The Sprint Zagato is the ultimate sporting development of Alfa Romeo's legendary Giulietta. Featuring Zagato's signature lightweight bodywork and specially prepared engines, these cars were an immediate success in the world's greatest races. Amazingly fast (over 120 Mph for a 1300cc !), much lighter than any other Giulietta variant, the SZ2 was also more powerful thanks to its high-compression engine, more aggressive cams and a careful tuning. The cars were quite expensive due to the 300 hours it took Zagato to build the bodies, based on Alfa Romeo chassis. Just over 200 were built, the last 44 of which were a shortened long tail design "Coda Tronca" example.

This example was supplied new in domestic German market specification on the 14th of April 1953 to Porsche dealer Hahn Motorfahrzeuge GMBH of Stuttgart. Delivered in ivory (code R504) and fitted with a red leather interior, this car is one of the rare "Knickscheibe"; fitted with the single-piece, 'bent' windscreen made for only two years between 1953 and 1955. Only 394 "curved window" Cabriolets were built in 1953, from a total production of 1,165 made. This 1953 Porsche 356 is a Pre-A cabriolet that was built on April 14, 1953 and is said to have spent time in California and Germany prior to being imported to the UK in the mid-2010s. Finished in cream over black upholstery, the car has been fitted with a replacement 1.5-liter flat-four and four-speed manual transaxle. Additional equipment includes 16″ steel wheels, Koni shocks, a black convertible top, a curved single-piece windshield, and a Telefunken radio. The car was acquired by the selling dealer in 2023 following approximately eight years of storage, and subsequent service involved tuning the twin carburetors as well as replacing the front wheel bearings and rear axle seals. The Reutter-built bodywork left the factory in Ivory (R504) and has since been refinished in its current shade of cream. Features include a curved single-piece windshield that was new for the 1953 model year as well as a black convertible top, color-coordinated bumpers, quad taillights, an antenna, and a single exhaust exit. Gray-finished 16″ steel wheels wear baby moon hubcaps and are wrapped in wide-whitewall tires, while a matching spare is secured in the front compartment. Koni shocks have been installed at each corner, and stopping power is provided by four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes. The front kingpins and wheel bearings along with the rear axle seals were replaced in November 2023, at which time a brake fluid flush was performed. Originally trimmed in red leather, the cabin has been reupholstered and houses front bucket seats and a fold-down rear bench trimmed in black leatherette accompanied by color-coordinated door panels. Charcoal square-weave carpets line the floors, and additional appointments include a Telefunken radio, a glovebox, and translucent sun visors. The ivory-finished steering wheel features a horn ring and fronts green-letter VDO instrumentation including a 200-km/h speedometer, a 6k-rpm tachometer, and gauges monitoring oil temperature and fuel level. The replacement 1,500cc flat-four was installed under previous ownership, while work performed in November 2023 involved tuning the twin carburetors, replacing the fuel filter, changing the oil, and refreshing the gearbox fluid. The engine has been re-stamped. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a replacement four-speed manual transaxle.

4-seater with a rear engine. This was the Urraco, the first and only Lamborghini to boast such an exotic powertrain. Born in response to the Dino 308 GT4, the Maserati Merak, and the Porsche 911, the new bull received the name given to spotted-coated bulls, just like magpies. The model we offer today is the rare P200 version, built exclusively for the Italian market, seeking to avoid the taxes imposed on cars with more than 2000cc. Therefore, between the rear seats and the trunk, we find a V8 of only 1994 cc, capable of producing 185 hp at an exciting 7500 rpm. Its distinctive wedge-shaped design, conceived by the master Marcello Gandini under the Bertone brand, along with its light weight, allowed it to effortlessly exceed 210 km/h (133 mph) despite its power. It is not the most powerful Lamborghini ever built, but it is one of the rarest.

The 1963 sports season had shown the overwhelming domination of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti Super, both in the newly created European Touring Challenge and in all the other competitions reserved for touring cars derived from production cars. In the following year, many competing manufacturers, thanks to an optimistic interpretation of the regulations, entered cars with very few production components, if not only one symbolic element, the shape of the bodywork. This was the case, for example, with the Ford Cortina Lotus, on which Ford had simply transplanted the entire mechanical basis of the Lotus, clad in a body whose lines resembled those of the Cortina saloon. In order to maintain its supremacy in the face of this 'unfair' competition from Ford, BMW and many others on the European circuits, Alfa Romeo decided to employ the company Autodelta, then headed by the engineer Carlo Chiti. The solution proposed by Chiti was the creation of a new car based on the Giulia Sprint GT, but retaining the body structure and, of course, its aesthetics. The mechanical part was reworked to gain in power and the bodywork was made of Peraluman 25, in order to lighten the whole as much as possible. The only constraint of the regulations was to keep the rear seat legroom identical to that of the production car. The Giulia GTA was two centimetres short of this requirement if the same production seats as in the Giulia GT were used. Alfa Romeo replaced these seats with a single bench seat, which allowed it to be homologated, on the production model, the seats were a free option.Chiti's idea was approved