1986 Pontiac Fiero GT

B

orn amidst a wave of innovation and a quest for efficiency, the Fiero sought to redefine the American sports car market. Introduced in 1984, the Fiero was first conceived as a fuel-efficient automobile, leveraging mid-engine architecture for optimal balance and handling. This was also the first time a mass-production American mid-engine automobile was produced and sold. By 1986, the Fiero GT took Pontiac’s mid-engine experiment to the next level. This final iteration, adorned with the “GT” moniker, was a testament to the brand’s commitment to pushing boundaries. Under the hood, a 2.8-liter V-6 engine with 135 horsepower transformed the Fiero into a true performance machine, helping challenge the perception of American sports cars in the 1980s.

In total, 368,263 Pontiac Fieros were built between 1984 and 1988; of those, the GT equates to just 17 percent of all Fiero production. A part of that small statistic is this 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT that is equipped with a desirable four-speed manual transaxle. Kept in a climate-controlled garage, this clean and wellmaintained Fiero’s black finish presents very well, as does the gray cloth interior in the cabin. Showing 37,146 miles on the odometer, this example is accompanied by a clean and detailed CARFAX® report. Adding to the drivability and everyday practicality of this Fiero GT, it is equipped with an array of items which include power brakes, power windows, power locks, tilt steering wheel, Kenwood stereo, factory “snowflake” wheels, and a rear spoiler.

Open the rear bonnet, and one will find a welltaken care of 2.8-liter V-6 engine that produces 135 horsepower. Weighing in at approximately 2,700 pounds, this nimble little sports car is a thrill to drive and handles very well when taking corners and curves at a higher rate of speed.

Today, the Pontiac Fiero GT has garnered a cult status among collectors and enthusiasts, a testament to its unique place in American automotive history. A mid-engine design that inspired a new generation of automobiles that can be seen in all sectors today, this black, four-speed standard shift ’86 Fiero GT is bound to keep its lasting flair and make a great summer and weekend driver.

• Collector grade 240Z • Complete mechanical and cosmetic refurbishment • Documented by photos and restoration invoices • A wonderful example of the iconic Datsun brand

1972 Datsun 240Z Coupe

T

he Nissan 240Z, internally known as the “Nissan S30,” and sold in Japan as the “Fairlady Z” is a grand touring sports car produced from the late ‘60s to the late ‘70s. President of Nissan Motor Corporation U.S.A., Yutaka Katayama conceived and lent a hand in designing the grand tourer that resulted in the first installment of Z cars to come. The 240Z was aimed directly at European sports cars like the MGB-GT and was initially priced within $200 of its competition.

Quickly resonating with the public, the 240Z’s styling, performance, and price received positive press from both buyers and journalists alike. It also immediately generated long waiting lists. As a halo car for the brand, it broadened Japanese-carmakers' scope outside of just economy cars.

All variants of the S30 came with four-wheel independent suspension consisting of MacPherson struts in the front and Chapman struts in the rear.

Stopping was accomplished through the use of disc brakes up front and drums in the rear. The 240Z made use of twin SU-style Hitachi single-barrel side-draft carburetors for a total output of 151 horsepower.

The 1972 Datsun 240Z on offer here is finished in Nissan’s Fire Red. This example underwent a full mechanical and cosmetic refurbishment about six years ago. The entire car was stripped to bare metal with the engine receiving a comprehensive rebuild as well as the interior being partially refreshed. As it sits today, the car is in wonderful shape. Each panel lines up nicely, the paint has a brilliant shine, and

the car runs great with the engine revving freely.

The previous owner performed various reliability updates during his ownership such as an updated oil pump and feed tubes as well as a new clutch fan. There were also some modifications done for period-correctness, with new tailgate hatch shocks, fresh OEM rubber bumper strips, and OEM tow hooks for the front of the vehicle.

Accompanying the sale of this 240Z are restoration photos and invoices, a complete set of hard-to-find aluminum rear drums, as well as a front and rear lip spoiler. As these Z cars continue to gain popularity by both young and old enthusiasts, this collector grade example represents a phenomenal opportunity to own one of the very best of its kind.

• High-quality, older restoration • Rare and desirable first-year Model A Roadster Pickup body style • Dual side mount tires • Great running and driving truck

1928 Ford Model A Roadster Pickup

W

hen Ford’s new Model A was introduced in November 1927 there was just one pickup, the 76-A open-cab or roadster style. The closed cab pickup did not become available until several months later. Built on the same 103½-inch wheelbase as the passenger cars, the open-cab truck retailed for $395, the same price as the phaeton. Like other open Model As, it lacked exterior door handles, but unlike the others, its top did not fold down. Instead, it was removable, as this would have interfered with its load-carrying capability.

This rare and beautiful Model A Roadster Pickup, from the first year of production, represents an

unusual and sporty body style, combining the functionality of a hard-working truck with the open-top sprightliness of a roadster. Finished attractively in Valley Green with black fenders and accented with straw-colored wheels, it is both cosmetically and mechanically excellent, as it has received a highly correct and complete restoration.

The all-steel body is in superb condition with no signs of rust anywhere. The paint is in excellent condition with very few visible blemishes. The chrome is in good shape and shows a bit of patina. The interior is in very good condition and shows well. Dual sidemounted spare wheels, a well-finished wooden bed

floor and wood stake side rails add to the character and charm of this wonderful Ford Roadster Pickup.

This is an excellent running example that boasts a 201-cubic-inch inline four-cylinder engine mated to three-speed manual transmission that are in perfect sync and are operating as they should. This roadster starts right up, idles, runs, and stops exceptionally well, making it fun and pleasurable to drive. Highly desirable and quite rare today, this 1928 Ford Model A Roadster Pickup is a perfect collector vehicle for the novice or expert alike, as it is both usable and very enjoyable, and it provides the owner with the option of open-air touring.

1955 Ford Thunderbird Convertible • Debut year for the iconic Thunderbird • Three-speed manual transmission with desirable overdrive

• Raven Black over a two-tone interior • Noted as the first American personal luxury car

W

in its first year. The most incredible aspect of the Thunderbird’s development was that it went from idea to prototype in just one year, as it made its debut at the 1954 Detroit Auto Show and, by 1955, was on showroom floors. The charm and elegance of the two-seater Thunderbird would last just three years, making the first generation of this fabulous automobile one of America’s most stylish and memorable cars from the 1950s.

hen Chevrolet introduced the Corvette in 1953, it didn’t take Ford long to counterstrike with a two-seater of its own.

When that answer came, it wasn’t strictly a sports car, but an all-new concept in motoring history called a “personal luxury” car. Ford wanted a car that offered sporty performance while also being comfortable and pleasurable to drive. Thus, the Thunderbird was born and became an immediate success, selling 16,155 units

Acquired by the current owner in 2013, this T-Bird has been his weekend cruiser for the last 11 years. A resident of the Midwest, this classic bird was mainly driven in the summertime, and stored in his climate-controlled garage during the remaining months. Originally built at the Dearborn Assembly Plant in Michigan, this example wears the same color it did when it rolled out of the factory, code “A” Raven Black.

On the inside is a tasteful two-tone black and white interior with all the fabulous trim appointments that make the Thunderbird a personal luxury car.

The elegantly styled dashboard features a clear see-through instrument panel, factory tachometer, and all the gauges mounted ahead of the driver. Other interior amenities include a power bench seat, heating/defroster system, and AM/FM radio. Mechanically, 1955 Thunderbirds are simple and have a reputation for being relatively trouble-free, which is part of the reason they sold quite well

with their thrilling V-8 engines. This vintage bird is motivated by a 292-cubicinch overhead valve V-8 engine and is mated to a classic three-speed manual transmission with desirable overdrive. Combined with its power brakes, this Thunderbird becomes an ideal weekend cruiser with plenty of V-8 “get up and go” power to spare on any road. This T-Bird is accompanied by a color-matched removable hardtop, soft top, spare tire, and a workshop manual.

The fabulous Thunderbird was a car that not only set a new world standard but also created a new class of automobiles, dubbed personal luxury vehicles.

Power to spare, and with a good dose of comfort, it made for a car that was a pleasure to drive. Ford created something special with the first-generation Thunderbird and its two-seat configuration. With its dedication to authenticity and charming characteristics, this ’55 Ford Thunderbird Convertible proves to be a solid driver example of one of America’s most iconic automobiles.

A major safety improvement was relocating the transmission shifter from the floor to the steering column and with “finger tip” operation, it made changing gears easier and safer for the driver while providing more leg room and comfort for front seat passengers. Those riding in the new 1940 Ford enjoyed a more pleasing experience with the addition of double-acting shock absorbers, longer front springs, and deep, soft cushioned seats. Under the hood, the V-8 engine provided plenty of power for day-to-day driving whether it was to and from work, a shopping expedition, or on a journey to visit far away relatives. From every angle the 1940 Fords were rolling works of art, impressive when new and deeply admired today.

Our consignor acquired this car recently from a close friend who had restored and built it as a gift for his father. Finished in deep rich Claret Maroon, it captures the look that others tried to copy. At the time of cataloging, the car showed a little over 2,600 miles since its build. Completed in 2011, the two-year project took no short cuts with attention to quality and perfection. Treated to a full frame-off restoration, the body panels are smooth and aligned just as they were so artfully designed. Applied in several steps using the PPG Clear Coat system, the deep maroon paint today shows the care and quality of application.

Show quality chrome was installed inside and out including the center grille, bumpers, headlight surrounds and door handles. Fresh brown leather seating surfaces comfort the driver and passenger while the tight-fitting folding tan top is textbook perfect in execution and appearance. During the process, all

electrics were upgraded to 12 volts which allowed the installation of a new set of custom gauges from VDO, completed with a billet aluminum dashboard.

All-new plastic dashboard trim items were installed; the floor covering and door panels were all completed to the same degree of excellence. The show quality chassis was finished in high-gloss chassis black paint and, during the restoration, a custom disc brake system was added up front while the rear drum brakes were completely rebuilt. The wheels were finished in the same Claret Maroon and, today, are fitted with a fresh set of wide whitewall tires plus both inner and outer bright metal trim rings and hubcaps. The real treat on this 1940 DeLuxe is what’s under the hood. A totally built 239-cubic-inch flathead engine was installed and fitted with Offenhauser finned aluminum heads, as well as a triple-carburetor intake manifold, also from Offenhauser. Currently just one highly polished Stromberg 97 sits atop the manifold; however, the second and third Strombergs are included in the sale. Power comes from a solid-state Petronix system working with a Mallory performance distributor. Fenton cast iron headers are mounted to the engine and feed the gases through a dual exhaust system. On close inspection there are many little details you will see such as the Ford script tailpipe extensions and the blue dot inserts on the rear taillights. From the exterior, this 1940 Ford DeLuxe convertible looks like it is pure stock, while the subtle upgrades and extra performance make this a ride that can be proudly shown and confidently driven. Also included are a few spare parts and the original chassis parts book as well as reprints of other service items. With outstanding good looks and a reliable drivetrain, shouldn’t this Ford be in your future?

• Striking triple black presence • Nicely restored and mechanically sound

debut in March of 1961 and was available for export only. Just a few months later, it became available to the home crowd. The Series I Jaguar E-Type was an instant hit with a 3.8-litre inline six fitted with triple SU carburetors. Handling was spectacular in a chassis that was well-tuned. The Series II made its debut in 1968 and several upgrades and refinements were incorporated including power steering and air-conditioning as factory options.

here are some cars that achieve a look of timeless elegance from the very start. When Jaguar introduced the E-Type, everyone stopped and stared at the beautiful sleek roadster that set the automotive world on fire. Even the master himself, Enzo Ferrari, called it, “The most beautiful car ever made.” This was high praise coming from the man who literally defined how speed should look in a European car. The first Jaguar E-Type made its

By the time the Series III took its bow in 1971, the XKE had become a well-tuned sports car that had very little room for improvement, but Jaguar had an ace up its sleeve in the form of a V-12 engine that generated an impressive 276 horsepower. The Series III E-Type had now become a world-class sports car and was in a league all its own.

According to the accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate, this numbers matching E-Type rolled off the production line on October 20, 1972, and was dispatched to the United States on December 22nd, 1972, finding its first owner via the famed British Leyland New York distribution company.

Originally leaving the factory in white over a dark blue interior, this V-12 Roadster has undergone a complete restoration and has been refinished in a striking black paint that contrasts with its lovely chrome trim pieces. Documented by invoice forms, the interior had $13,000 worth of work performed by Aventura Auto Service of Southampton, New York. This work consisted of new upholstery on the seats, door panels, and center console, while the floor received a new Wilton Wool carpet set. Matching the triple black color scheme, the dash

was also re-trimmed with correct Jaguar black vinyl and the trunk received a Hardura-style mat. In 2016, Aventura Auto Service also carried out an array of mechanical refinements to the tune of $16,000. This included repairing the charging system, replacing the radiator cooling fan and rear transmission mount; the ignition timing was set and the carburetors were balanced. A finetuned British Roadster, the 276-horsepower V-12 engine and pairing four-speed manual gearbox combine for an unforgettable experience, especially while the black top is down.

Classic British styling comes alive in this Series III Jaguar that is perhaps the ultimate in open touring of its time. This example, with its long, sleek, and sexy look coupled with the magnificent power of its V-12 engine, is a car that is a true pleasure to drive. As a third series example, it also benefits from the refined development of the latest model in the E-Type story. An attractive triple black example that is accompanied by a JDHT certificate and various invoices, this numbers-matching example will surely fit the bill for a discerning collector or someone who is looking for the ultimate British driving machine.

Designed under Bill Mitchell's direction, it was penned by Jerry Hirshberg, future Head of Design for Nissan, mating the two-piece seamed fastback rear window, inspired by the 1963 Corvette Sting Ray coupe, to the Riviera's platform.

While produced with its distinctive rear treatment essentially intact through 1973, the first cars for 1971 are the most sought after by today's collectors for their purity of design with smaller chrome

rom its debut in 1963, Buick's personal-luxury Riviera served proudly as one of the most stylish postwar automobiles ever produced. Redesigned for 1971, the Riviera took the concept to new heights with a stunning new body design featuring a dramatic "boattail" rear treatment, a styling flourish favored by GM Styling Chief, Bill Mitchell, and his deep appreciation of prewar automotive icons from Bugatti, Adler, and other European greats.

bumpers placed close to the body and clean bodysides without moldings.

The 1971 Riviera also featured Buick’s last use of the Full-Flo ventilation system including handsome rear-deck air louvers. While the Riviera was an already strong performer with Buick's powerful 455-cubic-inch V-8 engine rated at 315 horsepower, the Riviera Gran Sport delivered a power boost to 330 factoryrated horsepower. Other Gran Sport-exclusive features included a chrome air cleaner, a specially calibrated Turbo-Hydramatic 400 automatic transmission, Heavy-Duty suspension, a 3.42 limited slip differential, H78 x 15 bias-ply tires, and special 'Riviera GS' monograms to the front fenders and instrument panel.

This former California car was built during the first week of January 1971 and features a trim tag-correct Code 65 Copper Mist paint finish - a color choice exclusive to the top-of-the-line Rivera, accented by Code 684 optional Sandalwood vinyl upholstery. The luxurious interior features a comfortable, six-way adjustable power front seat with a fold-down armrest. The engineturned dash applique adds some classic style, meant to echo some sporting

1930s elegance, as the boattail styling would suggest. Interior amenities on this rare Riviera include a tilt steering column, factory AM/FM radio, air-conditioning, factory Buick logoed floor mats and power windows. In a remarkable state of preservation, the well-appointed cabin appears to have never been smoked in, as the sparklingly clean ashtrays suggest. Ample power and performance are delivered by Buick's powerful 455-cubic-inch V-8 engine, rated at 330 horsepower. Features and options include a nearly invisible radio antenna contained inside the windshield and Buick's handsome chrome road wheels mounted with new tires. A full service was performed recently and the Riviera's weatherstripping is new. Mileage is believed to be original and documents include the radio and owner's manuals, plus the Protect-O-Plate warranty card confirming the original sale of this Riviera GS to its first owner, a resident in Stockton, California. This elegant and exciting 1971 Buick Riviera is a rare find in such fine original condition, and even rarer with the coveted GS option, presenting a unique opportunity to acquire one of the best Buicks of the era.

previous generation's recessed pop-up headlights were retained while the windshield wipers were now concealed beneath a vacuum-operated panel, the latter feature being inherited from the Mako Shark II. Some small styling details such as the grille work and fender side vents were revised for the 1970 model years.

Because the production of the Corvette would remain virtually unchanged from 1970 to 1971, production lines in the St. Louis

nly five years after the Sting Ray's arrival, a total re-style ushered in the Corvette's 'Stingray' era, though the latter name badging was not seen on the new model until 1969. Based on GM's 1965 Mako Shark II show car, the new-for-'68 Corvette coupe became a 'notchback' with removable rear window and detachable, two-piece 'T-top' (Targa) roof, while the roadster, or convertible version could be ordered with optional hardtop. The

Corvette plant were able to work in earnest to produce a more trouble-free car. In fact, the more than 500 men and women that worked each shift at the Corvette plant were highly motivated to build a better machine, knowing that they were fortunate not to be part of the many facilities across the country that mass-produced “faceless utility cars”, but rather a well-respected, much sought-after sports car. Vince Shanks, the plant manager of the St. Louis Corvette Manufacturing facility, was quoted as saying, “When you ask a guy where he works in St. Louis, he’ll tell you ‘Corvette’ rather than ‘Chevrolet.’ Every Corvette he sees on the road is one he’s worked on. That’s quite an incentive.”

The United Auto Workers (UAW) labor dispute that occurred in May 1969, which had caused the 1969 model year to run over by two months, had also shorted production of the 1970 Corvette by over four months. Because of this, it was decided by Chevrolet management that they would treat the 1971 model year as an extension of the 1970 line, which meant that the Corvette - for better or worse - would remain essentially unaltered between the two model years.

This handsome Corvette is finished elegantly in Steel Cities Gray. Only 1,591, or 7.3-percent, of 1971 Corvettes were painted this color. A set of BFGoodrich Silvertown Redline tires mounted to the original 15-inch Corvette rally wheels enhance the sporting style of this car’s timeless design. Decoding its data

plate confirms the C3 to have been built much the way it can be seen today, in this color scheme and with its 454 LS5 engine, still producing a healthy 365-horsepower in this configuration, before it was reined in for 1972. This is an original LS5 car, still carrying a date-code correct LS5 engine with a "CE" engine stamping indicating that the motor installed was a "Counter Exchange" warranty replacement when the car was new. The car remains with its originally equipped four-speed manual transmission, with the Muncie M20 unit matching the engine and allowing the driver to fully experience all its big block horsepower and tremendous torque in the most enjoyable way. Popular Hot Rod recorded the quarter mile in 14.0 seconds at 95.64 mph with this engine and transmission combination. It is also nicely equipped with four-wheel disc brakes and power steering. Other features include a luggage rack and a clean black interior that has shoulder seat belts, heater, and defroster. The condition can be described best as having the appearance of a well-kept original car. It is not clear whether the car has been repainted, but it shows only slight aging and the interior appears authentic and original.

This 1971 Corvette presents an opportunity to experience a big block, manual transmission Corvette in a very honest package of which the new owner could be justifiably proud.

1956 Volkswagen Oval-Window 'Beetle Ragtop' Sedan

T

he Chevrolet Corvette is an icon of the American sports car and the Ford Mustang has represented pure fun since 1965, but neither have been around longer than the famous Volkswagen Beetle. Introduced before World War II as “The People’s Car,” over 21 million were built and the Beetle enjoys a following all over the world that very few cars can attest to. Some are restored to stock and some are modified but, whatever the configuration, there’s no mistaking the iconic design of the Beetle. In the present day, millions are still on the road and there are clubs and organizations all over the world that are dedicated to keeping the Beetle alive.

Offered here is a wonderful example of this large chapter in automotive history in the way of a 1956 Beetle that underwent a two-year restoration in the mid-2010s which presents very well with only slight

signs of use in the door seal. The restoration was performed by KAO Autostyling of Las Vegas, Nevada.

The refurbishment involved a complete removing of the pan and replacing all rubber pieces with all-new German specification replacements. The seats were restored with OEM-specification German cloth and the headliner was refurbished in original mohair material. The ragtop is a German Stayfast cloth sliding convertible top and looks great. The nicely detailed engine compartment is clean and the 36-horsepower 72.74-cubic-inch four-cylinder engine was professionally rebuilt and runs wonderfully. Driving is a breeze with a four-speed gearbox that makes both city and highway driving a pleasure. This Beetle rides on Coker Classic wide whitewall tires that are mounted on correct factory rims for a truly nostalgic look. The color of this

Beetle is Volkswagen’s factory-correct Reed Green and all stainless and chrome is either new or has been refinished to a beautiful shine. All lenses have also been replaced for clear and bright lighting. Other amenities on this cute Beetle are drum brakes, bucket seats, folding open top, rear grab handles, and pillows. Most interesting is that this little Beetle carries the wolf and castle “Wolfsburg” badging that was found only on the Beetle from 1951-1959. It is accompanied by the spare tire jack, tool kit, and workshop manual. The Volkswagen Beetle is an iconic car that represents basic transportation and this ragtop is a rare and beautiful example of Germany’s finest. For the very best in the classic Beetle from Volkswagen, this captivating ovalwindow VW is ready for proud display and spirited driving of any distance.

1965 Sunbeam Tiger MK I

B

ritish sports cars have always held a special place in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts, and with their lightweight designs and good looks, they are often the darlings of classic car shows. When the small British sports car called the AC Ace was outfitted with American V-8 power and called the Shelby Cobra, many people were watching, including the employees of the Rootes Group, another British car manufacturer. Inspired by the outcome of the Cobra, they took one of their Series III Alpine Roadsters, originally powered by a small four-cylinder engine, and sent it right to the man himself, Carroll Shelby, to see if something similar could be developed. Shelby and Ken Miles set about fitting a small Ford V-8 into

the little Alpine. The Shelby design, with its engine set far back for good balance was chosen for the new power plant, and the Sunbeam Tiger was set to be produced by Jensen Motors Ltd. based out of Staffordshire, England.

One of the most ferocious cats to sprint on the open pavement, the Sunbeam Tiger is the perfect blend of British styling and raw American power.

Restored in 2016 to a very high standard, this 1965 Sunbeam Tiger MK I is a wonderful example of the British brand and is well-presented in Carnival Red over a black vinyl interior with red piping. During the restoration process, the suspension was rebuilt, Panasport wheels were sourced, and an all-new

interior was installed, along with a Blaupunkt AM/ FM radio.

