The BMW E9 was built between December 1968 and December 1975 by Karmann at its plant in Rheine. The range consisted exclusively of six-cylinder in-line engines with a displacement of between 2.5 and 3.2 litres and an output of 150 to 206 hp. In 1968, the E9 replaced the BMW Coupé 2000 C/CA/CS of the “New Class”, on which it was based and which had been built since 1965. The biggest, immediately visible change to the body was a front end adapted to the “BMW family” with four H1 headlights. From 1968 to April 1971, only the BMW 2800 CS with a 2.8-litre carburettor engine and 170 hp was available. In April 1971, this model was replaced by the 3.0 CS (also with a carburettor engine and now 180 hp). In autumn 1971, another model variant was added, the BMW 3.0 CSi with Bosch D-Jetronic fuel injection, which was otherwise identical to the BMW 3.0 CS. This model had 200 hp, accelerated from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.7 seconds and reached a top speed of 220 km/h. According to the information available, our 3.0 CSi - one of only 8,144 vehicles built - was delivered in Italy and registered for the first time on 11 December 1972. The sporty coupé was brought to Switzerland by its first owner in its early years and registered here. In November 1979, with around 107’000 km on the clock, the CSi was taken over by his last family of owners. Over the past 46 years, the BMW has been driven with pleasure, always treated well and conscientiously maintained. In 1980, a replacement cylinder head was fitted and in 1984, at 132’000 km, the connecting rod bearings were replaced and a replacement gearbox was installed. Probably in 1989, the car was fitted with a Getrag 5-speed sports gearbox and, at the end of the year, the body was completely restored, fitted with new front fenders and a new trunk lid, and repainted in its original “midnight blue metallic” colour. In 2010, new carpets were made and fitted in the interior, and in 2013, the CSi received a new black leather interior trim. As the documents dating back to 1978 show, the indicated mileage of just under 200’000 km is verifiable, and the BMW is currently in good to very good condition and has been very well maintained. Numerous spare parts, such as the 4-speed gearbox and the original seats in grey velour, are available and will be handed over with the car. The last veteran MOT took place in May 2025, meaning that this rare Bavarian can be registered immediately. 1972 BMW 3.0 CSI Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Recently sourced from Japan, The Cultivated Collector's 1993 Honda NSX-R is a prime example of the breed. Finished in the rare shade of Formula Red, chassis 0153 presents in an exceptionally well preserved state today, showing just over 65k KM from new and retains protective plastic covering the door sills. Accompanying the sale of 0153 will be Japanese service records, manual, books and two keys. With recent servicing, 0153 is at the top of its game - eagerly awaiting to devour open stretches of highway or winding country back roads. In the mid-eighties Honda engineers were experimenting with various engine and chassis layouts in an effort to explore viability for future products. One such experiment saw the Honda engineers take a Honda City, cut it in half, and install the engine behind the driver's seat. Much to the delight of the engineers, after an extensive number of thrilling laps around the parking lot, this unsuspecting test mule led to inspiring the Honda board to decide that they would create a pure sports car, and thus the beginning of the NSX was born. Honda would consort with automotive design legends Pininfarina to create a concept car called the Honda Pininfarina Experimental, referred to as HP-X, showcasing Honda’s foray into the mid-engine sports car world. Management at Honda provided lofty goals for the engineering team, simply requesting that this new sports car would need to be as fast as anything from their German and Italian competitors, while offering Honda reliability and a highly competitive price. With this direction, work began on evolving the HP-X concept car into a working prototype that would be referred to as NS-X, standing for “New Sportscar Experimental”, with an intention to showcase numerous automotive technologies that Honda derived from its wealth of knowledge in the Formula 1 world. The backbone of success for the NSX would lie in its all-aluminum semi-monocoque, a first for a production car, incorporating a revolutionary extruded aluminum alloy frame and suspension components saving a significant 441lbs over traditional steel construction. Nestled in the middle of the car, just behind the driver and passenger seats, would be the heart of the NSX - Honda’s brand new C30A engine, a 3.0 liter V6 debuting their brand-new proprietary VTEC variable valve timing system. The chassis and powertrain isn’t where the motorsport connection stopped. Honda further leaned on their robust motorsports division to aid in developing the NSX into a truly capable track weapon, leveraging the successful hands of 3x Formula 1 World Drivers Champion Ayrton Senna and highly respected Formula 1 driver Satoru Nakajima, with both working tirelessly to fine tune chassis stiffness and suspension characteristics through seemingly endless test sessions at the Suzuka Circuit and the Nurburgring. The end product of this painstakingly thorough test and tuning regime was a chassis stiffness increase of over 50%, while retaining a near minimal impact to overall weight and the cars handling capabilities. Released to the public in 1991, the NSX was an immediate sensation with enthusiasts and journalists alike. Car & Driver, after extensive testing, noted “the low, forward, cockpit is exhilarating… like riding in the head of an arrow” and of the car’s responsiveness stated, “it's so precise in its responses, as if it were hard-wired into my cerebellum." Despite the NSX being well received, Honda engineers had to make compromises to meet a healthy balance between daily driveability and raw performance. It was decided that for those customers seeking a truly no-bars-hold racing experience, Honda unleashed to the world in late 1992 the revered NSX Type-R. Honda engineers began the NSX Type-R development by putting the already svelte NSX on an extremely aggressive diet to aid in weight savings. Sound deadening, the audio system, spare tire, air conditioning system and traction control, along with some of the electrical equipment, were completely removed, while the heavy leather electric seats were replaced with fixed back carbon-kevlar racing seats from Recaro designed specifically for Honda. To reduce unsprung weight, Honda chose to replace the standard forged alloy wheels with lightweight forged aluminum wheels from Enkei. This extreme approach to weight savings saw the NSX Type-R weighing in at an astonishing 265lbs lighter than its standard NSX sibling, for a total weight of 2,710lbs. Changes didn’t merely stop with weight, however. Honda’s suspension engineers focused on fine tuning the suspension setup to prevent sudden oversteer during high speed cornering, which was extremely rare during normal driving conditions but was more prevalent on track. To remedy this, engineers added one aluminum bracket under the front battery tray, and added one bracket in front of the front radiator to increase chassis rigidity. The entire suspension system was discarded and replaced with a more track oriented unit, featuring a stiffer front sway bar, suspension bushings, coil springs and dampers. Additional changes to the car would see the final drive ratio revised to aid in quicker gear changes, and installation of a higher locking limited slip differential. Meanwhile, the C30A engine would receive additional motorsport love with a blueprinted and balanced crankshaft assembly, utilizing techniques carried over from Honda’s racing car engine build process. The reengineering of the NSX into the NSX Type-R resulted in a highly capable track oriented weapon that would be able to keep up with the best of the best from traditional super car marques of the day - all while being financially accessible, and carrying Honda’s legendary reliability characteristics, making for an incredibly alluring package. From 1992 through 1995, Honda would only produce 483 NSX Type-R variants, all of which were sold exclusively to the Japanese domestic market, making the NSX Type-R one of the most sought after and desirable Honda’s to date. 1993 Honda NSX-R The Cultivated Collector LLC If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Before crossing the path of American Carroll Shelby, the AC Ace could have been a small roadster without great ambition, if not that of saving a moribund builder after the war. But the story of a creation as striking as the ancestor of the legendary Cobra could not be banal ... Although widely