  • 1968-jaguar-e-type-42

    This superb Jaguar E-type was built during the final year of Series 1 production, and hasrecently benefitted from a full restoration in which the painstaking attention to detail even extended to using bolts with period-correct markings. Completed at the Browns Lane factory on 26 January 1968, chassis number 1E 16873 was a left-hand-drive Roadster that was dispatched to Jaguar Cars, New York, on 12 February. It was finished in Opalescent Silver Grey with a red interior and a black hood. By 1972, the E-type was owned by John Kenneth Long, who lived in Redondo Beach, California. The history file includes a 1974 invoice that was issued by Parnelli Jones Firestone on Hawthorne Boulevard in Torrance, for the car’s smog certificate. It seems that Long then moved to Parker, Colorado, and took the Jaguar with him. Its current UK-based owner bought it from a dealer in Colorado, and a windscreen sticker suggested that it had last been taxed in 1980-81. He recalled that the car was ‘quite dishevelled’ but looked to be ‘remarkably free from rust’, and he duly had it shipped to the UK in October 2011. A talented engineer, he then embarked on a restoration that eventually returned the E-type to the road in August 2017. While he took care of the mechanical side of things, he carefully selected a number of specialists for other elements of the rebuild. The bodywork, for example, was delegated to Pitt Lane Restorations in Winchester, while BAS International made and fitted the interior trim. A new mohair soft-top was also fitted, a tonneau cover was made, and the floors were given a layer of heat- and sound-proof material – as were the insides of the doors. The engine was fully rebuilt, and was later fine-tuned by Nutts Performance Classics once it was back in the car. The standard four-speed gearbox was replaced by a T5 five-speed manual – a popular E-type modification that makes high-speed running much more comfortable. The differential was also rebuilt with a UK-spec 3.07:1 final drive, and uprated Coopercraft brake calipers were fitted front and rear. Since being completed, this beautiful Jaguar E-type has completed the Fougeres Rally through Normandy and Brittany, and is perfect for classic touring thanks to its well-chosen selection of upgrades. Now offered for sale in its original colour scheme, and having been converted to right-hand drive, it’s a lovely example of the highly coveted Series 1 Roadster. 1968 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 The Classic Motor Hub If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1965-porsche-914

    This 1965 Porsche 911 is a very interesting example that has been modified for race use over the years. The car is currently finished in black over a red base - although the original color was Dolphin Gray- with red paint showing through on the interior and under the hood and rear decklid. The paint shows significant patina around the car, including some peeled paint in areas and the remnants of old racing numbers ghosted on the front bonnet. In Europe, there is a robust racing series for these early 911s, and this car is a prime candidate for that. This example was set up by the head of PCA’s racing division, so it drives spectacularly and is currently set up for street use. Although this car has been extensively modified for track use, it has been lovingly cared for over the years and retains nearly all of the original records back to new, as well as the 1965 record books. Sitting on a set of chrome Fuchs 5-spoke wheels, it comes with two pairs of spare wheels, including the original steel wheels that have been powder-coated silver. The interior is largely stripped out but does retain some of the classic early 911 hallmarks. The carpet has been entirely removed and the floor is simply red painted metal, but the door cards and rear quarter panels remain in the original arrangement. The Sparco race seats that were in the car have been replaced by the original-style low-back bucket seats which are great for street use and make the car simple to get in and out of. Porsche fans will note the original wood dashboard has been retained as have the 5-gauge cluster with the classic green text on a black background. When you get into the driver’s seat, you are met with a 3-spoke MOMO steering wheel with an Alcantara rim, and the peddles have been replaced with drilled aluminum racing