Like the rest of this Tiger, the engine bay is nicely detailed and features a thrilling 260-cubic-inch American V-8 powerplant that is mated to a fourspeed manual transmission. A certified example from the Sunbeam Owner’s Association, this small, lightweight, and nimble, fully restored Tiger is the ultimate example of how American horsepower can transform an automobile. Ready for spirited driving, this Tiger will be a blast on the road and make its next owner the talk of the town, as these Britishbuilt automobiles are becoming harder to find and sightings on the road have become rare today.

throughout, and prominent Mercedes-Benz grille. It boasted high-quality materials, fine wood trim, comfortable leather seats, and most importantly, a 5.6-litre V-8 engine that delivered brisk acceleration and a smooth, refined ride. These innovations and features combined to make the 560SL a leader in the luxury car segment during its era.

This beautiful black 560SL Roadster has been a West Coast car its entire life and has had a limited roster of ownership since new. The car was sold new in the Seattle area and would stay in the vicinity until arriving in Auburn, Indiana, to be sold at the Enthusiast Auction. Ownership includes single family lineage for 34 years. During that time, it was registered to a lady in Bellevue, Washington, and used carefully as her daily driver. Upon her passing, it was purchased from the estate and enjoyed by her daughter until approximately 12 years ago when her job took her to Hong Kong. The car would be stored with her sister who would start and move the car monthly, occasionally taking it out for drive to "get the dust off" as she said. The current owner acquired the car in 2022 for

his wife and it has been driven sparingly since. It was decided that after not much use, and an already crowded five-car garage, that the car would be better enjoyed by a more active owner and is offered here for sale.

The car presents today as it did in 1987 with its original black paint, original black interior and powerful, yet smooth original V-8 engine. The aftermarket wheels were replaced with a factory set wrapped by new old stock, 1988 datecoded Pirelli P4 tires to give it the proper look that it had when it rolled off the assembly line. With just some 71,800 miles from new, there will be plenty of enjoyment to be had by its next owner. It even has the seldom seen factory first aid kit stowed behind the seat. This example is highly enjoyable on sunny days with the top down/off and is cozy and warm with the top on when the weather cools off. Either way, you’ll look and feel great in this attractive and sporting 560SL roadster manufactured by one of the most respected car builders in history – Mercedes-Benz.

Per the original title that is included with the car, it was sold new by Chevrolet dealer White Motor Sales in Lancaster, Ohio, to a gentleman from Sugar Grove, Ohio, on 3/26/1938 for $743, and he retained it for 45 years before selling it to Bowman Chevrolet in Hebron, Ohio, on 11/14/1983

VIN: 9HB01-7101 hevrolet introduced the Master model in 1933 as the successor to the Eagle and offered it in a number of two- and four-door body styles. Production ended in 1942 with the U.S. entering WWII. This 1938 Master Town Sedan was built in GM’s Norwood, Ohio assembly plant in January 1938 and was originally finished

for $15,569. Sometime in the late 1980s, it was purchased by a gentleman from Michigan who proceeded to restore it to a high level, along with tastefully hot rodding it. His son updated the car with a lovely new interior and wheels and has enjoyed the car ever since.

Today, it is beautifully finished in a custom mixed green paint that was applied in 1990 by Aman’s in Canton, Ohio - including period-correct hand-applied champagne-colored pinstriping, and it still presents exceptionally well today.

The lovely chrome grille is immaculate, as is all the trim, thereby verifying the collector car status this fine auto has enjoyed for decades in proper collector car storage. The custom interior was updated and installed in 2015 with a lovely modern presentation. The two-tone tan and chocolate brown upholstery in leather and suede is beautiful with no visible wear to speak of. The original gauge cluster was retained, but operationally replaced with a beautifully crafted gauge cluster mounted at the bottom of the dash housing. VDO gauges include battery voltage, fuel, speedometer, trip odometer, water temperature, and oil pressure. You’ll love the modern Ididit tilt steering column and the classic chromed Hurst floor shifter. The current mileage shows as 1,123 miles, which has been verified to be the mileage accumulated since the installation of the new gauges in 2015.

Under the hood proudly sits a GM Performance ZZ3 350-cubic-inch V-8 crate engine, which is rated by GM at 345 horsepower at 5,200 RPM and 395 lbs.-ft. of torque at 3,500 RPM. It is mated to a 1969 dated Muncie M20 four-speed manual transmission. Fuel delivery arrives via a Holly 750 CFM four-barrel carburetor with Delco Remy ignition. The exhaust is comprised of a set of mild headers with manual cutouts running through Flowmaster mufflers. The chassis and suspension are largely stock, aside from extra bracing and modern gas shock absorbers. Power hits the road through a Ford 9-inch rear-end, and braking is provided by power discs up front and drums in the back. The custom look is highlighted by a set of one-off custom-made color matched Rushforth artillery style wheels with polished lips, sized at 18-inch up front and 20-inch in the back. They are mounted with Nitto NT555 Extreme ZR performance tires.

Fully ready for show or go, this lovely Master Town Sedan Streetrod has been recently serviced by Nostalgia Motoring in Auburn Hills, Michigan, and it runs and drives fantastically. All the service records, the original title, and the registration stamps from 1939-1983 are included with the purchase. This is a wonderful opportunity to own an immaculate and highly documented pre-war motorcar.

ver since introducing their automobile in 1886, Mercedes-Benz has been a pioneering leader in the luxury car market and a company that has kept a strict reputation for building only the finest. First shown in 1972 on the W116 platform, Mercedes-Benz introduced a new model, the S-Class. The S-Class represented not just the pinnacle of the automobile, but also the pinnacle of passenger comfort, a luxury sedan that offered all-day comfort, cutting-edge technology for its time, and, of course, a powerful engine. An S-Class model has been offered for each model year since, and the first S-Class introduced, the 450 SE and SEL are arguably the cars that really put the three-pointed star on the map for luxury sedans. Road & Track wrote this after reviewing

and test-driving this model in June of 1973, “The Mercedes-Benz 450 SE is the best sedan in the world.”

A bold statement, indeed.

Offered from a private collection, this 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450 SE Sedan has been fastidiously maintained following an abundance of restoration work. It is finished in a pastel white color over a luscious red interior. The fit and finish is snug throughout, and this 450 SE presents very well. Following suit with the exterior, the interior cabin has been nicely restored and gives its occupants the true comfort and feel of what luxury was like in the ‘70s. The carpet, seats, and panels are done in a oppulent red upholstery that makes a lasting impression. Leaving the factory loaded with almost everything a buyer could want

in the period – amenities included air-conditioning, power steering, power brakes, a Becker AM/FM radio, power windows, and a new feature that engaged locking mechanisms throughout the car when the driver’s door was locked.

Accompanying the sale of this fine MercedesBenz are the original factory manuals, both original data cards, a spare tire, and a Mercedes-Benz tool roll kit, items that are often hard to find. Ready to transport its occupants in total luxury thanks to its mechanically sorted 190-horsepower 4.5-litre eightcylinder engine and obvious care, this splendid 450 SE Sedan proudly claims the title as the vehicle that set the standard for the S-Class category today.

These few improvements added 30 horsepower to the overall ratings. In addition to engine functions, the motor was moved forward about three inches for

ith the success of the sensational XK120, the next generation of sports cars from Jaguar had a tough act to follow.

Engineers at Jaguar, while quite pleased with the performance and acceptance of their first post-war efforts, knew they could improve.

While the displacement of the tried-and-true inline 3.4-litre

better balance. A close-ratio four-speed gearbox combined with the well-tuned engine led to some highly spirited performance runs. Improved handling on the XK140 was based on the rack and pinion setup first used by Jaguar on the fabulous C-Type race cars. Suspension upgrades included stiffer torsion bars combined with improved telescopic shock absorbers which were now found on all four corners of the chassis. Exterior styling on the new model was based on the original XK120s but could be distinguished by its new larger front and rear bumpers, a revised and enlarged radiator grille opening, plus improved rear taillights that incorporated turn signals. For 1955, the company stated, “Jaguar presents a range of models incorporating not only added refinements, but mechanical advances directly derived from their many outstanding successes in international competitive events. All the wealth of experience gained on the racetracks of the world and in record-breaking speed and endurance tests is built into every Jaguar to provide for discriminating motorists the highest degree of efficient performance allied to comfort and safety.”

Assembled in October of 1954, this numbers-matching 1955 Jaguar XK140 MC Roadster, Chassis S810008, is likely one of the first production, left-hand drive XK140 U.S.-delivery examples to be produced. Serial numbers for Americabound export models began at 810000, so one would assume this would be the 8th one produced. Additionally, it leads to this XK140 being one of the earliest known surviving examples today. To further its heritage, the starting “S” prefix in the serial number indicates it left the factory with the top-of-the-line MC

option, or special equipment package, which included a crankshaft vibration damper, wire-spoke wheels, dual exhaust pipes, and fog lamps.

Today, this early XK140 MC benefits from a top-shelf restoration that was completed in 2012 under a Florida owner who reportedly maintained this Jag for an impressive 53 years. Benefiting from few collectors since, the restoration has matured nicely and only shows slight signs of mellowing in the paint, specifically noticable atop the boot. A classic Jaguar red color, paired with fine tan leather and sparkling chrome wire wheels, its stance is that of a true untamed British Roadster. Under the long-term owner’s tenure, he opted to tastefully update this Roadster with a five-speed manual gearbox, front disc brakes, and an aluminum radiator, further elevating its sporty driving experience.

Most recently, this Jaguar has undergone a major servicing in the winter of 2023 that consisted of an oil change, new oil filter housing, coolant flush, carb rebuild, new brake master cylinders, new brake shoes, and new spark plugs. At this same time, the wire wheels were re-chromed and fitted with new Coker Classic tires. Other features include a black convertible soft top and matching tonneau cover.

A fascinating example, as it is one of the first U.S. import XK140s to leave the famed factory, this charming numbers matching Jaguar, is a testament to the continued refinement, speed, and overall sophistication that can be found on each and every Jaguar automobile.

1964 Austin-Healey 3000 MK I

T

he Austin-Healey 3000 was introduced to the public on July 1st, 1959, as the replacement for the 100-6 model, and it quickly won the hearts of those who partook in rallies and events alike. Changes between the models were quite minimal and the wheelbase and body were unchanged, but under the hood is where the 3000 really shined. The 100-6 was equipped with a 2.6-litre engine, while the 3000 was given a 3-litre BMC C-Series engine, which was a straight six that came from the minds of the Morris engine office instead of the Austin design team. The improvement made the car highly successful leading to multiple rally victories on the European circuit, and

its success can still be seen today as many enthusiasts opt to take the 3000 model to their vintage car competitions and rallies.

A charming example of the beloved British marque is this 1964 Austin-Healey 3000 MK II. A recipient of a nut-and-bolt ground-up restoration, this example was restored to its factory original appearance of black over a red interior, per its British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate. Its BMHT will also verify this is a numbers matching example, retaining its original 177-cubic-inch inline six-cylinder engine and four-speed manual gearbox with desirable overdrive.

Other notable features include dual outside mirrors,

an adjustable steering wheel, a heater/defroster, seat belts, and free-flow exhaust system. To round out its appearance, this Roadster sports 15-inch chrome wheels with a matching spare, Michelin Radial tires, a new convertible top, and a red boot cover.

The Austin-Healey 3000 MK II was and still is well-received by enthusiasts of all generations, earning a reputation for its blend of performance and style. Comprehensively restored, and thanks to overdrive, this stunning British Roadster is capable of reaching modern-day speeds that will surely leave a lasting impression.

Over the span of the second gen’s life, about 70 different variants were sold, and at its pinnacle in 1979, Toyota retailed 49 different

he Toyota Celica was built from 1970 until 2006 and was produced in seven different generations and offered in various body styles, which included convertibles, liftbacks, coupes, and notchback coupes. One of their more unique style offerings was the liftback, which was a fastback-styled hatchback that Toyota coined as a liftback. It was introduced to the Japanese market

versions at once. Arguably one of the more desirable and memorable of those variants was the GT Liftback United States Grand Prix (USGP) Edition which was built to commemorate Toyota’s connection to the U.S. Grand Prix in Long Beach, California. Only produced for one year, it is reported that just 600 of these USGP Editions were built in total, with 200 in white, 200 in blue, and 200 in red.

A limited one-year-only model, this 1980 Toyota Celica was purchased new from Jim White Toyota of Toledo, Ohio on July 3, 1980, by Mr. B. Edwards.

Eventually moving to Tennessee, he brought this Celica with him and would maintain it for an impressive 32 years, before selling it in 2012 to a San Franciscobased collector. It was then sold to Texas-based dealer, DriverSource, in 2017 with a reported 37,727 miles before a Florida collector took ownership. The current owner acquired this sporty example in 2022 and has lovingly maintained it as it shows just 39,245 miles on the odometer at the time of cataloging.

The USGP package came at an extra cost of $750, but added unique styling cues to the exterior, such as a special honeycomb grille, flat black B pillars, Grand Prix body stripes, mudguards, and aluminum alloy wheels. The package extended into the interior as well, as it features ivory vinyl seats with black piping, an ivory-colored headliner and door panels, a black leather-wrapped steering

wheel, a USGP dash plaque, and best of all, a high-performance sound system, which consists of an electronic tuner, and equalizer/amplifier.

The 2.2-litre 20R SOHC inline-four engine is backed by a five-speed manual transmission and creates a total of 90 horsepower. It is reported that in 2016 and 2017, this Celica received a suspension freshening of the front and rear with new bushings, rubber, tie rods, hardware, and shocks. At this same time, it was reported that the engine received a thorough tune-up.

A recent participant in the 2023 annual Enthusiast Spring Driving Tour, this Celica was driven by Worldwide Auctioneers’ Bradey Gerke, who cruised around the countryside of Indiana without a flaw, smoothly shifting through all five gears. He also found himself at multiple stops explaining to onlookers what this automobile was, as they are rarely seen out in public.

Well-maintained throughout its life, and showing just under 40,000 original miles, this rare 1 of just 200 USGP Edition Celica GTs has become a culture appreciating vehicle in recent years thanks to a growing legion of younger automotive enthusiasts. Positioned to continue to rise in popularity this example will make for a great driver, as it has already proven, or as a garage piece that is occasionally taken out and admired at meets for its subtle Japanese flair.

With three

drive settings, auto, custom and drag, the intelligent machine will instinctively modify transmission, shift paddles, traction control, suspension and steering for the application. The interior has all the comfort one would expect from the Alcantara leather seats to the Harmon Kardon Premium 18 speaker sound system. PowerTilt /Telescopic column make this a joy to drive complete with paddle shifter.

The comprehensive infotainment monitor and upgrades have a performance screen that displays reaction time, 0-60 time, 200MPH gauge info, engine performance, horsepower, torque and g-force numbers, which Dodge claims can pull 2gs.

1934 Ford 1/2 Ton Pickup

H

aving already transformed the automotive industry multiple times with the Model T and the introduction of the manufacturing process known as the assembly line, Henry Ford and the Ford Motor Company once again shook up the industry in 1932 with their introduction of the V-8 engine. Even though the Ford V-8 was not the first production V-8, it was the first mass-produced compact V-8 that was offered to the general public at an affordable price. So successful and loved was Ford’s V-8 engine, it would remain in production until 1953, working as the lifeline for some of the company's most historic and iconic models.

Promoted by Ford under their commercial car category and carrying that same iconic V-8 powerplant Ford first introduced in 1932, comes this nicely restored 1934 Ford ½-Ton Pickup Truck.

The body is finished in the shade of Mountain Brown lacquer which was only available for Ford’s commercial cars in 1934 and is nicely complemented by gold pinstriping along the belt line, black fenders, and classic Tacoma Cream wire wheels including a passenger side-mounted spare tire. The body is also accessorized with dual side mirrors, fog lights, and brake lights. The fit and finish are nice and tight throughout and the pickup bed is clean and presents very well.

The cabins of these early V-8 Ford Pickups are simple but appreciated by enthusiasts. The bench seat is lined in vegan black leatherette and both crank windows go up and down with ease, with a pop-out windshield in the front. Mechanically, this Ford runs as good as it looks, as the 85-horsepower, 221-cubicinch V-8 engine fires right up and the three-speed manual transmission shifts through the gears with ease. The engine bay is tidy and features all the correct parts.

With the interest only continuing to rise in these light-duty pickups, this nicely restored Ford ½-Ton Pickup is one that will stand out in the crowd, while providing pleasure from its performance to and from one’s desired destination.

1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS

A

s soon as the Camaro was released in the fall of 1966, avid motor sportsmen started to look for ways to compete with this hot new entry. Like the Mustang, the Camaro was a sub-compact that could be all things to all people. Camaro’s body was styled to represent speed, and it was an immediate sensation. There were several trim packages and a number of performance upgrades. But Chevrolet wanted to see their new compact sports car do something great and Camaro’s team was not going to sit still until they had a winner. One of the hottest segments of motorsports was the SCCA’s new Trans Am Series, and Camaro’s engineering wizard Vincent Piggins developed just the engine to go racing. With a displacement limit of just over 305 cubic inches, a special 302 V-8 was developed using many off-the-shelf parts. Using the 283-cubic-inch small block as the start, the three-inch bore worked in perfect unison with the four-inch stroke provided in the 327. Add a long list of other

performance enhancements and a powerhouse was achieved.

Officially and conservatively rated at 290 horses, and designated accessory group Z28, it was off to the races. Backed by Roger Penske, Mark Donohue campaigned the Z28 to multiple wins in 1967, taking home the SCCA championship in both 1968 and 1969. The success of this potent race car would spill over into sales and make all first-gen Camaros even more sought after.

A recipient of a documented rotisserie restoration that took place in the late ‘80s/early ‘90s, this example is finished in bright red with a white factory-style SS stripe. Although having been well-maintained, the body does show cracking and spidering in spots throughout the paint. The older rotisserie restoration is nicely documented by a binder full of receipts dating back to 1987. The exterior is complemented nicely by the Camaro's SS heat extractor hood, factory-style rear spoiler, factory chrome and stainless trim, and a set of GM rally wheels with derby

center caps. The factory-correct black vinyl houndstooth interior is in great condition. Interior creature comforts include an upgraded Alpine AM/FM stereo with cassette, heater/defrost, variable speed wipers and added oil pressure and water temperature gauges.

Powering this Camaro SS is a 396-cubic-inch big block V-8 engine backed by its Turbo-Hydramatic 400 three-speed automatic transmission. The power from the big block is transferred to the rear wheels by the 12-bolt rear end. Both the engine and transmission perform just as they should and deliver the exhilarating driving experience from a big block Camaro.

This Camaro is nicely equipped with options such as power steering and power front disc brakes. Ready for instant road enjoyment, the next owner will feel great pride owning and thoroughly enjoying this classic American big block muscle car.

• Class award winner at the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance • Known ownership for over 60 years; Resident of multiple noted collections

P

Dutch charmed starlets, movie stars, and studio executives alike.

Everyone wanted a “Darrin of Paris.” His affected French accent may have been fake, but his talent and creative magic were one hundred percent real. The most widely celebrated of his limited custom builds were the Packard Darrins and, of those, only 14

VIN: 17012098 ackard was America’s ultimate luxury marque throughout the pre-war era and Darrin of Paris delivered some of the most glamorous coach-built examples ever produced. Howard “Dutch” Darrin was about as famous as the Hollywood stars he styled cars for. Equal parts savant, playboy, and audacious self-promoter,

are Hollywood Victorias, crafted out of his Darrin of Paris shop on the Sunset Strip in California. This is one of those Darrins, and it doesn’t get more “old Hollywood” than this.

According to Packard Darrin historian Don Figone, this particular example, chassis 1701-2098, is the only known 1939 Darrin Hollywood to leave the factory with 1940-style rear fenders, which subtly altered its appearance, but elevates its rarity among its few peers. Figone notes that known history starts again in 1955 when it was under the ownership of Texan Packard collector, James Tagliabue. Holding onto this Darrin until 1965, it was then acquired by Ken Duke, who in turn sold it to Lubbock, Texas dealer, Wendell Hawkins. The next owner would be J.J. Thompson of Florida, who in 1981 sold the Packard to the Imperial Palace Auto Collection of Las Vegas where it would be proudly displayed for many years before being sold to Mel Weiner of California.

Eventually, this rare Hollywood Darrin would have a multi-year photodocumented restoration performed by Aldrich Restoration Specialists of Clayton, Ohio. John O’Quinn of Houston, Texas would take ownership for a few years and capture a Second in Class award at the Amelia Island Concours

d’Elegance, before selling it to Orin Smith, a devoted collector who only owned the finest. Eventually leaving his impressive collection in 2017, this Packard Darrin would enjoy the presence of enthusiasts’ collections, and receive a complete engine overhaul in 2020, which is documented by invoice forms from Aldrich Restoration Specialists.

Today, 1701-2098 enjoys its restoration that earned a class award at the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance. It remains very well-kept and looked after, only showing slight signs of road patina and use. The 120 horsepower, 282-cubic-inch inline eight-cylinder engine paired with a three-speed synchromesh manual transmission with Econo-Drive overdrive are both reported to be in mechanical order, allowing for its next owner to thoroughly enjoy this rare Classic Car Club of America Full Classic® on tours around the country.

Accompanied by a large binder documenting the restoration process, and an unbroken ownership chain since 1955, this rare Packard Hollywood Darrin Victoria Convertible will make for a wonderful addition to one’s collection of rare and astute pre-war automobiles.

1917 American LaFrance Torpedo Speedster • Restored by Richard Skinner in the UK • Impressive 14.4-liter T-head engine

F

Company to become American LaFrance in 1903. American LaFrance was among the first fire apparatus companies to embrace horseless propulsion using steam engines, which proved overly cumbersome and were replaced by internal combustion power by 1907.

Unknown to many enthusiasts, American LaFrance also produced a small run of large and powerful passenger cars from

ounded in 1873 by a group of investors led by Truckson LaFrance and established in Elmira, New York, American LaFrance remains one of the oldest and most respected names in American fire apparatus manufacturing. The company’s origins started in the manufacture of hand-powered firefighting equipment during the horse-drawn era, progressing to the merger of LaFrance Manufacturing with the American Fire Engine

about 1907 to 1914, based upon Crane-Simplex automobile chassis. According to the Standard Catalog of American Cars: 1805-1942, these few American LaFrance motorcars were commonly known around the company’s workshops as “chiefs’ cars,” likely slang for vehicles manufactured for the use of American LaFrance senior management. As few as two ALF automobiles remain today.

Total production is believed to have reached about 22 examples, plus several so-called Speedsters, that inspired a number of retroactive builds, including this highly compelling example.

Retaining its identification tag numbered 1551, this 1917 American LaFrance Speedster is documented by the American LaFrance & LaFrance Register as having left the Elmira, New York factory on June 16, 1917, followed by shipment by rail to the Dunn, North Carolina fire department. Subsequent history remains unknown until it was exported to the UK, where it was built and restored by Richard Skinner and his father and reconfigured with a shortened and lightened chassis. The new adventurous four-seater touring-style Torpedo Speedster coachwork harkens back to the early day at Le Mans and Brooklands.