by Alfa Romeo's general management and Autodelta began transforming the prototypes without delay in the last months of 1964. The Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA (Gran Turismo Alleggerita, or "light grand tourer") was presented at the Amsterdam Motor Show on 18 February 1965, with a weight of 745 kg (compared to the 950 kg of the Giulia Sprint GT) and an engine developing 115 HP. The modifications made by the engineer Carlo Chiti included a reduction in weight thanks to the use of Paraluman 25 panels, which saved almost 200 kg, the replacement of the windows with Plexiglas, the adoption of a new rear suspension that lowered the centre of gravity, the 1,570 cc engine with dual ignition and larger carburettors giving it 115bhp at 6,000rpm, and a maximum torque of 142N⋅m at 3,000rpm for a top speed of 185km/h. In addition, it gets a Marelli distributor from the Ferrari Dino, the two Weber carburettors increase to 45mm instead of 40mm. The camshafts were made of magnesium, as was the timing cover and crankcase. The gear ratios were narrower than standard and the gears were machined for lighter weight and faster gear changes. It had bumpers and was slightly less stripped than the Autodelta version In the competition-prepared versions, power could reach 170 bhp with a further 45 kg weight reduction thanks to the removal of the bumpers, seats and sliding windows. Of the 500 or so Giulia GTAs produced between 1965 and 1969, very few remain today in the road version created mainly to obtain Group 2 homologation. Almost all of them passed through the hands of Autodelta or renowned tuners who, with the "twin shaft" engine, managed to achieve almost 170 bhp at 7,800 rpm for a top speed of over 220 km/h. Its first race participation dates to the Trento-Bondone hill climb in 1965, where it easily won its class. Thanks to this in-depth work, the new Autodelta car won a multitude of races and became one of the most successful Alfa cars ever. In 1966 alone, the Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA, driven by official and private drivers, won over 200 races. The Giulia GTA became the "killer" on the circuits and in hill-climbing races, unbeatable in its class! With its countless successes, it soon won its first victories in national championships and even in the United States and South America. Andrea de Adamich (in 1966 and 1967) and Spartaco Dini (in 1969) won the European Touring Car Challenge three times, while Ignazio Giunti won the European Hill Climb Championship in 1967. It won the Deutsche Automobil Rundstrecken Meisterschaft three times, in 1966, 1967 and 1968 with Herbert Schultze Our Alfa Romeo GTA #613369 started its life in the Jura where it was delivered on 19/06/1965 to Mr Monneret who kept it until 1970 when it was sold to a French amateur. In 1972, the car was still in the Jura and will please its new owner, Mr Jeunet, before joining the Cuynet Garage collection in 1975, where the car remained until 1998. This is when it passed into the hands of Mr Rougemont. who restored the car to race it fot the europeen Tourism championschip. The car was regularly entered in several national rallies by Mr Rougemont, then in 2005 in the collection of Christian Lallarderie and finally in 2012 with Gregory Ramouna who will continue to race the car. It then passed into the hands of its current owner. After a few races it is decided to give back to this GTA all its letters of nobility. Tired of its racing past, a complete restoration of the car was undertaken. The work was carried out by the famous Alfa Nielman Racing garage with an incredible attention to details. The result is a perfectly new, compliant and competitive car. With its FIA HTP, it is the ideal tool for the major rally events such as the Tour Auto or the Modena Cento Ore, in which it has already participated. 1965 Alfa Romeo GTA Historic Cars 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 1963 sports season had shown the overwhelming domination of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti Super, both in the newly created European Touring Challenge and in all the other competitions reserved for touring cars derived from production cars. In the following year, many competing manufacturers, thanks to an optimistic interpretation of the regulations, entered cars with very few production components, if not only one symbolic element, the shape of the bodywork. This was the case, for example, with the Ford Cortina Lotus, on which Ford had simply transplanted the entire mechanical basis of the Lotus, clad in a body whose lines resembled those of the Cortina saloon. In order to maintain its supremacy in the face of this 'unfair' competition from Ford, BMW and many others on the European circuits, Alfa Romeo decided to employ the company Autodelta, then headed by the engineer Carlo Chiti. The solution proposed by Chiti was the creation of a new car based on the Giulia Sprint GT, but retaining the body structure and, of course, its aesthetics. The mechanical part was reworked to gain in power and the bodywork was made of Peraluman 25, in order to lighten the whole as much as possible. The only constraint of the regulations was to keep the rear seat legroom identical to that of the production car. The Giulia GTA was two centimetres short of this requirement if the same production seats as in the Giulia GT were used. Alfa Romeo replaced these seats with a single bench seat, which allowed it to be homologated, on the production model, the seats were a free option.Chiti's idea was approved by Alfa Romeo's general management and Autodelta began transforming the prototypes without delay in the last months of 1964. The Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA (Gran Turismo Alleggerita, or "light grand tourer") was presented at the Amsterdam Motor Show on 18 February 1965, with a weight of 745 kg (compared to the 950 kg of the Giulia Sprint GT) and an engine developing 115 HP.