known since the 1960s, AC is one of the oldest British automakers. But his story was not punctuated with success, far from it. Founded in 1901 by the Weller brothers and based in Ferry Works near London, AC presented its first "three wheeler" in 1903. The company was then called Autocars and Accessories and named its model the AutoCarrier. Two letters that will become an emblem since the company is renamed Auto Carrier in 1907. The craft, simple and practical, is a great success and AC moved in 1911 in a larger factory that the Weller have built in Thames Ditton near London. With its growing success, AC decided to market its first "4 wheels" in 1913. It is a small two-seater sports type. But interrupted by the First World War, production resumed in 1919 with the introduction of a new 1500 cm3 inline 6-cylinder engine designed by John Weller. In 1922, the name of the company became AC Cars Ltd. Heavily indebted, Weller sells shares of the company to the investor and pilot Selwyn Edge who undertakes to elevate AC to a recognized sports car manufacturer. For this, the 6-cylinder is developed in several competition. But sales decline and the crisis of 1929 puts the company to the carpet. The brothers Charles and William Hurlock, owners of a transport company, bought it back in 1930 and production slowly resumed. Auto Carrier becomes AC Acedes Cars Ltd. Initially interested in the Thames Ditton buildings for their activities, the Hurlock brothers finally resigned themselves to continuing the sale of parts for the AC still outstanding which represent a significant potential market. Following an agreement with the Standard Group, a new line of cars is being developed for 1932. The Goodwood circuit designer Freddie March offers his services for the design of the new models that must reinforce AC as sports cars manufacturer. Gentlemen drivers are the privileged target of the company that is based on the saying "run on Sunday is sell on Monday"... The Second World War again disrupts the life of AC which stops in 1940 and does not resume until 1947. The firm is limited to give a boost to seriously dated 2 liter models. Driver Cliff Davis buys the Tojeiro roadster and wants him to install a Bristol 6-cylinder engine under the hood. This requires reviewing the chassis but Tojeiro agrees. On the occasion of his first race at Goodwood, Cliff won. Successes ensued in the course of 1953 and Davis' car soon made a name for itself in the world of motor racing. It was then that driver and gentleman Vin Davidson ordered the same chassis from Tojeiro. At the same time, the Hurlock brothers on the lookout for a model that could revive AC on the sports ground decide to take an interest in Tojeiro's car. Tojeiro also designed a chassis for Lionel Leonard and another for Vin Davinson. Through Ernie Bailey, Tojeiro met Derek Hurlock and his uncle Charles. It's also said that they were initially attracted by the example designed for Vin Davinson, but that this chassis was sold during the negotiations, and that they finally turned to the chassis designed for Davis Cliff. They'll just have to try out Davidson's car to be convinced of the validity of the idea.. The conceptual simplicity of the Tojeiro roadster fits in perfectly with the limited production facilities of AC Cars. The other interest is that at the end of an advantageous agreement it is expected that Tojeiro will be paid a royalties of £ 5 on each of the first 100 chassis sold, AC avoiding a significant investment while limiting the salary of his new employee! Based on the car purchased from Davidson, which became a consultant for AC, a first prototype was built very quickly for the 1954 London show. Instead of the 6-cylinder Bristol, the "6 Ditton" engine designed by John Weller before the war was installed. The new AC is called Ace. Car well born, the AC Ace makes the happiness of its drivers, amateurs or professionals. After winning many victories in his class, Ken Rudd hires a car at the 1957 Le Mans 24H race. The endurance race must give the small AC roadster a significant media coverage around the world. But the Hurlock brothers, near their pennies, do not quite see the Sarthe race so well. Their plans are rather to revive the production of a sedan to develop the brand, Rudd resigns himself to finance his participation in the event. During 24H, the 6 inline Bristol proves once again its incredible reliability and the small AC ACE led by Ken Rudd and Peter Bolton finishes the race at an average speed of 157.52 km/h, which gives him a 10th place overall. The class victory scarcely escapes them, just behind the Ferrari 500 TR, but the top speed recorded in the Hunaudières at 209 km/h impresses the crowd. Among them, a car racing enthusiast came especially from Texas to win the victory in 1959 remarks the English girl almost serial that runs in the middle of the big teams and ranks 7th in the race. AC cars will be present at Le Mans until 1962, during which they will find a worthy descent: AC Cobra ... Following Rudd's advice, Hurlock decided to offer an AC Ace version with the Bristol 2-liter engine for which it was originally designed. With 105 hp, it reached 200 km/h. It was therefore aimed at the sportiest driver . Some versions were later upgraded to 150 hp. In 1957, disc brakes were fitted. In April 1956, they became Ace Bristol and Aceca Bristol. Between 1956 and 1961, AC produced 463 roadsters and 172 coupes. However, Bristol was forced to suspend the supply of its engines in 1961. The Filton firm gave up producing its own engines, preferring to source V8s from the American Chrysler. The Hurlock brothers tried, without much success, to replace the 2-liter Bristol with the 2.6-liter Ford Zephyr/Zodiac. Five stages of preparation were offered, from 90 to 170 hp. This overly commonplace package was not very exciting and, alas, never really delivered. Customers shunned these Ace and Aceca bastards. Surely, the ACs deserved a far more noble engine. The situation was critical, and it was time to bounce back. Jaguar had just presented its Type E at Geneva, with its undeniable charms, and sold at an unbeatable price. In the end, it was the United States that provided the miracle that would give birth to a new myth... 727 Ace models were produced, including 226 with AC engines (1953/1963), 463 with Bristol engines (1956/1963) and 38 with Ford engines (1961/1963). For the Aceca, there were 329 examples, with 152, 169 and 8 units respectively. From 1963 onwards, AC concentrated on the AC Cobra program. Our AC Ace Bristol was delivered new on January 18, 1962 in Paris by the brand's French importer, Ets Chardonnet, to Alfred Morille of Parfums Raphaël, who registered it under number 25 LW 75. He kept it for a year before selling it to Établissements Gauthier in Paris. Later sold to the Baroness d'Espin, it then went through only five owners, all of whom were identified, before the current owner purchased it in 2012. Born white with a red interior, it was the famous collector Jean-Paul Petit who undertook its mechanical restoration at C2C, as well as its bodywork at ODS between 2006 and 2011 in this superb navy blue hue. This original French car underwent several interventions by the garage RPM in 2012 and 2013 and more recently, the file includes an invoice from AS Classic Engineering (Alexandre Surber) dated July 2021 and totaling almost €38,000 of work on the mechanics and bodywork to make the car perfect. Front and rear axles completely rebuilt; clutch and transmission overhauled, as was the rear axle; front and rear brakes, etc... These interventions reflect the concern of successive owners to use this car without worry, and its equipment bears witness to this. For example, it is fitted with a rack and pinion steering system instead of the original steering box, which makes the car devilishly efficient; an overdrive to lower engine speed on long-distance journeys; an oil cooler for efficient lubrication; an aluminum cooling radiator and a stainless-steel exhaust system. Eligible for all the major international rallies, including the Tour Auto, it was produced in very small numbers with its aluminum body and noble Bristol engine... This is a car to be enjoyed without moderation, and one that deserves a place in your collection. 1962 AC Ace Bristol Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