Formerly UK-registered as ‘1551,’ the vehicle’s massive T-head inline six-cylinder

engine displaces an impressive 14.5 liters, bearing casting number 12E-3400 and 3740 stampings. According to information posted online by Richard Skinner’s father, who participated extensively in the vehicle’s restoration and build, he designed a replacement radiator, based on the original. The father and son team designed and machined larger drive sprockets to unlock improved speed potential, which the duo carefully tested to about 60 mph following the completion of the restoration and build. During the latter 2010s, this unique vehicle was sold to a new owner in the United States who had the car refinished.

The current black paint finish remains simply gorgeous throughout and portrays a powerful and menacing persona, complemented by the luxurious green leather upholstery and new nickel-plated bright accents. Other desirable cues include a tonneau cover, mounted rear spare wheel and tire, and eye-catching “fishtail” exhaust tip. Crowning the vehicle, the massive 14.4-liter, T-head, inline engine has been impressively detailed. A unique vintage touring car with an impressive presence, this torpedo speedster celebrates the rich American LaFrance legacy and evokes rich images of adventure with every drive.

1949 Wil ys-Overland Jeepster

W

hen John North Willys acquired the Overland Automotive Division from the Standard Wheel Company in 1908, he did not anticipate the monumental impact it would have on the automotive landscape. From 1912 to 1918, Willys stood as the United States’ secondlargest automobile producer, trailing only the Ford Motor Company. With an appetite for expansion, Willys embarked on an acquisition spree, forming the Willys Corporation as a holding entity, and assimilating various automotive brands, which included the Duesenberg Motor Company plant in Elizabeth, New Jersey.

However, the exuberance of acquisitions was soon overshadowed by financial challenges exacerbated by the Great Depression, forcing Willys Corporation to sell most of its holdings. Emerging from the depths of the economic hardship, the company rebranded itself as Willys-Overland Motors, Inc. Seizing an opportunity, they secured a contract

to mass-produce a nimble reconnaissance vehicle based on American Bantam’s design, a venture facilitated by collaborations with Ford and American Bantam. The result was the iconic Willys MB, best known as the Jeep, which rolled off the assembly lines in 1941. After the war, WillysOverland was eager to resume production of vehicles for the civilian market, and the new 1948 Willys Jeepster was introduced to the public in July 1948.

A lovely and fun example from 1949, this Willys-Overland Jeepster is the recipient of a no-expense-spared restoration

by Jeepster Jim of Florida. If you couldn't guess by the name, Jeepster Jim and his crew are the go-to place to have a Jeepster restored, having done over 250 examples for clients and museums around the world. The entire vehicle was stripped to bare metal, and the body was given three coats of primer, two coats of Dupont base coat, and finished out with three coats of Dupont clear coat. The

result is this eye-catching and attractive mint color that pairs nicely with the new interior, new convertible top, and new chrome. Nothing was overlooked during the restoration, as this Jeepster features all-new glass, rubber, wiring, and all the mechanical components were rebuilt or replaced. The 62-horsepower, L-134 straight-four engine and three-speed manual transmission with overdrive run smoothly, allowing for its next lucky caretaker to enjoy this Jeepster with a swift turn of the key.

With a reported wait time of almost two years to have Jeepster Jim restore a Jeepster, this is a perfect opportunity to acquire one now with no wait and one that has already been meticulously restored. Ready to win shows, be enjoyed on the road, or be admired in a collection, this classic ’49 Jeepster is a blast from the past that will provide its next owner with numerous fond memories in the future.

nothing more than a brief interlude in the late 1980s and 1990s, the Chevrolet Impala was one of General Motors' flagship cars for many years. Named after the South African animal that can leap more than ten feet in a single bound, the Impala represented both glamour and performance as Chevrolet’s full-size car. Its versatility was demonstrated by the fact that it was available as

he automotive landscape has changed immensely over the past half-century. The modern automobile bears very little resemblance to anything built decades ago. However, one vehicle that was introduced many decades ago in 1958 and stayed in production till 2020, made it through all those years and brought a little something from the past with each new model. With

a sedan, hard top, convertible, and even a wagon. Several V-8 engine options were also available and, despite its large size, the Impala had no trouble keeping up with anything else on the road. It’s hard to believe that a car that was introduced back in 1958 is still prowling the road but, with great looks and excellent performance, it’s always been a winner.

Offered here is a fourth-generation Impala that checks all the boxes in style and performance. Finished in Marina Blue, this Impala recently underwent a body-off-the-frame restoration, during which the frame, body, and all the sheet metal were sandblasted. The frame was finished with PPG Hotrod Black paint, while PPG epoxy primer, sealer, a basecoat, and a high-solid clear coat were applied to the body. To ensure the underside of the car was just as nice as the surface, it was painted with black rock guard. A classic muscle car from the ‘60s, it has just the right amount of chrome to pair nicely with the Marina Blue body and black interior to give it a lasting impression.

Under the hood is equally pleasing, as you will find a rebuilt and bored, correct 375-horsepower 396-cubic-inch V-8 engine. Built with new pistons, roller timing chain, gears, Melling camshaft, lifters, harmonic balancer, and all-new bearings, the engine works in tandem with the rebuilt TH400 automatic transmission

and 12-inch bolt rear-end with 3.31 gears. Atop the engine is a cast iron intake manifold with four-barrel Rochester carburetors, which are flanked by exhaust manifolds and new headers. A comfortable ride, this SS is equipped with an all-new suspension system, a rebuilt steering box, and an all-new braking system that ensures a smooth and timely stopping experience.

Receiving the same treatment as the rest of the car, the cabin has been completed with new upholstery, carpet, and trim. All the electrical systems and wiring were replaced with American Autowire. It is also adorned with a Dakota Digital dash, while an industry-leading Vintage Air air-conditioning system and restored AM/FM radio can be seen in the middle dash. New speakers were also installed to fully utilize the restored stereo system. To add to its appearance and help preserve the interior, this Impala SS had tint applied to the windows.

Whether you are heading to the local cruise-in or out on a drive with the missus, this fantastic body-off restored Marina Blue 1966 Chevrolet Impala SS 396 will deliver an unforgettable experience and one that will give you a real feel for what the ‘60s muscle car era was like. Ready to be pushed to its limits, this Impala SS is ready to cause trouble with its next lucky owner behind the wheel.

of Le Mans and the Brooklands Motor Circuit. The success on the tracks led Bentley to ensure that all their models to follow would have the same sophistication and impressive performance as the original ‘20s and ‘30s vehicles did. Following that same success, the Bentley Turbo RT was introduced in 1998 and was the peak of the Bentley R platform. Only 50 Turbo RTs were built for the

or those of you unfamiliar with the distinguished racing history of Bentley motor cars, allow us to give you a quick and very brief rundown. In the 1920s and 1930s, W.O. Bentley built cars that beat the odds, competing against more powerful cars and winning. The Bentley Boys, as they came to be known, took the checkered flags at legendary race venues such as the 24 Hours

North American market over a two-year period. The cream of the crop for Bentleys in its time, the Turbo RT Long Wheelbase Sedan had a 4.5-inch longer wheelbase and boosted a turbocharged 6.75-litre V-8 engine that turned out an impressive 400 horsepower and 590 lbs.-ft. of torque, allowing its driver and three passengers to arrive in style everywhere they went.

One of the more famous Bentleys to come out of the late ‘90s, is this exclusive and highly optioned 1999 Bentley Turbo RT Long Wheelbase Sedan. Affixed to the bottom of the door seal is a plaque stating that this is the last example to be delivered to North America, which is also documented by records from Bentley. That alone makes this more desirable among its peers, but it’s who purchased it new, that takes it to the next level. Ordered through Braman Motors Inc. of Miami, Florida, this Bentley was originally purchased by world-renowned singer, Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees. Best known for their songs “Stayin’ Alive” and “How Deep is Your Love”, the Bee Gees were a group comprised of three brothers that dominated the charts in the late ‘60s and early ‘70s.

Barry Gibb’s personal vehicle for his lavish Miami home, this Turbo RT LWB left the Crewe factory finished in the color of Black Waterbase over lavish Cotswold hides with black piping upholstery, which still presents quite well today, only showing slight signs of road enjoyment. Accessories can be found throughout

this Bentley, which include veneered door panels, veneered waist rails, veneered picnic tables on the back of the front seats, Bentley logos embroidered on the headrests, an MPW sports-style steering wheel, and color-keyed door mirrors to name a few. The most expensive option on this rare Bentley, which comes as no surprise considering the musician who special ordered it, is the $3,561 uprated amplification with Mission speaker package, ensuring the best of the Bee Gees can be heard at all times.

Documented by a large file of service records during Barry Gibb’s ownership, as well as the second owner, this Turbo RT LWB has most recently been serviced

by JB Automotive Imports in Saint Petersburg, Florida in December of 2023, which the accompanying clean CARFAX® will attest to. Other important documentation includes the spec and window stickers in a custom frame from Crewe, correspondence between Barry Gibb and the Bentley factory, the official Bentley Certificate, the owner’s manual, and various other correspondence.

With the anticipation starting to rise with Barry Gibb as the executive producer of the Paramount film of the Bee Gees’ life story, this ’99 Bentley Turbo RT Long Wheelbase will surely rise with it. The last example delivered to North America from the Crewe Factory; it is a seldom seen luxury vehicle that was once owned by one of the biggest names in music history.

going on to take the 24 hours record at Atlantic City Speedway.

Not only were they outstanding performers, the eight-cylinder Auburns also represented exceptional value for the money; at $1,395, the top-of-the-range '31 Speedster was less than half the price of the equivalent Stutz. “More car for the money than the public has ever seen,” enthused Business Week magazine.

he 1932 Auburn featured a 100-horsepower, 268.6-cubic-inch L-head inline eight-cylinder engine with single two-barrel Schebler carburetor and Steeldraulic drum brakes. The eightcylinder Auburns were soon challenging Stutz for the accolade of 'America's fastest' with Al Leamy driving an 8-115 Speedster at 108.46 mph over the measured mile at Daytona in 1928 and

At the height of the Classic Era, few automobiles provided such affordable elegance as the Auburn. Particularly desirable are the 1932 and 1933 models, which combined the classic, subtle elegance of Alan Leamy’s design with the new “Dual Ratio” rear axle. This feature offered the driver a choice of high or low ratio in any of the three forward gears, which were selectable by adjusting a lever while driving below 40 mph. It functioned by operating a vacuumactuated clutch that locked or released a planetary gear set that was housed in the rear differential, creating the two possible output ratios and, in essence, a very rudimentary six-speed transmission. Eight-cylinder Auburns with Dual Ratio rears are among the most pleasurable driving cars of their time and, today, they represent an outstanding performance bargain, just as they did when new.

This striking 8-100A Cabriolet was once part of Ron Pratte’s well-known Arizona collection of rare cars before being acquired by the Guyton Collection in 2007. Mr. Guyton chose this Auburn to participate in a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, the Grand European CARavan, a month-long tour of Europe hosted by the Classic Car Club of America. Mr. Guyton’s handwritten packing lists for the journey accompanies the car, noting all the parts and tools that had to be carried to the Old World, as well as mechanical preparations made by Odyssey Restorations. He and his longtime friend, Bill Davis, much enjoyed the

trip which Mr. Guyton faithfully documented by photographs; a professionally published hardcover book of these photos, many of which feature the Auburn, is included in the file. Following the tour, the car was cosmetically freshened and returned to his collection.

In 2019, the car was acquired by another collector who toured the car and maintained it to a very high level over the last five years. The car has been so well-maintained it earned the prestigious AACA Senior Award in 2022. The 8-100A Cabriolet is a desirable Custom model, equipped from the factory with the Dual Ratio rear axle, chromed headlights, driving lights, and “Running Man” hood ornament and is still equipped with its original body, engine, and serial number tag on the floorboard. The car presents well with a highly attractive and charming older restoration and features such as painted wire wheels, blackwall tires and a lack of extraneous accessories that are much en vogue with today’s collectors and enthusiasts. In addition to the aforementioned file, this fine example is also offered with a copy of the Auburn Factory Service Bulletins for 1931–1933, which will aid a new owner in maintaining it at its very best well into the future. A striking example with excellent history and proven award and tour record, this Auburn presents a wonderful opportunity for enthusiasts and collectors from coast to coast.

designing cars for grandparents to drive. Pontiac was a step up from Chevrolet, but not quite to Oldsmobile “Rocket 88” territory or as prestigious as a Buick or luxurious as a Cadillac. Semon E. “Bunkie” Knudson who took over the reins at Pontiac in the fall of 1957 wanted to change the brand’s image, often quoted as

uring the 1950s, everyone wanted the latest and the greatest, and auto manufacturers were working hard to quench this unquenchable thirst for new. In 1955, Pontiac introduced its first overhead valve V-8 engine and, by 1957, it was already regarded as a potent performer. But Pontiac had a reputation for

saying, “You can sell a young man’s car to an old man, you can’t sell an old man’s car to a young man!” Thus, work on a new showpiece was created. Initially, it was announced that only one Bonneville convertible would be offered to each dealer, a number around 1,500 at the time. In the end, just 630 of these superior Pontiacs came off the assembly line. Standard features on each car were power steering, power brakes, power windows and power front seat, and as all Bonnevilles were to be convertibles, a power top. Fine materials would be used such as hand-buffed leather seats, plush carpets, deluxe wheel covers and special badging. Under the hood, however, was the big news, as this was the first fuel-injection system offered on a Pontiac from the factory. Developed by Rochester, a GM subsidiary, this unit bore no resemblance to the injection unit they were producing for Chevrolet. Bonneville was to be limited in numbers built and in colors available. According to a 2012 Authenticity Manual for these cars, a little more than 100 examples of these highly sought-after Bonneville cars were known to exist at that time.

Finished in Kenya Ivory with Bonneville Red side spears, this is one of the finer examples of the few remaining Bonneville convertibles. Benefiting from

a multi-year comprehensive restoration performed by Reno Rod & Custom Supply, Inc., the fit and finish are impressive and snug all around and a binder filled with invoices documenting the restoration is included in the sale. Matching the exterior color scheme, the hand-buffed leather seats are also red with white accents and are complemented by a white convertible top. In addition to the desirable power equipment, such as windows, seat, steering, brakes, and convertible top, this example is also fitted with the Wonder Bar radio.

Under the hood lies a mechanically sorted Rochester fuel-injected 347-cubicinch V-8 engine backed by a Strato-Flight Hydra-Matic automatic transmission and producing an impressive 310 horsepower. Bunkie’s plan worked well as the ’57 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible became that of legend and helped change the old-school perception of Pontiac.

Mechanically sound and a recipient of a thorough restoration, this 1 of just 630 fuel-injected Pontiac Bonneville Convertibles is a limited production and rare American-made, dare we say early muscle car, that impresses onlookers due to its rarity, performance and power – not to mention its striking good looks.

strips and painting the radiator surround in the body color – just the opposite of the former year. Each chrome strip is spot welded into place, with the Plymouth medallion now inset on the bottom of the new sloped surround. 1933 is also the last year that Plymouth had an external radiator cap. The new PD models were built to a high standard and remain among the most popular mid-sized cars of the entire era. Their efforts paid

oming out of the Great Depression, and with sales slumping on the older PC model, Plymouth made a decision to upgrade the middle of their lineup. Plymouth opted for a mid-year introduction of the new longer-wheelbase PD model, complete with sleek new long fenders, hood, and radiator shell design.

Plymouth pulled out a few new styling tricks to distinguish the new model from the older PC, including chroming the 37 vertical

dividends – the PD quickly became Plymouth’s most popular model, and by the end of 1933, the PD was outselling any single Ford or Chevrolet model which was the only time Plymouth ever achieved that status. With a new 112-inch wheelbase, a 4.375:1 rear end, and the reliable inline six pushing out 70 horsepower, Plymouth delivered over 88,000 PDs across the country in 1933, with just 4,596 of those being the desirable Rumble Seat Convertible Coupe offered here. This highly original Plymouth was lovingly restored in 2019-2020.

The vehicle was taken down to the bare metal and redone from the ground up, including the frame. Fresh beige paint with maroon accents was applied at that time over the accurately restored bodywork, and all the chrome trim was either refreshed or replaced. Even the classic Flying Lady radiator mascot looks brand new. The panel fit and overall finish is outstanding throughout, and with a new convertible top and fresh wide whitewall tires on 17-inch painted wire wheels, this car is ready for club tours, the show field, or any event the new owner might choose to attend.

Slide inside, and you’ll enjoy a fresh and correct interior throughout, with lovely upholstery on the bench seats in the correct shades both front and

rear. The gauges are all original, reportedly in working order; with the top up or down, it’s a highly accurate car that is very comfortable and ready to share with all your friends – even your mother-in-law in the rumble seat. Mechanically, the correct inline six-cylinder engine is clean and idles smoothly, mated to a three-speed manual transmission with a downdraft Carter carburetor. With 70 horsepower produced, the PD is fully capable of modern highway speeds, smoothed out by the four-wheel semi-elliptic leaf spring suspension. Likewise, four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes are in fine condition, providing an extra measure of safety. Just one drive and you’ll realize why these smooth and stylish cars were so popular in 1933. They offered an exceptional ride, plenty of power, and room for five at a price that was very attractive. With many of these beautiful Rumble Seat Convertible Coupes turned into custom hot rods, the chances of finding such a highly original PD are getting slim. The new owner will certainly enjoy the tidy mechanicals, lovely finish, and the clean and comfortable interior, making the purchase of this rare Rumble Seat Convertible Coupe just like a pre-punched ticket to classic automotive fun.

white roadster had three side-draft carburetors, a hot cam, high compression head and dual exhausts. Its 150 horsepower would propel the car to 60 mph in 11 seconds – not bad for the early '50s.

At first, a conventional steel body was planned, but the anticipated low production volume caused Earl to favor molding the body in fiberglass, a then-new lightweight material ideally suited to

dentifying the need for a small American two-seat sports car to compete with the ever increasingly popular European imports, Harley Earl and a small team of designers secretly created the Corvette and it was rushed into production by June 30, 1953.

Based on a Chevy passenger car chassis, complete with Blue Flame six-cylinder engine and two-speed Powerglide transmission, the

producing the unusually smooth and rounded contours of the new car.

In the best sports car tradition, there were no side windows, the only weather protection being rigid, metal-framed plastic side curtains and a manual canvas convertible top. Its formal debut was held in September at the General Motors Proving Grounds and 50 were delivered by the end of the month. The first cars, all white with red interiors, were allocated to high-volume dealerships for sale to prominent citizens in their communities. Among the latter was John Wayne, who received Corvette number 51 on October 7. The Corvette's price of $3,498 was $1,200 more than a Bel Air convertible, the most expensive "regular" ‘53 Chevy, and $500 more than the Ford Thunderbird introduced a year later.

The 1954 models differed mostly in availability of additional colors. Although Pennant Blue, Sportsman Red and black were added to the palette, Polo White remained the most popular, with four-fifths produced in that color. At the end of the model year, all production shifted to St. Louis. Despite the public's enthusiastic reaction, sales remained low as just 3,640 Corvettes were built in 1954. Meanwhile, Ford's new Thunderbird was selling at more than five times that pace. The introduction of a V-8 engine for 1955 and re-engineering by Zora Arkus-Duntov for extra performance enhanced the Corvette's reputation as America's only true sports car. Still, the 1953-55 models retained the pure

form of the Harley Earl design that turned so many heads at the '53 Motorama and remain much sought-after today.

The 1954 Corvette offered here looks as sensational today as it did 70 years ago. This exceptionally well-restored Corvette is 1 of only 100 cars finished in the highly desirable color of Sportsman Red. This car has less than 1,000 miles on the odometer after a nut-and-bolt restoration. The paint is gorgeous and shines far better than new. The chrome and the trim look spectacular against the deep red paint finish. The upholstery is fabulous and the padding is firm. The dash and door panels are excellent and the steering wheel is in very good condition with only very small stress cracks just beginning to show.

The windshield, side curtain glass and top are in excellent shape. The Corvetteonly spinner wheel covers and wide whitewall tires are like new. The original 235-cubic-inch Blue Flame Six engine and Powerglide transmission are in perfect sync and were rebuilt during the restoration. The underside is detailed and looks magnificent as well.

This fine example has been recently gone through by a collector car service shop to ensure it is in as good of running and driving condition as possible. Seven decades after it left the factory, this rare Sportsman Red Corvette exemplifies the early Harley Earl design that continues to impress car enthusiasts today.

• Most Original Award at the National Monte Carlo Owners Association Annual Meet

F

November of 1969, Motor Trend Magazine tested the Monte Carlo along with the Pontiac Grand Prix and Ford Thunderbird and had this to say, “The Monte Carlo is an unqualified success in every respect… The Monte Carlo has a lot of luxury, a lot of performance and a lot of value packed under its Chevrolet marque.” It was then

irst introduced in the fall of 1969 for the 1970 model year, the Monte Carlo was Chevrolet’s response and contender to the Pontiac Grand Prix. A long hood, short trunk lid, two doors, and lots of luxury touches, the Monte Carlo was a perfect vehicle for the personal-luxury car segment that was growing in America. In

that Chevrolet knew they had a winner and decided to run with it. The Monte Carlo would go through a handful of changes, but the last “true” Monte Carlos would come to an end in the mid-1980s, as they would be discontinued in 1988 until 1995 when a less than thrilling Monte Carlo would be reintroduced.

A true time capsule example, this 1984 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS has lived a very pampered life and enjoyed the company of just three owners since being sold new on September 26, 1983, at Dan McCluskey Chevrolet Inc. of Cincinnati, Ohio. The odometer shows just 7,150 miles, which are verified by the accompanying clean CARFAX® report, actual mileage Indiana title, and impressive condition of this vehicle, inside and out.

When Ohio resident, Mr. Morries, first bought this SS, he knew he wanted a car that would be a collector’s item and one that was used for shows and the occasional weekend cruise. Starting with the color, few shades were offered for ’83 and ’84 so Mr. Morries chose Dark Blue Metallic Code 27L, which proved to be the right choice, as it is believed that just 3,410 other SS models were finished in that color. The next step was picking the options, which he checked

the box for almost all that he could. These extras include dark blue cloth bucket seats, a center console, air-conditioning, tinted glass, power windows, power door locks, an AM/FM stereo system, and a tilt steering wheel, to name a few.

The current and just third owner would purchase this Monte Carlo SS in the fall of 2021 with the same goal in mind as the original owner, to sparingly drive it and ensure it is always stored in a climate-controlled facility. Faithfully maintained, only making the occasional appearance at a local car show, the 5.0-liter four-barrel OHV V-8 engine starts right up and idles smoothly. The next owner will be glad to know that along with this Monte Carlo, they will also get both original window stickers, the original bill of sale, miscellaneous original sales documents, the original “punch-out” keys, and various other documents.