The Alfa Romeo 1900 C Super Sprint Coupé realises Ugo Zagato’s wish to exploit the 1900 platform for racing—with his car some 100 kilograms lighter than the alternative body from Touring, thanks to its lightweight aluminium panelling. The car was popular among amateur racing drivers of its day, including the example offered here. Chassis 01845 was delivered new to one Ruggero Ricci of Lucca, Italy, with whom it was registered as “LU 20404”, wearing green paint and supplied by Great Garage International. Ricci entered the car in some local races, including the 1954 Firenze-Siena, where it was driven by Otello Biagiotti of Pistoia, who clearly enjoyed the car and duly bought it the following February, registering it as “PT 14944”. Biagiotti only kept the Alfa Romeo for four months before it was purchased by its next owner, Maria Laura Pelliccia of Florence, and it was re-registered as “FI 79653”. Two years later, Umberto Mazzi, also of Florence, bought the car and kept it until February 1963, when Venanzi Alberto Cesaroni of Castiglion Fiorentino acquired the Super Sprint, assuming the targa “AR 79653”. In June 1968, the car was bought by Lanzini Gino Santi of the same town, then it came into the ownership of Giuseppe Strippoli in September 1969, when it took the Roman registration “RM E69578”. In Strippoli’s ownership, the Alfa Romeo was parked in a garage and would stay there for the next four decades. In 2013, the car was discovered by esteemed Milanese collector Corrado Lopresto in tired but unrestored condition. Italian magazine articles (available to view on file) show the car in its condition straight out of storage, and it was then subject to a comprehensive, nut-and-bolt restoration. Taking care to retain as much of the car’s originality as possible, much of the interior trim and leather was carefully repurposed while the dashboard was painstakingly renovated, revealing the original grey paintwork. The exterior of the car was refinished in the resplendent shade of green it is presented in today. Photos of the car undergoing restoration can be viewed on file. Upon completion of the restoration, the Alfa Romeo was shown at the 2014 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, where it won 1st prize in the Postwar Preservation class. In the summer of 2022, the experts at S2 Classic Cars in the Netherlands invested more than 200 hours for mechanical preparation, which totalled around €19,000, to ready the car for historic racing events. Now the charming Super Sprint awaits its next owner for further appearances at the many events and concours lawns it would be eligible to enter, including the Mille Miglia. The car is offered for sale with its period Italian registration papers. 1954 Alfa Romeo 1900 C Super Sprint Coupé by Zagato RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The restoration, completed from start to finish by experts at J&L Fabrications, WA, is consistent with the quality and finishes found on premier concours winning Ferraris of significantly higher value. And while it would be prohibitively expensive to embark on such a restoration today, twenty years ago, the cost-no-object restoration performed on this car is said to have exceeded $300k. Records accompanying this Dino Spider begin with service invoices with agencies located in Europe as early as 1988 and a Swiss emissions certificate dated April 7, 1995. Restoration records and service documents accompanying the car under US ownership began in 2000 with work commissioned under prior ownership performed by J&L Fabrication from 2001-late 2003. The car was completely disassembled, appropriate parts glass bead or sand blasted per specific materials, suspension, brakes, engine, and transmission were removed and the engine placed on a stand for optimal restoration efforts. All duct work was removed, new heater controls installed, all wiring removed, and the steel floor pan assessed for repairs. The front floor pan was carefully removed, and new metal welded in place. Areas with light corrosion were addressed and chemically treated in flanged and folded steel areas typically prone to rust. All suspension components were rebuilt and refinished, while metal work continued on the rear of the car, rear bumper, doors, hood, and aluminum trunk lid. Chrome parts were sent out for refinishing and polishing including all stainless trim. Where needed, various new trim parts were purchased to replace mostly worn soft items that could not be prudently refurbished. All rubber and soft materials were purchased new and test fit to the car before final fitting. The rebuilt engine was dyno tested, the rebuilt transmission prepared for reinstallation, and the complete interior was finished with the owner selecting black leather to trim the seats and various interior panels. A Becker Monza cassette radio was installed inside the center console. Upon completion in late 2003, the car was shown and awarded a class prize at a subsequent Concorso Italiano. The next owner purchased the car from the restorer and spent an additional $55,000 converting the standard wheels to Borrani wire wheels. The conversion included brand new Borrani wheels, correct Michelin X radial tires, and specially fabricated hubs to allow for the wire wheel offset and correct wheel position inside the wheel arches. The current consigning owner purchased the car in 2o14 and has since tended to the car with similar care afforded by prior owners. On January 15, 2016, the engine was dyno tested returning 165 hp at 6400 rpm. Condition Overview Today this Dino Spider must be counted as one of the finest examples of premier restoration, exciting performance, and exceptional Italian coachwork. The red paint has been expertly applied offering smooth finish throughout and gleaming reflections. The forward portion of the car is treated with crystal clear paint protection film which has protected the finish from road chips. The finish is beautifully detailed, the doors shut with precision, and all panels fit flush to the body surfaces, exceeding factory specifications at every corner. The chrome trim is bright and virtually unmarked showing mirror-like reflections. The trim, window molding, emblems, and badges are all in exceptional condition heralding the Pininfarina design and Dino nomenclature. Glass lenses and turn indicator lenses are bright and vivid. The brand new zero-mile Borrani wire wheels have been correctly finished including chrome center knockoffs and Michelin X 205/70 VR14 tires which add a touch of performance character. All five of the original Cromodoro wheels are included with the car. The beautifully restored black leather