• A rare and nicely restored example

• Well-presented color scheme

• First-year for the revolutionary Schwinn Whizzer Motor Bike

1947 Schwinn Whizzer Motor Bike

Apopular mode of transportation during its time that played a crucial role in the development of motorized bikes today, the Schwinn Whizzer Motor Bike was an early adapter and pioneer in the motoring space. The origins of the Schwinn Whizzer can be traced back to the late 1930s when the Los Angelesbased Whizzer Motor Company began producing small engines that could be attached to bicycles. In 1947, the Whizzer Motor Company entered into an agreement with the Schwinn Bicycle Company, one of the leading bicycle manufacturers in the United States. The collaboration of these two powerhouse

companies led to the production of the Schwinn Whizzer Motor Bike, which featured a two-stroke engine mounted on a Schwinn bicycle frame. The Whizzer engine was a single-cylinder, air-cooled motor that produced about two horsepower. It was a simple design that used a belt drive system to transfer power from the engine to the rear wheel. The bike had a top speed of about 35 miles per hour and could achieve a fuel efficiency of around, or greater than, 100 miles per gallon.

Offered from the first year of the powerhouse duo, this 1947 Schwinn Whizzer Motor Bike has been nicely

restored to its former glory. A rare bike to come across today, it is well-presented in a lovely color scheme of dark maroon and cream paint found throughout the Schwinn bike frame. This bike features a singlemounted headlight on the handlebars, a black leatherette seat with shocks, and a rack mounted on the rear tire fender.

Having been nicely restored, this 1947 Schwinn Whizzer Motor Bike would be a delightful addition to one's ever-growing collection or simply as a display piece in their man cave for friends and family to admire.

• Fully equipped and functioning

• 23-karat gold leafing

1954 Willys Utility Wagon 404

• A big year for the Utility Wagon, with a bigger engine and four-wheel drive

• Beautifully finished with fresh trim and chrome

• Considered the first all-steel passenger SUV

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 654FA211077

• New interior with versatile seating for six

The Willys Jeep Two-Door Wagon, also known as the Utility Wagon, was produced by Willys and Kaiser Jeep from 1946 to 1964, and today, is generally acknowledged as the first all-steel station wagon used as a passenger vehicle. One of the most successful post-war vehicles with over 300,000 produced, the Brooks Stevens design in 4WD was marketed as the Utility Wagon, with the 2WD variants sold as a Station Wagon. 1954

represented the first year of production by Kaiser, now with the 6-266 Super Hurricane flathead six-cylinder engine as the exciting new powerplant. Now more comfortable and versatile than ever, Willys’ sales continued to grow strongly through the whole decade. Starting with an 80,000-mile highly original vehicle, our consignor began the restoration about 10 years ago and completed the bodyoff-the-frame process that left no stone unturned. The cosmetic

portion of the job was relatively easy, given the minimal bodywork required. Everyone notices the lovely custom two-tone paint scheme that looks so good on these wagons - after all, those panel scallops certainly make great paint lines as well, and the finely detailed result is stunning. All the original trim was re-plated and reused with solid results, and the truck presents as clean, square, and correct from bumper to bumper. After all, it was built as a personal project, and our consignor was leaving nothing to chance on the truck of his dreams. Look underneath, and it’s just as sharp, with new springs, shocks, brakes, and exhaust mounted on the clean original frame. They even re-cored the original radiator to keep things authentic. Clean and correct from end to end, it has obviously been lightly used since completion, and the quality of the workmanship is definitely top-shelf.