This original and pampered Monte Carlo SS presents its next caretaker with the opportunity to either keep this automobile as a low mileage example, or thoroughly enjoy it as much as they desire. This well-documented Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS is just as stylish and eye-catching today as it was when new in 1984.

factory and coach-built bodies were the order of the day and they were loaded with lots of chrome and fine woodwork. Nestled comfortably within these ranks was the Imperial from Chrysler.

Large, richly appointed, supremely elegant, and powerful are just a few words that describe these cars as their imposing size was more than enough to announce one’s arrival at a social event.

he automobile comes in all sizes and shapes but, at the height of the Classic Era of the 1930s, the road was ruled by some of the largest and grandest cars ever made. This was the time when great names like Stutz, Marmon, Pierce-Arrow, Peerless, Packard, and Duesenberg ruled the road in phaetons, luxurious town cars, dashing roadsters, and sleek convertible coupes. Beautiful

Originally introduced in 1916, the Imperial had reached what many would say was its peak in 1931 and 1932. While several models were offered, it was the CG Imperial that was the flagship of the fleet. Chrysler’s spectacular new motorcar sat atop a massive 145-inch wheelbase chassis, while the body styling featured a distinctly low-slung and rakish appearance. Walter Chrysler and K.T. Keller used the radical Cord L-29 as a benchmark for style, going as far as to hire L-29 designer Alan Leamy away from Cord to help style the Imperial.

This 1931 Imperial CG Convertible Coupe by LeBaron is believed to be 1 of just 10 of its kind built and is wonderfully restored to concours condition. With a massive 145-inch wheelbase chassis, the gorgeous LeBaron styling captures the essence of Chrysler’s vision for the long, low, and sleek Imperial. This example was under single ownership from 1967 to 2020 and is being offered for only the second time in over 50 years. Part of an extensive collection of Classic Era automobiles, this Chrysler benefits from a nut-and-bolt, concours quality restoration that was completed in 2008. It presents in gorgeous maroon with subtle red coach lines, with chrome wire wheels and wide whitewalls enhancing the sporting elegance of the body. The bold, deep-vee radiator with horizontal chrome slats is topped with the Gazelle mascot. Other accessories include dual side-mount spare wheels with chrome cowl lights and a body-colored trunk fitted to a factory trunk rack. The presentation is stunning, with outstanding

paint and excellent brightwork and detailing throughout.

At the heart of the CG Imperial is Chrysler’s “Silverdome” Eight, displacing 384.8 cubic inches and 125 horsepower. In this car, a slightly later CL-series engine is fitted, which essentially is of the same displacement and output as the CG engine. A smooth-shifting four-speed manual with granny low backs the engine. Being well-engineered and well-constructed, it imparted the Imperial with the outstanding road manners for which they are well known. The engine is finely detailed with its bright silver head, topped with chrome hardware and fasteners, befitting of a concours-restored car.

After the restoration was completed, this example was invited to the 2009 Meadowbrook Concours. A true testament to the quality of the restoration, this Imperial was displayed at the 2019 Greenwich Concours and would capture a Best in Class award at the 2020 Boca Raton Concours d’Elegance.

Today’s collectors consider the CG Imperial to be one of the most beautiful cars of the Classic Era, and certainly one of the prettiest Chryslers ever produced.

They are also a favorite among enthusiasts who prefer to drive their vehicles as intended, thanks to the robust straight-line performance and rewarding road manners. Thanks to its body-off-the-frame restoration and fastidious collector care, this 1 of only 10 Imperial CG is a beautifully presented example and arguably one of the most eye-catching offerings from the Classic Era.

delivered to him January 28, 1930, per a copy of its Cadillac Motor Car Company build sheet. However, before the initial delivery, Sally was more than just a rare rush order; she is believed to be the prototype vehicle for the Harley Earl Madame X Cadillac, a tidbit which wouldn’t be discovered until later in her life.

VIN: 610649 n automobile that is seldom seen today, as only four in this variant are rumored to be built and one of only two in existence, this 1930 LaSalle Style 4080 All-Weather Phaeton, which is best known in the hobby as “Sally,” has a fascinating history that many believe begins with it being a rush order for J.M. Wright and

Ordered through a Cincinnati Cadillac dealer, Mr. Wright would take ownership of this LaSalle at the factory on January 28, 1930. Known history would pick up in the mid-1970s when this LaSalle would appear for sale in a Detroit newspaper classified ad. At this point, ownership was now with a retired railroad worker who had stored it in his shed for multiple years, as he did not have the financial means to restore it. Its next owner, Dean Buchanan, would own Sally until 2005 and be responsible for bringing her back to life. Acquiring this LaSalle in 1974, it would stay in his heated garage until 1988 when he decided to embark on a comprehensive body-off-the-frame restoration that would last 14 years.

Buchanan was a husband, father and managing partner of a law firm at the time and was limited with his free time, but he wanted to ensure this restoration was the very best, so he outsourced different parts of the restoration. The engine was overhauled and sent to Brian Joseph of Classic and Exotic Services in Troy, Michigan, the six-wire wheels were sent to none other than Don Sommers and the stripped chassis and body were sent to Jim Nicolson for completion and painting it in its current and correct livery of Bay Tree and Bonaventure Green fenders. In 2000, Sally was taken to Classic and Exotic where the chrome work and various other items were attended to. Once completed, it was delivered to Mark Latuer for the lavish interior to be applied. Once installation of the seats, door panels, carpet and top were completed, Sally was taken back to Classic and Exotics for the finishing touches before making her public debut on the show field.

Sally was shown at the 2002 Bay Harbor Concours where she won Best in Class, which was followed by another Best in Class award at the Meadowbrook

Concours and a Grand National Trophy at the 2002 Cadillac & LaSalle Club National Meet in Dearborn, Michigan, completing an exciting triple crown in a short period of time.

With such excitement surrounding its show debut, many began to draw comparisons to the elusive Madame X Cadillac, as Sally closely resembles the illustrious model. Both carry a Fleetwood body and unique styling cues such as a V-shaped windshield, sliding glass partition, and other features. This led to a deeper dive in research, which started with an interview from 1954 in which Harley Earl said he built the first Madame X Cadillacs on LaSalle chassis. To go along with this, former GM Designer, Dan Holtz, who worked with Harley Earl during these years confirmed to long-term owner, Dean Buchanan, that his LaSalle 4080 All-Weather Phaeton was a prototype design for Earl’s Madame X Cadillac.

After Buchanan’s 21 years of ownership, well-known Texas collector, John O’Quinn, would welcome this special example into his collection. Sally would then be sold along with his estate in 2013, where Richard Muehlmann of Saint Louis would acquire it. Under Mr. Muehlmann’s care, Sally garnered her CCCA Senior badge.

Uniquely fitted with an array of accessories and garnering a historic provenance attached to the famed Harley Earl Madame X Cadillac, this seldom seen and fully restored 1930 LaSalle 4080 All-Weather Phaeton bodied by Fleetwood will certainly be a welcomed addition to many more events and prestigious tours in the future.

he previous Corvette body design was introduced with great fanfare in 1963. The C2 body design only lasted for five years before a total re-style ushered in the Corvette's 'Stingray' era with the 1968 models. In 1970, the Corvette’s styling was slightly revised and featured redesigned side fender vents with a crosshatch grille-type cover. Refinements continued as the fenders were now flared to reduce stone chip damage. If you liked the 1970 model, then you loved the 1971 model. There were very few changes, mainly due to a strike which shortened the production run. Appearance changes were few for 1972, but significantly, it was the last of the true

chrome bumper, front and rear, Corvettes. A bright egg-crate grille was introduced, side fender grilles were functional and this was the last Corvette that the rear window could be removed and stowed, thus making it a coupe.

This highly original 1972 Chevrolet Corvette was sourced by its current owner directly from the original owner. The nearly all-original Daytona Yellow paint shows signs of mellowing and patina as one would expect considering its 50+ year age. The original black interior features leather seats while the dash, console, door panels, and carpet are all in good condition. The original 350-cubic-inch engine and

four-speed manual transmission operate smoothly, making it a pleasure to drive. The odometer reads approximately 54,600 miles and the car feels tight and solid like a low-mileage car should. There is an excellent recorded history documenting the mileage of this Corvette and the car is accompanied by all the original purchase paperwork, Protect-O-Plate, manuals, spare, jack and tire iron. If you appreciate an original car with great verifiable history, this Corvette presents a rare opportunity to acquire an excellent original example of “America’s Sports Car”.

performing and most desirable are the single-year G50 five-speed manual gearbox cars. Only 450 Turbos with the G50 transmission were produced. This rare survivor is among that low number and it’s offered here with matching numbers, low mileage, and in all-original condition. Developed to accommodate FIA Group 4 rules requiring 400 manufactured automobiles, the Turbo became known as “Project

VIN: WP0EB0931KS070367 he Porsche 911 Turbo is one of the most iconic sports cars to ever slap pavement. The Turbo, or Type 930, was the fastest Engine No: 68K00707 German sports car of its time with looks that defined a generation.

Gearbox No: 2K01286 When the Cabriolet was finally released in 1987, the U.S. market was rabid for each one they could get their hands on, but only 540 were produced. During a production reign from 1975 to 1989, the greatest

930,” and the name stuck. It debuted in 1975 with a 3.0-litre Carrera RSR engine that was mated to a KKK turbocharger for considerably more power and top speed. Upon its introduction, it was the first Porsche with a turbocharger and was easily the fastest car on the Autobahn. By 1978, the engine grew to 3.3 litres and an intercooler was implemented for the first time. The inimitable Turbo was styled with a wider stance, provocatively flared wheel arches and a whale tail spoiler; the combination was sheer magic. The aesthetics were not merely for styling; the whale tail spoiler delivered significant downforce and enabled optimal power delivery to the rear wheels. The braking system was also improved with thicker, cross-drilled brake discs that allowed better ventilation and more responsive handling on wet roads. The cockpit was also enhanced with leather upholstery, air-conditioning, and power windows.

Due to strict emission standards in the U.S., the Turbo was not imported to our shores from 1979 to 1984. When it returned, the American market was insatiable and a Cabriolet option, with a power soft top, was produced to satisfy the hungry public. In 1989, the apex and final year of the 930, the turbo was equipped with a five-speed Getrag G50 gearbox and hydraulic clutch. The additional gear allowed smaller rev intervals, which granted the turbocharger more rapid boosts. The hydraulic clutch could be handled with less power, greater precision, quicker starts and enhanced comfort. A mere 540 911 Turbo Cabriolets were manufactured for the U.S. market, while a meager 184 were produced for the rest of the world. Flexible, agile, and fast, this final example delivered 300 horsepower and was capable of a top speed of 160 miles per hour and a 5-second blast from 0 to 60. The most desirable of this generation’s 930 Turbos, this was the last year for the G-series and the

only year offered with the G50 five-speed gearbox.

This particular 1989 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet, Chassis Number WP0EB0931KS070367, is a numbersmatching, all-original example. Robed in the original Guards Red paint over Porsche-crested chrome alloy wheels installed by the dealership, this car flaunts the iconic Turbo in truly original glory. The cockpit boasts an original tan leather interior, with striking black accessories, which exemplifies the result of meticulous care. Complete with original paperwork, window sticker, Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, and a host of complete service records from new, this impressive automobile has extensive optional equipment. This includes limited slip differential, a desirable shorter gear shift lever, California emissions, supple leather seats, a black velour luggage compartment and a steering wheel with a raised hub. Standard equipment for the rare model also boasts heated electric mirrors, air-conditioning, power windows, power locks, power top, an alarm system, and front and rear stabilizer bars. Completed in Stuttgart on November 20, 1988, it was imported through Gaudin Imports in Las Vegas and was sold through Ogner Motorcars in California to Mark Graybill of Agoura, California. The carefully maintained car would find its way onto the concours greens where it was photographed for “Excellence: The Magazine About Porsche” in an article titled, “Concours 1010.”

With only 40,000 original miles, this all-original red beauty has formidably withstood the sands of time. As 1 of only 450 five-speed manuals ever produced for the G-series Turbo and 1 of a mere 540 Cabriolets produced for the U.S., this car is a rare find indeed. Couple that with its matching numbers and all-original condition and you have a holy grail for open-top Porsche enthusiasts.

P

typical product of the eighties or nineties. But you would be wrong. The 914 first hit the road in 1969, the year Nixon became the U.S. President, the first Apollo moon landing took place and the supersonic jet Concorde made its first flight. It remained in production from 1969 to 1976, during which time around 119,000 were made. It was awarded Motor Trend’s Import Car of the Year for 1970 and became Formula One’s first safety car at the

orsche’s 914 was initially a joint venture between Porsche and Volkswagen, debuting in 1969 at Frankfurt's Auto Show. A car of overall simplicity, the 914 in both four- and six-cylinder models had, at the time, revolutionary equipment – a mid-engine layout and an electronic fuel injection system, the latter of which was cutting edge in the then carbureted world. You could take one look at the Porsche 914’s crisp, angular lines and think it was a

1973 Canadian Grand Prix. The 914’s design was thoroughly modern. It was built as a mid-engine two-seater with a targa top - a semi-convertible design which uses a fixed roll bar behind the seats and a ‘roof’ made of removable panels. Mid-engine cars also offered nimble handling and even front-rear weight distribution.

1973 was a big turning point for the 914. A 96-horsepower 2.0-litre engine was introduced and the shift linkage was vastly improved with the “side shifter” transaxle. Standard-trim bumpers were changed from body color to a matte black finish and chrome bumpers were still available with the appearance group option. Front rubber bumper guards were now required by the Department of Transportation. A new, bent handbrake lever replaced the old handle, making it much easier to operate. The VW window lift mechanism was replaced by a much smoother 911-type scissor-style system, along with black-plastic window winder handles. Heavy beams were added inside the door frames for better passenger protection. The public responded to the improvements made for the 1973 model, making it the highest sales volume year. For 1974, a 1.8-litre engine replaced the 1.7 and had a new type of electronic fuel injection called AFC (air flow control), or 'L' Jetronic. This same basic injection was used on 911s in the late ’80s. The standard steel wheels were changed to 5.5-inch-wide silver-painted

VW units. Rubber bumper guards now adorned the rear, and the headlight surrounds were changed from white to black plastic. This 1974 Porsche 914 is finished in Zambezi Green (L64K), over a brown interior and is powered by a 1.8-litre flat-four paired with a five-speed manual transaxle. Features include pop-up headlights, a black removable targa top, black bumpers, a driver’s side mirror, and quad exhaust outlets. The cabin features two-way adjustable bucket seats upholstered in brown vinyl along with color-coordinated door panels and carpeting. Amenities include a heater, a center console, wind-up windows, three-point seatbelts, black custom floor mats, and an upgraded Dual CD stereo with Bluetooth connectivity. Additionally, the interior features an upgraded leather-wrapped three-spoke Luisi steering wheel, VDO instrumentation including a central tachometer, 150-mph speedometer, and a fuel level gauge.

This Porsche 914 has received extensive restoration work and looks fantastic riding on the factory silver 15-inch steel wheels mounted with 195/55 Goodyear all-season tires. With less than 67,400 miles recorded on the odometer, this car runs and drives great, plus it can be brought to a stop quickly thanks to its factory four-wheel disc brake system. Complete with the original jack in the trunk and some extra parts as well, this Porsche is fun to drive, easy to maintain and great on gas.

In the middle were the Eight and Super Eight models, which in 1936 carried fresher styling and were available in many body styles. They both had nearly identical specs, with the main

n the post-Great Depression era, the automakers who survived had done so by utilizing many resources including finding ways to attract new customers and generating multi-levels of models that varied greatly in price. Packard's lower-priced line in the postDepression era was the One-Twenty and was introduced in 1935.

Sales were strong and interest was high with over 55,000 examples

difference being that the Eight cost a bit less and outsold the Super Eight three to one. In keeping with Packard's naming scheme, the 1936 models were the Fourteenth Series, with thirteen skipped presumably for superstitious reasons.

For 1936, Packard offered 58 different body styles and engine configurations, but amongst the top of that list was the model 1407 Formal Sedan, which was powered by a mighty twelve-cylinder engine. In total, only 682 Twelves were built for 1936, making them a rare and highly desirable Full Classic® today.

Offered from 20 years of single ownership, this 1936 Packard Twelve 1407 Formal Sedan benefits from an older body-off-the-frame restoration. The body is finished in the dashing color of Orleans Blue and the black padded top presents very well. Over the years, the paint has matured nicely, only showing a few slight blemishes. A true grand classic, this Formal Sedan body rides on classic wide whitewall tires, which enclose black wire wheels with Packard Twelve hubcaps. Other exterior appointments that accentuate this lavish Packard are Trippe safety lights, a Packard Cormorant hood ornament, dual side-mounted spares with metal covers and side mirrors as well as a folding luggage rack.

The interior upholstery was reconditioned a few years back, as was the carpet, and the cabin is spacious enough to transport six lucky occupants. The front and rear compartments are separated by a roll-up privacy window and the rear cabin is furnished with one jump seat, one compartment door, and footrests, while the driver’s quarters feature a stylish wood-trimmed dash and a factory radio.

As Packard said, “Ask the Man Who Owns One,” and he will agree that this powerful 1936 Packard Twelve is a pleasure to drive, thanks to its smooth and mighty 473-cubic-inch V-12 engine. Converted to a 12-volt electrical system, this Formal Sedan has also been upgraded with power steering and an electric fan, which elevates its already memorable driving experience. Other mechanical notes include factory power vacuum-assisted brakes.

A Classic Car Club of America Full Classic® that has been tastefully upgraded in all the right spots for long-distance touring events, this 1936 Packard Twelve 1407 Formal Sedan would make for a wonderful addition to classic car and Packard Club events around the country and provide a delightful driving experience to and from those events.

to propel the 308GT4 to over 150 mph.

Introduced at the Paris Salon in 1975, the stunningly beautiful 308GTB, Ferrari’s second V-8-engined road car, marked a return to Pininfarina styling following the Bertone-designed 308GT4.

Badged as a ‘proper’ Ferrari rather than a Dino, the newcomer had changed little mechanically apart from a reduction in both wheelbase and weight, retaining its predecessor’s underpinnings

errari’s highly successful V-8-engined road cars began with the 308GT4 of 1973. Originally badged as a Dino, the all-new 308GT4 2+2 superseded the preceding Dino V-6. The new car’s dramatic wedge-shaped styling by Bertone, rather than the customary Pininfarina, was not well-received universally, but the performance of the mid-engine, dual overhead camshaft, 3-litre V-8 certainly was. The latter’s 236-horsepower proved sufficient

and transversely mounted 3-litre quad-cam engine that now featured dry-sump lubrication. In road tune, this superbly engineered power unit produced 255-horsepower, an output good enough to propel the 308GTB to a top speed of 150 mph. Produced initially with glassfiber bodywork - the first time this material had been used for a production Ferrari - the Scaglietti-built 308 used steel after April 1977, while further developments included the introduction of an open-top GTS version with targa-style removable roof, which would become an automotive icon in the wake of the Magnum P.I. television show.

An exhilarating driver’s car and a Ferrari purist’s delight, the 308GTB and its many derivatives proved a huge commercial success for Maranello with over 12,000 sold.

This 308 GTS is known as ‘Friendly’s Ferrari’ because it was purchased new and owned for many years by the legendary collector and founder of Friendly’s Ice Cream, Prestley Blake. Blake purchased the car new in Beverly Hills, California at Hollywood Motors (original bill of sale and sales invoice are included) in March of 1979, choosing to pay for the car in full by check. It was equipped from new with just one factory option, which is air-conditioning. After many years of ownership, Blake sold the car in 1994. The current owner acquired the car from the estate of the second and only other owner of this Ferrari.

With less than 19,200 miles on the odometer, this Ferrari 308 GTS is highly original and in a remarkable state of preservation. The Rosso Corsa Red paint finish is believed to be entirely original with no evidence of rust or accident repair, showing a soft patina that is so desirable in a world full of over-restored Ferraris. The interior is in spectacular original condition as well. Recently, this 308 GTS received a major service by the marque experts at Collector Car Services, which totaled nearly $14,000. The Ferrari servicing was started on December 8, 2023, and completed on February 5, 2024. Accompanying the car are the original window sticker, owner’s manual, fitted matching luggage, tool roll and jack/spare set. Additionally, original welcome letters, recall notices from Ferrari, and extensive service receipts are included in the sale. This 308 GTS is a joy to drive, with light and lively steering, just the right amount of power, and excellent ride quality. It is the quintessential Italian sports car, with a glorious V-8 soundtrack and kart-like handling. It is exceedingly rare to see a Ferrari of this vintage in such exceptionally fine original condition - this fact, along with an impressive dossier of paperwork, recent service records, low mileage and documented ownership history make this Ferrari 308 GTS one of the very best of the breed available anywhere.

1992 Chevrolet Camaro RS Convertible

992 marked the 25th anniversary of the Camaro and the last year for the 3rd Generation Camaro.

1992 also saw the end of Camaros being produced at the Van Nuys plant. The Van Nuys plant was the other original F-Body-only producing plant since the Norwood plant closed at the end of the 1987 model year. After completely disappearing in the secondgeneration Camaro, except for some non-factory conversions, the convertible returned during the third generation. These convertibles were not actually built by GM. Rather, they were conversions of T-top models done by ASC, the American Sunroof Company. The convertible was built in small numbers and is sought-after by collectors today. These were

well-built and reliable cars that many times were used and abused for years by multiple owners, making it difficult to locate a quality original car today.

This stunning 1992 Chevrolet Camaro RS Convertible 25th Anniversary Edition is a time capsule. Carefully driven less than 22,300 miles since it was new, this Camaro is in exceptionally wellpreserved, unrestored original condition inside and out. Finished from the factory in Bright Red, code 81, it has resided in a private collection for years, enjoying a pampered existence away from moisture, dust, UV, and general use. Finding a 1992 Camaro in this condition and with such low mileage is amazing, but locating a RS convertible is rarer still, as this is 1 of

only 2,562 Camaro RS convertible cars produced for the 1992 model year. This Camaro features a host of options and amenities that include 5.0 EFI V-8 engine, automatic transmission, power windows, power door locks, air-conditioning, AM/FM/cassette stereo, cruise control, optional gray cloth custom interior and optional 16-inch alloy wheels. Accompanying the car is the factory window sticker, owner’s manual package and a clean CARFAX® report.

With this Camaro’s great looks, low production, extremely low mileage and remarkable original condition, this pristine 1992 Camaro RS convertible is a rare find for the astute collector.

project to the late and well-known enthusiast Phil Bray of Michigan. Bray subsequently entrusted the project to Lonnie Fallin of Colorado, a longtime CCCA member known for his Packard expertise and restoration prowess. Taking over two years, Mr. Fallin performed a meticulous restoration to bring the car to its current exceptional state.

The magnificent V-12 engine received expert attention from David Dunbar, who made subtle enhancements for improved touring reliability, including Arias pistons, moly rings, modern insert bearings, and other refinements. A Phil Hill 3.58:1 high-speed rear end was installed, enabling the car to cruise effortlessly at modern road speeds.