interior reflects excellent quality, correct stitching, and attention to detail befitting the finest restorations. Not only are the seating and door panel surfaces restored to a very high standard, the quality and detailing are very well done particularly the seat piping and correctly pleated seat inserts. Careful dash pad installation is beautifully done with excellent contours against the wood trim panel. The dashboard houses a set of correct Veglia Borletti gauges featuring vivid numeric indication and excellent finishes on the dial faces, bezels, and lenses. The 5-speed shifter, wrapped in matching black leather, sits prominently at the console center while the various Italianate interior details convey the sporting nature of these unique and rare Pininfarina spiders. The interior is accented by a beautifully finished and correct wood rim steering wheel, featuring linear louvered spokes and Fiat center emblem. The rear seating area, finished in a similar motif as the front seats, though suitable for smaller passengers, is perhaps more inviting as travel storage for overnight luggage. Under the hood, the all-aluminum quad cam Dino V6 engine has been thoughtfully restored and detailed with originality in mind. The engine components have been prepared to very high standards featuring honest and unpretentious alloy castings revealing the Dino name across the cam covers. The correct black air cleaner, factory correct hoses, clamps, and accessories reflect period correct features including Magneti Marelli electrical components, red ignition wires, and triple downdraft Weber carburetors. The trunk area is nicely finished with correct carpeting and a full-sized Borrani spare with matching Michelin X tire housed in the recessed tire tub. The underside of the car is further evidence of the high-quality restoration performed on the entire car, featuring correct castings, factory type finishes, comprehensively rebuilt suspension and brakes, and properly specified lines, and hoses. One of the most beautifully designed open sports cars of this period, this Dino Spider is not only rare, the Ferrari connection, exquisite Pininfarina design, and superlative restoration, seamlessly combine to offer the next owner invitations to many vintage car tours or premier concours events held throughout the world. Items Included with the Car The car comes with a set of five Cromodora 14” x 6.5” wheels with contemporary radial tires, copies of numerous detailed invoices from the restoration, copies of service manuals, a jack and tire tools with black bag, a red car cover, a black canvas tonneau cover, four hubs appropriate for the original wheels, four Fiat branded triple ear knock offs, Becker Autoradio manuals for the stereo unit, and a Swiss emissions certificate dated April 7, 1995. Also included is a spare bare engine block and heads which will be supplied to the new owner FOB Seattle, Washington. 1967 Fiat Dino Spider Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Maserati had built a highly successful reputation in the racing world but its success did not come without a price. By the mid-1950s, the cost of maintaining a factory race team was straining the company’s bank account. Wanting to refocus its efforts on road cars that would earn a potential profit, the factory racing programme was temporarily put on hold in 1958. The marque continued to support privateers while attentions turned to balancing the books through a line of luxurious road-going models. Development of Maserati’s first purpose-built road car, the 3500 GT, took place starting in 1956. Introduced at the 1957 Geneva Motor Show, the first few completed cars were delivered at the very end of 1957. Featuring an elegant 2+2 design by Giulio Alfieri, the Superleggara hand-formed aluminium-over-tubular frame coachwork was created by Carrozzeria Touring. Maserati’s 3,500-cc race-bred engine was converted to wet sump and tuned for street use. The 3500 GT was a success, and the handsome grand touring car helped the company turn a profit. It stayed in production until 1964 after a little under 2,000 coupés were made, paving the way for the great GT models for years to come. The example offered here is believed to have been delivered new to the United States as one of the last 3500 GT coupés finished in 1960. The early production car is marked out by its Weber carburettor set-up, with later versions notably becoming the first Italian-made production car to use a fuel injection system. Through Maserati ownership registries, it is believed that chassis AM101*998 was once owned by prominent US-based collectors, Herb Young and Alan Cordan. The car was later owned by a keeper in Connecticut before joining its next owner some years later. Under their guidance, the Maserati was restored by a Connecticut-based workshop. This included rebuilding the braking system, carburettors, engine, and suspension while reviewing the electrical system. A new fuel tank was also installed. The interior was reupholstered in black leather, the driver’s seat rails were extended to accommodate taller occupants, while many instruments around the dashboard were either restored or renewed. The Maserati was acquired at auction in 2019 and brought to the UK one year later. An invoice on file notes that the car was taken to Neil Twyman for mechanical fine-tuning for its new owner. An excellent alternative to a contemporary Aston Martin or Ferrari, the charming 3500 GT helped return Maserati to prosperity and further cement its name in the post-war sports car world. Benefitting from a recent restoration, this example would make a fine addition to any collection. 1960 Maserati 3500 GT by Touring RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro at Bertone, the 105’s clean and distinctive design made it one of the most attractive small coupes of the 1960s and 70s and the earlier ‘Stepnose’ cars were the first of that body shape and seen as the most desirable. Of the ‘Stepnose’ shape the earliest pre ‘Veloce’ type are seen as the most sought after and this is one of those examples. Our car was produced in 1965 and delivered new in August to London and this is confirmed by the Alfa Romeo Centro Documentazione which accompanies the car. There are UK records confirming previous owners with records showing mileage in 1981 was a mere 26,833 miles. The current reading is at just 28,513. The car remained in the UK until 2004 when it when it was bought into Brisbane and was found to be in remarkably good and original condition. The current owner acquired the car in 2020 and commissioned an exacting and full restoration which has been recently finished with