The engine compartment contains all original factory components with the numbers-matching 6-266 six-cylinder L-head engine - first introduced in 1954 - pulling 115 horsepower for the first time. The three-speed manual transmission - Borg Warner T-86E - is floor shifted, with traditional manual hubs to engage the four-wheel drive. The truck starts

readily, idles quietly, and will crawl up the steepest slopes in 4WD Low. Durable and incredibly nimble, it’s easy to see why these groundbreaking wagons remain so popular to this day. Big on the inside, yet incredibly easy to drive and park, it’s a vehicle that will go just about anywhere and is especially at home on the rural backroads of our great country. There’s nothing left to do inside, with a clean and correct dash, floor mats, and wonderful new seat upholstery in vibrant white panels with red trim, a theme that carries into the door panels as well. Two tall buckets up front, a single fold-up seat in the middle, and a comfy bench for two or three give you lots of possibilities for fun with the family. The new headliner and careful repaint make for a clean and versatile truck.

This Willys Utility Wagon can literally do it allfrom hauling the family to hauling the toys, from the country club to the campground, or from the steepest trails to the rural highways. This fine example is fully ready for all of it. With a tasteful new interior, lovely paint surfaces, and a clean numbers matching engine, the next owner will certainly enjoy being a hit at any car show or Jeep rally they choose to attend.

1966 Dodge Coronet 500 Hemi Convertible 405

• Believed to be 1 of just 9 automatic ’66 Coronet 500 Hemi Convertibles built

• 36 years of single enthusiast ownership; known history from new

• Documented with two original broadcast sheets, original Certicard, copy of window sticker, and original owner’s manuals

In 1964, Chrysler found itself at the top of the NASCAR podium with more than just one of their drivers. With Richard Petty leading the charge in his Hemi-powered race car, four of the top five finishers for the Daytona 500 that year would be Hemi-powered Mopars. Not happy with the Hemi cars quite literally tearing up the track and

• Equipped with the legendary and desirable 426-cubic-inch Hemi V-8 engine

blowing the competition away, NASCAR banned it from competing for the 1965 season, claiming it was because it wasn’t offered in a regular production car. To meet homologation regulations, Chrysler pledged to offer a Hemi option for their 1966 model lineup, which could be ordered in any Mopar B-Body. Essentially taking the exact

setup used on the race cars for the production cars, the high-winding street-legal Hemis became legends on the open roads.

For the 1966 fifth-generation Dodge Coronet, buyers had the option of a two- or four-door sedan and six-passenger station wagon forms, the upscale Coronet 440 in four-door sedan, two-door hardtop, convertible, and six- or nine-passenger station wagons, all the way up to the Coronet 500 in two-door hardtop and convertible body styles. If this wasn’t hard enough to choose from, they also had five different engine options, ranging from a six-cylinder to the 426 Hemi V-8.

For Mopar cars, engine specifications, and documentation are everything, and this example has just that and more as it reigns as one of the scarcest ’66 Coronets produced; this 500 Hemi Convertible is 1 of only 9 automatics to leave the factory. With known history that can be traced back to new, this 500 Hemi would be sold on April 4, 1966, to George Walther Jr., owner of the Dayton Steel Foundry, who made a name for himself in the automotive world by fielding Indy 500 cars for various drivers. From there, this Coronet would be acquired by famed collector car dealer, the late Leo Gephart. Gephart would then sell this car to David Block of Wilmington, North Carolina; under his care, he would perform an extensive body-off-the-frame restoration including sourcing a period-correct 426 Hemi replacement engine – the block is a 1968 426 Hemi, while the cylinder heads are 1964. This would bring us to the current owner, an AACA Assistant Chief Judge, who would acquire it on April 3rd, 1987,

which is documented by a copy of the bill of sale. Under his 36 years of careful ownership, he would keep a meticulous maintenance log documenting everything that happened during his ownership. This rare Coronet 500 Hemi would also go on to win an astonishing 65 awards, most notably two AACA Grand National Senior Awards and the Concours Award of Excellence at the Pearl S. Buck Concours d’Elegance. A full and detailed list of all the awards is on file. Having only been driven around 500 miles per year, under current ownership, this Coronet 500 Hemi Convertible presents very well and is ready for continued showing at important events around the country.