pedals that offer great grip when driving. Sitting in the rear of the car is a 2.0-liter flat-6 that was thoroughly serviced by Porsche specialist Jerry Woods. The engine breathes through a pair of triple-choke PMO carburetors and an MSD ignition is fitted for better spark control. This engine is not the original unit to the car but instead a correct replacement from a 1966 911. The original Type 901 gearbox with its dogleg first gear has been swapped out in favor of a more easily serviceable and far nicer to use 915 gearbox that has a short shift kit and a Wevo shifter in the car. When you open the front bonnet, you notice an ATL competition fuel cell that was FIA-certified in 1999. As the car weighs less than 1,900 lbs, the 2.0-liter engine makes it feel remarkably quick, and the properly set up suspension allows you to carry tremendous speed through corners. These early Porsche 911s are special cars with the short wheelbase only in production until 1969. As the value of early cars continues to rise, the prospect of buying one to turn into a race car is largely unrealistic, which makes buying an already converted example particularly appealing for vintage competition use. Regardless of whether or not you plan to take this car to the track or use it as a fast road car on the weekends, nothing compares to the nimble chassis, revvy small-displacement flat-6, and a sub-1900 lb curb weight from behind the wheel. 1965 Porsche 911 ISSIMI, Inc If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1967-iso-grifo-gl-series-i-by-bertone

    Renzo Rivolta, the founder of Iso S.p.A. turned to the brilliant Italian engineer Giotto Bizzarrini when he was seeking to develop the successor to the Rivolta IR 300. In 1963, Bizzarrini designed the mechanicals for the Iso A3/L, with the body designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro at Bertone. The prototype, called the Grifo A3/L was exhibited by Bertone at the Turin Motor Show that year. Production started in 1965, however, the split between Rivolta and Bizzarrini was ever growing and after just 22 Grifo A3/Ls were built, the duo parted ways. Iso continued to produce the car as the Iso Grifo GL, while Bizzarrini sold cars built by Piero Drogo under his own name as the A3/C. Manufactured on 6 June 1966, this Iso Grifo GL was one of the first 50 cars that were hand-built at Bertone’s workshop in Turin—the remainder of production shifted later to Iso’s own factory in Bresso, Milan. The Giorgetto Giugiaro-designed body was coated in Rosso Monza and trimmed with a Nero leather interior. Under the bonnet, the factory installed a Chevrolet 340 cubic-inch (5.6-litre) V-8 engine—a special request on behalf of the supplying dealership, Malcolm Konner Chevrolet of Paramus, New Jersey. Mr Konner ordered this Iso specifically for his wife and when the vehicle arrived in 1967, Mrs Konner covered approximately 400 miles before deciding the Iso was not to her taste. The car was returned to the Konner Chevrolet showroom, where it would sit for the next 12 months. Martin Schorr, the then editor of CARS magazine back in 1969, had recently test driven a friend’s Iso Grifo and was taken by the car’s sharp Bertone styling and Bizzarrini engineering prowess. To Schorr, it was a perfect union of what the Italian and American automotive industry had to offer. Telephoning Malcolm Konner Chevrolet in the early spring of 1969, he was pleasantly surprised to hear that the dealership had one Iso Grifo in stock: an unregistered car that had been seldom driven by the owner’s wife. Taking a trip to Paramus in New Jersey, Schorr shook hands and agreed to pay $7,500 for chassis number GL 630047. The manufacturer’s statement of origin was issued on 28 March 1969, Schorr’s birthday. Schorr used the Iso as his daily driver but felt that, in the chaos of New York City traffic, the Iso could benefit from improved low-end torque. Luckily, close friend and Corvette Chief Engineer Zora Arkus-Duntov called Schorr in the autumn of 1969 to tell him that the new 370 horsepower LT1 V-8 was about to be released and offered to send Schorr a brand-new unit for “evaluation” purposes. Schorr swiftly dispatched his new LT1 and the Grifo down to Motion Performance. The outfit would not just swap the engines, but had Joel Rosen and Dennis Ferrara (then the NHRA champion) carry out the installation. Ferrara ported and polished the cylinder heads, installed