Bodywork was masterfully handled by Stan Francis of Howard, Colorado, with assistance from Gene Irvine, who supplied new body wood. The final body preparation and paintwork were executed by the well-regarded Colorado shop Color on Wheels, while Auto Weave Upholstery completed the lush red interior. Factory photographs served as references to accurately recreate the pinstriping and stitch patterns, ensuring authenticity and precision throughout the restoration.

Upon completion, the car achieved Senior Premier status in CCCA National judging, including a perfect 100-point score at the 1994 Rocky Mountain Grand Classic. It also earned a class award at the

Packard Experience in Hickory Corners, Michigan.

Additionally, it found success in AACA competition, receiving the national Joseph Parkin Award as the finest Packard exhibited in its division. It continued to be well-maintained in superb condition and was, accordingly, exhibited at the 2002 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. In 2011, this magnificent automobile was purchased by the Academy of Art University Automobile Collection and was a prized possession in the collection until 2023. The panels align beautifully and the interior, particularly the magnificent woodgrain trim, appears very well. The car presents with its AACA award badges from Mr. Fallin’s ownership, and the CCCA badges remain affixed to the car. A small grouping of restoration photographs also accompanies this automobile.

Today, this Packard Twelve stands as an ideal candidate for concours competition or participation in prestigious touring events, including the CCCA’s renowned long-distance CARavans, as it has been diligently cared for since its completion. It epitomizes the elegance of the Classic Era's twelvecylinder Packards, meticulously restored and cared for by enthusiasts who share a deep appreciation for these remarkable automobiles. With its exceptional restoration, it not only upholds the storied Packard name but also embodies the aspirations of discerning collectors.

This second-generation 991 Targa 4 GTS delivers 450 horsepower; once again, it boasts 30 horsepower more than the S, courtesy of extra turbo-oriented tuning. Porsche claims the car will run to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds with the manual transmission and 3.5 seconds with the company’s dual clutch PDK automatic as this car has. Given that Car & Driver magazine ran a 420-HP Targa C4S PDK to 60 in 3.3 seconds, there is no doubt that Porsche’s quoted numbers are seriously conservative. Aside from the hotter engine and the signature dark trim, GTS buyers got the center-lock wheels from the 911 Turbo S in satin black, Porsche’s more aggressive SportDesign front fascia, the Sport Chrono package, and a Sport exhaust. Compared with the lovely, playful rear-drive Carrera, the all-wheel-drive Targa 4 GTS carries a more serious character, both in appearance and performance. The blacked-out trim treatment adds menace to the aesthetic, somewhat offsetting the nostalgic, elegant cheeriness of the classic Targa bar - now painted black, rather than silver as on the previous GTS (and normal Targas). The GTS offers 405 lbs.-ft. and operates at its torque peak between 2,150 and 5,000 rpm.

Additionally, the car has been treated to full-coverage XPEL paint protection and tinted windows. This Porsche has had the best of care and maintenance, and the factory build sheet is included with the car. A 911 Targa 4 GTS is such a treat to drive all the time. The engine is buttery smooth and tremendously powerful, the seven-speed dual-clutch transmission is awesome. That sport exhaust sounds absolutely amazing - raspy, deep, and totally distinctive. The steering is perfectly weighted to be light enough to easily maneuver through parking lots, but with enough heft and feedback to make backroad driving really enjoyable, plus the all-wheel drive and fat tires offer tremendous grip.

Targa-topped cars offer an experience that many love. The steep rake of this 991’s windshield reduces the classic Targa effect to that of a large sunroof, creating minimal wind turbulence in the cockpit for a more enjoyable touring experience for the driver and passenger. With super-low mileage, fastidious care and all the right options, this beautiful black Porsche is exceptional in every way.

From the beginning, silence was golden and smooth-running engines, the use of “valve in head” designs, and build quality have made Buick a trusted marque not only in the U.S. but around the world. Introduced in 1953, the new “Fireball V-8” was a breakthrough design that operated

near vertical positioning that might remind one of a board of nails. In post-war America, Buicks were immediately identifiable by their big chrome grille and bumper assembly as well the famous fender-side Venti-Ports. In 1947, Buick ran an ad that stated, “The car that needs no nameplate.” For those moving up who didn’t want a Cadillac, Buick owners were usually thought well of and these were prestigious automobiles when new. For 1955, Buick promoted itself as being at the “Forefront of Fashion” and “The Thrill of the Year”. Offering 17 different models in four distinct series and on two different wheelbases, the Century was on the smaller 122-inch axle spread, but was powered by the more powerful 322-cubic-inch V-8 rated at a commanding 236 HP. The Century was offered in five body styles starting with the four-door Estate Wagon, popular four-door sedan, two-door Riviera hardtop coupe, the exciting new four-door Riviera hardtop sedan, and the awe-inspiring Model 66C convertible. Again, the copywriters made it clear that the Century was “for those who want spectacular horsepower at a moderate price.” 1955 would be a banner year for Buick with 738,814 units produced, an all-time record at that time; a total of only 5,588 Century Model 66C convertibles were produced. Buick Century managed to win two different NASCAR Grand Champion races and, during Speed Week at Daytona Beach, a pure-stock Century was clocked at over 110 miles per hour.

Dressed in a stylish two-tone combination of silver metallic over Carlsbad Black, this car was treated to an extensive restoration around 2007, and in the next year, the owner took the car to the AACA’s Hershey meet where it was judged and awarded a National First Prize. At about the same time this Buick was completed, another similar Buick was making headlines, a vintage ride owned by Jay Leno, which may have inspired the owner of this Buick to pay tribute to this well-known car collector by finishing his example in like colors. At a Buick Club of America show, the Los Angeles Chapter President of the BCA, snapped a photo of this car and presented a copy to Leno, who was impressed and honored that someone had emulated his ride. As a sign of respect, he autographed another copy of the same photo which was later sent to the owner and is included in this sale. This example is equipped with power steering, power windows, power front seat and power operated top.

The car also boasts windshield washers, a Sonomatic push-button radio, and the “Weather-Warden” heater-defroster. Setting this Buick above the crowd is a spectacular set of bright and shiny Kelsey-Hayes chrome wire wheels fitted with a fresh set of wide whitewall radial tires. Included in the sale are the award verification letters from the AACA, receipts from the restoration and several service manuals for the car. An ideal car for touring or maybe just having a fun ride, this convertible is ready for show or play.

vehicles with fat fenders and lots of horsepower, this was the ideal starting point.

While it is presented today in a matte black finish with some subtle pinstriping details, this was not a simple build. Powering this awesome ride is a GM 5.3-liter Vortec V-8 engine sourced from a 1994 GMC Sierra pickup that was checked through CARFAX®

onsidered one of the first truly “styled” light duty commercial vehicles, the Chevrolet “Advanced Design” trucks have become legends in the world of pickups and panels with many of these machines still in daily use nearly 75 years after they were first introduced. When our consignor discovered this panel, it was a project in progress and being a man who likes to build

and found to have just over 89,000 miles on the clock. When completed, this reborn Chevy was not tucked away and forgotten, for our consignor and his wife took it on many outings to car shows, cruise-ins and occasionally for a special night out.

Described as a strong runner, the well-tuned V-8 starts with ease and slips into gear. Sitting behind the stock steering wheel, in those comfortable hand-crafted custom bucket seats, you will notice that the original instrument openings in the dashboard are fitted with new Dakota Digital gauges. Keeping the interior comfortable year-round is a modern R134A cooling and heating system from Vintage Air. The interior cargo area side walls and entire ceiling have been insulated with generous amounts of sound absorbing materials making sure the only sounds you hear going down the road will be coming from the professionally installed Kenwood stereo system set up for Apple CarPlay and features multiple speakers, as well as a monitor for the back-up camera.

With all the upgrades in electronics, a custom wiring harness from American Autowire was ordered and installed. Helping to keep the windshield clear during nasty weather events is a RainGear two-speed wiper system. No Limit Engineering created the front and rear air-ride suspension, which is fitted with dual compressors and employs components from Air-Lift Performance, a leader in top-shelf quality custom builds. Power-assisted disc brakes were installed up front along with power rack and pinion steering. Riding on a quartet of custom quality smoothie steel wheels is a set of BFGoodrich Silvertown P225/75R X 15 wide whitewall radial tires that makes the perfect contrast to the somewhat sinister look of this one-off street machine.

One of the benefits for business owners of having one of these panel deliveries when new was that the sides made perfect rolling billboards. This distinctive ride offers blank sideboards for you to display your own promotional message on one of the coolest rides ever.

wanted the Road Runner to be done on the cheap, using the base model in Plymouth’s medium-size B-bodied Satellite series, the two-door coupe. Next, it had to be fast and in its basic form, the 335-horsepower, 383-cubic-inch “Wedge” V-8 was plenty potent for most folks. But to leave the competition in the dust, customers could choose the big 440-cubic-inch Magnum V-8

ith the muscle car wars in full swing, the 1968 season saw a new entry that captured more than its share of attention.

Cartoon fans immediately recognized the unique “beep-beep” sound as coming from that lovable cartoon character, the Road Runner. That season, Plymouth performance showed what they were made of and the response was strong. To start with, Chrysler

with 375 horsepower or pull out all the stops with the legendary 426-cubicinch, Hemi V-8 fitted with a dual four-barrel intake and rated officially at 425 horsepower. Customers responded in its first year with 44,599 Road Runners sold, 29,240 coupes; with the late introduction of the hardtop, another 15,359 "beep-beep mobiles" were added to the mix. For 1969, a few styling changes were made for the front grille and the tail and side marker lights, as well as a larger selection of options including the convertible as a third body choice and creature comfort items such as front bucket seats. For those wanting the ultimate in speed and performance, the base coupe was still en vogue, especially when fitted to the mighty Hemi V-8. While the Hemi Road Runner was a formidable opponent for street racing, many of these cars were campaigned on quarter-mile tracks across the country, which led to their scarcity today.

When these muscle cars were new, people did what they were supposed to do with them, run them, enjoy them, occasionally break them (then get new parts to do it all over again), and create motoring history.

When new, this factory Hemi-equipped Road Runner saw time in front of many Christmas Trees waiting for lights to turn green and then it was pedal to the metal for a quarter mile at a time. When it was retired, by some stroke of luck, the original 426-cubic-inch Hemi V-8 had managed to survive and remains under its hood today. Treated to a full restoration that was completed in 2020, it is finished in its original “B5” Bright Blue on the outside and fitted

with the proper black vinyl full-width bench seats up front and to the rear.

Meticulous care was taken during the restoration making sure everything was just as the factory had prepared it, with an eye to authenticity that makes a true muscle car fan’s heart beat a little faster. Under the hood and on top of that numbers matching Hemi is a matched set of proper date coded Carter AFB four-barrel carburetors with the engine backed up by the A833 four-speed manual transmission. Power is then transmitted to the Dana 60 rear axle fitted with 4.10:1 gears. Riding on Firestone Redline tires, they are mounted on a set of color matched steel wheels adorned with the “dog-dish” hubcaps, which shows that this car is meant for one reason – to go fast. Helping authenticate this ride is the original broadcast sheet, and its provenance has been verified by the most trusted source for Mopar performance vehicles, David Wise.

Interior appointments include a push-button AM radio, original gauges and, preserving this car’s heritage, the original padded dashboard was given new life by Just Dashes in California. Another act of preservation was the restoration of the original grille and headlight surrounds by the acknowledged leader for these critical parts with anodized aluminum finishes, Bill Petrow of Special T’s Unlimited. Just 194 Road Runner coupes were fitted with the legendary Hemi V-8 during the 1969 model year. Finding one today, especially a numbersmatching four-speed with its broadcast sheet, is truly a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of performance history.

1978 Porsche 911 SC Targa • Equipped with a recently reconditioned 3.0-litre, flat six-cylinder SC engine • Recently rebuilt 915 five-speed transaxle

• Accompanied by service receipts, owner’s manual, and warranty book

A

protection of a coupé with the targa top fitted, yet retaining the option to quickly stow the roof for open-top enjoyment.

Its signature roll cage “hoop” ensured safety and stability akin to a roll bar. Since its association as a Porsche word, the term “targa” has been borrowed by many competitors and has become synonymous with the part-open roof design. After a brief spell

round the time of its debut in 1963, the Porsche 911 was offered only in closed-roof coupé configuration. This would change in 1967, with the introduction of a now-iconic 911 variant, the Targa. Stuttgart’s new offering was so named to commemorate the firm’s dominance at the famed Targa Florio endurance race in Italy. The partially open roof set-up offered drivers the weather

of 'soft' rear windows, for 1969 a quieter and less leak-prone fixed glass rear window replaced the less than perfect rear convertible top-like material and plastic window, and the ever-popular Targa would continue in this form well into the 1990s, sharing countless mechanical and styling developments with its closed cousin along the way.

In 1978, the Porsche 911 was still only being offered in these two configurations with the cabriolet not making its full debut until 1983. For 911 enthusiasts of the day, attention was focused on Stuttgart’s new power plant, the 3.0-litre Super Carrera “SC” engine. The previous magnesium alloy engine case had been replaced with a cast aluminum unit borrowed from the 911 Turbo. This change solved many of the heat-related issues associated with magnesium cases. The new engine was fed by Bosch’s K-Jetronic fuel injection, commonly referred to as CIS for Continuous Injection System. This combination created a power plant that was almost always mated to Porsche’s five-speed transaxle and rated at 180 horsepower for U.S.-specified examples. The SC continued to wear the wider rear haunches of the previous Carrera models, as well as stiffer anti-roll bars and power disc brakes on all four corners.

This stunning 911 SC Targa, shows only 70,865 miles on the odometer and is finished in an unusual and attractive Sienna Brown Metallic color, making it

stand out in a crowd. The previous owner of this Porsche resided in New Mexico where the climate is ideal for the preservation of cars and made sure this Targa was well cared for. In 2022, the car was sent to a specialist for a major service that entailed removal and disassembly of the engine, cleaning of the pistons and cylinders, replacement of the head studs, and much more. Additionally, the transaxle received a complete rebuild with new clutch and flywheel, followed by some testing and tuning that resulted in making this 911 SC run and drive beautifully. All the work performed is fully documented with receipts that total over $15,000. The mirror-gloss finish of the rarely seen Sienna Brown Metallic paint is accented by the black removable targa top and black centered Fuchs wheels fitted with Michelin Pilot tires. A pair of newly upgraded headlights add to the crisp look of this classic Porsche Targa. The deep black interior looks fantastic thanks in part to new, high quality, correct reproduction black leather front seat upholstery installed in 2023, also documented with receipts. Factory air-conditioning, power windows, and an upgraded stereo add to the driver’s comfort and enjoyment. Extras include more receipts, a large collection of extra OEM parts, parts binder, owner’s manual, and warranty book. Serviced and ready to enjoy, this 911 SC Targa is an excellent choice for anyone that loves Porsches and appreciates a properly maintained machine.

1968 Buick Riviera GS • Rare Gran Sport model • Highly optioned

• Factory optional bucket seats and console • Factory air-conditioning

T

The 1968 Riviera received a major face-lift. Most noticeable was the huge one-piece front bumper, which incorporated hidden headlights and square parking lamps. The parking lights were located at the outer edge of the bumper to define the actual width of the car, since the headlights were located within the grille.

The headlights flipped up as they did in 1966 and 1967; however, they were now vacuum-operated and were much more reliable,

aking on a name already associated with Buick, the Riviera had been a part of the company since the introduction of the hardtop in 1949. Unlike most other GM automotive models, the new 1963 Riviera’s basic body shell and major components weren’t shared with any other models. This could also be said for the 1968 Riviera seen here.

as opposed to being powered by the electric motor used in earlier years. The egg-crate designed grille was split into two sections by the bumper. The rear lip of the hood was extended upwards to hide the windshield wipers. Due to government regulations, side markers were installed for the first time in the front and rear. The rear side markers were circular with a Buick Tri-Shield logo.

The rear bumper was also enlarged with long narrow taillights. The backup lights were also in the bumper but located in lower positions. The gas filler door was moved from behind the license plate to a plain chrome door located in the top center of the rear bumper. A broad chrome rocker panel was optional.

The 430-cubic-inch engine remained the only engine offered including the GS package, which for only $132, added a chrome lid to the air cleaner, 3:42 rear differential and a stiffer handling package. However, handling was improved in all the '68s by lowering the rear-trailing bar for a better center of gravity.

An altitude compensator was added to the transmission to adjust for various altitudes and a controlled combustion system was added to the carburetor to assist with cold weather starting.

This 1968 Riviera was ordered new with the highly desirable Gran Sport option, 1 of just 5,337 GS optioned cars out of the 49,284 Riviera cars produced for the 1968 model year. Buick offered ten standard paint choices with five

Exclusive Riviera colors; this car is finished in a seldom seen and desirable Riviera-exclusive color of Buckskin (code X) with a matching interior. This is a very beautiful Gran Sport that has been properly maintained and exercised by its previous long-term owner. It has a smooth running 430-cubic-inch V-8 engine and automatic transmission, along with power steering and power brakes.

This Riviera GS is incredibly optioned with air-conditioning, power windows, Strato-Bucket seats with console, power driver’s side seat, AM/FM radio with power antenna, tilt steering column and cruise control. Additionally, this car was specified with optional wide rocker moldings and chrome Buick Road Wheels that had been fitted with redline radial tires. The Riviera Club believes that this car as equipped is one of fewer than 500 built.

This Riviera is a terrific example of Buick’s flagship luxury model. Wellmaintained and toured, it was owned by an enthusiast for many years who garaged and took great care of it. It has a gorgeous paint finish and a beautifully preserved and original interior that is inviting and very comfortable. The car runs and drives very well and is accompanied by some extra parts. With great style and comfort, this rare Riviera Gran Sport is as enjoyable to drive as it is to gaze upon.

tonneau cover were all composed of aluminum. The nickname 'Pagoda' was quickly adopted thanks to the slightly concave roof on the optional removable hardtop that resembled a pagoda roof. Although controversial at its introduction, these SLs are now considered a masterpiece of design. Mercedes introduced the third and final iteration of the 'Pagoda', the 280SL, and it then became apparent that some cars don't change, they just get

n the spring of 1963, Mercedes-Benz debuted an all-new roadster to replace the 190SL and 300SL - the 230SL. The 230SL 'Pagoda' was a stunning Paul Bracq designed two-seat convertible that followed Mercedes' new design language, featuring crisp lines and upright headlights. The 230SL was fitted with a prominent three-pointed star in its grille as a reference to the already iconic 300SL. To save on weight, the hood, door skins, trunk lid, and

better. "The Mercedes-Benz 280SL, the latest version of a line that began as the 230SL in 1963, is the same as ever, just better," concluded Road & Track after testing a 280SL in 1968. "For those who value engineering, finesse and high-quality construction, it's alone in the field," enthused the highly respected American motoring magazine, while its manufacturer considered the 280SL: "a Grand Tourer in the traditional sense" and "a unique combination of sports car performance and saloon car comfort (a Mercedes-Benz saloon naturally)."

The 280 featured the same modified W111 chassis with a rear swing axle, independent front suspension, and four-wheel disc brakes. Power came from a 2.8-litre version of Mercedes' robust inline-six and used Bosch fuel injection, a combination producing 160 horsepower in U.S.-market variants, which had to be modified slightly to comply with emissions standards. To compensate, the rear-end ratios were changed in these U.S.-market cars to offer greater low-end acceleration. The 280SL is a very charming and sporty model with capable handling and braking thanks to its suspension and all-wheel disc brakes. These roadsters also have one of the most beautiful bodies produced in the 1960s. Touting a robust inline-six and their luxurious Mercedes interior,

they are wonderful cars to be driven and enjoyed.

The stunning car presented here is finished in the classic silver (DB180) over a highly original red leather interior, neatly matched with red German squareweave carpeting. The crisp, new black convertible top adds great contrast to the silver exterior paint, and the pagoda roof hardtop is finished in body color.

This 1969 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is a two-owner example from new with 57,052 actual miles at the time of cataloging. Offered from single-family ownership and care since 1981, it had been meticulously maintained and lightly used in Florida. Features include a floor-shifted four-speed automatic gearbox, a removable pagoda hardtop and a period-correct AM/FM radio. In addition to an owner's manual, service records and two keys, this 280SL is accompanied by the original roadside jack, tool kit and hard top tool.

This low-mile, two-owner 1969 Mercedes-Benz 280SL offers the buyer an opportunity to own an exceptional and well-preserved example. If one is looking for the perfect all-around car for rallies, shows and Sunday cruising, this just might be the one.

• 1 of only 187 produced and 1 of just 40 examples built for the U.S. market • An important piece of De Tomaso, Shelby, and Dodge Viper history • One of the most historically significant De Tomaso Pantera GT5-Ss extant

I

n the long-storied history of the automobile, many of its greatest creators, designers, and founders of the famed companies have had books, movies, and documentaries made about them. Men like E.L. Cord of the Auburn Automobile Company, designer Harley Earl, and Enzo Ferrari to name just a few. Perhaps no name is mentioned more than Carroll Shelby, a man who was destined to go fast, and everything he touched turned into pure “race-bred gold”. The creator of the feared Shelby Cobra, the man behind the idea for the Le Manswinning Ford GT40, and of course the Shelby-branded Fords, Carroll needs no further introduction. A man who has not had as much attention, but still played a vital role in the development of the automotive landscape, is former Argentine racer, Alejandro de Tomaso. In 1967, De Tomaso debuted the Ford V-8-powered Mangusta (Mongoose), a mid-engine racer for the street to rival the Cobra. In 1970, Ford saw an opportunity to add an exotic sports car brand under its name and not only acquired De Tomaso, but also two of Italy’s finest coachbuilding firms - Ghia and Vignale. Now backed by Ford, the Pantera, an all-new model would be debuted in Modena Italy in March 1970. As time went on, new variants were introduced like the GT5 in 1980, and the pinnacle of the model, the GT5-S in 1985 for the 1986 model year. Noted as being rivals, this special Pantera GT5-S brings together the legendary names of De Tomaso and Shelby, creating a whole new automotive story that is rarely told today.

One of the most historic De Tomaso Pantera GT5-Ss extant, this 1986 example was purchased new by Carroll Shelby of Shelby Automotive Inc. Documented

by Carroll Shelby’s wet signature, purchase documents, Certificato Di Origine

(certificate of origin), original door tag noting Shelby Automobile Inc. According to notes from period Cobra racer Lew Spencer and correspondence from long-time De Tomaso Modena factory representative, Claudia Lodi, Chassis THPNDA09425 was the first of just three GT5-Ss delivered to Shelby. Its rarity is further enhanced as just 40 of the 187 GT5-S models produced from 1986 to 1991 were sent to the United States. Delivered new to Shelby without an engine or transmission, Shelby used THPNDA09425 as a testbed for the later introduced Dodge Viper, using a variety of his own engines and transmissions during his ownership. Being a test vehicle, it is said this example was slightly modified with a hood bump on the cowl in front of the windshield wipers for testing purposes. It is believed this GT5-S is the only one to have this test modification.