Documented by two original broadcast sheets, its original Certicard, a copy of the window sticker, original owner’s manuals, and dealer pamphlets, this beautiful blue ’66 Coronet 500 Hemi convertible left the factory with the desirable and rare 426-cubicinch Hemi V-8 engine, dual four-barrel carburetors and a TorqueFlite middle console automatic transmission. Optioned with the 351 Coronet group and 362 Light Package, its rarity is further enhanced with power steering, power brakes, a sure grip differential, and an array of interior factory options. Toward the end of 2013, a new top and rear window were installed.

Thoroughly documented and meticulously maintained under the watchful eye of just one owner for the last 36 years, this award-winning, rare, and highly desirable 426 Hemi Convertible would be a rightful addition to any car event and surely any Mopar or muscle car collection.

1937 Ford Deco Rod 406

• LS6 450 HP engine with custom engraved valve covers

• Superbly finished with deep black paint and custom trim

• A stunning custom with unmistakable presence

• Cruising on air-ride suspension

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: NCS103905

• Vibrant red leather bucket seat interior with flawless dash and carpets

The 1937 Ford featured a sleeker, more rounded look with fine horizontal bars in the convex front- and hood-side grilles. The front grille was V-shaped, rather than following the fenders into a pentagon shape, as on the 1936 model. Faired-in headlights installed in the front fenders were a major modernization, found on both the Standard and DeLuxe trim versions. They sold well

but were never hot-rodded quite like the ’32. When done to the level of this Deco Rod, it’s easy to see this legendary design is the perfect palette for a modern custom, and the awards back it up.

Starting with a new custom body is a huge advantage; this one is placed on a boxed frame with tubular front suspension, Flaming River rack and pinion steering, and a four-bar rear suspension.

Riding on Intelliride air ride suspension, it features Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes beneath the 20-inch rear and 18-inch front custom red wheels. Full coverage custom hubcaps highlight the classic whitewall tires. It’s definitely got the stance, the look is undeniable, and you’ll find out the Deco Rod handles like a dream. The full custom interior is exceptional, starting with one of the deepest and softest red leather interiors you’ll ever see, which extends to the door panels in spectacular fashion. With chrome accents, the full modern dash fits right in with new analog gauges, and everyone will enjoy the center console-mounted Sony digital sound system. It’s capped off with an amazing custom tilt steering wheel with chrome accents, and the power seats and windows, air-conditioning, and flawless carpets finish up the incredible custom interior. That level of detail continues to the deep and smooth black paint finish as well, with perfectly straight lines, tight panel fit, and an incredible presentation throughout. The suicide doors open wide, the custom trim is amazing, and everything is tucked in tight with perfect fit. Even the power-operated trunk is smooth and clean, with fresh carpets and upholstery throughout. A hidden spare, discreet gas

filler, and 600 watt subwoofer are expertly installed, so there’s plenty of room for your personal gear. When you roll up in this beautiful ’37, everyone will take notice and will be hoping for a cruise. Pop the hood, and the modern LS6 Corvette Z06 power plant immediately stands out as beautifully finished, highly custom, and ready for action. The full 5.7 liters of power is on display as soon as you turn the key - roaring to life through the custom exhaust with a center oval rear tip. It easily pushes 450 horsepower, and is backed up by a modern GM Performance 4L65E transmission and a narrowed Ford 9-inch rear end. Custom black valve covers display the “Deco Rod” script for an amazing look that will draw admiration wherever it is displayed. This one certainly ticks all the boxes - LS6 power, full custom air ride suspension, a lavish leather interior, and incredible fit and finish with deep black paint - plus, it’s a multiple award winner. With amazing handling and a ton of power, the “Deco Rod” will certainly be on the top of your list for any cruise night, car show, or date night on your calendar. If a high quality killer custom is on your bucket list, then look no further.