competition valves, a mild hydraulic lifter cam, Iso-specific accessories, and a lower flow rate carburettor. This would be the only Iso to receive a Baldwin-Motion Performance conversion directly at its premises. With the tuned LT1 now in place, over the next 40 years Schorr would sparingly use the Iso from his home in Sarasota, Florida. He decided to repaint the car in maroon pearl in 1972 and often exhibited the car at shows and was happy to have it featured in multiple magazine articles. After 43 years, Schorr decided to part ways with his beloved Iso. The car was sold and then exported to the United Kingdom in 2013, where it has remained with the consigning owner ever since. Following its arrival in the UK, the vendor commissioned an 18-month mechanical and cosmetic restoration carried out by the experts at Barkaways of Kent. In a process lasting from June 2014 through to October 2016 and totalling more than £120,000, the car was returned to its factory-correct colour scheme of Rosso Monza over a Nero leather interior while the all-important Motion-Performance LT1 V-8 engine was retained. Testament to the quality of the work completed, the Iso was swiftly awarded “Most Sensitive Restoration” at the 2016 Salon Privé Concours. Arguably one of the most significant early-production, hand-built Iso Grifo’s in existence, chassis number GL 630047 benefits from having just two owners since 1969, a fascinating backstory, and presents wonderfully today. 1967 Iso Grifo GL Series I by Bertone RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1974-lancia-beta-group-4

    Following Fiat’s acquisition of Lancia in 1969, the Agnelli-owned manufacturer felt the rallying success of the Lancia Stratos was not aiding conventional car sales. As a result of this and an aging Fulvia HF Coupé, the Lancia Beta Coupé was launched in June 1973. Looking to create a stir with a consumer-oriented coupé, Lancia Works prepared around a dozen early production 1.8-litre coupés to compete in Group 3, taking place from February to April 1974, when on the 12th of that month, the Beta was homologated for Group 3. Until the Sanremo Rally on 2 October 1974 (where a day earlier the Beta was finally homologated in Group 4), Lancia Beta Coupés prepared by Lancia Works were fielded in multiple Italian rally events across the country. Each result contributed towards the commonly unknown 1974 Lancia Beta Coupé Championship. Following Sanremo, Group 3 Betas were converted to Group 4 specification, in order to increase competitiveness. First registered on 28 January 1974, this Beta Coupé was equipped with a 1,756 cc engine. The Estratto Cronologico shows that in February, the first owner was Lancia S.p.A., who held onto the car until 12 April, likely when they were modifying the vehicle to Group 3 specifications, and just before official FIA homologation. Sold to the first owner, a Miss Angela Frumento in Genova, a relative of Mr. Tabaton, the founder and president of Scuderia Grifone. Registered on Torino plates with the number TO K81158, chassis 1050 was liveried in white, with the bonnet sporting two large blue stripes and “H F” letters. In the 1974 season, Bruno Ferraris and Daniele Cianci were paired together as drivers and drove the car on no less than nine occasions. Debuting on 29 June at the Rally Alpi Orientali, with race number 28, the duo finished 34th overall and 6th in class. For Sanremo, they still ran in Group 3, and the pair maintained a 4th in class position until the 8th stage, when they suffered from differential failure. Due to the nature of these regional rallies and the sheer volume of them, information on the results of each event is scarce. However, in the Lancia Beta Coupé Championship, Bruno Ferraris finished 5th in the Drivers’ Championship. Scuderia Grifone took the decision to uprate chassis 1050 to Group 4 specifications for the 1975 season, the most distinguishing factor being the wide plastic wheel arch trims, and a Group 4 dashboard (components that the car still sports to this day). Giuseppe "Pippo" De Stefano was Grifone’s driver of choice for 1975, save for Sanremo and the Rally Piacentine, where Ferraris and Cianci returned. In 1976, Guide del Prete drove chassis 1050 alongside Cianci, in four known events, with the Rally Targa d’Oro their best result, coming in at 14th overall. Following this season, it marked the end of this Beta’s time with