1 registered owner! Research from experts indicate less than 10 Slantnose examples built The most advanced and powerful Ruf BTR - Version III Extremely rare RUF VIN BTR - approx. 25 total made worldwide 12,749 original miles - Documented maintenance history since new Stunning Grand Prix White and black leather interior combination 3.4L turbocharged RUF flat six engine - 408hp Porsche 962-based Bosch Motronic engine management RUF 6-speed manual transmission With the arrival of RUF’s newest design, the BTR, RUF began gaining critical acclaim and a worldwide reputation as a highly regarded Porsche tuning house. Starting with humble beginnings as a small repair shop in Pfaffenhausen, Germany, Ruf Automobile GmbH transformed over the years into a manufacturing and tuning firm, creating excellent modified Porsches and eventually their own vehicles from the ground up. The BTR started at and was inspired by the FIA’s Group B regulations, employing the 930 Turbo body and 935-sourced engine internals as a starting point, yielding a 375 horsepower and 190-mph sports car, tested against the likes of Ferrari, Lamborghini, and even the cars that RUF based theirs on, Porsche. While RUF did provide BTR upgrades to individuals with their own Porsche vehicles already, RUF had a special relationship with the Porsche factory that allowed them to do things a bit differently than many other companies. RUF was able to purchase “bodies in white” directly from Porsche, without a Porsche VIN. This allowed RUF to inscribe their own chassis number, starting in “W09” and build their cars from the ground up. While the exact number of BTR examples produced is not known, it is estimated that there are less than 25 examples of BTR vehicles built on bespoke RUF chassis, during their entire production run from 1984 until 1993. This includes early iterations of the BTR, to the most advanced and powerful examples like this car, the BTR IIIs, making them exceptionally rare. Research from experts indicate that less than 10 Slantnose examples were built on a RUF W09 chassis. This 1990 RUF BTR III “Slantnose” was sold to the Canada RUF dealer in March of 1990 according to the car’s certificate of origin. In addition to the rare body configuration that was often reserved for Porsche’s own Sonderwunsch (special wishes) department, which included the Porsche 935-esque Slantnose and Turbo S rear air ducts, the car was spec’d in the stunning Grand Prix white, matching white RUF wheels by Speedline, and a black leather interior. The BTR III’s pièce de résistance of course is its 3.4L flat six, air-cooled engine developed by RUF producing 408 horsepower. A single K27 turbocharger builds boost, with power control being carried out by a Bosch DME Motronic engine derived from Porsche’s own legendary endurance racer, the Porsche 962. Press outlets in period noted that BTR III builds in this specification were capable of excess of 205 miles per hour. An exceptional engine requires an exceptional transmission, and RUF’s own 6-speed manual transmission developed in-house provides plenty of gearing for maximum speeds. This BTR III also included the fitment of air conditioning, Recaro CSE seats, an Alpine sound system, power windows, 17-inch Speedline alloy wheels, sport mirrors, and a leather wrapped sports steering wheel along with bespoke instrumentation including a boost gauge. In September of 1993 the RUF BTR III was purchased from J.S. Automobiles and went to its first and only registered caretaker with 2,984 miles. This caretaker would keep the car in their possession for over 20 years, with documented maintenance since new ensuring the car was taken care of and was in optimal condition. Amassing just barely under 10,000 miles over 20 years, the RUF BTR III was maintained and remained in exceptional original condition. Upon arriving at Canepa, the 1990 RUF BTR III was thoroughly inspected as part of the “Canepa Difference” process, ensuring that all mechanical systems are sound and that all cosmetic surfaces are addressed and detailed to the highest level. The care provided by the 1st caretaker was easily shown by the condition of the RUF BTR III, from the all original black leather interior to the fantastic Grand Prix white paint, and how the fit and finish doesn’t describe a 35 year old car but a much younger one. Regardless, the car was placed into Canepa’s system and the work began. The RUF’s underside was completely cleaned by hand to a concours level, from top to bottom, ensuring that all surfaces were as clean as when the car was delivered, revealing the factory finishes were in like-new condition. After being lowered back onto the ground, a multi-step foam pad polishing was performed by Canepa’s automotive artisans to carefully enhance the RUF’s Grand Prix White paint finish. The all original interior was given the same attention to detail, and over the course of several weeks the car was ready to be entered into any concours event. RUF’s worldwide reputation for performance tuning and manufacturing vehicles with Porsche roots, this 1990 RUF BTR III is an exceptional example that has been well-cared for and is in exceptional condition. With the rare “Slantnose” specification and Turbo S rear air ducts, this 408HP sledgehammer of a RUF offers a distinctive point of RUF’s journey towards tuning perfection. With only 12,749 miles since new, documented maintenance throughout its life, and only 1 registered caretaker, this RUF BTR III is a rare opportunity for someone to enjoy the full RUF experience, straight out of the late 1980s. 1990 Porsche RUF BTR III Canepa If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Research from experts indicate less than 10 Slantnose examples built The most advanced and powerful Ruf BTR - Version III Extremely rare RUF VIN BTR - approx. 25 total made worldwide 12,749 original miles - Documented maintenance history since new Stunning Grand Prix White and black leather interior combination 3.4L turbocharged RUF flat six engine - 408hp Porsche 962-based Bosch Motronic engine management RUF 6-speed manual transmission With the arrival of RUF’s newest design, the BTR, RUF began gaining critical acclaim and a worldwide reputation as a highly regarded Porsche tuning house. Starting with humble beginnings as a small repair shop in Pfaffenhausen, Germany, Ruf Automobile GmbH transformed over the years into a manufacturing and tuning firm, creating excellent modified Porsches and eventually their own vehicles from the ground up. The BTR started at and was inspired by the FIA’s Group B regulations, employing the 930 Turbo body and 935-sourced engine internals as a starting point, yielding a 375 horsepower and 190-mph sports car, tested against the likes of Ferrari, Lamborghini, and even the cars that RUF based theirs on, Porsche. While RUF did provide BTR upgrades to individuals with their own Porsche vehicles already, RUF had a special relationship with the Porsche factory that allowed them to do things a bit differently than many other companies. RUF was able to purchase “bodies in white” directly from Porsche, without a Porsche VIN. This allowed RUF to inscribe their own chassis number, starting in “W09” and build their cars from the ground up. While the exact number of BTR examples produced is not known, it is estimated that there are less than 25 examples of BTR vehicles built on bespoke RUF chassis, during their entire production run from 1984 until 1993. This includes early iterations of the BTR, to the most advanced and powerful examples like this car, the BTR IIIs, making them exceptionally rare. Research from experts indicate that less than 10 Slantnose examples were built on a RUF W09 chassis. This 1990 RUF BTR III “Slantnose” was sold to the Canada RUF dealer in March of 1990 according to the car’s certificate of origin. In addition to the rare body configuration that was often reserved for Porsche’s own Sonderwunsch (special wishes) department, which included the Porsche 935-esque Slantnose and Turbo S rear air ducts, the car was spec’d in the stunning Grand Prix white, matching white RUF wheels by Speedline, and a black leather interior. The BTR III’s pièce de résistance of course is its 3.4L flat six, air-cooled engine developed by RUF producing 408 horsepower. A single K27 turbocharger builds boost, with power control being carried out by a Bosch DME Motronic engine derived from Porsche’s own legendary endurance racer, the Porsche 962. Press outlets in period noted that BTR III builds in this specification were capable of excess of 205 miles per hour. An exceptional engine requires an exceptional transmission, and RUF’s own 6-speed manual transmission developed in-house provides plenty of gearing for maximum speeds. This BTR III also included the fitment of air conditioning, Recaro CSE seats, an Alpine sound system, power windows, 17-inch Speedline alloy wheels, sport mirrors, and a leather wrapped sports steering wheel along with bespoke instrumentation including a boost gauge. In September of 1993 the RUF BTR III was purchased from J.S. Automobiles and went to its first and only registered caretaker with 2,984 miles. This caretaker would keep the car in their possession for over 20 years, with documented maintenance since new ensuring the car was taken care of and was in optimal condition. Amassing just barely under 10,000 miles over 20 years, the RUF BTR III was maintained and remained in exceptional original condition.