1994 Toyota Supra MK IV JDM 407

• The most desirable model among JDM aficionados

• Rare right-hand-drive Japanese import

• 23,540 km (14,627 miles) from new

• One of the more iconic sports cars of the ‘90s

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: JZA80-0011016

As of recent, the JDM market has quite literally taken off and accelerated off the charts, as desirability for these types of vehicles has reached all-new highs. Original JDM spec vehicles from the ‘90s like the Nissan Skyline GT-R, Honda NSX-R, and Toyota Supra have led the charge. The resurgence of these vehicles is thanks to two main things: first, the companies have resurrected the nameplate and brought new 2022 versions to the market, creating a buzz to capture the nostalgic feels of the ‘90s version

and the second reason being the engines they carry, specifically the early 1990s Supra MK IVs. Hagerty describes the Supra’s twinturbocharged 2JZ as “One of the most durable and potent cannons to ever crawl out of the human brain’s primordial creative ooze.” A bold statement for sure, but these engines can handle four-digit horsepower figures and massive amounts of boost, hence why many have been tuned to do just that. As a result, stock examples such as this 1994 Toyota Supra MK IV JDM here are few and far

between and have become very valuable and hard to find.

Originally introduced in 1979, the Toyota Supra was derived from the Celica and was seen in four different unique forms which would last until 2002 and then revamped in 2019. The fourth generation Supra would last between 1993 and 2002 and be the iteration that truly built the Supra name into a cult-like following car, launching it into the forefront of desirable ‘90s vehicles. Offered from the second year of the fourth generation, this ’94 Supra is a truly rare and original Japanese imported right-handdrive example. Showing just 23,540 km (14,627 miles) from new, it also becomes a seldom-seen low mileage example that still has plenty of life left to give its next owner. A timeless look and stance, as it fits in with muscle-era vehicles but also as an everlasting futuristic look; it wears its original Silver Metallic Clearcoat (199) paint which shows nicely, only showing signs of sun fading on its huge wing adorned on the tailgate. It rides on five-spoke PIAA Racing wheels spun in Bridgestone Ultra Sport tires

which show plenty of tread left on them. While the GT exterior styling aided in sales, the main selling point was the monster that lurked under the hood waiting to cast any contenders to its rearview mirror. Teleporting the occupants from the get-go, the two-way twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre inline-six engine projects a certain sound and whistle that is unforgettable and brings joy to any enthusiast's ears. Well-maintained with low miles, the engine is in proper working order and offers its next owner the pleasure of simply turning the key and putting the pedal to the metal.

As every day goes by, there become fewer and fewer true and original JDMs on the market due to accidents, race circuits, and the growing trend to completely tune them with a new engine setup. With a cult-like following that only seems to be growing stronger every day, especially among the next generation of future collectors, this low mileage, right-hand-drive imported example is a wonderful addition to any collector looking to add a rarely seen appreciating asset.

1987 Porsche 911 Turbo 930 Coupe 408

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: WPOJB0932HS0511B6

• Desirable black on black turbocharged example with factory options

• Clean CARFAX® and just over 15,000 miles

• Engine-out service completed in July of 2020

• Accompanied by original window sticker, factory books and service invoices

Amidst a market of tame, underperforming sportscars, Porsche’s 930 Turbo crashed the party at the 1974 Paris Auto Show. It left all the competition in the dust with its air-cooled 3.3-litre, flat-six engine mated to an exhaust-driven KKK turbocharger that could nail 0-60 in 4.9 seconds when a new Ferrari could garner a mere 8 seconds. The provocative flared fenders and “tea tray” spoiler

over Fuchs wheels made for a blacktop eating machine that was as captivating to drive as it was to gaze at. The 930 captures all the high-octane, cold war swagger of Germany in the ‘80s. Just pop Kraftwerk into the cassette player and revel in all that was wild and wonderful about the fluorescent era in this low-mileage, immaculate example.