Scuderia Grifone, who sold the car to Garage Centrale, owned by Roberto Beretta. The Estratto notes it entered his name on 3 April 1978, with the registration CO 532967—which the car today still retains. On 21 July that year, Beretta entered and raced at the Rally Piacentine, sporting race number 59, the car bore an interesting livery of blue with red highlights under the Jolly Club banner. By 31 March 1979 at the Rally Città di Modena, chassis 1050 now had black bodywork, with blue, red, and white sweeping side stripes as well as a lower white band starting at the front diffuser and carrying down along the wheel arches, skirts, and around the rear of the car. Now under the Beretta-Lucco Team, Beretta drove on nearly all occasions with his partner Francesca Pozzi—who at Modena finished 36th overall and 4th in Class. Beretta fielded chassis 1050 in the 1979 and 1980 seasons, before retiring the car and driving a Montecarlo. A detailed race chart is available to view online, and on file are various photographs of chassis 1050 at rallies from 1974 until 1980. Beretta retained the car (and later under his co-driver’s name—Laura Julita) until 1994 when it was sold to Mr. Vallauri of Borgo San Dalmazzo. Changing hands again in 1995 and 1997, this Beta Coupé then entered storage as part of a large collection until 2016, when the previous owner acquired this vehicle from RM Sotheby’s Duemila Route sale. Remaining in Roberto Beretta’s care for 17 years preserved this Group 4 Lancia Beta Coupé. Still wearing Beretta-Lecco livery, the interior takes onlookers back to rallying in the 1970s. The dashboard is of Lancia Works origin and matches what is pictured on the 1974 Group 4 FIA homologation papers. Instructed by a previous owner, the masterful Italian rally preparation expert Facetti rebuilt the engine, while another workshop restored the suspension and running gear of this car; masterfully blending preservation with the ability to compete in historic rallying events. The car was acquired by the current owner in 2024 at RM Sotheby’s Monaco auction with the intention of returning it to its competitive roots. As such, Claudio Orlandini’s Autoelite in Maranello was commissioned to perform a full engine rebuild and restoration of the car’s electrical system in advance of the car’s participation in the 2024 Modena Centro Ore. This also included ordering three new sets of Pirelli Classic tyres, including two sets of slicks and one set of wet weather tyres and a handful of spares for the event. Autoeliete also sent a team of mechanics to accompany the owner on the event, ensuring that the car performed faultlessly. After the event, the car was refurbished by Autoelete and remains ready for the next event. Finally, not only is the car fitted today with modern seats and seat belts up to date with current FIA standards, but it also retains the original, period-correct alternatives, making the car perfect for either show or event use. Further to the Modena Centro Ore, the Beta remains eligible for a number of other events, including the FIA Historic Rally Championship and Tour Auto. As a time-warp example, this Group 4 Lancia Beta Coupé is one of the earliest examples prepared by Lancia Works and has a fascinating competition history. Having now proven itself both in period and at vintage rallying events, this is an exciting opportunity for rallying enthusiasts to acquire a true gem from 1970s Group 4 rallying heritage. 1974 Lancia Beta Group 4 RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright Following Fiat’s acquisition of Lancia in 1969, the Agnelli-owned manufacturer felt the rallying success of the Lancia Stratos was not aiding conventional car sales. As a result of this and an aging Fulvia HF Coupé, the Lancia Beta Coupé was launched in June 1973. Looking to create a stir with a consumer-oriented coupé, Lancia Works prepared around a dozen early production 1.8-litre coupés to compete in Group 3, taking place from February to April 1974, when on the 12th of that month, the Beta was homologated for Group 3. Until the Sanremo Rally on 2 October 1974 (where a day earlier the Beta was finally homologated in Group 4), Lancia Beta Coupés prepared by Lancia Works were fielded in multiple Italian rally events across the country. Each result contributed towards the commonly unknown 1974 Lancia Beta Coupé Championship. Following Sanremo, Group 3 Betas were