Porsche 911 2.4L S (1972) – Mastered Power Few sports cars have shown as much versatility as the timeless Porsche 911, the iconic model from Stuttgart. When Porsche considered a major evolution of its famous 356 model in the mid-1950s, competition from powerful rivals like the Jaguar E-Type, Ferrari 250 GT, and Mercedes-Benz SL pushed the German manufacturer to aim even higher. With over 76,000 units produced, the 356 had already established Porsche as a major player in the sports car market, but a profound renewal was necessary. Ferdinand "Butzi" Porsche, son of Ferry Porsche, was tasked with designing a new elegant yet functional silhouette, while his cousin Ferdinand Piëch developed an innovative engine: the famous air-cooled flat-six. Initially presented under the name 901 at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1963, it was quickly renamed 911, clearly displaying its ambitions: increased comfort, performance equal to the Carrera 2 version of the 356, and a trunk volume suited to modern demands, such as accommodating golf clubs. It was an immediate success and the 911 went through a series of rapid developments. In 1972, Porsche introduced a new generation of engines, increasing displacement to 2.4 liters, available in three distinct variants: the entry-level 911 T (Touring) with carburetors, the mid-range 911 E (Einspritzung) featuring mechanical fuel injection for an optimal balance between performance and comfort, and the sporty 911 S (Sport), the flagship model offering superior performance. The 911 2.4L S stood out thanks to its advanced technical specifications: a 2341 cc engine achieved by increasing the stroke of the crankshaft (from 66 mm to 70.4 mm), connecting rods treated by the Tenifer process, and Bosch mechanical injection type 911/53 ensuring precision, power, and durability. This version delivered a remarkable power output of 190 DIN horsepower at 6500 rpm and a generous torque of 199 Nm at 5200 rpm. The dry-sump lubrication system, inherited from competition, significantly improved reliability under extreme conditions, making it suitable for intensive circuit use. The interior of the 911 2.4L S received special attention: the cockpit featured supportive sport seats upholstered in leather or leatherette according to customer preferences, a leather-wrapped three-spoke sports steering wheel offering excellent grip, and a comprehensive, clear, and readable instrumentation panel. The central tachometer, a genuine Porsche hallmark, was complemented by a speedometer calibrated up to 250 km/h and precise gauges monitoring oil temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. The entire interior exuded quality and meticulous attention to detail, ensuring comfortable journeys even during extended sporty driving sessions. In competition, the 911 2.4L S quickly made its mark with exceptional performance and reliability. It notably triumphed at the Monte Carlo Rally, where Björn Waldegård secured a memorable victory in 1972. The car also performed impressively in the legendary Targa Florio and at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, regularly ranking among the best in its class under the prestigious banners of teams such as Martini Racing and Brumos Racing. A direct precursor to the iconic Carrera 2.7 RS introduced in 1973, the 911 2.4L S shared several technical innovations, including Bosch mechanical injection and optimized cooling systems, enabling Porsche to push performance boundaries even further with the legendary RS. Today, the 1972 Porsche 911 2.4L S remains an essential benchmark, perfectly embodying the Porsche spirit: a flawless blend of elegance, innovative technology, and enduring sporting success. Acquired in 2015 by its current owner, who then lived between London and France, our 911 2.4LS comes in a very elegant blue livery with a chocolate interior. It will enable its driver to take part in his first rallies or trips to the European continent. As such, it will benefit from regular servicing and a number of comfort enhancements for regular use, such as a Porsche car radio. To this day, the 1972 Porsche 911 2.4L S remains a benchmark, the perfect embodiment of the Porsche spirit: a perfect marriage of elegance, innovative technology and enduring sporting success. The car is still registered in England and can be viewed in our showroom in Paris. 1972 Porsche 911 2.4L S Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Unveiled to fanfare at the 1966 Turin Motor Show, the Maserati Ghibli combined alluring fastback bodywork by noted designer Giorgetto Giugiaro with proven performance from the Italian automaker’s 4.7-liter V-8, creating one of the most appealing grand tourers of the decade. Named for swift desert winds on the North African coast, the Ghibli’s performance more than matched its billing: the 310-horsepower engine with four carburetors, quad camshafts, and dry-sump lubrication pushed the svelte coupe to speeds beyond 164 mph. Maserati produced a total of 1,170 Ghibli Coupes from 1967 through 1973. Ordered new by Brussels Maserati dealer François Staumont on behalf of Mr. Théo Vercoutere in late 1967, a letter from Staumont to Maserati dated 28 November 1967 notes that the car was destined for display at the Brussels Motor Show. Chassis 180 was delivered on 29 December, finished in Celeste Chiaro over Blu leather, and exhibited a few weeks later. This Ghibli is believed to have had a second Belgian owner before being acquired by Peter Jansens in 1985. He retained the car for two years and then sold it to Bruun van Leeuwen, via Kroymans. Under Jansens’ care, the car is said to have had rust repairs and a respray. Mr. Leeuwen owned this Ghibli until 1999; the work he and other owners carried out is noted in a document on file. The Maserati changed hands twice more before a subsequent owner out of Germany acquired it in November 2011. He would commission Roda Classica out of Portugal to restore the car in 2016, invoices for which are on file. The work included repairing the bodywork as necessary before respraying it in factory-correct Celeste Chiaro and rebuilding the engine, gearbox, and other components. The interior had previously been refinished in Senape leather and was cleaned but otherwise left intact with its appealing patina. In November 2023, the Maserati would briefly pass to another German owner before ending up with a dealer in the Netherlands, from whom the consignor acquired it in June 2024 and had it imported to the United States later that year. With its numbers-matching 4.7-liter V-8 engine, exterior refinished in the factory-correct body color, and known history with period motor show provenance, this Ghibli appeals on many levels and will provide much enjoyment whether showing or touring. 1968 Maserati Ghibli 4.7 by Ghia RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Ordered new by Brussels Maserati dealer François Staumont on behalf of Mr. Théo Vercoutere in late 1967, a letter from Staumont to Maserati dated 28 November 1967 notes that the car was destined for display at the Brussels Motor Show. Chassis 180 was delivered on 29 December, finished in Celeste Chiaro over Blu leather, and exhibited a few weeks later. This Ghibli is believed to have had a second Belgian owner before being acquired by Peter Jansens in 1985. He retained the car for two years and then sold it to Bruun van Leeuwen, via Kroymans. Under Jansens’ care, the car is said to have had rust repairs and a respray. Mr. Leeuwen owned this Ghibli until 1999; the work he and other owners carried out is noted in a document on file. The Maserati changed hands twice more before a subsequent owner out of Germany acquired it in November 2011. He would commission Roda Classica out of Portugal to restore the car in 2016, invoices for which are on file. The work included repairing the bodywork as necessary before respraying it in factory-correct Celeste Chiaro and rebuilding the engine, gearbox, and other components. The interior had previously been refinished in Senape leather and was cleaned but otherwise left intact with its appealing patina. In November 2023, the Maserati would briefly pass to another German owner before ending up with a dealer in the Netherlands, from whom the consignor acquired it in June 2024 and had it imported to the United States later that year. With its numbers-matching 4.7-liter V-8 engine, exterior refinished in the factory-correct body color, and known history with period motor show provenance, this Ghibli appeals on many levels and will provide much enjoyment whether showing or touring.

