manual transmission. It began its life in November of 1974 when it sold new in Illinois at Newport Pagnell Works to a Mr. Searle. It was originally finished in Cornish Gold (a very light metallic gold with a slightly green hue) over a black leather interior. It came equipped with 15″ alloy wheels, fog lights, air conditioning, power windows, and a Blaupunkt Seattle cassette radio. This Aston was lovingly driven by the first owner until 1981, when it was sold to its second owner, a Mr. John Miller, who later moved to Pennsylvania. The second owner, a member of the Aston Martin Owners Club, transferred ownership to his son in 1994 who continued to own and meticulously maintain the car until 2020, when he sold it via a dealership to its current owner. This Aston was thus part of the same family from 1981 to 2020, during which time it was given the light green metallic paint job it wears today. Some of the notable services performed shortly before its sale include a new rack and pinion, brake fluid reservoir, ballast resistor, and a power steering unit. In 2021, it was purchased by the third owner, who gave it a refresh in 2022 that included new spark plugs, wires, a fuel filter, an oil temperature sending unit, a clutch slave cylinder, tires, seat padding, defroster vent seals, door pin switches, ball joint gaiters, a refinishing of the valve covers, replacement door frame weatherstripping, a number of new gaskets, dent repairs in the floorboards, and touch up paint work in the engine bay. The factory 15″ GKN alloy wheels were wrapped in 255/60 Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires that same year, with a matching spare wheel and tire mounted under the trunk floor. This astonishingly rare Aston Martin currently presents with just over 35,504 miles, which we believe to be the actual mileage (the title corroborates this by stating “Actual Mileage”). Approximately 3,000 miles have been added under current ownership. It is an extremely low-mile and numbers-matching example of one of the most distinctive Aston Martin designs that has been kept beautifully near-original across its three owners. The healthy V8 also puts out ample horsepower and torque that will allow you to use all of the 200 mph speedometer and 7k-rpm redline tachometer. Such a rare find will be a blessing in any collection, whether it be a seasoned Aston Martin collection, a British motoring enthusiast, or any combination of the two. The new owner will receive the original owner’s manual, tool kit, a CB radio, copies of the original build sheet and bill of sale, and 67 pages of service records ranging from 1981 to 2020. EXTERIOR Body And Paint The body of this example is very tidy, with great shut gaps, and is straight down the sides.

It is only surface deep and could be cleaned up if the next owner so chooses. Overall, the paint and body are in excellent driver quality condition. Glass And Trim The glass throughout appears to be all original, with factory Triplex insignias on every piece, including the windshield. As expected, the windshield does have some stone peppering. The rear window has a few very minor faint scratches, but the rest of the windows on the passenger and driver's side are clean with no major scratches or chips.

Equipment includes 16? eight-hole alloy wheels, a power sunroof, fog lights, Automatic Slip Control, a Becker cassette stereo, heated power-adjustable front seats, and cruise control. The car spent time in Nebraska, Virginia, and California prior to its purchase by the current owner, who acquired the car in October 2020 and has since added approximately 3k of the 101k miles shown. Recent work has included overhauling the steering gearbox, re-coring the radiator, and replacing the water pump, thermostat, distributor, spark plug wires, engine mounts, lower ball joints, and transmission mounts. This W124 500E is now offered on dealer consignment with literature, a stamped maintenance log, service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title. The 500E was assembled by Porsche and featured wheel arch flares, revised bodywork, and a lower ride height when compared to other W124 models. This example is finished in Black Pearl Metallic (199) and features gray lower cladding. Additional exterior features include headlights with wipers, integrated fog lights, a retractable antenna, and a power sunroof. Photographs of paint-meter readings are shown in the gallery below.

  • 1969 Jensen FF Series 1

    Introduced in 1966, the Jensen FF was the first non all-terrain production vehicle to feature both four-wheel drive and an anti-lock braking system (ABS). Prior to this, the Dunlop Maxaret mechanical ABS was utilised solely on aircraft, lorries, and racing cars. Recognising the competitive edge ABS provided to racing cars, Jensen decided it was essential to incorporate this technology into road vehicles. Named the FF for its pioneering four-wheel drive system (FF stands for Ferguson Formula, developed at Ferguson Research Limited), the vehicle is powered by a formidable Chrysler 6.3-litre V8 engine, generating around 330bhp fed through the TorqueFlite automatic transmission. This powerful engine ensures that the car's performance matches its impressive appearance. MMA 40H, Chassis number #119 165, is one of just 195 Series 1 cars produced (Chassis prefix 119) and was delivered to its first owner during the summer of 1969. It was to remain in that ownership for over 30 years, although it was initially registered as a company vehicle for Auto Masters Ltd, an engineering firm in Hyde. In 2000, it was sold, or likely gifted, to Mr John Marsh, the director whose company car it had been, possibly upon his retirement. He enjoyed the car for an additional four years before selling it in 2004 and a further three owners followed before arriving in the care of our vendor. Originally supplied in white, the car now sports a stunning Royal Flag Blue exterior with a silver roof, a distinctive feature of early Jensens, but retains its original black leather interior and Walnut fascia. The Jensen is accompanied by an extensive and meticulously organised history file, housed in a beautiful green leather-bound ring binder. The file includes invoices totalling over £40,000, along with numerous historic MOT Certificates, tax and insurance documents and copies of older V5Cs that trace the car’s ownership history. There is even an old application form for the Jensen Owners Club featuring the car’s details from Mr Marsh’s membership application. The history file is a true highlight, offering insight into the car's story and the care it has received over the years. After long-term storage, Mr Marsh commissioned a restoration in 1991, with the work completed in 1993 and all fully documented across some 15 pages of invoices. More recently, #165 has been maintained by respected marque experts, Cropredy Bridge Garage, from whom he bought the car. They have continued to look after it as is evidenced by a large collection of invoices showing that no expense has been spared. In summary, this 1969 Jensen FF, with fewer than 71,000 miles on the odometer, represents a significant piece of automotive history, combining groundbreaking technology with timeless design, a rare fusion of Italian styling, an American engine and British craftsmanship. These grand tourers are comfortable and relatively practical, with rear seats and a decent boot. Although an older restoration, the car still presents beautifully and is eminently usable and not so precious that you worry about taking it out. This is a super example and seems very sensibly guided when you consider the rarity and quality on offer. 1969 Jensen FF Series 1 Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1963 Shelby Cobra 289