The recipient of a documented comprehensive restoration that was completed in 2021, this example was stripped to bare metal and 15 coats of original De Tomaso Red were applied by Perfect Bodies Auto Body of New York, resulting in a truly special appearance and the same livery with which it left the factory. During the restoration, the original Campagnolo 15-inch wheels were powder-coated to the correct gold shade, and new Pirelli P7 Centaurio tires were equipped. An Italian design with American race-bred horsepower, once you get behind the wheel and understand the workings of this exotic sports car, it is best described as controlled chaos on the streets as it is equipped with a 425-horsepower bored .030 D2AE 351-cubic-inch Cleveland V-8 engine that’s mated to a Le Mans GT40 ZF five-speed manual transaxle

with a taller fifth gear and McLeod racing clutch.

Professionally dyno tested and tuned by Kogan Racing, this GT5-S is equipped with a long list of speed parts which include Trickflow power port 60cc aluminum heads, Trickflow track heat single plane aluminum intake with Trickflow gaskets, Ross forged pistons, SCAT forged steel crankshaft, SCAT Pro Series forged I-beam connecting rods, Comp Camps hydraulic roller camshaft and lifters, Holley Terminator EFI system, Flowcooler water pump, and many other parts. Other notable features include a rare factory flat rear wing, original Shelby valve covers, air-conditioning, an Alpine stereo, and power windows.

Prior to restoration, in 2019, this example was invited to the highly exclusive Pantera ‘I Can Drive 55 at Romeo’, which was at the Michigan Proving Grounds and Shelby engine plant. Documented by an array of photos, while at the event this GT5-S had the rare opportunity to track alongside the

second-gen Ford GT prototype and other Panteras.

This example also captured an award across the pond at the prestigious Antwerp Concours d’Elegance in Belgium.

As the old saying goes, “The more we can’t have it, the more we want it,” and this extremely rare Carroll Shelby delivered/owned De Tomaso Pantera GT5-S surely epitomizes that statement. Because this example is the first to be delivered, it is understood that this is the only De Tomaso Pantera GT5-S to be accompanied by original documentation with the Carroll Shelby-certified signature. As the first of just three examples to be delivered directly to Shelby Automobile Inc., documented by extensive paperwork, and wearing a 2021 comprehensive restoration, this Pantera GT5-S is arguably the most significant and desirable example of the mere 187 originally constructed and will grant its next owner entry into a multitude of important events around the globe.

1932 Chevrolet BA Confederate DeLuxe Sport Roadster • Extensive body-off-the-frame restoration • Provenance includes 31 years of single enthusiast ownership

• Well-accessorized and ready for outings and judging • A remarkably well-kept and well-presented example

I

to become one of the most famous automotive designers of all time. Of all the body styles that were offered, the Sport Roadster was considered the most attractive and featured a low-slung, streamlined body with a long hood and short, rounded tail that gave it a memorable and classy look. Even though it was arguably the best looking, the Sport Roadster only represented a mere two

n the early 1930s, the United States was in the midst of the Great Depression. Automobile manufacturers of all makes struggled to stay afloat, and many were forced to reduce production or shut down altogether. Even with this going on, Chevrolet managed to weather the storm with the release of a new automobile, the 1932 Confederate. It was designed by Harley Earl, who would go on

percent of Chevrolet production in 1932.

Riding on a 109-inch wheelbase with 18-inch yellow wire wheels, trumpet horns, chrome door vents on the extended hoods, dual side-mounted spare wheels topped with chrome mirrors, and a tilting windshield with an optional wiper, this 1932 Chevrolet BA Confederate DeLuxe Sport Roadster is considered to be one of the best six-cylinder vehicles of the pre-war era. Before the current owner welcomed this example into his climate-controlled collection, it resided with the same owner for 31 years, from 1987 to 2018. Under the previous owner’s care, this DeLuxe Sport Roadster went through a rigorous body-off-the-frame restoration with strict attention to originality. If you didn’t know, you would expect to learn the restoration just recently took place, but in reality, it occurred in the late 1990s. This is a true testament to the work performed and the care this Confederate has received through the years.

Wearing a Primrose Yellow-like color and black fenders with subtle black pinstriping, the body lines are straight and narrow, and the doors open and close with no catch. Exterior amenities include dual cowl lights, an optional wiper attached to the tilt-out windshield, wind wings, dual-mounted spare tires, a fold-down rear luggage rack with a color-matched trunk, and a rumble seat draped in fine brown leatherette upholstery. The cabin matches the rumble

seat, as the door panels and bench are lined in the same fine brown leatherette upholstery. The dashboard features a speedometer, fuel gauge, oil pressure gauge, water gauge, amperes gauge, and an optional dealer clock. Under the dash, one will find an original genuine Chevrolet heater.

Power is derived from a smooth-operating six-cylinder engine that produces an ample 60 horsepower, which is a major improvement over the previous year’s model, which topped out at just 50 horsepower. The 194-cubic-inch engine is mated to a three-speed manual transmission with a new for 1932 synchromesh system, which makes shifting gears easier. Freewheeling was introduced for the 1932 model year, which can be engaged with the pull of a knob located on the dash.

The 1932 Chevrolet Confederate Roadster was a memorable car that helped define the automobile industry during a difficult time in American history. Its sleek design, impressive performance, and affordable price point made it a popular choice for all drivers. Wearing its wonderful body-off-theframe restoration and ready to be judged at AACA and similar events, this ’32 Confederate Roadster remains a beloved automobile that continues to garner attention among automotive enthusiasts around the country.

previous XKs, and the wing line did not drop as deeply as it had before. Many different color options were also introduced with the XK150, the walnut dashboard used in earlier XKs was replaced with leather trim, and thinner doors allowed for more interior space. A red “reminder light” was added to the parking lights located on top of the fenders which alerted the driver that the

aguar introduced the XK150 in mid-1957 as a response to already-introduced rivals such as the BMW 507 and the Mercedes-Benz 300SL. Initially, the XK150 was only available as a fixed head, or drophead coupé. The XK150 resembled a radically revised version of the XK120 and XK140 family. Most notably, a single-piece windscreen took the place of the split screen used in

headlights were on. Recognizing the popularity of Jaguar’s victories at the Le Mans circuit throughout the 1950s, the XK150 took on a sleeker appearance than its predecessors with a recessed bulkhead and extended hood line. The Jaguar XK150 was a very refined sports car that delivered outstanding performance in a beautiful package.

A wonderful example of a proper British automobile comes this 1958 Jaguar XK150 Fixed Head Coupé. A recipient of a two-year, $100,000 restoration, known history begins with Manhattan native, Daniel Barteluce. The story starts in 1971 when Dan and his wife traded in a recent wedding gift, a 1965 Chevy Van. Using that money, they bought this Jaguar from Daniel's brother-in-law, who had acquired this XK150 from the original owner just a few months before. The feature story in the 2016 Spring issue of the Jaguar Touring Club, Mr. Barteluce recalls the car being in great shape with around 33,000 original miles. It became his daily driver and he found himself driving it all over, noting that the electric overdrive made it a dream on the highway. Eventually having children, and life getting busier, the Jag was stored away in the garage and left there for 30 years until 2012 when he decided it was finally time to bring her back to life.

The painstaking two-year restoration was undertaken by Daryl Beech of Charleston Import Automotive in North Charleston, South Carolina. Ensuring

that everything was done correctly, the final cost would total over $100,000, which is documented by a binder of invoice forms. Finished in Old English White over a lush red interior, the outcome was, and still is, truly stunning. Not only was the appearance brilliant, but the DOHC inline six-cylinder engine and four-speed manual gearbox with overdrive were also completely gone through.

Putting the restoration to the test, Mr. Barteluce entered his pride and joy Jag in the “Cats of the Garden” Jaguar event and captured a Best in Class award in his group, a fitting end to his 46 years of ownership.

During the restoration process, an air-conditioning unit was also equipped under the dash, further elevating its daily drivability anywhere in the country.

Most recently, this Jaguar Fixed Head Coupé’s wire wheels and bumpers were re-chromed and a tune-up of the bushings, and front sway bar, as well as an oil change, took place in December 2023.

The feature cover car of the 2016 Spring Edition of the Jaguar Touring Club publication and documented by a large binder of restoration invoices totaling over $100,000, this ’58 Jaguar XK150 Fixed Head Coupé will surely give its next owner the same pride and joy as it did for Mr. Barteluce during his 40 plus years of ownership.

1949 Wil ys-Overland 4x4 Wagon

W

hen John North Willys originally bought the Overland Automotive Division from the Standard Wheel Company in 1908, he could have never truly imagined what would come of it. From 1912 to 1918, Willys was the second-largest producer of automobiles in the United States, with the Ford Motor Company being number one. Eventually going on a buying spree, John North would create a holding company called the Willys Corporation and own several different automotive brands under it, even buying the old Duesenberg Motors Company plant in Elizabeth, New Jersey. While the dollars spent outpaced the dollars coming in, the Great Depression took full advantage of the Willys Corporation, resulting in selling off most of their companies. After escaping the wrath of the Great Depression, he renamed the company to Willys-Overland

Motors, Inc. and won the bid to begin rapid production of a lightweight reconnaissance car based on a design by American Bantam. Joined by former Chrysler employee, Joseph W. Frazer, and ex-Studebaker Chief Engineer, Delmar “Barney” Ross, the dream team was complete.

Production of the Willys MB, better known as the Jeep, began in 1941 with the help of Ford and American Bantam; that year a total of just 8,598 units were built.

However, before WWII concluded, around 359,851 were built, helping the Allies take a victory yet again.

After the war, the CJ-2A was introduced and was among the first civilian vehicles of any kind to be equipped with four-wheel drive from the factory, forever changing the automotive landscape. A year later, the Wagon was introduced, and by 1948, it was available with four-wheel drive, making it one of the ancestors

of all sport utility vehicles.

A sporty example of the loved Wagon, this 1949 WillysOverland Wagon is the recipient of a body-off-the-frame restoration that took place some years ago. Equipped with four-wheel drive and a fine-tuned 134-cubic-inch inline four-cylinder engine, it’s ready for on-road or off-road enjoyment. A nice and even maroon exterior is complemented by a simulated wood-like yellow trim around the doors and windows. The doors open and close without catch, and the appearance is that of a true classic off-road vehicle. The interior features newly upholstered seats, and a spare wheel tucked in the rear.

Nicely restored both aesthetically and mechanically, all that’s left to do with this classic four-wheel drive example is to hop in, turn the key, and thoroughly enjoy it.

With its futuristic design and cutting-edge features, the Cybertruck represents a paradigm shift in automotive design, reflecting Musk’s unyielding determination to create vehicles that not only redefine expectations but also bring the cars of the future to the present.

lon Musk, one of the richest men on earth and the visionary behind Tesla, is known for a lot of things, but at the top is his relentless pursuit of innovation and his unwavering trust in betting on himself. Musk’s journey began as a response to the need for sustainable transportation solutions, drawing inspiration from his passion for technological advancement and a desire to challenge conventional norms.

Costing an extra $20,000, the Foundation package includes laser-etched badging, white interior trim with a neon light bar, all-wheel drive, and the technologically advanced full selfdriving capability mode. Featuring stainless-steel and an angular body, the Tesla Cybertruck is unlike anything else on the planet and one that catches attention wherever it’s driven, whether on the public streets or in a remote forest with the animals. It’s safe to say, quite literally, that no one can take their eyes off of it. Factory-rated at 600 horsepower, the dual motors send power to all four 20-inch cyber wheels via an automatic transmission. The estimated range on a full charge is 340 miles, and when in a pinch, one can recover up to 136 miles of range with just 15 minutes of supercharging. Built to conquer any planet, according to Tesla, the armored glass is shatter-resistant and can resist the impact of a baseball at 70 mph or class 4 hail. The full-length roof panel is constructed with impact-resistant acoustic glass as well, making the cabin as quiet as outer space, Elon Musk would say.

A simplistic but futuristic design, the cabin has hidden features throughout. Marketed as a theater on wheels, all the controls are either on the steering wheel or the all-new 18.5-inch infinity touchscreen.

The rear is equipped with a 9.4-inch screen that can play Netflix and surf the web, just like the

front. Set up with studio sound dynamics, there are 15 speakers placed in the cabin, including two dedicated subwoofers and distributed amplifiers, which are further enhanced by the previously mentioned acoustic glass. Other interior features include heated and ventilated front seats trimmed in black and white piping, and the Foundation Series’ specified white upholstery on the dashboard and door panel inserts, heated rear seats, wireless charging pads, USB ports, and 110-volt outlets.

More than just eye candy that goes fast and lets you play video games on the screens, this Cybertruck will meet your needs out in the field or on the job site. Weighing in at 6,603 pounds, this AWD Cybertruck’s enclosed cargo bed measures 56.2 cubic feet and has a reported 2,500-pound payload. Most impressive is the towing capacity, which is rated at 11,000 pounds, and actually beats out the 2024 Ford F-150, 2024 Nissan Titan, 2025 Ram 1500, and the 2024 Ford F-150 Lightning. One can only imagine Elon Musk snubbing the Big Three and those who doubted him.

It is a fact in collecting and investing, the first is always desirable and rise in value.

500 cars a year in a range of open and closed body configurations.

These electric cars found popularity among the rich and wealthy due to their ease of driving, quiet operation, and capacity for carrying heavy coachwork with multiple passengers, thanks to high-torque motors. With the rise of the self-starter gasoline cars, Rauch & Lang's sales began to decline, so in 1915 the company merged with Cleveland, Ohio competitor, Baker Electric, and

auch & Lang, a company based in Cleveland, Ohio, had its roots in the carriage trade, established in 1884 by Jacob Rauch and Charles Lang. Specializing in high-quality horse-drawn carriages, their products were known for their prestige and higher cost. In 1903, the company took its first step into the realm of “horseless carriages” by acquiring a Buffalo electric motor and controller supplier, Hertner Electric. By 1908, Rauch & Lang was producing

continued to offer several passenger models under the Rauch & Lang brand.

However, in 1920, their electric car business was acquired by the Stevens-Duryea Company, and the production of Rauch & Lang’s electric cars was moved to a new factory, where they started manufacturing taxis with both petrol and electric powertrains. While petrol-powered cabs proved more successful, the demand for electric vehicles waned. By 1929, Rauch & Lang made one final push, experimenting with a petrol/electric hybrid vehicle in collaboration with General Electric, but the Wall Street Crash of October 1929 would deal a fatal blow to Rauch & Lang, resulting in their downfall. An early pioneer in green energy and the electric car market that is evident today, this 1916 Rauch & Lang BX6 Brougham is a rare and seldom seen surviving example as a mere 1,000 were built, and very few survive today. This car’s 92-inch wheelbase and handsome, fully enclosed Brougham coachwork make it a Model BX6.

At $2,800 new, it was more than eight times the cost of a Model T runabout.

Finished in an attractive two-tone blue and black color scheme, this Rauch & Lang benefits from an older restoration with authentic, period-correct details.

Fittings include nickel-rimmed headlights, twin cowl lamps, and artillery wheels with black tires, providing a charming overall aesthetic. The appearance is truly captivating and leaves onlookers wondering how this automobile was

constructed and engineered over 100 years ago, especially since it emits such a quiet sound strolling down the road.

The cabin is trimmed in fabulous blue fabric with brocade accents, and features 'parlor style' seating for four, made possible by the electric’s lack of a traditional dash panel. The driver sits on the rear bench and steers via the folding tiller, facing one swiveling chair and one fixed individual rear-facing chair. Additional controls for throttle, brake, and reverse selection are within easy reach of the driver. The soft trim is excellent, with taut fabric displaying minimal indications of use. Additional features include a delightful instrument cluster with Rauch & Lang-branded amp-hours gauge, a Warner Auto-Meter to monitor speed and mileage, and Weston amp and volt meters. Like most early electric cars, this Rauch & Lang is delightfully simple to run and drive. The front and rear compartments house an array of batteries, which feed a single motor driving the rear wheels.

Way ahead of its time, as well as the EV craze seen today, this restored 1916 Rauch & Lang BX6 Electric Brougham is a true testament to innovation during the progressive era and one that set the standard for almost all EV automobiles to follow.

nearly totaled. While the chassis and drivetrain survived, the rear end of the car was pretty much wasted. In hopes of bringing his coupe back to life, Russo turned to John Riedel, owner of Custom Corvette Enterprises located in Babylon, New York, with hopes of bringing his baby back to life. Known in the Corvette

onsidered one of the most iconic custom Corvettes from the 1970s, the GT Three-Window 'Shark' started out as a factory original 454-cid, four-speed pavement-pounding machine right out of the box. It was the pride and joy of New York owner Vinnie Russo. That is until around 1975, when the Stingray was

world as the largest provider at the time of aftermarket fiberglass panels for Corvettes, this project would be given carte blanche to create a handsome vehicle that would end up being a show winning car that would become a bit of a trendsetter in its own right. First, with the help of Joel Rosen, founder and owner of Motion Performance, creators of the legendary Baldwin Motion Chevrolets, the original 454 V-8 was removed to be totally rebuilt. It was decided to convert this big block monster into the legendary 427 through the installation of a crankshaft from a 396-cid V-8, as well as numerous other performance oriented modifications that would give this Corvette even more get up and go than when it left the factory. The main focus for this reconstruction was the extensive amount of bodywork needed, especially for the rear of the car.

Up front, the hideaway headlights, a Corvette standard since the 1963 Stingray, were deleted and a custom housing was created for the new style lights. The grille opening below the bumper was enlarged a bit and a total redesign of the hood with a streamlined air scoop was incorporated. Due to the damage from the rear-end accident, the T-top portion of the roof had to be restored and, for the main event, a total redesign for the coupe’s rear backlight. A pillared fastback design featured a beautifully tapered back glass with innovative hand-crafted side windows. The final effect reflected the original Stingray roof design with the quarter panel wheel openings flared to accept a set of extra-wide rear tires. With the bodywork completed, Riedel then applied a pure white coat of paint and then a center stripe of gold metallic with a similar application of gold to the side panels. A set of True-Spoke wire wheels with BFGoodrich radial

tires were installed along with a pair of custom chrome plated side pipes that looked cool and sounded great. A hand-stitched custom black tufted leather was installed and updated electronics were fitted as needed. During the late 1970s, Russo campaigned this car and took numerous awards whenever it was shown and, in March 1977, it would be the cover car for Cars Hi-Performance & Custom magazine, with a feature article on its build and unique features.

By the early 1980s, this awesome Corvette was retired from the show circuit, stored away and forgotten. That is until our consignor acquired the GT Shark Corvette and once again brought it back to life. With the help of Florida-based Charles Lawson and his unique restoration talents, the Corvette would roar once again with the finished project recapturing those heady custom-car days from nearly 50 years ago when the GT Shark defined style, comfort, and performance. The drivetrain retains its original numbers matching 454 block, sporting all the Motion Performance modifications, and the bodywork has been returned to the perfect blend of style and beauty it had when first created.

Presented as a milk and honey finish, the custom black leather interior has been revived and, with a pretty healthy investment, the original True-Spoke wire wheels were restored back to their original deep reflective finish and today wear a fresh set of BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires. This unique Corvette has not been seen on the show circuit for decades and with its fresh restoration and historic past, this GT Shark Three-Window Corvette is sure to be an attention getter wherever it is shown.

Most recently under his ownership, the brakes were serviced and the body was resprayed in its two-tone silver over black, which is divided by a charming red pinstripe that runs the belt line. Matching the same color scheme of the body are the disc “RR” branded wheels, which are encapsulated by Firestone wide whitewall tires.

placing the leaf springs above or beside the frame with the axle suspended from them. Assisting on the project was Harry C. Stutz who worked on the design of the rear transaxle which added to the low silhouette of the car; this was before Stutz would leave American in 1907 and start his own automotive company. For 1912, The American Automobile Company offered three basic lines:

ounded in 1906, The American Automobile Company of Indianapolis, Indiana, in its brief eight-year history, produced a variety of cars, although none are more highly regarded or memorable as their revolutionary Underslung models. Starting with a clean sheet for design, Fred Tone came up with a totally new idea, basically flipping the chassis upside down and

Traveler, Tourist and Scout. With prices starting at $1,250, these cars offered a lot of bang for those hard-earned dollars. The Scout’s engine had plenty of pep to drive these cars over almost any terrain and were reported to be quite nimble and responsive on the few good roads that existed, and resilient to getting bogged down on the bad roads found almost everywhere. As with most early car makers, their smaller introductory models helped build their reputations.

These would lead to the development of bigger and more powerful machines, which in turn would hopefully generate larger revenues and higher profits. As popular and reliable as Underslungs were, the hoped-for well-heeled customers looked to more conventional and less expensive makes and models for their basic transportation needs and, in 1914, The American Automobile Company filed for bankruptcy seeing their assets sold off before the end of the year.

Unfortunately, time forgot these beautiful cars and during two world wars, the price of scrap, especially brass, meant many of these pioneering vehicles would be sacrificed in the name of freedom.

A recipient of a documented and carefully planned restoration, this 1913 American Underslung Tourist is a beacon from the past and what many would consider the first American “sports car”. Formerly of the Bob and Ruth Toney Collection in Merced, California, this Underslung was sold to a private collector

in the early 2000s as a rolling chassis. Wanting to bring it back to life and its former glory, a tedious historical research endeavor began in order to ensure that each part of the body was recreated correctly and mirrored its original form.

Executed by Honest Charley Garage in Chattanooga, Tennessee, a well-known and highly respected builder and restorer, the outcome was truly stunning and well worth the long days that trickled into the many long nights. At this same time, a correct 48-horsepower T-head inline four-cylinder engine and four-speed manual transmission were properly fitted.

Completed in 2008, this Underslung Tourist would garner its AACA National First Prize and Senior Award badge in the same year. Its award-winning appearance would continue at the 2013 AACA Hershey meet where it won the National Chocolate Town Trophy; it was also part of the Underslung display at the 2014 Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance and it captured Best of Show for an American car at the 2017 Keels & Wheels Concours d’Elegance.

Having been carefully maintained since being completed, the mechanicals and bodywork are in wonderful shape and offer the next caretaker a distinctive opportunity to acquire a seldom seen American-made automobile that will grant them access to events around the country and add a flavor of pre-'20s panache to their collection.

E

arly fourth-generation Chevrolet Camaros are becoming popular with collectors, and for good reason. Introduced in 1993, and continuing through 2002, they offered a lot of improvements from the previous generation, which dated back to the depths of the malaise era. The interiors were greatly modernized. The Z28 option brought an LT1 350-cubic-inch engine with 275 horsepower, while an optional six-speed manual transmission lowered engine revs on the freeway, making real-world fuel economy in the mid-20-miles per gallon attainable.