less than 1,000 kms use since. The current owner is offering it for sale due to lack of use and a wish to thin down his collection. This presents a great opportunity for the next owner to purchase the car at a fraction of the cost of the initial investment. Invoices which accompany the car total in excess of $90,000 which excludes the purchase price of the car itself. The quality of body is just perfect and was subject to a full strip and paint by one of the best in the business. Once the paint was removed the shell was found to be in incredibly good condition with very little metal requiring replacement, this reflecting the sheltered life the car has benefitted from. It was decided to repaint the car in the period correct ‘Medio Grigio Metallizato’ rather than its original Verde Muschio. This brighter colour looks absolutely stunning with the original interior colour of ‘Choio’. It suits the car very well and is very appealing to the eye. The paint is flawless, and the work to the body is documented and comes with the car. Turn the key and the engine fires up with a familiar Alfa Romeo growl. It has been rebuilt and running without fault. Out on the open road this car is superb and it’s easy to understand why its handling humbled many sports cars of its era (and for many years later). The gearbox has been disassembled, inspected and where necessary any parts replaced. As a result it is easy to use and everything performs as expected. Once inside, the cabin feels light and airy and a nice place to be. The dashboard is like new and is a real feature of the car. Everything works as it should with every guage completely restored. The seats still retain their original fabric except for 2 replacement panels. They are in excellent condition and the interior is a real feature of this car. The owner has had desirable ‘box weave’ carpets made and these look stunning adding a real quality finish. The boot has a replacement light grey rubber mat as fitted in period. Like much of this car it is as new. The headlining has been replaced and is the correct type. The wheels are the original and have been refurbished. All the brightwork has been polished at great expense and works beautifully with the metallic grey paint. The engine bay is pin sharp and presents as new. Even the correct stickers have been traced and used for items such as the radiator and brake booster. As you would expect the underside of the car presents is as clean and fresh as it is on top. Overall, this represents a spectacular first series ‘Stepnose’ with a huge amount of work done and significant investment made. This would be a perfect buy for someone considering restoring a car but wishing to avoid the wait or costs! A wonderfully attractive car and definitive classic Alfa Romeo. 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT Сlassic Сar Market 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 Penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro at Bertone, the 105’s clean and distinctive design made it one of the most attractive small coupes of the 1960s and 70s and the earlier ‘Stepnose’ cars were the first of that body shape and seen as the most desirable. Of the ‘Stepnose’ shape the earliest pre ‘Veloce’ type are seen as the most sought after and this is one of those examples. Our car was produced in 1965 and delivered new in August to London and this is confirmed by the Alfa Romeo Centro Documentazione which accompanies the car. There are UK records confirming previous owners with records showing mileage in 1981 was a mere 26,833 miles. The current reading is at just 28,513. The car remained in the UK until 2004 when it when it was bought into Brisbane and was found to be in remarkably good and original condition. The current owner acquired the car in 2020 and commissioned an exacting and full restoration which has been recently finished with less than 1,000 kms use since. The current owner is offering it for sale due to lack of use and a wish to thin down his collection. This presents a great opportunity for the next owner to purchase the car at a fraction of the cost of the initial investment. Invoices which accompany the car total in excess of $90,000 which excludes the purchase price of the car itself. The quality of body is just perfect and was subject to a full strip and paint by one of the best in the business. Once the paint was removed the shell was found to be in incredibly good condition with very little metal requiring replacement, this reflecting the sheltered life the car has benefitted from. It was decided to repaint the car in the period correct ‘Medio Grigio Metallizato’ rather than its original Verde Muschio. This brighter colour looks absolutely stunning with the original interior colour of ‘Choio’. It suits the car very well and is very appealing to the eye. The paint is flawless, and the work to the body is documented and comes with the car. Turn the key and the engine fires up with a familiar Alfa Romeo growl. It has been rebuilt and running without fault. Out on the open road this car is superb and it’s easy to understand why its handling humbled many sports cars of its era (and for many years later). The gearbox has been disassembled, inspected and where necessary any parts replaced. As a result it is easy to use and everything performs as expected. Once inside, the cabin feels light and airy and a nice place to be. The dashboard is like new and is a real feature of the car. Everything works as it should with every guage completely restored. The seats still retain their original fabric except for 2 replacement panels. They are in excellent condition and the interior is a real feature of this car. The owner has had desirable ‘box weave’ carpets made and these look stunning adding a real quality finish. The boot has a replacement light grey rubber mat as fitted in period. Like much of this car it is as new. The headlining has been replaced and is the correct type. The wheels are the original and have been refurbished. All the brightwork has been polished at great expense and works beautifully with the metallic grey paint. The engine bay is pin sharp and presents as new. Even the correct stickers have been traced and used for items such as the radiator and brake booster. As you would expect the underside of the car presents is as clean and fresh as it is on top. Overall, this represents a spectacular first series ‘Stepnose’ with a huge amount of work done and significant investment made. This would be a perfect buy for someone considering restoring a car but wishing to avoid the wait or costs! A wonderfully attractive car and definitive classic Alfa Romeo.

Penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro at Bertone, the 105’s clean and distinctive design made it one of the most attractive small coupes of the 1960s and 70s and the earlier ‘Stepnose’ cars were the first of that body shape and seen as the most desirable. In recent years the trend largely initiated by Alfaholics has been to modify 105 series Alfa Romeo’s. This ‘Stepnose’ is an example of one of these types of ‘Restomod’ cars and heavily influenced by the Allfaholics cars. The quality of our car is truly exceptional in every respect. After 9 years of ownership the owner embarked on a meticulous build to take the car to one of the best we’ve ever seen. The level of quality in all areas of this car is without fault and a credit to the team involved. The car was completed in 2020 and has done only around 3000 kms since. Owing to a change in personal circumstances he now needs to let the car go to the next custodian. This presents a great opportunity for the next owner to purchase the car at a fraction of the cost of the initial investment. Invoices which accompany the car total in excess of $130,000 which excludes the purchase price of the car itself. The engine was replaced by a rebuilt 2-litre twin spark with fuel injection managed by the Omex ITB ECU system. The induction noise from this set-up is simply wonderous and as expected it just pulls and pulls and pulls. The body shell was stripped, and any compromised metal was replaced. The colour whilst not original Alfa Romeo is Pino Verde Metallic – it looks simply stunning and is inspired by the Ferrari colour used in period. It compliments the interior tan colour so well. The quality of the paint and its application is flawless and the best we’ve seen. As part of the panel work done to the shell, strengthening sections were applied to increase rigidity which translates to improved performance and road holding. As expected, numerous Alfaholics parts have been used throughout the car. Turn the key and the engine fires up with a familiar Alfa Romeo growl. Out on the open road this car is just superb and is without doubt one of the most memorable test drives we’ve had the pleasure of conducting. The brakes and handling are pin sharp and the induction noise from the throttle bodies is intoxicating. Above 4000 rpm the power really starts to take hold, and the car really gets moving. The feedback is superb and the whole sensory experience is as good as it gets. Braking is helped with the fitment of Brembo’s from a later Alfa Romeo 75 and a limited slip diff and hydraulic clutch is also fitted too. Having said this the way this car has been set-up is incredibly impressive. It is not harsh or uncomfortable in any way. The ride is compliant, and it is perfectly comfortable to drive around at normal speeds. If, however, you then choose to become a bit more ‘enthusiastic’ then its character reflects this and delivers in spades. The owner specified this requirement in the build, and it has been delivered perfectly. Of note is the fitment of an electric air conditioning unit which increases the level of comfort and the cars practical use. This type of unit removes the need for under bonnet ancillary items keeping the engine bay open. The installation is excellent, and its efficiency in operation puts many modern cars to shame. It is neatly fitted to the dash area and is very simple to use too. The gearbox has been inspected and is easy to use and everything performs as expected. Elsewhere inside, the cabin feels light and airy and a nice place to be. The dashboard was refurbished with a carbon fibre face and then a satin clearcoat applied. It is a lovely detail point and pleasing to the eye. Everything works as it should with every guage completely restored. The seats use the correct Alfa Romeo materials, and the interior is a real feature of this car. A new and correct type of headlining has been fitted and the driver is greeted by a beautiful Nardi steering wheel. USB connections are available and integrated microphone too. The boot has a replacement carpet, and the rear wheel well deleted to allow for the installation of the aircon unit. The wheels are GTA style replica’s and shod in Bridgestone tyres. The engine bay is a work of art and pin sharp and presents beautifully. The battery has been moved to the boot and is in a discreet area hidden from view. As you would expect the underside of the car presents is as clean and fresh as it is on top. Overall, this represents a spectacular performance enhanced ‘Stepnose’ with a huge amount of work done and significant investment made. The work was done by experts with these 105 Alfa Romeo’s and it shows. This would be a perfect buy for someone considering restoring an ‘Alfaholics’ like car but wishing to avoid the wait or costs!

By 1961, Carroll Shelby had established his reputation as a first-rank racing driver (having won LeMans outright in 1959 with co-pilot Roy Salvadori) and, ready to kick it up a notch, he set out to build his own racecar. Impressed by the combined agility and power of borrowed Cad-Allards, he set out to create the ultimate Anglo-American hybrid. AC Cars of Thames Ditton, England provided a nimble tubular frame and aluminum body from their Ace, highly reputed for its dexterity on the European circuit. Desirous of the visceral power of a Detroit V-8, Shelby persuaded Ford to furnish their short-stroke 260-cubic-inch engine to complete the perfect union. In 1962, a brilliant yellow Shelby Cobra was unveiled at the New York Motor Show. The prototype, chassis CSX 2000, weighed in at just 2,100 pounds and was campaigned across the United States, usually in a different color each weekend. In 1963, Shelby upped the ante with the Cobra Mk II, notably upgrading the original Cobra to rack-and-pinion steering and then with a high-output 289-cubic-inch V-8 capable of 271 horsepower. The new powerplant made the 289 Cobra capable of rocketing from 0-60 mph in under 6 seconds on its way to a 130-mph top speed. The superb power-to-weight ratio enabled the newcomer to record numerous, impressive victories on the international sportscar circuit while dominating SCCA racing, cementing Carrol Shelby’s place in the pantheon of American automotive luminaries. The Shelby 289 Cobra presented here was billed to Shelby American from AC Cars on 20 December 1963 and dispatched to Los Angeles 2 January 1964 aboard the SS Dongedyk. After receiving its engine and chassis upgrades from Shelby, CSX 2274 was invoiced to Noble Motor Company of Danville, Illinois on 20 March 1964. Factory-finished in white over black trim, the Cobra was