converted to Group 4 specification, in order to increase competitiveness. First registered on 28 January 1974, this Beta Coupé was equipped with a 1,756 cc engine. The Estratto Cronologico shows that in February, the first owner was Lancia S.p.A., who held onto the car until 12 April, likely when they were modifying the vehicle to Group 3 specifications, and just before official FIA homologation. Sold to the first owner, a Miss Angela Frumento in Genova, a relative of Mr. Tabaton, the founder and president of Scuderia Grifone. Registered on Torino plates with the number TO K81158, chassis 1050 was liveried in white, with the bonnet sporting two large blue stripes and “H F” letters. In the 1974 season, Bruno Ferraris and Daniele Cianci were paired together as drivers and drove the car on no less than nine occasions. Debuting on 29 June at the Rally Alpi Orientali, with race number 28, the duo finished 34th overall and 6th in class. For Sanremo, they still ran in Group 3, and the pair maintained a 4th in class position until the 8th stage, when they suffered from differential failure. Due to the nature of these regional rallies and the sheer volume of them, information on the results of each event is scarce. However, in the Lancia Beta Coupé Championship, Bruno Ferraris finished 5th in the Drivers’ Championship. Scuderia Grifone took the decision to uprate chassis 1050 to Group 4 specifications for the 1975 season, the most distinguishing factor being the wide plastic wheel arch trims, and a Group 4 dashboard (components that the car still sports to this day). Giuseppe "Pippo" De Stefano was Grifone’s driver of choice for 1975, save for Sanremo and the Rally Piacentine, where Ferraris and Cianci returned.

  • 1957-bmw-507

    From 1956 to 1959, a total of 252 BMW 507s were produced. BMW presented the Type 507 at the IAA 1955. With a price of almost DM 30,000, the car was almost as expensive as a Mercedes 300 SL, which was only offered as a roadster from 1957. This meant that it was only affordable for extremely well-heeled customers, which also led to an extremely low production figure of just 252 vehicles. The car was designed by industrial designer Albrecht Graf Goertz. The body was made of aluminium. Today, the 507 is considered a design icon and is a highly sought-after collector’s item. For sale is an exceptionally well-preserved BMW 507 project with an almost untouched body. According to available documents, the car was produced in 1957 and delivered in Venezuela in 1958. In the early 80s, the car arrived in Miami. At the end of the 80s, Jose C. Harth acquired the car and brought it back to Venezuela, where it became part of his outstanding collection. This is a unique opportunity to complete an absolutely exceptional vehicle, which is also Mille-Miglia-capable due to its early year of construction. 1957 BMW 507 Thiesen Hamburg GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1974-lamborghini-espada

    This Series III Espada on offer, Chassis #9596, is believed to be a one owner example based upon the circumstances of our acquisition and the 1 owner designation on the NJ title we received. While exact early history remains unknown and there are unfortunately no documents to support this example’s history. We believe this Espada was likely delivered by Grossmans Motorcar Corp of Nyack, NY when new. Later, we assume around the late 1980’s or early 1990’s the car was offered for sale at Ed Jurst’s Vintage Car Store, also in Nyack, NY. It is believed that the vehicle never sold and that the window sticker remained in the glove box with the car ever since. As the mileage noted on the window sticker of 34,521 remains on the odometer today. Another highlight is that this example is finished in its factory color scheme of Arancio over beige, a rare and desirable specification. Alas, we must press upon the reality that this example is a project and is being sold intended for restoration. It requires at minimum a comprehensive mechanical servicing or possibly a total rebuild to be a road worthy driver once more. Alternatively this example remains a very solid base for a total restoration both mechanically and cosmetically. Though it would be wise to preserve the wonderful original interior as on the inside this is a genuine untouched example with what we believe to be only 34,521 miles from new. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a genuine low mileage Series III Espada in a highly desirable specification and worthy of a restoration. Included in the same are a spare, jack, tools, The Vintage Car Store window sticker, and keys. 1974 Lamborghini Espada LBI Limited If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1956-ferrari-500-tr