Though the early history of this car is not currently known, this Maserati Mistral is known to have been titled and registered in Utah in 1981, signed off to the next owner in 1982, and subsequently delivered to a body and paint shop to be refinished in red. By the 1990s this Maserati had languished as unfinished project in long term storage at the auto repair establishment. Eventually the car was sold to Fantasy Junction who obtained parts to bring it to running order and offered it for sale. The current owner purchased this car in 1995 from Fantasy Junction. After his purchase, he began acquiring components and unique Mistral trim parts to begin restoration while concurrently engaging Epifani Restorations to refine the mechanicals. The owner, having restored other Italian cars with Epifani, was familiar with the process as work spanned 2000-2010 recording progress on the numerous invoices supplied by the Epifani team and included with this car. During this period, the owner held a clean California title while maintained annual license and registration with CA plate 3MNN921 spanning 1995-2013. Throughout this period the car was titled, licensed, and registered as AM109056, with the same number also referenced on the Epifani Restorations invoices. 

 In 2014, the current owner recounts that he did not receive his annual CA registration card and thus inquired with the DMV regarding the delay. The CA DMV notified the current owner that his car had been sold in 2012. Explaining that the car was still in his possession and much of a now costly restoration was nearing completion, the DMV assigned an inspector to research the situation. During the investigation, the inspector revealed that another car had been recorded with the DMV as VIN #AM109056. Upon examination of this car, the inspector was unable to locate a confirming VIN stamp on the car in order to conclusively indicate it was AM109056. There had been no reports of theft, no insurance claims with the number, and no irregularities associated with the VIN, so the investigation continued. Referencing the Maserati engine number, the engine number was subsequently correlated and confirmed to have been built at the factory as AM109054. The inspector authorized an original stamped VIN plate, verified the proper installation of the plate and submitted the car for title and registration as AM109054 in 2014. This title and registration have since been retained under the same ownership for the past eleven years. Today this Maserati, the VIN AM109054, DMV authorized VIN plate, the matching engine with factory number, and the CA title remain consistent with Maserati records now documented and verified by the CA DMV. During the period spanning 2000-2011 Epifani restorations performed extensive work on this car including engine work, machining, electrical wiring and switch repair work, brake booster, servo, clutch system work including new slave and master cylinders, new axle hubs and bearings with new brackets and fittings, new front and rear brake calipers, new brake lines, new emergency brake components, fuel system refurbishment including new fuel lines, fuel pump and regulator, electrical window motor rebuild, new wiring, new radiator hoses, new breather tubes, new coil wires, new distributor rotor, new spark plug wires and plugs, seat belts installed, dash removed for wiring repairs and gauge services, to name just a few of the many detailed items serviced, repaired, or replaced on this car. Epifani Restorations receipts total more than $50k not including the cost of specialized parts procured by the owner. Condition Overview Today, this Maserati presents as a handsome example ideal for further restoration or to enjoy as is. An excellent candidate for local shows and tours, the finishes and mechanical performance are appropriate for enthusiasts who enjoy driving and taking on various mechanical tasks as needed or gradually improving cosmetics to suit their tastes. Finished in vivid red, the paint is glossy and smooth though shows signs of age consistent with application in the 1990s. There are several small circular “fisheyes” in the paint (approx. 1/6” diameter) on the front surfaces which are visible when viewed closely. The panel fit and closures are generally very good, including the doors which open and close properly, though the rear hatch opens and latches, but the panel gaps are not symmetrical. Unlike many Mistrals, the front and rear bumpers are in excellent condition and fit properly to the front and rear of the car. The glass is in excellent condition as are the delicate chrome trim window surrounds, door handles, rocker trim, and amber side marker lights. The car sits on beautifully polished Borrani wire wheels with triple-ear knockoffs wearing a set of 205/70 VR15 Michelin tires. The dramatically sloped rear glass hatchback is a unique design feature to this model, accented by characteristically Frua side glass and sweeping body lines. 

 The interior was sensitively restored some years ago and remains well balanced including a very nicely maintained dashboard, longitudinally pleated headliner, carpeted rear storage area, and matching floor carpeting. The leather seats are comfortable with just the right give to the seat bolstering indicating gentle use over the past 30 years of current ownership. The door panels, armrests, and center console are in very good to excellent condition. The dash and gauges are in excellent condition with well-defined dial faces, correct switches and various knobs, and a finely finished wood rim steering wheel. Raising the rear glass hatch, the rear storage compartment is finished with matching tan carpet, concealing an easily accessible Borrani (millimeter sized) wheel located under the floorboard.