Soon to be the fastest production car in Germany, Porsche developed the 930 Turbo from their 911 Carrera in an effort to accommodate the Group 4 homologation rules for FIA racing that required production of 400 road cars. The Turbo was captivatingly styled with a front spoiler, flared fenders, rockers, rear stone guards, and the iconic “tea tray” rear spoiler, which made for an inimitable look that is still as provocative today as it was over forty years ago. Porsche married the KKK turbocharger to the 911 Carrera’s legendary engine then mated it to a swift four-speed gearbox. Torsion bar suspension was equipped with Bilstein dampers and braking was perfectly executed by four-piston opposed calipers clamping cross-drilled and vented rotors. A new icon was born. The car was released in Europe in 1975 and in the U.S. in 1976 to deafening fanfare. By 1978, the 930’s bore was enlarged, and the engine grew to 3.3 litres with a new air-to-air intercooler. Shortly thereafter, emissions regulations led Porsche to pull the 930 from the U.S. market in 1980, but they wouldn’t eschew the profitable market forever and the 930 made its celebrated return to our shores in 1986 with an emission-controlled 3.3-litre that delivered 282 horsepower, 5,500 rpms, a four-speed gearbox and the ultimate thrill in driver enjoyment. Consequently, the 930’s absence from our shores from 1980 to 1986 has made the 930 Turbos all the more desirable here at home and their value only continues to rise. A true U.S. 930 Turbo, this timeless black on black 1987 Porsche 911/930 Turbo was delivered new to Coral Cars in Indiana and lived a

pampered existence in Ohio, New York and Florida before the consignor’s ownership in Louisiana. With just over 15,000 miles on the odometer, this 930 boasts a clean CARFAX® and presents in immaculate condition. Additional factory options include a raised steering hub, limited slip differential, electric sunroof, and heated, electric sports seats, which are upholstered predominantly in black leather. Original Turbo-branded floormats, power windows, air-conditioning and Blaupunkt stereo complete the well-equipped cabin. This original car underwent a complete, engine-out servicing in July of 2020 at Porsche of Fort Myers, Florida, which included a brake fluid flush, oil change, valve adjustment, a refitting of the catalytic converter, plus new valve cover gaskets, filters, belts, accelerator cable and sound insulation pad. It has also been equipped with new Pirelli tires that wrap its desirable, staggered Fuchs 6-inch wheels that feature polished lips and black centers. Accompanying the sale is the original window sticker, the clean CARFAX® report, a clean Florida title, and a tome of servicing documents. The definitive sports car of its era with a body that’s never made the ‘80s look so good, this newly serviced, low mileage 930 Turbo is poised for sheer driver engagement and another lifetime of heart-pumping fun. Finding a 930 Turbo in this specification, mileage, and condition is becoming increasingly more difficult. A true performance car, this stunning example would be a noteworthy addition to any collection and equally enjoyable to use as a standalone weekend getaway car.

1929 Cord L-29 Special Tourer 409

• One-off custom coachwork with Le Mans-style seating for four

• Refreshed by noted Cord specialist Ken Clark

• Event, tour and track ready for immediate enjoyment

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: FD2775

• Fully restored with a highly original chassis and drivetrain

Founded in 1929 in Auburn, Indiana by automotive pioneer E.L. Cord, the Cord automobile was added to Mr. Cord’s array of fine marques that already included both Auburn and Duesenberg. The Cord was immediately known for its elegant styling and multiple pioneering technical innovations. This 1929 Cord L-29, featuring a one-off custom-built body has retained its remarkable coachwork for over 40 years.

The L-29 drew heavily on the technology developed for the Indy 500, initially designed by Cornelius Van Ranst. Among the innovations are features such as constant-velocity joints, de Dion suspension, and inboard-mounted brakes. Under the hood, the L-29 is powered by the remarkable 301-cubic-inch 125 HP Lycoming engine - another automotive company owned by E.L. Cord and part of his new automotive empire. While Cord offered a range of

their own body styles such as phaeton, brougham, and cabriolet, they utilized a wide number of both American and European coachbuilders to create their own distinct and rare body styles. Production of the Cord L-29 ended in 1932 as the Great Depression took over, with an estimated 5,000 examples built. This particular L-29 is an entirely correct L-29 chassis and drivetrain example. According to the consignor, a long-time collector of fine automobiles and avid yachtsman, all of the engine and major mechanical service was completed by legendary Cord specialist Ken Clark. The invoices accompanying the sale reveal a thorough restoration in 2005, including the engine, transmission and differential. Our Worldwide specialists report that the car roars to life immediately, is a pleasure to drive, and sounds fantastic.