    By the time that the 500 Testa Rossa was introduced in 1956, it had been preceded by a number of Ferrari four cylinder models, that had established the Ferrari four cylinder engine as a force to be reckoned with on the world stage. The story had started in 1952 with the 500 F2 Monoposto, in which Alberto Ascari won the Drivers’ World Championship, doing the same thing again in 1953 in the same type of car. This twin overhead camshaft four-cylinder engine was first used in a sports racing Ferrari in 1953, in a 625 TF model, then in different capacity forms in 500 Mondials, 750, 857 and 860 Monzas, which in turn led to the 500 Testa Rossa in 1956, the subject of this story, the 625 LM derivatives, and then ultimately the four-cylinder Ferrari engine’s final iteration in the 500 TRC derivative in 1957. The “500” designation in the model title referred to the approximate swept volume of a single cylinder in cubic centimetres, thus the total cubic capacity was 2 litres, and the “TR” was for Testa Rossa, due to the red-painted cylinder head and camshaft covers. The model was essentially built as a customer car, primarily to compete for the 2-litre class race honours, whilst the company’s larger capacity V12 models vied for overall race wins. For this reason, the 500 TR was kept relatively simple. It featured the, by then, well-proven and robust four-cylinder power plant, with factory type number 131, designed by Aurelio Lampredi. As with all other Ferrari four-cylinder engines, it featured screw into the head cylinder liners, to obviate cylinder head gasket problems with, for the time, relatively high compression ratios. The over square 2-litre power unit had a bore and stroke of 90mm x 78mm, providing an actual total displacement of 1984.86cc, with a compression ratio of 8.5:1. The crankshaft ran in five main bearings, with the twin overhead camshafts driven by a train of gears also driving the oil pumps, water pump, distributors and dynamo. It featured the narrow 58deg angle two valves per cylinder head as used on the original 500 F2 design in 1951, whereas series II 500 Mondial and 750 Monza models had used a wider 85deg cylinder head. The narrower angle head was deemed to provide greater combustion efficiency. The induction and ignition systems comprised of a pair of side draught Weber 40 DCOA 3 carburettors fed by a mechanical pump with a back-up electric pump, and twin spark plug per cylinder ignition via a pair of timing cover-mounted distributors. Lubrication was dry sump with gear-driven pressure and scavenge pumps, supplied from a 15 litre oil tank. The claimed power output was 180bhp at 7000rpm, and this was fed from the engine via a twin-disc clutch, through a four-speed + reverse type 518/431 gearbox, incorporating Porsche synchromesh rings, and a propeller shaft to the rigid rear axle with a pawl pattern limited-slip differential, type number 518. A choice of four rear axle ratios were offered in the sales brochure, 7/34, 8/34, 8/32 and 9/34, which from the lowest to the highest gave claimed top speeds at 7000rpm of 119mph, 137mph, 145mph and 153mph. However, the “Scheda di Omologazione” (Homologation Schedule) lists seven optional axle ratios, which in that document range from 6/34 to 9/34. The chassis was constructed to the regular Ferrari practice of the period, with a pair of large bore oval longitudinal steel tubes and substantial lateral cross bracing, with factory type reference number 518. It had a wheelbase of 2250mm, a front track of 1308mm, a rear track of 1250mm, and a 120 litre fuel tank, with the whole car having a dry weight around 680kgs. Suspension was independent at the front via coil springs and Houdaille lever type shock absorbers with an anti-roll bar, whilst the rear featured coil springs again with Houdaille lever-type shock absorbers and twin radius rods to the axle. The braking system was hydraulic, with twin master cylinders and drum brakes all round, with a mechanically operated handbrake to the rear wheels, whilst the road wheels listed in the “Scheda di Omologazione” were either 5.00 x 15” or 5.00 x 16” wire