The engine and engine compartment are reflective of the care and detailing performed over the years with refinishing to original specifications and modest age to the various finishes. The fuel-injection unit has been removed and retained as spares with the car, while triple DCOE 151 Weber carburetors are in place with individually matched rectangular air filters. The engine displays generally correct rebuilt original components, proper hardware, factory type fasteners, and the correct satin black cam cover finish. When the car is parked, the engine drips oil on the ground which grows larger over a week or two. Although the car is operational, the shift lever requires some finesse when shifting, indicating the gearbox syncros will require attention in the future. The underside of the car is straight, and solid, though not restored. There is no evidence of structural compromise to the chassis or suspension mounting points. The exhaust system is correct and the various engine and transmission castings are in very good condition. Included with the car This Maserati comes with the original fuel-injection unit, air cleaner, other injection-based parts, a Blaupunkt radio, a spare Michelin tire and inner tube , a spare ignition tumbler and key, a Weber carburetor manual, and Maserati spare parts book. 1965 Maserati Mistral Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Alpine A310 was the French answer to the German Porsche 911: a long-distance GT with 2+2 seats and a V6 rear engine of 2.7 l and 150 hp. Based on the model of its predecessor and multiple world rally champion A110, the A310 also had a central tube chassis and a plastic body. The Alpine A310 offered here was delivered in June 1980 by the Renault dealer Garage Keigel in Frenkendorf to the first owner in the Basel area. It is one of the last of the 1st series with the iconic 3-hole rims and the filigree bumpers, but already with a 5-speed gearbox and electrically adjustable exterior mirrors. The first owner drove the car until 1987, when it was bought by a qualified car and machine mechanic, who meticulously maintained it himself over the past 36 years with every possible care. As was not uncommon in the 1980s, he installed 2 Weber triple carburetors of type 42 DCNF, an electronic ignition, a fan manifold and a 4-pipe ANSA silencer. This significantly improved performance, elasticity and revving pleasure. All original parts are present. Thanks to its low weight of less than 1,000 kg, the Alpine is a lot of fun to drive – pure driving pleasure. The metallic Arctic Ice Blue color and the impeccable Bleu de France interior suit the car perfectly. The driver’s seat has been completely reupholstered professionally. This beautiful Alpine A310 stands on classic 15-inch Gotti rims with new tires and is in absolutely original and top-maintained collector’s condition with original 99,900 km, veteran-tested. The original delivery and warranty card, the owner’s manual and the exhaust maintenance document with no gaps are present. 1980 Alpine A310, Serie 1 Lutziger Classic Cars AG If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The original Monza Allow us to pose a question. Is the 750 Monza the prettiest Ferrari of them all? We imagine you’re going to jump to the inevitable conclusion. But please, take a moment to mull it over using our photographer Tom Shaxson’s stunning images to grease the mental wheels of thought. Sure, many of its six-, eight- and 12-cylinder counterparts have been showered with more reverence over the decades. But purely on aesthetics, from that soap-bar shape and those voluptuous volumes to the perfect proportions and purposeful poise, the 750 Monza is, in our opinion, absolutely beautiful. While Scaglietti’s craftsmen hand-perfected the construction of the 750 Monza and its emblem can be found on the car’s haunches, its fundamental design was that of Enzo Ferrari’s son Dino. Yup, with the 750 Monza, Dino instigated a distinct turning point in the design of Ferrari’s sports-racing cars, which, until then, had been largely shorter, higher-waisted, less curvaceous and with tall, wide noses. Winter, 1953/1954. Having sealed both the year’s Formula 1 and World Sportscar titles, Enzo Ferrari was jubilant but wary. Resting on his laurels was not an option, though in the face of innovative new cars from Lancia, Mercedes-Benz and Maserati, it was clear the technological arms race would be especially hard-fought. Formula 1 was the arena in which his cars would face the biggest challenge, so, Il Commendatore decided instead to throw the kitchen sink at his sports-racing effort to reassert his reputation as the purveyor of the world’s most exquisite motor cars. In addition to the ‘big-banger’ 12-cylinder 375 Plus, Ferrari revealed a new four-cylinder model, the 750 Monza, for the up-to-three-litre category. Ingegnere Aurelio Lampredi was charged with developing the car, employing a new enlarged three-litre version of the 2.5-litre inline four-cylinder engine that had powered Alberto Ascari to his back-to-back Formula 1 World Championship victories in 1952 and 1953. With its screwed-in cylinder liners, unitary cylinder block and head, and enormous twin Weber carburettors, the ‘750’ engine produced a healthy 250bhp and boasted an abundance of low-end torque. Throw in a forward-thinking lightweight tubular spaceframe, a gearbox mounted at the rear for better weight distribution and, on later cars, coil-spring suspension and disc brakes, and you had a sports-racing car that was agile and powerful but sturdy and straightforward. The perfect recipe for privateer customers of Ferrari’s located in far-flung destinations around the world. “With its screwed-in cylinder liners, unitary cylinder block and head, and enormous twin Weber carburettors, the ‘750’ engine produced a healthy 250bhp and boasted an abundance of low-end torque.” The new Ferrari 750 acquired its ‘Monza’ suffix after Mike Hawthorn and Umberto Maglioli won the car’s maiden race, the Gran Premio Supercortemaggiore held at… you guessed it: Monza. Though its competitive career was short, the 750 Monza scored notable victories including the RAC Tourist Trophy at Dundrod and proved instrumental in Ferrari’s 1954 World Sportscar Championship victory. Just 33 examples were built and they were driven by the era’s most successful drivers right around the world. On a more objective level, this is a truly wonderful car to drive. From behind that wide wooden-rimmed steering wheel, cocooned in that cockpit looking out across that long flowing bonnet, the 750 Monza is a car that begs to the driven harder and harder. And that engine… No, it’s not a 12-cylinder. But as a result it has a character all of its own. It’s gruff and noisy and begs to be revved higher and higher, at which point you’re rewarded with more and more power and acceleration. The curious case of the 1955 12 Hours of Sebring On its maiden outing, chassis number 0510 crossed the finish line first in the gruelling 12 Hours of Sebring, driven by Phil Hill and Carroll Shelby The Sebring International Raceway – 13 March 1955, 10pm. A sense of confused chaos has fallen over the paddock after the two leading cars in the fifth running of the 12-hour endurance classic were both declared the winner at the chequered flag. It was the Texan oil magnate Allen Guiberson’s striking new white and blue Ferrari 750 Monza, driven by the budding all-American duo of Phil Hill and Carroll Shelby, which crossed the finish line first after an epic drive. But it was the Briggs Cunningham-entered Jaguar D-type of Mike Hawthorn and Phil Walters which was subsequently awarded the victory by the race’s timing officials after a frantic check of their lap charts. Confusion sweeps the podium celebrations at Sebring after it’s announced that Hill and Shelby were in fact placed second overall and not the winners With support from Ferrari’s East Cost concessionaire (and former Le Mans winner) Luigi Chinetti, a disgruntled Guiberson files an appeal with the American Automobile Association (A.A.A.). The paddock certainly deems Hill and Shelby the moral winners of the race and he is absolutely convinced the Jaguar had overtaken his Ferrari under yellow-flag conditions. It will take the A.A.A. almost two weeks to unravel the Guiberson and Cunningham teams’ laps charts and confirm that the D-type did indeed win the race, by the narrowest of margins: just 25 seconds. Sadly, what was a tremendous battle and a genuine fight to the finish was marred by controversy. “An annoying situation for all concerned,” reported Autosport magazine, “but it is pleasant to record that the deciding A.A.A. meeting was entirely amicable, Mr. Guiberson accepting the verdict in true sporting manner.” The outright victory in the Index of Performance Trophy provided a morsel of vindication – regardless of the result, it was an exceptionally promising maiden outing for chassis number 0510 M. Winning ways This Ferrari contested two more races in 1955, both in the hands of the future Formula 1 World Champion Phil Hill. The first was the Del Monte Trophy, the headline event for the Pebble Beach Road Races, which were staged on the narrow roads in the pine and cypress forest that surrounds Pebble Beach Lodge. The races ran from 1950 to 1956 and attracted the era’s finest racing names (from America and beyond) and a broad range of predominantly European sports cars. Phil Hill vindicated this Ferrari’s Sebring defeat with a stunning win in the Del Monte Trophy, the flagship race of the 1955 Pebble Beach Road Races Hill had won the very first Del Monte Trophy driving a Jaguar XK120 and the 1953 edition with his own