From a styling perspective, the classic curves and aggressive stance of the front-wheel-drive L-29 portray an emotion of both elegance and performance. According to the long-time owner, the custom body was created sometime in the 1980s and it resembles the fabric-bodied styling of a 1920s Bentley Speed Six by Vanden Plas. This

custom coachwork allows for open-air seating for four and the lovely patina and woodwork will attract attention wherever it goes. Much of the interior is original to the coach build, with new carpets recently installed, as well as refurbishing of the original chrome wire wheels being the only major work required recently. All gauges including the tachometer, speedometer, temperature, fuel, and oil pressure are fully functional. The vehicle has been carefully stored and lightly used for the past three years in an impressive collection, and today, it starts right up and is a pleasure to drive, thundering down the road with an amazing sound. It even went back to L-29 specialist Ken Clark in 2022 for a complete mechanical freshening, with invoices included. With a styling nod to the famous racing W.O. Bentleys of the past and the renowned and accurate Lycoming engine and original drivetrain in place, this wonderful L-29 Special Tourer will allow the new owner access to many of the very best enthusiast events and tours around the country. It will no doubt be a highly enjoyable element in any driver's collection.

2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 3LZ 410

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN:

1G1YF2D31P5600310

• Virtually new with just over 600 miles

• Over $28,000 in options; including rare and highly desirable visible carbon fiber wheels and carbon ceramic brakes

• Equipped with a 5.5-liter 670-HP V-8 engine which allows for a blistering 2.6-second 0 to 60 time

• Finished in eye-catching Rapid Blue with dual Sterling Silver stripes and C8.R carbon graphics

Since its arrival in 1953, the Corvette has been a leader in the sports car market and one that strives for constant improvement with each and every model they produce. Quite literally shocking the entire automotive world with the unveiling of their new 2020 C8 model, the new mid-engine design was unlike anything Corvette had done. A new design that combined European flare

and American muscle, the automotive press loved it so much, it was bestowed with Motor Trend’s Car of the Year award. Many thought that there was no way Chevrolet could improve, but fast forward to 2023, and this Z06 3LZ exists to prove everyone wrong. The most technologically advanced and most powerful naturally aspirated Corvette to be unleashed from the factory,

the 2023 Z06 3LZ has solidified itself as one of the greatest Corvettes produced and one that has become nearly impossible to acquire straight from the factory or dealership.

Finished in the eye-catching color of Rapid Blue with optional Sterling Silver full-length dual racing stripes and carbon graphics this 2023 Corvette Z06 3LZ presents in virtually new condition and shows just over 600 break-in miles on the odometer. To add to the attractive color scheme, the consignor checked the box for the optional $8,500 Bright Red Brembo brake calipers, the dealer-installed carbon fiber Jake rear hash stripes, and the desirable $11,995 optional visible carbon fiber wheels. Rounding out its exotic look, it's equipped with a Z06 spoiler, composite splitter and rockers, and a matching Rapid Blue removable roof panel when the weather is favorable.