wheels on Rudge hubs, with 5.50” wide tyres at the front and 6.00” at the rear, with an option of a metric size 165 x 400 front and rear. All cars in the series were fitted with an open spider aluminium body, which was designed and built by Scaglietti in Modena. Chassis 0614 MDTR was, by chassis number sequence the fifth of nineteen examples produced originally fitted with 2-litre Tipo 131 engines. All cars in the series, apart from 0620 MDTR, were right-hand drive, and 0614 MDTR was the first example to be delivered new to the USA. Upon its arrival in the USA, its first appointment was an appearance at the 1956 New York Motor Show, along with a 410 Superamerica Coupé and a 250 GT Boano Cabriolet. There is a note on the factory build sheet chassis page for 0614 MDTR confirming this - “inviato al salone di New York” (sent to New York Show). From contemporary reports the 500 TR was one of the stars of the show, attracting great attention from attendees. One of these was a renowned New York fashion photographer, socialite and amateur race driver, William Helburn, who wanted to buy it. The story unfolds that Chinetti told him that it was reserved for another customer, this being John Edgar, who had secured the services of Carroll Shelby to drive the car for him at a race meeting at Brynfan Tyddyn. Chinetti badly wanted Carroll Shelby to drive one of his cars, as he was one of the hot names in American racing at the time, and there was kudos to be had. However, Helburn was very persistent in his endeavours to purchase the car, and eventually Chinetti sold it to him on the understanding that it would need to be fully checked over before he could take delivery. The show had been held in the April, and the race wasn’t until late July, so Helburn frequently walked past Chinetti’s showroom wondering why 'his' car was still sitting there and he couldn’t take delivery! In the 'loan car' Carroll Shelby delivered the goods, taking a fastest time in the hillclimb in the morning and winning the race in the afternoon. After the race 0614 was returned to Chinetti’s premises recieving its as-promised full check over before Helburn eventually took delivery of his 'new' car in the September, some 11 months later! William Helburn may have had a long wait for his car to be delivered, but maybe it would have been better had the wait been prolonged, as in his first race at Watkins Glen he inverted the car. Fortunately damage to both he and the car was only superficial. Ferrari couldn’t get their team cars unloaded because of a New York dock strike, so asked Chinetti to send the latest competition examples at his disposal to Nassau for the Bahamas Speed Week, one of which was the repaired 0614 – race entry sheets show that 0614 was a factory team entry for 1 week! … with Helburn driving, where he posted some reasonable results. His next appearance in the car was in the Cuban Grand Prix in Havana in February 1957, where he shared it with Ferrari works driver Olivier Gendebien, who, from contemporary reports, did the lion’s share of the driving, resulting in a 5th place overall finish on race # 36. After this race he traded the car back to Chinetti and took delivery of the new for 1957 500 TRC. Luigi Chinetti eventually sold the TR to Boris “Bob” Said later in 1957, whose main claim to fame at the time, was that he was the first American driver to win a race in post-war Europe. Like the previous owner, William Helburn, he took 0614 MDTR to Nassau for the Bahamas Speed Week, where he achieved a 3rd in class in the Tourist Trophy, plus a 3rd overall and class win in the Governor’s Trophy, together with another class win in the Nassau Trophy. Boris “Bob” Said later turned from motor racing to bobsleigh competition, and was a member of the USA team for both the 1968 and 1972 Winter Olympics. The next owner was James Place of Waukegan, Illinois, who bought it from Said during 1958, and then went on to race it through to 1960. During this time he had some good results with the now “ageing” race car, and to keep it competitive, during 1959 he installed a Chevrolet V8 engine. However, this didn’t prove to be a success, as all known results in this form were a DNF. From information provided by Bruce Lavachek, the reason for the engine swap was that in mid-1959, Place had sent the original engine to Chinetti for an overhaul and rebuild. When he was advised that the work was complete, and