Ferrari 250 MM Vignale Spyder. True to form, Hill drove a masterful race with chassis number 0510 M, winning in 1955 with aplomb. The conditions were sodden, which only made his performance on the incredibly dangerous 2.1-mile course even more impressive. After Pebble Beach, Hill was instructed by Guiberson to take the Ferrari straight to Europe along with the rising American racing star Richie Ginther. The 750 Monza was shipped from New Orleans to Genoa in Italy, the idea being that Hill and Ginther would barnstorm the remainder of the European racing season. Unfortunately, the 1955 Le Mans disaster had put a halt on all motorsport activity and the only European track time the American pair were granted with chassis number 0510 M was at the Aerautodromo in Modena. After a health check at the Ferrari factory, the 750 Monza was returned to Texas. It was Phil Hill’s third – and most impressive – Del Monte Trophy victory Guiberson sold the Ferrari to the brothers Hall – older ‘Dick’ and younger ‘Jim’. Founder of the decorated Chaparral Cars equipe, Jim Hall went on to pioneer a raft of technological motorsport innovations, including ground-effect tunnels, adjustable aerodynamic devices, side-mounted radiators and composite monocoque chassis’. Suffice to say his influence is still very much felt in motorsport today. An inductee to the International Motorsport Hall of Fame, Hall boasts a competition résumé that lists successes in virtually every American racing discipline or series. The Halls had gone to Guiberson’s warehouse in Dallas to look at a Porsche Spyder. But when they discovered the nearby 750 Monza was also available, they soon forgot about the Porsche. Jim had witnessed Phil Hill’s wet-weather masterclass at the Pebble Beach Road Races and promptly persuaded his older brother to buy chassis number 0510 M (Jim was still a student, while Dick had assumed control of the family oil business following the tragic death of their parents in an aircraft accident). At the Pebble Beach Road Races in 1956, Carroll Shelby picked up right where Phil Hill left off, winning the race for the second time with chassis number 0510 M The Halls promptly employed the services of fellow Texan Carroll Shelby, who had by now firmly established himself as a driving force to be reckoned with on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. Incidentally, the Halls had also helped finance the opening of Carroll Shelby Sport Cars Inc. in Dallas, a major concessionaire of exotic European motor cars including Rolls-Royces. Shelby also knew the 750 Monza inside and out having partnered with Phil Hill at Sebring the previous year. That paid dividends at the first event of 1956 for this Ferrari: the Del Monte Trophy. Shelby carried on right where Phil Hill left off, winning the prestigious race in decisive fashion. Of the four subsequent events he contested with chassis number 0510 M in 1956, Shelby accrued three outright race victories and one second-placed position. It’s also worth noting that Jim Hall took his very first victory as a racing driver with this Ferrari. “In this instance, the success Jim Hall enjoyed as custodian of chassis number 0510 M pales in comparison to the fact he kept the car for almost six decades.” Prior to the 1957 season, this 750 Monza was returned once again to the Ferrari factory in Maranello to have its engine serviced, a full-width windscreen and passenger door added as per the new racing regulations and to be refinished in red. For 1957, driving duties were shared between Jim Hall, who’d joined Carroll Shelby Sport Cars Inc., and Jim Roberts, the dealership’s chief salesman. The following year, Jim Hall advertises chassis number 0510 M for sale. Crucially, he does not find a buyer… The Chaparral years In this instance, the success Jim Hall enjoyed as custodian of chassis number 0510 M pales in comparison to the fact he kept the car for almost six decades. After establishing Chaparral Cars in 1963, Hall stored this Ferrari at his equipe’s facility in Midland, Texas. In 1993, the decision was taken to lightly restore the 750 Monza ahead of a planned celebration of Carroll Shelby’s racing career at the Monterey Historic Automobile Races. The project was entrusted to Troy Rogers, the former chief mechanic at Chaparral Cars, and involved returning the car to its original white and blue livery. Following its light restoration and subsequent appearance at Laguna Seca, chassis number 0510 M was exercised occasionally on Hall’s test-track. Crucially, prior to both Phil Hill and Carroll Shelby passing away in 2008 and 2012, respectively, Hall received letters from both detailing their memories of this 750 Monza. Shelby’s is especially entertaining, particularly his recollection of the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1955. “I drove that race with my arm in a cast,” he wrote. “Hal Fenner would go to the races with me and change it to a fiberglass cast and then change it back to a plaster cast after the race so my doctors wouldn't know!” Hall finally parted with chassis number 0510 M in 2016 after 57 years of ownership. He was the only period 1950s Ferrari 750 Monza owner to still retain their car. A new dawn The third – and current – custodians of this Ferrari are Patrick Ottis and his wife Carolyn. The owner of the revered US-based Enzo-era Ferrari engine and mechanical restoration workshop, Patrick Ottis holds the honour of being the chief Ferrari judge at the world-famous Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Who better, then, to orchestrate the restoration of chassis number 0510 M with a view to using and sharing the car at the wealth of prestigious historic motoring events across the world for which such a car is highly eligible. Ottis assembled a crack team of trusted specialists and spent two years taking the car back to a bare chassis to rebuild it to the exacting specification of Phil Hill’s 1955 Pebble Beach Road Races entry. The two-year project put just as much emphasis on research as it did restoration itself – over 500 period photos were sourced to ensure maximum accuracy (they’re all in the enormous history file that accompanies the car). Given the remarkably original condition of chassis number 0510 M throughout, the restoration was undertaken with the utmost sympathy for that originality. As such, period techniques were employed, which, though not necessarily time or cost efficient, helped retain the distinct character of the car. You need only glance at the brush marks and slight wave to the finish of the original Scaglietti coachwork to see that. It's important to note that, with a view to preservation in historic competition, Ottis sourced a second additional period 750 Monza engine, numbered 0538 MD, complete with its rare original Weber carburettors. This engine, which ironically also competed in North America in the mid- to late-1950s, is included in the sale of this 750 Monza, chassis number 0510 M. Upon completion, chassis number 0510 M was raced by Patrick Ottis’ son Tazio at the 2019 Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion at Laguna Seca. The very next day, this 750 Monza was entered in the world-famous Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Contesting the fiercely competitive ‘M-2’ class for Ferrari Competition Cars, the car was scrutinised by the discerning panel of judges. They were suitably impressed – it was awarded the coveted ‘Best in Class’ trophy. For the Ottis family, that could have been mission complete. But they have spent the following years capitalising on this special Ferrari’s extraordinary eligibility, finally fulfilling chassis number 0510 M’s thwarted 1955 plan to compete in Europe. The Goodwood Revival, Grand Prix de Monaco Historique and Le Mans Classic. It’s etched them all into its proverbial bedpost. How to summarise the appeal of a collector car with so many strings to its bow? The preserve of the most learned and discerning of Ferrari disciples, the 750 Monza is incredibly rare, drop-dead gorgeous, gruntier than its sultry and diminutive shape would lead you to believe and, perhaps most importantly, eligible. So eligible, in fact, that there are very few historic motoring events on the planet – static or dynamic – whose organisers would not welcome such a car with open arms. But even in the rarefied world of four-cylinder 1950s Ferraris such as the 750 Monza, there is still a pecking order and are still cars that distinguish themselves from their elusive counterparts. We’ve no doubt chassis number 0510 M is one of the very best examples extant. “This Ferrari 750 Monza is so eligible that there are very few historic motoring events on the planet – static or dynamic – whose organisers would not welcome such a car with open arms.” Of course, this particular 750 Monza’s successful US period competition history in the hands of three of America’s most decorated motorsport exports, Phil Hill, Carroll Shelby and Jim Hall, is a real treat. But its this Ferrari’s subsequent sheltered story in the custody of Jim Hall which really makes it stand out, both from provenance and conditions perspectives. Patrick Ottis’ fastidious yet mindful restoration served to honour the care Hall bestowed upon his Ferrari for over five decades. And, of course, preserve it for its exciting future chapter – chapters you could help to write. Your interest will no doubt be piqued when we tell you that this 750 Monza has already been accepted into the 2026 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Believe us when we say opportunities such as chassis number 0510 M are very few and far between. 1955 Ferrari 750 Monza Girardo & Co.