    1st of 6 Total LeMans Production Spec Cars Built by Shelby American in Venice, CA First Factory Constructed Racecar from Shelby Extensive Racing History Ground Up Restoration done by Bill Murray Le Mans Modifications including a 37-Gallon Fuel Tank, Rack & Pinion Steering, FIA Hood Scoop, Short Trunk Lid, Side Cooling Vents, etc. Finished First Overall and First in Class at the inaugural running of the ARRC National Championships in 1964 at Riverside In 1963, AC Cars partnered with Carroll Shelby to race at Le Mans. They prepared two cars, adding magnesium wheels, larger fender flares, an FIA hood scoop, a 37-gallon fuel tank, and a “moderately tuned” 4.7-liter V8. The race was dominated that year by Ferrari, the first five places swept by the big red 250 and 330 V12s. While one of the AC/Shelby cars retired after 117 laps, the other went on to a credible seventh place finish overall, third in the GT class, and first in the 4–5-liter class. With this success, Shelby was off to the races. Six more Cobras were built to LeMans Specification. CSX2136 was the first. Arriving in America in June of 1963, it came equipped with the 37-gallon Le Mans tank, rack-and-pinion steering, side vents of the style that would appear on later production cars, a short trunk lid (hinged at the bottom), and the FIA scoop. To add to it, CSX2136 was the first Shelby American Factory Team Cobra to be built as a race car at the AC Cars Factory in England. All cars produced before this Cobra were built as streetcars, and eventually converted into racecars. This was the first factory-built racecar from Shelby At Shelby, the car was modified to compete in domestic SCCA/USRRC road racing events. It was outfitted with a high-output 289 V8, four 48 IDM Weber carburetors, a “Nassau” exhaust system, electric fuel pump, oil and differential coolers, front and rear sway bars, Konis, kidney-bean Halibrands, Goodyear racing tires, additional instrumentation, and more. Painted black, CSX2136 was completed in time to debut at a September 8 SCCA/USRRC event at Elkhart Lake. Piloted by team drivers Bob Bondurant and Dave MacDonald, it finished fourth overall and won the GT class. Interestingly, for this Road America 500, CSX2136 was co-entered by Steve McQueen/Shelby American. The car was then shipped back to Southern California and repainted Light Metallic Blue. Its next outings were also notable: a third with Lew Spencer at the wheel at the L.A. Times GT race at Riverside in October and, later that same month, a second overall at the Hawaiian GP with Dave MacDonald again in the driver’s seat. CSX2136’s last appearance as a team car was in December at the1963 Nassau Speed Week. Frank Gardner drove the roadster to a GT win in the Nassau Trophy Race, finishing seventh overall. After Nassau, CSX2136 went back to Shelby American for refurbishing. It was sold in January of 1964 to Ed Leslie who repainted the car black, nicknamed it “Snake,” and cleaned house on the SCCA circuit. During the 1964 season #2136 would still have Shelby Factory support with the goal of winning the ARRC Championship. #2136 won its class in seven of the eleven races entered, including the major victory at the 1964 ARRC finale at Riverside. Leslie also drove the Cobra to overall and GT class wins at the May 8 USRRC event at Laguna Seca. After winning the 1964 SCCA National Championship, Leslie sold the Cobra to Foster Alexander. Campaigned throughout the northwest, it continued its winning ways. Foster piloted CSX2136 into the 1965 ARRC National Championships in Daytona where it finished third both overall and in its class. Eber later sold the car to Steve Baker, who turned it over to legendary racer, Cobra historian, and restoration specialist Bill Murray. Murray meticulously brought #2136 back full circle to its original 1963 configuration as a Shelby Team racer. Upon completion in 1992, the car won a first place in the AACA’s Junior Competition Car division. The car has been carefully stored and maintained in collections ever since. Cobra number CSX2136 is incredibly rare, one of only six of these competition Cobras ever built and the first of only three Factory Team LeMans Production Cobra’s. It’s record on the racetrack, both with Team Shelby and in the hands of individual enthusiasts, is absolutely stunning and was a major contributor to the early racing dominance of the Shelby Cobra in the US. Upon arrival at Canepa, every collector car for sale is put through an extensive and diligent process called the “Canepa Difference.” This includes a major and comprehensive mechanical inspection where all systems are checked, serviced, and restored as needed. They also receive award-winning concours-level detailing, including a thorough cleaning of each and every surface.

Upon completion in 1992, the car won a first place in the AACA’s Junior Competition Car division. The car has been carefully stored and maintained in collections ever since. Cobra number CSX2136 is incredibly rare, one of only six of these competition Cobras ever built and the first of only three Factory Team LeMans Production Cobra’s. It’s record on the racetrack, both with Team Shelby and in the hands of individual enthusiasts, is absolutely stunning and was a major contributor to the early racing dominance of the Shelby Cobra in the US. Upon arrival at Canepa, every collector car for sale is put through an extensive and diligent process called the “Canepa Difference.” This includes a major and comprehensive mechanical inspection where all systems are checked, serviced, and restored as needed. They also receive award-winning concours-level detailing, including a thorough cleaning of each and every surface.