If somehow the looks weren’t enough to make you buy in, the performance side of this striking Z06 will. Equipped with the most powerful naturally aspirated engine to be bestowed upon a Corvette, this example garners its power from a 5.5-liter V-8 engine that produces a thrilling 670 horsepower and 460-lb-ft of torque. Thanks to the genius minds at Chevrolet, the numbers only get better whether on a track or the road, as this Z06 3LZ will propel to 60 miles per hour in just 2.6 seconds all while achieving a 10.7-second-quarter mile at 129 mph. As the old-time saying goes, “With great power, comes great responsibility,” and the engineers made sure the steering and overall experience were just as

impressive, with an array of driving modes to choose from, like regular, sport, track or the notorious Z mode, where you can customize the driving experience to your exact liking. Its responsiveness and comfortable handling can also be attributed to the active stability and traction control, magnetic selective ride control, a heavy-duty cooling system, and the aforementioned $8,500 factory optional carbon ceramic brakes.

Step into the cabin and sit on the perfectly positioned and exceptionally comfortable 8-way power GT2 bucket seats, and it feels like you are sitting in the cockpit of a high-powered fighter jet with all the technology controls right at your fingertips. Styled with the custom Natural Tan-wrapped interior package and sueded microfiber-wrapped upper interior package, the occupants are cocooned in style. Features like heated and ventilated seats, dual-zone air-conditioning, Apple CarPlay, a Bose performance series 14 speaker audio system, a center-mounted touchscreen with Bluetooth, and many other features give its occupants interior comfort and ease for any road trip.

With impeccable American engineering, a sleek exotic/American sports car design, half the maintenance cost of any foreign sports car, and the ability to do 0-60 in just 2.6 seconds, this new 2023 Corvette Z06 3LZ is in a league of its own. With a plethora of boxes ticked that add up to over $28,000 in options, this Z06 is a truly unique sports car that can be enjoyed now and will surely be even more desirable in the future.

1962 Jaguar E-Type Series I Roadster 411

• Highly desirable, low production ‘flat floor’ example

• Accompanied by its Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 876519

• Known ownership history from new

• Extensively documented restoration and service history

Debuted at the Geneva Salon in March 1961, the E-Type, or XKE as marketed in the United States, caused a sensation when it appeared, with instantly classic lines and a 150-mph top speed. The sleek design was inspired by the D-Type - a monocoque tub forming the main structure, while a tubular spaceframe extended forward to support the engine. The 3.8-litre E-Type's performance

did not disappoint; it weighed in around 500 pounds less than the XK150 and aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer used the experience gained with the D-Type to create one of the most elegant and efficient shapes ever to grace an automobile.

Today, the E-Type's graceful lines have become iconic and there can be little doubt that William Lyons' sublime creation would be

featured in any knowledgeable enthusiast's 'Top Ten' of the world's most beautiful cars of all time. Indeed, even Enzo Ferrari felt compelled to concede that the E-Type was “the most beautiful car ever made”. But of all the versions of Jaguar's long-lived and much-loved sports car, it is the very early 'flat floor' 3.8-litre car built prior to February 1962, which is widely considered the most desirable.

This Series I XKE is the highly desirable late production “flat floor” car that is more commonly associated with the 1961 model year cars. According to the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust (JDHT) Certificate that accompanies the car, this sleek 1962 XKE was delivered new to R.O. Campbell in January of 1962 by the Jaguar Cars dealer in Long Island, New York. The original owner retained the car for four decades, accumulating 83,000 miles during his ownership. Subsequently, Dr. Steve Morrison acquired the XKE, liberating it from many years of dry storage. In 2003, Dr. Morrison commissioned noted vintage Jaguar specialist Terry Lippincott’s Garage in Sinking Springs, Pennsylvania to conduct a comprehensive mechanical restoration in order to get the Jaguar back on the road once again. Restoration work included a complete rebuild of the engine, clutch, carburetors and more. The work was performed between 2002 and 2014 and is extensively documented with detailed notes and receipts. Dr. Morrison enjoyed the car, having driven it approximately 4,000 miles during his eleven years of stewardship with the XKE. In 2014, the Jaguar was acquired by its current owner and brought to Florida. The highly original car was still in superb

mechanical condition; however, it was in need of some paint and minor body work. In 2018, the car was entrusted to The Creative Works, a nationally recognized restoration shop dedicated to historic, antique, classic and vintage cars. The team at The Creative Works stripped the car down, perfected the body, and applied a new coat of the correct original color of Opalescent Bronze. Again, all the work performed was documented. In 2019, the car was shipped to Lenox, Massachusetts for use during the summer season. During this period, it was brought to another well-known Jaguar specialist, Donovan Motorcar Service in Lenox for service and proper sorting. More recently, in 2023, the carburetors received a complete rebuild, resulting in a very smooth and responsive driving experience.