given the bill, he thought the figure so outlandish that he told Chinetti to keep it......likely in much stronger terms! Coincidentally, around this time Gordon Glyer of Sacramento, California, had the engine in his 500 TR, chassis # 0650 MDTR, blow up. He enquired of Chinetti the possibility of obtaining a replacement engine, and of course he just happened to have one on the shelf. Thus the engine from 0614 MDTR was fitted in 0650 MDTR, where it has remained ever since. By a bizarre twist of fate, 0614 MDTR today has an engine with “Numero Interno” 46 TR, which from factory records is the engine originally fitted to 0650 MDTR. 0614 MDTR first came to Bruce Lavachek’s attention during a conversation with Dick Merritt at the 1978 USA Grand Prix at Watkins Glen, when Dick mentioned that he had inspected a 500 TR somewhere in Wisconsin a few years earlier. He didn’t recall where, or who owned the car, but did remember the chassis # - 0614 MDTR. He further said that it was in such an incomplete and deteriorated state that it didn’t make financial sense as a restoration project. Undeterred, Bruce began making enquiries around his circle of Ferrari friends, to see whether he could locate the car. Although 0614 MDTR had been well known from new in the US, it had now disappeared without a trace. The only clue to its ownership came from Gerald Roush, who at some stage prior to Bruce contacting him, received a telephone call from someone saying that he was the owner of 0614, and before the conversation could go any further the line went dead! Roush had no idea of where the man was, but at least this was a start, and over the years Bruce kept revisiting the quest to find the car. Roush later confided to Bruce that the call may have been from someone who was having second thoughts. At the time Bruce was travelling a lot on business, and frequently while spending many evenings in motel rooms he would pick up the phone and call Ferrari friends in the area. Eventually there was a “Eureka!” moment in November 1988 when he made the contact that he had been trying to track down for 10 years! The agreement and payment plan for the acquisition of 0614 MDTR was finalized and signed on a napkin in a farmhouse kitchen in the summer of 1989. The vendor then disappeared for seven years, but everybody who knew him assured Bruce that he was a man of his word. Sure enough he contacted him after having had to tend to his terminally ill father in a distant location. Eventually when everything was settled up, Bruce loaded the car into a Penske rental truck and took it home to Arizona. For a variety of more pressing commitments and personal reasons it remained in further repose until 2012. In 2012 its lengthy period of hibernation came to an end, when it was finally extracted from its repose and shipped across the Atlantic to DK Engineering in the UK to be resuscitated. Bruce had known David Cottingham for many years, and felt that both he (David) and his company’s in depth knowledge and previous experience with Ferrari four-cylinder models would be the best choice to breathe new life into the old girl. The result was a three year ground up restoration, going to great lengths to retain the original aluminium body shell, and to source and incorporate the correct specification missing period components, which as previously noted included the engine from 500 TR, chassis # 0650 MDTR. The completed car made its public race debut post-restoration at the 2015 Goodwood Revival Meeting, where it was driven by David Cottingham in the Ferrari-only Lavant Cup Race on race #36, the same number that it wore in the 1957 Cuban Grand Prix. It was then entered in the Salon Privé Concours d’Elegance at Blenheim Palace in September 2016, where it won the “Racing Improves the Breed” class, and went on to take the prestigious “Best of Show” award. Having been acquired by DK Engineering in 2018, 0614 MDTR enjoyed two years of competition on the international concours circuit, with appearances at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in 2019 and the Cavallino Classic the following year. Afterward, 0614 MDTR changed hands once more. Over the past five years, while remaining part of a significant Ferrari collection, 0614 MDTR has been awarded Classiche Certification numbered #122 as raced at Nassau in 1957 and, as of 2025, is once again available for acquisition. 1956 Ferrari 500 TR D.K.