equipped with the Class “A” accessory group including white-sidewall tires and no luggage rack, an outside rearview mirror, radio antenna, anti-freeze, plus the rare twin four-barrel carburetor option for a finished price of $5,943.25. The Shelby American Automobile Club Leaf Spring Cobra Registry reports that following CSX 2274’s arrival in Illinois, it was sold to its first owner, Clint Sandusky, Jr. in June of 1964. The car is then known to have been accepted on trade by Bill Watkins Ford of Scottsdale, Arizona at some point in 1970. In October 1972 James Wagner of Dayton, Ohio purchased the car, described at the time as “near concours condition… always garage-kept and stored winters.” CSX 2274 would grace the cover of the first Cobra World Registry in 1974 under Wagner’s ownership. Wagner added five-spoke American wheels and a hood scoop before selling the car in late 1975. The Cobra then passed through a series of caretakers and was repainted in its current, classic livery of blue with white stripes at a point in the 1980s. In the late 1990s, CSX 2274 landed in the esteemed Paul Montrone Bayberry Collection, where it would remain for over two decades. Importantly, the registry does not record any accidents, incidents, or unsightly modifications. In 2022, the Cobra was entrusted to noted marque specialists Rare Drive of East Kingston, New Hampshire for an extensive freshening. Accompanying service invoices document a full rebuild of the braking and suspension systems, engine tuning, and an extensive diagnosis of the fuel and electrical systems to ensure this Cobra performs correctly. Inspection of its chassis plate, which is believed to be original to the car, confirms that the car retains its numbers-matching engine. Likewise, stampings on the door and trunk latches match the chassis number. Benefitting from exhaustive mechanical sorting and a period-correct appearance, CSX 2274 would make an ideal entry into any number of vintage tours and rallies. It is accompanied by side curtains, convertible top and tonneau cover, a grease gun, jack, and spare wire wheel. Shelby 289 Cobras are rightly prized by true enthusiasts for their remarkable performance and superior agility, resulting in a famously visceral driving experience. This example, with rare specification and a known history from new, presents an excellent opportunity to become one of the lucky few to experience proper Cobra ownershi 1964 Shelby 289 Cobra RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Shelby American Automobile Club Leaf Spring Cobra Registry reports that following CSX 2274’s arrival in Illinois, it was sold to its first owner, Clint Sandusky, Jr. in June of 1964. The car is then known to have been accepted on trade by Bill Watkins Ford of Scottsdale, Arizona at some point in 1970. In October 1972 James Wagner of Dayton, Ohio purchased the car, described at the time as “near concours condition… always garage-kept and stored winters.” CSX 2274 would grace the cover of the first Cobra World Registry in 1974 under Wagner’s ownership. Wagner added five-spoke American wheels and a hood scoop before selling the car in late 1975. The Cobra then passed through a series of caretakers and was repainted in its current, classic livery of blue with white stripes at a point in the 1980s. In the late 1990s, CSX 2274 landed in the esteemed Paul Montrone Bayberry Collection, where it would remain for over two decades. Importantly, the registry does not record any accidents, incidents, or unsightly modifications. In 2022, the Cobra was entrusted to noted marque specialists Rare Drive of East Kingston, New Hampshire for an extensive freshening. Accompanying service invoices document a full rebuild of the braking and suspension systems, engine tuning, and an extensive diagnosis of the fuel and electrical systems to ensure this Cobra performs correctly. Inspection of its chassis plate, which is believed to be original to the car, confirms that the car retains its numbers-matching engine. Likewise, stampings on the door and trunk latches match the chassis number. Benefitting from exhaustive mechanical sorting and a period-correct appearance, CSX 2274 would make an ideal entry into any number of vintage tours and rallies. It is accompanied by side curtains, convertible top and tonneau cover, a grease gun, jack, and spare wire wheel. Shelby 289 Cobras are rightly prized by true enthusiasts for their remarkable performance and superior agility, resulting in a famously visceral driving experience. This example, with rare specification and a known history from new, presents an excellent opportunity to become one of the lucky few to experience proper Cobra ownershi Other Cars from RM Sotheby's 1967-Lamborghini-Miura-P400-by Bertone-01.webp 1967-Lamborghini-Miura-P400-by Bertone-02.webp 1967-Lamborghini-Miura-P400-by Bertone-20.webp 1967-Lamborghini-Miura-P400-by Bertone-01.webp 1/20 1967 Lamborghini Miura P400 by Bertone RM Sotheby's United States 1961-Ferrari-250-GT-Cabriolet-Series-II-by-Pininfarina-01.webp 1961-Ferrari-250-GT-Cabriolet-Series-II-by-Pininfarina-02.webp 1961-Ferrari-250-GT-Cabriolet-Series-II-by-Pininfarina-15.webp 1961-Ferrari-250-GT-Cabriolet-Series-II-by-Pininfarina-01.webp 1/15 1961 Ferrari 250 GT Cabriolet Series II by Pininfarina RM Sotheby's Monaco 1961-Ferrari-250-GT-Cabriolet-Series-II-by-Pininfarina-01.webp 1961-Ferrari-250-GT-Cabriolet-Series-II-by-Pininfarina-02.webp 1961-Ferrari-250-GT-Cabriolet-Series-II-by-Pininfarina-15.webp 1961-Ferrari-250-GT-Cabriolet-Series-II-by-Pininfarina-01.webp 1/15 1961 Ferrari 250 GT Cabriolet Series II by Pininfarina RM Sotheby's Monaco Last Featured Cars 1992-Subaru-SVX-01.webp 1992-Subaru-SVX-02.webp 1992-Subaru-SVX-10.webp 1992-Subaru-SVX-01.webp 1/10 1992 Subaru SVX DLS Automobile Germany 1990-Porsche-911-964-Carrera-RS-IROC-Evocation-01.webp 1990-Porsche-911-964-Carrera-RS-IROC-Evocation-02.webp 1990-Porsche-911-964-Carrera-RS-IROC-Evocation-15.webp 1990-Porsche-911-964-Carrera-RS-IROC-Evocation-01.webp 1/15 1990 Porsche 911 964 Carrera RS IROC Evocation Classic Connection United Kingdom 1964-Alfa-Rome-TZ-01.jpg 1964-Alfa-Rome-TZ-02.jpg 1964-Alfa-Rome-TZ-20.jpg 1964-Alfa-Rome-TZ-01.jpg 1/20 1964 Alfa Romeo TZ Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH Switzerland