The new body used a combination of a steel unibody with light, rust-free, and dent-resistant composite body panels. The rear fenders were structural steel, and the doors and front fenders were plastic. The SS trim option became available in 1996 and included

the functional hood scoop and a horsepower bump to 305, along with upgraded suspension. The aggressive styling and upgraded performance of the Z28 SS likely makes these cars the most desirable from a collectability standpoint.

This car is an even rarer 1997 30th Anniversary SS coupe. Anniversary models were white with orange stripes and could be had with either houndstooth cloth combination reminiscent of some firstgeneration Camaros or optional white leather seats as this car has. Optional factory equipment includes smoked glass T-top removable roof panels, AM/FM/ CD player, power driver’s seat, rear defogger and 16-inch wheels. Special SLP engineering factoryauthorized modifications are the icing on the cake for Camaro performance enthusiasts. SLP options

on this Camaro include Performance Exhaust, Oil Cooler Package, SS logo floor mats, and the highly desirable Auburn High-Torque Performance LimitedSlip Differential with AAM aluminum cooling cover.

The condition of this rare Camaro is remarkable.

In a report filed by Club Delahaye historians, chassis number 800319 is one of nine Worblaufenbodied Delahayes known to exist today. While early history is not known, it was likely sold to a Swiss owner considering the choice of coachwork. In the early 1990s, it was owned by known marque enthusiast James Bandy of Oakdale, Pennsylvania.

Mr. Bandy was a past American soldier who was based in France during WWII and fell in love with the Delahaye marque, as he was an owner of multiple examples in his lifetime. He would place an advert in the French newspaper, La Vie de I’Auto with pictures, stating chassis 800319 was correct and in complete condition. It was subsequently restored in the mid to late ‘90s in an American restoration shop for Mr. John McDonald, who traded it to the next caretaker in the late 1990s. Today this Swiss-bodied Delahaye is in lovely condition with a well-preserved restoration.

Some subtle alterations were made to the design during its restoration, with notable elements including low-mounted Marchal headlamps, rear wheel spats, and polished body side trim. These

touches were inspired by similar Worblaufen designs used on Alfa Romeo chassis and highlight its graceful, curvaceous lines. Gorgeous, ventilated wheel covers and blackwall tires provide the perfect finishing touch to this sporting Drophead Coupé.

Displaying a brilliant finish of dark metallic blue paint and brightwork, this 135M is eye-catching from every angle. Worblaufen coachwork is highly regarded for its impressive quality, which is apparent throughout this marvelous automobile.

The lovely interior offers plenty of room for four passengers. Like the exterior, the soft trim is wellpreserved since its restoration and presents in excellent condition with attractive taupe-colored upholstery piped in blue, matching light tan carpets, and a woodgrain instrument panel. Switches and controls are in working order, including the correct O.S. dials and a three-spoke banjo steering wheel.

The side-hinged hood opens to reveal the periodcorrect OHV inline-six engine equipped with triple carburetors and backed by a four-speed Cotal pre-select gearbox. Club experts believe this car originally had the preferred three-carburetor “MS” engine, making the current unit true to its original specs. The engine bay is well-detailed and tidy. It runs well and is ideally suited for further preparation for touring and road events.

Of the approximately 45 known examples with Worblaufen coachwork, this marvelous Delahaye is certainly one of the standouts. It is a beautiful machine that combines the best of Swiss aesthetics and sporty French underpinnings in a beautifully crafted package.

1951 Lincoln Lido Club Coupe • Rare Lido model with distinguishing trim features • Large-displacement “8EL” variant of the classic flathead V-8 engine

• Automatic transmission and radio • Handsome period-correct color scheme • Welcome at Lincoln Continental Owners Club events

A

yet effective brightwork. Ample power was delivered by a new 337-cubic-inch flathead Ford V-8 engine producing over 150 HP and the new Lincolns could now easily exceed 100 mph on command. A GM-sourced Hydra-Matic four-speed automatic transmission was optional equipment by 1951. Among today’s knowledgeable collectors, the 1949-51 Lincolns are recognized as

s Lincoln’s first new postwar models, the 1949-51 series featured the modern envelope body styling theme shared with Ford Motor Company’s upmarket Mercury lineup, but on a longer-wheelbase chassis yielding greater passenger space.

Fresh styling cues included frenched head and tail lights, a wide low-profile grille, low roofline, rear-fender skirts, and restrained,

luxurious, quiet, high-quality automobiles capable of covering long distances almost effortlessly. In addition to scoring a creditable ninth-place finish in the first edition of the deadly Carrera Panamericana Road race in 1950, the 1949-51 Lincolns also remain famous for their high-profile White House service.

On July 5, 1950, the Lincoln Lido was introduced as somewhat of Lincoln's answer to the GM hardtops that had debuted in 1949. List price for the 1950 model was $2,721. It was similar to the Mercury Monterey and the up-market Lincoln Cosmopolitan Capri coupes. Both years of the Lido featured a vinyl or canvas-covered roof, fender skirts, bright roof drip rails and rocker panel moldings, dual door mirrors, a gold-colored hood ornament from the Cosmopolitan and a specially trimmed custom interior with special door and side panels. An electric clock was standard.

Offered for only two model years, 1950-51, the Lido was a stylish and elegant car. Just 4,482 Club Coupes were produced in all for 1951, with an unknown number of Lidos among them, fewer than 25 percent, according to expert estimates. Lincoln promotional literature described its 1951 upscale coupe offering this way: “Few motor cars have ever been so pleasingly customized as the 1951 Lincoln Lido”. Known internally as Type 72C, the Lincoln Lido has

distinguished itself from other models with its unique trim and roof covering and are sought-after collectables today. This exceptionally attractive and rare 1951 Lincoln Lido Club Coupe continues to benefit from a high-level restoration completed under a previous owner circa 2009. Handsomely finished in Brewster Green and accented by a white vinyl roof covering and tan cloth interior, the Lido is highly equipped to match its captivating style with options including a Hydra-Matic four-speed automatic transmission, AM radio, fender skirts, and benefits from an upgraded 12-volt electrical system. Correct steel wheels mount full-diameter bright hubcaps and 1950s-style wide whitewall tires. In addition to a spare wheel and tire, roadside jack, and owner’s manual, this exceptionally rare and attractive Lincoln is accompanied by three keys plus service records.

A wonderful example of one of the most stylish and well-equipped American luxury cars of its era, this rare and beautifully presented 1951 Lincoln Lido offers an excellent opportunity to acquire one of the finest automobiles of the early 1950s. Lincoln offered the Lido special edition only during the 1950 and 1951 model years, making it a rare sight today. At home on the show field as it is on a tour, this example is equally prepared to provide miles of pleasure on the open road.

• Pinnacle of American luxury in 1958, built to compete directly with European luxury marques

Cadillac model for 1958. From a profit perspective, 1958 was hardly the kind of year that was expected for Cadillac, but design-wise, the “Tri-Five” Cadillacs are among the most recognizable and valuable American cars of the era. Up front, massive bumpers and quad headlamps became the norm, along with a larger and wider

958 was a tough year for the U.S. auto industry, with the United States' automotive economy suffering from a slight recession which stifled sales for the first time since World War II. For Cadillac, that downturn resulted in the GM marque selling 25,000 fewer units in 1958 than the previous year, even after redesigning every

grille accented by cylindrical ''cleats'' that connected horizontal and vertical cross-members. Down the sides, the trim became more refined and featured five horizontal wind splints ahead of the rear wheel housings, and the huge ’57 tailfins were a bit less pronounced, with the rear bumper retaining its split design. Sitting atop Cadillac's convertible hierarchy was the Eldorado Biarritz, sporting elevated trim and improved standard features. Production totaled just 815 units, with a base price of $7,500 for the 223-inch-long luxury convertible.

It remains an iconic ‘50s luxury car to this day, with perhaps only a Lincoln Continental Mark II as any worthy American-made competition.

While early ownership history is unknown, it is known that this Biarritz resided with the same family for an astonishing 43 years, from 1973 to 2016. Under their ownership, this Biarritz became the recipient of a comprehensive restoration that took place in the mid-2000s and still presents well today. Since leaving its longtime stewardship in 2016, it has enjoyed the care of enthusiasts and has been faithfully maintained and lovingly exercised.

As 1 of just 815 examples produced for the 1958 model year, its rarity is furthered by its Argyle Blue color, as it was a choice reserved only for the Eldorado as many owners opted for white or red. Accentuating its exterior appearance, this classic ‘50s winged cruiser rides on a set of Sabre wheels wrapped in classic wide whitewall tires and is topped off with a blue Haartz

cloth power convertible top.

The interior of this rare Eldo Biarritz is just as gorgeous as the exterior, as the front and rear bench seats have been reupholstered in beautiful blue leather.

The matching blue dash, upholstered door panels, blue carpeting, and steering wheel are all in wonderful condition and appear to be in stock configuration.

As one of the top luxury cars of the ‘50s, it is fitted with an array of features throughout, which include power steering, power brakes, power windows, a power front seat, color-matched parade boot, and a then-revolutionary Autronic Eye which would automatically dim your bright headlamps when another car approached.

Known as the “King of the Road” for the ‘50s, it’s only fitting that the powerplant matches the prestige of the rest of the car. Under the hood is a 365-cubic-inch V-8 engine topped with a four-barrel carburetor that was reported to push out 310 horsepower when new. Backed by a Hydra-Matic automatic transmission, and with the help of power steering, just about anyone can take this ‘50s cruiser for a spin around town.

Designed by Harley Earl, one of the most memorable designers of all time, and marked as one of the last years for the over-the-top tailfins, this lovely Argyle Blue ’58 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz is ready to treat its next caretaker with the very best that American luxury had to offer in the ‘50s.

1957 Ford Thunderbird Convertible • Body-off-the-frame restoration by T-Bird expert, Ray Dellumo • 312-cid Y-block V-8 engine pushes 245 HP with the Holley four-barrel carburetor

• Ice cold air-conditioning • Both hard and soft tops included on this investment grade example

T

Highly optioned and delivered with both hard and soft tops, finding a car from the last year of the first-generation T-Bird ticks all the boxes for desirability and value.

The Thunderbirds in Ford showrooms for 1957 carried a number of significant changes with a larger grille, sleek new bumpers, and a lengthened trunk. Subtle tail fins were a sneak preview

he 1955 Thunderbird was a winner from the start. First conceived to challenge the Corvette, the iconic Thunderbird made its debut in October of 1954, and was one of the first models produced with the new overhead valve V-8 engine. It was well received, and immediately won the sales war with the Vette thanks to plenty of power and a far more luxurious and refined package.

of what was to come, and the ‘Bird sat a bit lower with new 14” wheels. New upholstery patterns and a cool new round-dial instrument cluster highlight the classic interior. Mix in a myriad of engine options, and it’s no wonder the ’57 ‘Birds sold well, and today, are the most collectible of all the great Thunderbirds.

This lovely ‘Bird was comprehensively restored recently by Ray Dellumo and the experts at “Ray’s Thunderbird Garage”, who have added only test and finetuning miles since completion. It is nicely equipped with the 312-cubic-inch V-8 engine, Holley four-barrel carburetor, three-speed Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission, and factory power steering. You will enjoy 245-horsepower performance, along with factory hydraulic brakes to reel it in. As you would expect, the engine bay is highly detailed, completely accurate, and it will be a pleasure for the new owner to pop this hood at any car show or concours they choose to attend. Five true Thunderbird factory wire wheels finish the ultra-clean factory look. This is certainly a car that would be welcomed into any Thunderbird Club or AACA judging event for its highly accurate restoration and clean condition.

The panel fit and finish is outstanding and highly accurate, with clean

chrome and trim throughout. The underside of this car is highly detailed and in impeccable condition. The removable hard top with “porthole” windows is also excellent; from top to bottom, it is readily apparent that this car was restored

by T-Bird specialists. Meticulously cared for and stored in a climate-controlled facility ever since, it remains today in pristine condition and ready to be enjoyed.

The owner will enjoy factory power windows and power seats, along with ice cold air-conditioning. Hardtop, soft top, or no top, this lovely Thunderbird is a capable cruiser that will always receive attention from enthusiasts no matter where you drive it.

The last two-seat Thunderbird was built on December 13, 1957, only to be replaced by the four-seat square ‘Birds, making the opportunity to buy a fresh, test-miles-only original T-Bird in this immaculate condition a true “no-brainer” for any collector. With a flawless body and paint job, and the desirable Y-block V-8 with a Holley four-barrel carb, it is simply the ultimate Thunderbird of the era. And, just like the Beach Boys sang about, you could be the one having “fun, fun, fun” cruising the strip or hanging at the beach.

1972 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Coupe • Amazingly only 7,750 miles on the odometer • Original LT1 255-HP, 350-cid V-8 engine • Correct M22 four-speed transmission

• Equipped with power steering and front disc brakes • Featuring original and proper Z28 wheels • A spectacular preservation example with Protect-O-Plate

T

Another major issue for the 1972 Camaro was an extended 174-day strike at the Norwood, Ohio facility. When the strike was over, GM had to scrap over 1,100 Camaros that had been on the assembly line when the strike was called due to safety concerns and some changes in mandatory equipment requirements. As a result of the labor actions, just 68,656 Camaros for 1972 would be produced,

he second generation of Camaros from 1970 to 1981 enjoyed tremendous success, but the road wasn’t always smooth and the future of Camaro wasn’t always a sure thing. During 1972, Camaro had to withstand several setbacks, one of which was convincing those who had a desire for high horsepower that their engines were still formidable beasts due to new regulations.

only 2,575 of those assembled with the Z28 package.

Those lucky enough to order and receive one of these mean machines found the exclusive LT1, “Turbo Fire 350” a 225 “net” HP, 350-cubic-inch V-8 that was available with a choice of transmissions. Exterior appointments included Twin Rally stripes applied to the massive hood and the full width rear deck spoiler.

The Z28 was the only Camaro that came with 15” wheels, which were sporty Mag-style in dark pewter gray with bright chromed center hubcaps, wearing top quality F70 X 15” radial tires that would grip the road even under hard driving conditions. These cars were a bit of a status symbol and let people know what you were driving with Z28 badges placed prominently up front on the unique blacked-out grille, on both front fender sides and centered on the rear deck lid.

Under the hood, the potent mill was fitted with finned aluminum valve covers partnered up with a chrome air cleaner, special flex fan, and heavy-duty items like the radiator, engine mounts and starter. Full instrumentation was essential for those demanding performance with the Z28 fitted with an ammeter, clock, and oil pressure gauges plus the all-important 7,000 RPM tachometer. The price for the Z28 option was reasonable for the time at just under $600, and a long list of other accessories could also be ordered to individualize each of these Camaro coupes.

Showing just a bit over 7,750 miles on the odometer, this beautiful example is finished in its Mojave Gold with twin white rally stripes, while the ultra-clean

interior sports the light tan vinyl hi-back bucket seats featuring built in headrests.

This example was a bare-bones ride with performance in mind as it is fitted the M21 close-ratio four-speed manual transmission rather than an automatic.

The cleanly designed, curved instrument cluster features the speedometer and tachometer mounted side-by-side, surrounded by the four gauges which are clean and functional. Mounted in the center dash is the base push-button AM radio. Always maintained and protected with kid gloves, this sweet Z28 comes with its original dealer invoice and other important documents plus the coveted Protect-O-Plate. Under the hood, the original engine looks fresh and new with improved handling coming from power steering, the heavy-duty suspension, stiff rear stabilizer bar, and power-assisted disc brakes up front and proven drum brakes to the rear for sure-footed stopping. Riding on a set of what appear to be proper vintage Firestone F60 X 15 Wide Oval raised white letter tires, the Z28 exclusive Mag style wheels look like it is 1972 all over again.

The LT1 roars to life with the turn of a key as the dual exhaust delivers a throaty roar of all-American horsepower.

This Z28 has spent many years in the hands of private collectors stored in climate-controlled environments, preserved for future generations to admire.

An old saying in the collector-car world is “They are original only once,” and this might be your opportunity to own an authentic Z28 Camaro that restorers can only dream of replicating.

Custom Coachwork by Darrin This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com VIN: C507382F

1940 Packard Darrin Custom Super Eight 180 Convertible Sedan • 1 of only 10 known surviving examples • CCCA Premier Award winner; Shown at the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance

• 1990s concours restoration overseen by Howard “Dutch” Darrin • A resident of multiple prolific collections including Otis Chandler and Richard Kughn

I

Super Eight One-Eighty Convertible Sedan a rare and seldomseen automobile.

Known history of this custom coachwork Packard began when it was delivered new to a Packard dealer in Evanston, Illinois, per its firewall tag. Retailing for a staggering $6,300, it was purchased

n a report filed by some of the top Packard historians in the country, like Richard Langworth, Bob Turnquist, and Don Figone, fewer than 150 Packard Darrins were produced between 1937 and 1942. Of which, just 11 Convertible Sedans were constructed and 10 are known to survive today, making this 1940 Packard Custom

by a Chicagoland resident. By 1951, this Packard Darrin would make its way to the West Coast where it was stored on a peanut farm in Arvin, California. It would stay in storage until 1967, when Dr. Richard Steiner of Torrance, California stumbled upon it and instantly fell in love. Knowing the importance of this vehicle, he purchased it with the intent to restore. During his time researching the car, he would get oversight and guidance from a nearby Santa Monica resident, Mr. Howard “Dutch” Darrin himself. Dr. Steiner would finish the restoration in 1994 and, on June 8th, 1995, it would make its debut at the Classic Car Club of America California Grand Classic where it scored an impressive 98 out of 100 points. Shortly after, this Packard Darrin garnered its CCCA Senior badge, number 1898, which is still proudly affixed to the cowl. Retaining the Packard for another year, it was sold in May 1996 to well-known collector, the late Otis Chandler. A gem in his storied collection of prized pre-war classics, it would be sold in 2003 to a known West Coast collector, who would then sell it to the late Richard Kughn Collection. A favorite among the Detroit-based collection, the Kughns would show this special Packard at numerous concours, including Meadowbrook and Amelia Island. In 2010, it would add to its award list by capturing its CCCA Premier honors with a first place at the Michigan

Grand Classic. In 2014, this Super-Eight One-Eighty Convertible Sedan would find a new home in the collection of John O. Bohmer, who had a focus on Full Classics®, and retained this Packard until it was sold along with his estate in 2023.

Today, this Laguna Maroon Custom Packard still presents very well. Not only is it a seldom seen example because of its low production, it is elegantly equipped with various original period accessories, which include, bumper guards, driving lights, an under-dash heater, a radio, a backup light, and the desirable Econo-Drive overdrive. Equipped with a nicely sorted 160 horsepower 356-cubic-inch L-head straight-8 engine and three-speed manual transmission with Econo-Drive overdrive, it presents as an ideal choice for CCCA CARavan events and tours.

With the blessing and valuable input during the restoration process by the man who originally crafted this machine, this rare, 1 of only 10 1940 Packard Custom Super Eight One-Eighty Convertible sedans has been nurtured and cherished by a select list of passionate and dedicated enthusiasts during its lifetime. Today, it offers its next caretaker the same enjoyment it did its previous owners the opportunity to add an award-winning Full Classic® to their collection and one that will only add value and prestige for decades to come.

1940 Chevrolet DeLuxe Custom Coupe

W

ith America yet to enter World War II in 1940, the motor industry was still in full swing and Chevrolet, with its new slogan “Chevrolet’s First Again,” was one of the biggest sellers. For 1940, the models were designed, built, and priced to be first in sales again, as they had been eight of the last nine years. Three different models were offered, a Special DeLuxe, Master DeLuxe, and Master 85, all in varying body styles. From the factory, the 1940 DeLuxe Coupe was equipped with a dependable 85-horsepower, 216-cubic-inch inline six-cylinder engine, but thankfully, this example has been tastefully upgraded to a new engine setup, leaving it with a custom twist.

Many pre-war models like this 1940 Chevrolet DeLuxe have been cut, modified, or chopped by hot rodders and customizers, making it hard to find

original body examples today. Retaining its original and unmodified ‘40s flamboyance and curves is this 1940 Chevrolet DeLuxe Custom Coupe, which has a custom twist under its original skin. During restoration, the dark black paint was professionally applied and all the chrome work presents well and shines nicely and evenly. The front and rear bumpers feature bumper guards, adding to its ‘40s stance. It rides on color-matched steel wheels with Chevrolet script hubcaps wrapped with Commander four-ply wide whitewall tires.

Being a business coupe model, the cabin features a single bench seat in the front, a spacious area in the rear, and a spacious trunk. The interior presents quite well and boasts some special features like a modern air-conditioning and heating system, as well as a rare

optional DeLuxe Chevy spinner steering wheel which, if you are able to find one, will run you close to $5,000.

Under the hood is where the custom twist can be found, as power has been upgraded to a 1951 six-cylinder engine that is fitted with an Offenhauser intake manifold, upgraded dual carbs, and topped with a Wayne valve cover, all increasing horsepower and drivability. Other engine compartment upgrades include a Delco Remy alternator and 12-volt battery system.

A stylish DeLuxe model from the beloved ‘40s that retains its original looks and has been tastefully upgraded in all the right spots, this Custom Coupe makes for the ideal choice for a sunset drive, weekend cruiser, or vehicle to take to the local car show and meet.

six-cylinder engine, a tradition that has been carried over to every M3 model since.

In 1994, the European market received the exclusive M3 GT as a homologation special so that BMW could compete in the FIA-GT Class II and IMSA GT races. It used a Euro-spec S50B30 engine,

MW’s 3 series served as their line of compact executive cars since 1975, with the performance “M” version debuting in 1986 with the famous E30 generation. In 1992, the E36 generation got its own M3 model as a coupe, with the convertible version arriving later in 1994. This generation was the first M3 to use a

upgraded with a larger camshaft and a higher compression ratio that put out 295 horsepower through a five-speed manual gearbox and could reach an unrestricted top speed of 171 mph (275 km/h). Exterior changes included a deeper and adjustable front splitter, higher rear double wing, aluminum doors, special wheels, stiffer front suspension, a cross-brace, and a strut brace. All M3 GTs came in British Racing Green and were 66 lbs. (30 kg) lighter than the regular M3. Only 356 examples were produced.

This particular example is number 160 of the 356 M3 GTs built. It is a German market example optioned with a sunroof and first registered in May of 1995 to a resident of Berlin. During their ownership, the car saw regular dealer service at Schiel and Bobrink & Co, GmbH, and racked up a total of 38,389 km (23,853 mi) by 1996.

In March of 1998, it was sold to its second owner, a fellow Berlin resident, who continued loving the car and putting kilometres on the odometer. In 2008, after ten years of ownership, the BMW went on to its third owner with the recorded mileage at the time of purchase being 134,900 km (83,822 mi).

According to the history file on record, the car was deregistered on March 22, 2013, and was afterward moved with red license plates which equate to U.S. dealer plates meant for short distances. As it sits today, this example has an inviting 145,500 kilometres (90,904 miles) from new.