We imagine you’re going to jump to the inevitable conclusion. But please, take a moment to mull it over using our photographer Tom Shaxson’s stunning images to grease the mental wheels of thought. Sure, many of its six-, eight- and 12-cylinder counterparts have been showered with more reverence over the decades. But purely on aesthetics, from that soap-bar shape and those voluptuous volumes to the perfect proportions and purposeful poise, the 750 Monza is, in our opinion, absolutely beautiful. While Scaglietti’s craftsmen hand-perfected the construction of the 750 Monza and its emblem can be found on the car’s haunches, its fundamental design was that of Enzo Ferrari’s son Dino. Yup, with the 750 Monza, Dino instigated a distinct turning point in the design of Ferrari’s sports-racing cars, which, until then, had been largely shorter, higher-waisted, less curvaceous and with tall, wide noses.

We’ve no doubt chassis number 0510 M is one of the very best examples extant. “This Ferrari 750 Monza is so eligible that there are very few historic motoring events on the planet – static or dynamic – whose organisers would not welcome such a car with open arms.” Of course, this particular 750 Monza’s successful US period competition history in the hands of three of America’s most decorated motorsport exports, Phil Hill, Carroll Shelby and Jim Hall, is a real treat. But its this Ferrari’s subsequent sheltered story in the custody of Jim Hall which really makes it stand out, both from provenance and conditions perspectives. Patrick Ottis’ fastidious yet mindful restoration served to honour the care Hall bestowed upon his Ferrari for over five decades. And, of course, preserve it for its exciting future chapter – chapters you could help to write. Your interest will no doubt be piqued when we tell you that this 750 Monza has already been accepted into the 2026 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Believe us when we say opportunities such as chassis number 0510 M are very few and far between. Other Cars from Girardo & Co.

History of Beck and the 904 Carrera GTS The history of Beck cars dates back to their extensive development of vintage era tribute cars focused on creating vehicles that were easily accessible to a wide range of enthusiasts unable to acquire one of the rare original examples. Known for their 550 and 356 models, Chuck Beck initiated the build process for the 904 with careful engineering considerations, releasing the 904 GTS on a custom order basis with production features including a TIG and spot welded tubular stainless-steel chassis, folded stainless sheet floor, and boxed ladder main frame rails. For the suspension, Beck developed Chevron B-16 inspired independent front and rear coil-over suspension (rear 4-link with parallel trailing arm), CNC billet aluminum uprights, and installed manual rack and pinion steering. The hand laid fiberglass body was bonded to the frame for added structural rigidity and an integral roll bar with optional door bars was integrated into the interior. The prototype GTS was tested at Road Atlanta running a 3.6-liter engine. Though these cars were offered with a range of engine options including Subaru and VW based flat 4 engines, each owner could specify engine and transmission preferences for their final build. Of particular note, a “wide body” variant was offered which featured an additional 3” of rear fender flare, allowing for the added tire width necessary to maintain adhesion on models outfitted with higher output engines. History of this Carrera GTS According to the current owner, this example is one of the first 904 models built and one of the rare wide body variants offered. The original commissioning build was performed by Beck. This example is believed to be one of the earliest 904 GTS models built and quite possibly the first wide body 904 constructed. Built with a dry sump 3.8-liter Porsche 993 twin-plug engine, fuel-injection, and 5-speed 915 Porsche transaxle, this wide body 904 was completed with track day specifications and used minimally by the first owner for a few track-day events and occasional street use. Current Condition Today this Beck 904 Carrera GTS presents as a professionally finished car with mechanical integrity and exterior cosmetics consistent with minimal use since it was completed. The silver paint has been smoothly applied over the hand laid fiberglass body panels which exhibit good fit and finish throughout the iconic 904 low-profile body lines. The additionally widened rear fender flares (exclusive to the wide body design) have been formed to accommodate the massive rear wheels yet still match the smaller front flares giving the car an impressive stance. The glass windshield, clear plastic sliding side panes, and plexiglass rear window are all in excellent condition. A set of matching staggered width Fuchs style three-piece wheels with Toyo Proxes R888 215/40ZR17 front and 315/35 40ZR17 rear race tires with aluminum Brembo red finished calipers perched over four-wheel disc brakes. Competition touches include clear plexiglass covered headlights, aluminum engine vent screen, dual chrome racing mirrors, and a set of Hella yellow lens fog lamps. The cockpit is very well laid out finished with black vinyl door trim, felt-lined rear bulkhead, and integrated rollbar. The dashboard features an instrument pod outfitted with three large-dial Porsche VDO black and green gauges including an 8k tachometer, 180 mph speedometer, and multi-gauge cluster. The dash continues across the passenger area with a series of labeled switches and contemporary VDO small dial gauges. A set of black vinyl seats are outfitted with Crow racing harnesses. A padded quick release steering wheel features a Porsche center crest and mounts cleverly in reverse configuration for added driver arm length. The interior delivers a purposeful no-frills, ready for action presentation, in keeping with the original commissioned build for a capable track day car. Raising the rear section of the car, the simplicity and effectiveness of the sophisticated Chevron B-16 inspired independent suspension, stainless-steel tubular frame, and twin-plug 993 3.8-liter engine create a very impressive visual statement. The engine is outfitted with a dry sump oil system using an aluminum oil tank and remote oil filter. The engine is mated to a 5-speed 915 Porsche transaxle and the 12-volt system uses an Optima battery and alternator. The front is accessible via a hinged hood which reveals an aluminum foam-filled fuel cell and fluid reservoirs. The underside reveals further details of the lightweight construction, independent coil-over A-arm suspension, and componentry consistent with the build performed by Chuck Beck. This Beck 904 Carrera GTS presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a professionally built and properly prepared example crafted by the premier builder of the iconic 904 in tribute to the original configuration. Although this car has been formerly prepared for track day use, we highly recommend a professional shop with racing car prep history inspect this car and properly prepare it before use in a competition setting. 1973 Porsche Beck 904 Carrera GTS replica Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