With big-block power, visually striking bodywork and with the performance characteristics (and noise) of a rocket ship, IMSA Corvettes were some of the loudest, brash and powerful cars to ever run in the series. This Greenwood “Supervette”, driven by the now infamous John Paul Sr. (JLP Racing), is one of two tube-frame chassis ever built, and was one of the fastest cars in IMSA and a constant threat to its competition. Fully restored by Canepa to its 1978 IMSA specifications, this aluminum big-block tube-frame bruiser designed and built by the pre-Protofab team is the ultimate expression of an IMSA Corvette. In 1976, the IMSA sanctioning body changed the rules of road racing to allow full tube frame cars to compete in the premier North American Road Racing series. John Greenwood saw a major opportunity to design and build the next generation of racing Corvettes. Designer Bob Riley would engineer the first Greenwood tube frame Corvette, built and entered into competition for the first time in 1977. This Corvette, COV002, is the second and final chassis ever created, designed by Riley and built by the team that would become Protofab. These tube-frame monsters were no ordinarily-built race cars. The Riley-designed cages and chassis were quite innovative, calling for large and expensive 2” chrome-moly tubing, using extensive triangulation for extreme strength. Chrome-moly, though expensive, is both lighter and stronger than mild steel, which paid major dividends with the completed design. The result was extremely strong and rigid frames that were built to tank-like strength. With several seasons of racing a Porsche Carrera RSR now under John Paul Sr.’s belt, he was looking to upgrade in a major way and a mega horsepower tube-frame Corvette by Greenwood fit his bill. During the off season between 1977 and 1978, John Paul bought the second tube frame Corvette from the Protofab team after talking with John Greenwood about the potential of the Corvette package. Shortly afterwards, JLP Racing picked up the Riley-designed chassis in Michigan and assembled the car in Lawrenceville, Georgia were JLP Racing housed its home base. In an effort to reduce drag and increase top speed, the design of 002 was changed from the first car and was built with a narrower track and more aerodynamic bodywork, created by John Greenwood’s team. John Paul’s Corvette was prepped in his own shop and didn’t use the Greenwood powerplants. Instead, he used the big-block all aluminum engines from one of the most recognizable names from Can-Am racing and in power numbers, Don Nichols of Shadow Racing. These bullet-proof aluminum big blocks, left over from the Can-Am days, were built by Lee Muir and reportedly had over 800lb/ft of torque on Shadow’s engine dynos. Armed with Kinsler mechanical fuel injection, the all-aluminum V8 engine was a horsepower monster, extremely capable and often pushing above the 750+ figure. This extra bit of power along with an extremely capable chassis made this Corvette a constant threat to the other competition on the track. John Paul drove the car in the 1978 IMSA season, the first race being Road Atlanta, competing for overall wins in the premier GTX category. Ongoing research and development were constantly being performed due to the Porsche 935s dominance at the time and the target to beat. John Paul had his best finish with 2nd overall at Hallett. At the end of the 1978 season, JLP retired the Greenwood Supervette after a reasonably successful season of racing with 2 podiums and three top 5 finishes. John sold the car to Tico Almeida and Rene Rodriguez of T&D Racing, who would race the car together once in 1980. The car appeared in the 1981 Daytona 24 Hours with John Greenwood as the driver, but bad luck would strike and an engine failure ended its ’81 24 Hours. The 1982 IMSA season produced strong results for the John Greenwood/T&R Racing team. The car ran as #13 with the updated GTO body style the entire season in IMSA’s GTO class with impressive results. However, Porsche competition was fierce and the team retired the car at the end of the 1982 IMSA season. This Corvette would find its way through a few collectors before arriving at Canepa. Originally purchased for Canepa’s inventory, the decision was made to fully restore the car to its former and proper JLP Racing livery. With the decision to restore the Corvette to IMSA-spec of 1978, the concours-level restoration began on one of the most unique racing Corvettes to ever grace the IMSA series. The blue fiberglass bodywork was carefully removed and stored away while the majority of the mechanical work was underway. Each and every component was removed from the chrome-moly chassis, labeling and cataloging each item down to the last nut and bolt. Parts needing replating were sent out, pieces needing new paint were addressed and mechanical components needing replacing were fabricated to the highest degree. All mechanical systems were either rebuilt, refinished or replaced to be in better-than-new condition. The all-aluminum 500 cubic inch V8 engine was sent down to Ed Pink Racing Engines where it was completely rebuilt to eke out every horsepower from the former Can-Am era powerplant. Suspension and brake systems were disassembled, crack checked, x-rayed, refinished and brought back to the IMSA-spec of 1978. Unique to this Corvette are the magnesium brake calipers, borrowed from the Porsche 935 in period. New aluminum panels for the chassis were fabricated and powder coated black. With this concours-level restoration, nothing was left untouched. With the tube-frame chassis now stripped down of all its parts, the entire chassis and body work were then stripped of their remaining paint. Canepa thoroughly addressed any parts of the chassis and body work that needed attention before heading to the body shop. Countless hours were spent on sanding and prepping the chrome-moly tubing for its signature grey metallic paint, which is stunning to see in person. The long and swooping blue body work received the same thoughtful treatment with new bright baby blue paint. The hood and rear wing, the most standout features of the car, were painted bright JLP Racing yellow. Once the frame and body were finished, Canepa’s Motorsport division went to work on reassembling the IMSA Corvette. Over the course of many months, the baby blue IMSA racer began to take shape. With components slowly reinstalled, the car began to take on its original form and return to its former 1978 glory. With all components now assembled onto the car, the final fitment of the bodywork gives the Corvette it’s menacing stance, hiding the trick chassis underneath the sculpted fiberglass body. This 1977 Chevrolet Corvette, with its astoundingly-innovative chrome-moly chassis, Can-Am era powerplant, driven by JLP’s own John Paul to success in the 1978 season and fully restored to the exacting standards of Canepa, is now the must-have Corvette from the 70’s IMSA era.