In June of 2023, the current owner entrusted Orchid Euro in Pottstown,

Pennsylvania, to assist in importing the BMW into the port of Baltimore. A month later, it visited Leading Edge Autosport in West Chester, Pennsylvania, to undergo normal maintenance repairs to ensure it was ready to hit the road again in full force. The $5,600+ service was comprised of a new battery vent tube kit, the air-conditioning system’s valves and system refill, oil and filter, front suspension coil springs and rear suspension shocks, drive belts, fuel filter, oil pressure sensor, spark plugs, air filter, passenger side sun visor bulb, brake system and transmission flush, new tires and a dry ice cleaning of the entire engine bay and underside. In August of 2023, it made its way back to Leading Edge Autosport one more time for a new fuel pump assembly. Upon purchase, the next owner will receive the owner’s manuals with numerous service stampings, a set of extra keys, a complete tool kit, original German paperwork, and service records on file.

As it sits, this 1 of 356 BMW M3 E36 GT is a well-driven example of a rare German beast. It still retains most of its original paint, and special original wheels with GT-specific part numbers and finish. Despite its mileage, it presents extremely well and still provides the rewarding driving experiences for which BMWs have become known. It is also a savvy investment, checking all the collectability boxes including limited production, high-performance homologation special model, unique color combination, and high hallmarks of originality.

monumental. One of the most popular optional packages that year was the Mach 1 edition. Available only on the SportsRoof, also known as the fastback coupe, it was equipped with a number of appearance items such as the unique blacked-out front grille, special honeycomb treatment to the blacked out rear panel, colorkeyed sport racing mirrors for both doors, pop-open fuel filler

ustang received a complete redesign for the 1971 model year, one where the hood grew longer, the engine bay grew bigger and the whole car added about two inches in overall length. A new full-width grille placed the headlights at the very edges of the grille and the list of performance options, speed enhancing equipment, and creature comforts became

cap, special striping and body markings. The interior also touted high-back bucket seats and a full set of gauges. Power was delivered from the base small block 302-cid V-8 with two-barrel intake. But for those looking for a little extra, a long list of options was aimed toward the Mach 1 customer. Dress-up items such as Magnum 500 chrome wheels, a NASA style hood featuring working air scoops, striping packages, and an assortment of bigger displacement engines.

A total of 36,449 Mach 1 Mustangs were produced for the 1971 model year and today they represent one of the most exciting times in American automotive production.

Back when you could go to a Ford dealer and order your dream car, a customer walked into Williams Ford in West Hartford, Connecticut in April of 1971 and fell in love with a dark green Mach 1. It was equipped with stock steel wheels fitted with hubcaps and bright wheel trim rings, had the E70 X 14 belted white sidewall tires, power steering and power front disc brakes. For entertainment, it was equipped with an AM push-button radio. Aside from the black and silver bucket seats, there was the “Sport Rear Deck,” or folding rear seat. Under the hood was the powerful 300-HP, Cleveland Ram-Air 351-cid V-8 engine backed by the wide-ratio four-speed manual transmission. The car was driven off and enjoyed for a couple of seasons before the second owner acquired the car around November 1973. Details of subsequent owners have been lost to time but when discovered by our consignor in 2017, it was in the ownership of a body and restoration shop owner who had performed quite a bit of magic to

this awesome ride. The body was reported to need only minor attention; all work was conducted by a skilled craftsman, as this was not a customer’s car but was owned by the boss of the shop. It was repainted the original Dark Green Poly with clear coat finish using the BASF system. As offered by the factory, a coating of silver or argent paint was applied to the lower body side panels with original style Mach 1 identification also in argent, applied to the front fender panels and rear spoiler. The original interior was restored as needed and today those comfortable and supportive bucket seats with the proper grained vinyl and silver accents, are very inviting. One upgrade during the restoration was the addition of a set of beautiful Magnum 500 steel wheels and a new set of BFGoodrich Radial T/A raised white letter tires. In the rear trunk space sits a vintage Space Saver spare, which is believed to have been with this car ever since it left the Ford Rouge factory in Dearborn, Michigan. Our consignor has no hesitation in describing this car as “almost flawless” and the quality of the fit and finish of the restoration agrees with his summation. Confirming this car’s heritage is a Marti Report which states that of all the Mach 1 Mustangs produced, only 4,491 were fitted with the Cleveland 351 V-8 and four-speed transmission, which is barely over 12-percent. Sadly, 1971 would mark the end of an era where horsepower was unbridled, fuel was affordable, and the open road was the playground for sporty and exciting cars like this Mustang. Here is a chance to own one of the most iconic “pony cars” ever produced.

hen it comes to restoration work nothing beats experience, especially when it’s all servicing the same marque. With over 250 vintage Jeepsters restored so far, Florida’s Jeepster Jim is a legend in the field. When he says no expense was spared on this 1950 Jeepster, it means something; when he calls it a concours-quality Jeepster, rest assured, he knows of which he speaks. This entire vehicle was stripped to bare metal in preparation for a comprehensive restoration. The finish is amazing, starting with three coats of primer, then two coats of Dupont base coat, and three coats of high-quality Dupont clear coat

that was expertly cut and buffed between coats. In addition, all the chrome is in show quality condition and very complete. Step inside, and the steering wheel is new, as well as all the glass, mats, and rubber.

The interior seating and canvas top are also new, as well as the matching top boot and side curtains. The gauges have all been restored and calibrated, and the wiring is completely new and color-coded exactly to factory specs. The F-134 four-cylinder engine was blueprinted and balanced, and the original threespeed transmission with overdrive was completely rebuilt. Starting from the ground up, it has new Coker

tires, new hubcaps, beauty rings, wheel cylinders, master cylinder, brake lines, and shock absorbers.

Pop the hood, and literally everything – the battery, fuel pump, clutch, pressure plate, plugs and wires, main bearings, rebuilt crank, rod bearings, pistons, rings, cam, valves, guides, valve seals, gaskets and seals, and exhaust are all-new. It starts easily, runs smoothly and looks splendid.

Skip the hassle in sourcing a donor vehicle, finding parts, or hiring the right mechanics to do the job.

There is no need to wait two-plus years for a Jeepster Jim restoration when this beauty is available now.

1979 Porsche 928 Coupe • A clean and correct example with only 32,514 miles • $25,000 in service work from the last three years

• Desirable Pasha upholstery • A tasteful combination of a sports coupe and a luxury tourer

T

Fuhrmann, credited for the development of the type 547 engine, used in the 550, 356 Carrera GT, and GS cars, initiated a design study in 1971 for a new range-topping gran turismo car. Several drivetrain layouts were considered early on including both midand rear-engine designs. Deciding that a mid-engine layout did not allow enough room in the passenger compartment and a rear-engine layout made emission and noise control challenging,

he Porsche 928 was a startling departure for Porsche. For a tradition-rich company controlled by a family that produced lightweight, rear-engine, air-cooled sports cars, the Porsche 928 was a complete break from the 356/911 lineage. By the late 1960s, executives including Ferry Porsche, began considering the addition of a luxury touring car to their lineup. With slumping sales of the then-current flagship 911, managing director Ernst

a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive transaxle layout was selected. The chosen front-mounted type M28 single overhead camshaft, water-cooled V-8 engine displaced 4.5 litres, and featured a Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection system.

Combining a transmission, axle, and differential in one integrated assembly in the rear, this new Type 928 achieved near 50/50 weight distribution - a tasteful combination of a sports coupe and a luxury tourer.

This 1979 Porsche 928 Coupe is finished in the attractive color of Schwarz Metallic over a desirable Pasha interior, which many would consider to be the best of Porsche interiors. A clean and correct example, it is fitted with Porsche signature rotary phone dial wheels and Continental tires. The engine is nice and neat, and the clean cabin has its original carpet, 928-floor mats, and Blaupunkt cassette radio. The first owner of this Porsche accumulated around a reported 19,000 miles in the 23 years of ownership before changing hands in 2002 with its second owner who resided in Michigan. During their ownership, the car only gained another 10,000 miles over 18 years before it was realized that the car was going to sit more and more, so the decision was made to sell it. The second owner ended up selling the 928 to Casey Putsch of Perrysburg, Ohio,

in December of 2019. Casey has a large YouTube automotive channel as well as being the founder of Genius Garage Racing, which specializes in automotivefocused educational programming. For the next year, he used this 928 as part of his educational content and began a light refurbishment, which included applying the Pasha interior to the upholstery, new dash switches and knobs, a plastic dash cover, and tuning the CIS fuel injection. After Casey’s ownership, the car made its way to Reno, Nevada, where it spent a little under two years, and was driven sparingly while receiving work to make it even nicer. At the time of cataloging, the odometer shows just 32,514 miles.

According to the current owner, an extensive mechanical service was conducted within the last three years, as well as a full refurbishment of the air-conditioning, brake, fuel, intake, vacuum systems, and much more, costing $25,000. Accompanying the sale of this car is an original owner’s manual, service records from 2021 to 2022, and various invoice forms. A departure from the Porsche norm, this clean and correct Pasha-lined 928 Coupe, has many more miles to give and will continue to carry on the creative models of the ‘70s Porsche fleet.

or Packard, 1937 ushered in a memorable and much-needed successful year for the American luxury automaker as it showcased a robust recovery from the economic downturn of the early 1930s.

The steel body is robed in a deep black paint that is accented by subtle red pinstriping, a beige cloth convertible top with red piping, and 16-inch black wheels with matching red pinstriping, trim rings, and chrome center hubcaps. Furthering the elegant and bold appearance of this commanding Packard are dual-covered side-mounted spare tires topped

with chrome mirrors, bumper guards, a pair of Trippe driving lights, and a rear folding trunk rack.

Matching the pinstriping of the outside, the cabin has been reupholstered in beautiful Red Oxblood leather with matching carpeting and door panels. Interior accoutrements include a burl grain dash, woodgrain banjo-style steering wheel, clock, AM radio, a roll-up divider window, rear ashtrays, robe cord, courtesy light, and a folding center armrest. A true Classic Car Club of America Full Classic®, this Packard is equipped with a mechanically sound 135-horsepower 320-cubic-inch L-head straight-eight engine paired with a Stromberg single two-barrel carburetor that is backed by a three-speed manual transmission.

Pinned with an array of awards from multiple shows, this Packard Super Eight proudly wears a Packard Automobile Classics National Meet First Place badge, CCCA National First Prize, and AACA National First Prize badge. Packards were built to last and made to transport their occupants in the ultimate form of American luxury. Awaiting to be enjoyed by its next caretaker on the open road, this 1937 Packard Super Eight Convertible Sedan, with a proven show record, is a great vehicle to take on classic car tours and shows around the country.

1963 Lincoln Continental Convertible • Documented President John F. Kennedy parade car • Only three owners from new and recently restored • 1 of only 3,212 produced in 1962

T

he Continental model became a mainstay at Lincoln with the original run lasting from 1939 to 1948. It disappeared from the lineup, only to make a grand return in 1956 as a standalone brand – placed at the pinnacle of the American market. The Continental Mark II was hand-built, featured revolutionary styling, and was priced at approximately $10,000, about the same as a comparable

Rolls-Royce. Sales were slow and after only two model years, the plug was pulled on the Continental brand.

In 1958, Continental returned to the Lincoln umbrella and became known as the Mark III. The Mark III was a large, four-door luxury sedan or two-door convertible, built on the regular Lincoln line to keep costs in check. Styling was ornate, some might say

heavy-handed, and a far cry from the elegant minimalist lines of past designs.

For 1961, the Continental was redesigned again and the “Mark” series moniker was dropped – it was now simply known as the Lincoln Continental. Styled

by Elwood Engel, the new car was a drastic departure from the Mark III. It was originally intended as a design proposal for the new Thunderbird but was wisely chosen by Bob McNamara to go to Lincoln and the design was tweaked to suit the brand’s image. Gone was the frenetic style and excessive detail, and in its place was an elegant, low, slab-sided sedan or four-door convertible complete with rear “suicide” hinged doors. Though still a fairly large car, the new Continental was a full 14-inches shorter than the outgoing car, and it carried its bulk much better than before. Crisp and elegant, the Continental became an icon of 1960s style and enjoyed a successful run from 1961 through 1969, with over 360,000 units sold in total. The unique four-door convertible body style was discontinued after the 1967 model year. In 1962, only 3,212 Continental convertibles were produced and less than half of those had air-conditioning.

This elegant 1962 Lincoln Continental has the historical distinction of carrying President John F. Kennedy during his trip in a parade celebrating the ‘Niagara Frontier’ in 1962. The White House presented a brass plaque to the car’s owner in 1962 to commemorate the occasion, which was proudly mounted in the car where President Kennedy sat and is still mounted in the car today.

Documentation includes photographs of President Kennedy sitting in this car and the aforementioned plaque. The car’s original owner can be seen in the photograph. The car’s second owner was actually the person who took the photograph, who then purchased the car from the original owner decades later and eventually sold it to the present owner.

A restoration commenced on this significant Lincoln about seven years ago and the owner states it has never had any rust or rust repairs and the 430-cubic-inch engine and automatic transmission were rebuilt about two and half years ago. During the restoration, all the electrical relays were rebuilt as well. In 2023, a new red leather interior and a new black convertible top were fitted. The result of all this careful restoration has created a car that not only looks beautiful but drives exceptionally well. Everything works as it should on this Lincoln, including the power top, cold air-conditioning, power accessories and original radio with power antenna. No detail was overlooked, including the original undercoating applied at the dealership which was present on most Lincolns of this era.

Stunningly finished in Ermine White with red leather, this gorgeous and historically significant 1962 Lincoln Continental Convertible would be a stellar addition to any collection and is ready to be driven with confidence.

1974 Lincoln Continental Mark IV

A

s the third generation of Lincoln's elite Mark Series models, the Continental Mark IV was produced from 1972 through 1976, sharing a common chassis with the contemporary Ford Thunderbird. Featuring signature hidden headlights with instantly recognizable Lincoln frontal styling, the Mark IV also featured a Continental trunk lid with a rounded deck reminiscent of classic spare tire kits and it introduced the oval C-pillar opera windows that would inspire their use by several imitators. Power was delivered by Ford's top-of-the-line 460-cubic-inch V-8 engine, rated 212-215 horsepower depending on the source. A very strong seller with nearly 48,600 examples of these premium automobiles leaving dealer showrooms for the inaugural 1972 model year alone, the Mark IV came one way - fully loaded, commanding an $8,640 base price. Production rose to 57,316 for 1974, with a price

increase to $10,194. True to purpose, the Continental MK IV was an excellent competitor to Cadillac’s Eldorado and Coupe de Ville, not to mention the Oldsmobile Toronado, Buick Riviera, and Pontiac Grand Prix. Epitomizing luxury, and arguably the archetype for personal luxury in the 1970s, the Continental MK IV was a staple of TV shows and movies during the 1970s and 1980s, with prominent on-screen use in Cannon, Wonder Woman, Smokey and the Bandit, Blue Velvet, Fame, Columbo and many other high-profile productions.

This exceptionally well-preserved and well-presented 1974 Lincoln Continental Mark IV left the Wixom, Michigan assembly plant in March 1974 finished in Code 5S Medium Beige paint and the optional Code BZ Saddle genuine leather interior, the original color combination the Lincoln retains today. Ample power is delivered by

the standard Code A 460-cubic-inch V-8 engine, C6 Select Shift automatic transmission, and highway-friendly 2.75:1 rear axle. The MK IV also retains its original full vinyl roof covering, original paint finish, and original interior.

Clearly benefiting from 30 years of care and climate-controlled storage under the prior owner, this exceptionally original MK IV has covered just 61,000 miles.

Featuring far too many standard and optional features to fully list, this impressive 1974 Lincoln Continental MK IV also retains its optional, original AM/FM Multiplex radio with 8-track stereo player, which also includes dual front and dual rear speakers with a power antenna.

Representing a virtual trip back in time to the 1970s, this 1974 Lincoln Continental MK IV is 1970’s luxury personified.

1960 Edsel Ranger Two-Door Hardtop • 1 of only 295 Ranger two-door hardtops for the short 1960 model year • Original Ranger V-8 power • Previously owned by the president of the International Edsel Club

• Extremely rare and desirable • Nicely presented and benefitting from a sympathetic restoration

I

the prediction of 200,000 sales in the first year alone. However, a combination of events upset these heady plans. Edsel was positioning itself in the medium price field, just above Chevrolet, Plymouth, and Ford, and just below such luxury brands as Cadillac,

n the fall of 1957, the automotive world was alive with the entry of a brand-new make of automobiles being introduced by Ford Motor Company. Presented in four series with 18 different models, the Edsel was set to take the American car market by storm with

Lincoln and Imperial. At the moment of Edsel’s release, an economic recession was in full swing and, throughout the industry, sales in this segment and others took a pretty good hit. As one observer of the day noted, “Edsel sales started off kind of slow and grew worse after that.” Even before the car was released, there were plans for trimming the lineup, and even talks of discontinuing the car as early as October 1957.

As a trimming down of the 1959 models was taking place, in March 1958, it was decided to scrub development of a 1960 Edsel as a car with unique style and design, and to adopt the already approved 1960 Fords as a starting point for a new design. Talented stylist “Bud” Kaufman was given the task and a meager budget to create a good-looking car starting with the approved Ford Fairlane sedan, plus the 1960 Ford’s Sunliner convertible and futuristic looking Starliner hardtop. Kaufman did not disappoint and on October 15, 1959, the “New-Nifty-Thrifty” 1960 Edsel was released. Only the Ranger series remained with a pair of Villager station wagons included, presenting five basic body styles with two- and four-door sedans, a convertible and two- and four-door hardtops. While the sedans and four-door hardtop shared a basic body shell with Ford’s lower priced Fairlane series, the 1960 Ranger two-door hardtop was a whole different animal. It shared bodies with the legendary NASCAR-winning Ford Starliner. Featuring a fastback design with the C-pillars and an expansive rear backlight, these cars captured style and speed even when standing still.

Setting the Edsel apart from the 1960 Ford was a heavy diecast chrome front

grille, large vertical oval taillights and back-up rear lights, as well as a stainlesssteel body side sweep-spear starting on the front fender and ending behind the wheel opening on the rear quarter panel.

This beautiful example is 1 of just 295 Ranger two-door hardtops assembled during the very short 1960 model year; it rolled off the Louisville, Kentucky assembly line October 9, 1959. Finished in a rich Cadet Blue metallic with the contrasting Polar White roof, the interior is fitted with the original Moroccan grain dark blue vinyl bolsters, the back seat emblazoned with the giant circled “E” and fitted with black pebble cloth inserts. Under the hood, the highly detailed original 292-cubic-inch, 200-horsepower, Y-block V-8 purrs like a kitten and is backed up with the economical and reliable Mile-O-Matic two-speed automatic transmission. Other factory appointments include the Lever-Temp heater/defroster, push-button AM radio, padded dashboard, and full wheel covers. Research shows this car was sold new in Southern California and in the early 1980s was acquired by Edsel aficionado, Charlie Wells in Ohio. It was later purchased by the late Chuck Arndts, who was president of the International Edsel Club at the time. Our consignor acquired the car over a decade ago from the Arndts Estate and has maintained this Edsel in every possible way.

Presenting a straight and solid body, the car starts easily with the turn of the key and drives just as smooth and sure as it did 64 years ago when it was a new car. Rarely does the chance arise to acquire such a unique mid-century starship on wheels as this stunning 1960 Ranger two-door hardtop.

1919 Renault Type GR Skiff • Seldom seen Belvallette & Cie coachwork • Photo documented restoration by Carrosserie Lecoq Paris of France

• 2019 Boca Raton Concours d’Elegance Rolling Sculpture Award winner • Formerly of the world-renowned Harrah’s Collection; documented by verification certificate

R

and reliability. The earliest Renaults were powered by deDion engines and, with a pair of them, Louis and Marcel finished first and second in the amateur drivers class in the 1899 Paris-Trouville race. Only two years later, Renault was building cars and its own

enault’s reputation was made on the open road races of Europe in the cars built and driven by Louis Renault and his brother Marcel. Competition was the most effective way to promote the company’s products and to demonstrate their speed

engines specifically for competition, and Marcel won the overall victory in the 1901 Paris-Vienna race. By 1913, Renault had grown to become the largest automaker in France, with a reputation for luxury cars of exceptional quality, often fitted with the latest in formal coachwork. In the formative years from 1904 to 1928, Renault’s primary identifying features were a shovel nose bonnet and a radiator positioned between the engine and the firewall, something many competitors soon adopted.

A rarely seen Type GR Skiff Renault, this example sports stylish open coachwork by coachbuilder Belvallette & Cie of France. Bearing chassis number 64533, it is believed this Renault was built in 1918, but the body was not completed until 1919. The charming, nautical-inspired body features African Mahogany decking and a full canvas top with matching side curtains. The two-tone light blue livery suits the boat-like body and is believed to be close to the original color scheme. Accents are provided by black fenders and light grey coach lines, with body-colored artillery wheels.

A copy of the production ledger shows this Renault was first delivered to New York; however, the original owner’s identity remains a mystery. Known history picks up with Eugene Lajunie, owner of the Fair Oaks Garage in Pasadena, California in 1947 and again in 1962 when George Shafer of San Bernardino, California, a founder and past president of The Horseless Carriage Club, sold it to the world-famous Harrah’s Collection of Reno, Nevada. William Harrah had an eye for rare and interesting cars and surely recognized the significance of this Renault when he acquired it. This GR remained in the Harrah’s Collection until the early 1980s, when many of the cars either became part of the

National Motor Museum in Reno or were sold at auction. This Type GR Skiff was then acquired by Mr. Shar of Glendale, California. Photos on file show this example when it was purchased from Harrah’s, displaying this Renault as worn down but very complete, making it an ideal candidate for a restoration.

For the restoration, it was only fitting that it was returned to Europe in 1996 for Carrosserie Lecoq Paris of France to complete the thorough restoration.

Finished in 2002 and documented by a photo album showing the entire process, everything, including the mechanical prowess was gone through, leaving the 18-horsepower long-stroke 4,534cc four-cylinder Monobloc engine ready for touring and road enjoyment. Refinished in two-tone ocean blue with tan leather upholstery, it is handsomely presented and well-detailed throughout.

Carefully maintained since restoration, it has mellowed nicely, and shows signs of occasional use while remaining worthy of display. Most recently, this Renault won the Rolling Sculpture Award in February 2019 at the Boca Raton Concours d’Elegance.

With the sale of this special 1919 automobile, the next owner will receive a Harrah's Verification Certificate, a copy of a Nevada title in Bill Harrah’s name, an owner’s manual, and the aforementioned copy of the production ledger as well as photos before and during the restoration process.

Seldom seen today with fabulous coachwork and striking features, this proven award-winning 1919 Renault Type GR Skiff which was once owned by one of the largest collectors in the world, will make a great addition to one’s collection or to grace any show field they desire.