While the paint has been beautifully refinished, the interior retains much of its original finishes and trimmings, adding character to this charming, iconic Jaguar. This aspect, combined with the tedious attention paid to the mechanical components, all of which are fully documented, make this XKE exceptional. From time to time, a "flat floor" roadster comes up for sale. Rarely is one available that is not only beautiful in aesthetics, but is regularly used and can be driven to and from shows and exhibitions. Upon a close look one will immediately notice the high degree of design and sophistication expected of the legendary E-Type from Jaguar. As ideal for Jaguar Club of North America events as it is a top-quality example for tours, it represents the finest of the British motoring spirit.

1963 Ford Galaxie 500 Lightweight Hardtop 412

• 1 of only 211 factory Lightweight examples produced

• Original matching numbers R-Code 427/425 HP V-8 engine

• A reported 16,000 original miles

• Featured in the 2019 issue of Muscle Machines

• Borg-Warner T-10 four-speed manual transmission

By 1963, Detroit’s Big Three had produced new vehicles with increasingly powerful and larger-displacement engines that came right up to the 7.0-liter threshold that made them legal in NASCAR, NHRA, and FIA racing series. The newly designed “lightweight” vehicles with their boosted engines created a whole new share in the market, and Ford knew they had to join. Recognizing the need to cater to the growing demand, Ford took

their flagship Galaxie 500 model and developed a lightweight version specifically for street and drag strip racing.

A stripped-down, performance-oriented variant, Ford aimed to reduce weight and improve performance by removing non-essential components and incorporating lightweight materials whenever possible. Built upon a lightweight Ford 300 chassis, which was originally intended for smaller-displacement V-8s and V-6s,

the shell was constructed of fiberglass body panels, which included the hood, fenders, trunk lid, and fender aprons. To further reduce weight, the hood springs, heater, trunk lining and mat, spare wheel and tire, trunk lid torsion bar, jack, lug wrench, one of the horns, armrests, rear ashtrays, courtesy lights, dome lights, and the carpets were all removed. Even the sun visors were fitted with cardboard to reduce weight.

To top off the Lightweight version, Ford placed the legendary, high-performance 427-cubic-inch, 7.0-liter V-8 engine. Known as the R-Code engine, it was specially designed for racing using an aluminum intake manifold, a high-performance carburetor that generated 425 horsepower and 480 pounds of tire melting torque. Complementing the R-Code engine was a T-10 aluminum manual transmission and 4:11 open rear axle.

As 1 of only 211 constructed to meet the NHRA Stock Eliminator class requirements, this ’63 Ford Galaxie 500 Lightweight was built on April 27th, 1963, and sold new by Sauter Motors in Montvale, New Jersey to Barry Noel of New Jersey. Noel would then sell it to Al Roeher, who was a known street racer in the area. Since all 211 R-Code Lightweight Coupes were Corinthian White over a red interior, he decided to disguise his by painting it black. After dusting almost everyone that tried to line up with him, the jig was up, and people finally realized just what Roeher had been running. After no one wanted to race him, Roeher would sell it to a friend, who would paint it back to its original Corinthian White color. At the end of the ‘70s a deal

would be struck, and this car would leave New Jersey for the first time and be welcomed by its new owner in Northern Michigan. Holding onto this Lightweight for well over 30 years, long-time muscle car enthusiasts and business partners Gregg Kophau and Chris Stewart would eventually catch wind of this legendary street racer hiding in a barn. After tracking it down, a deal was made; they took ownership and subsequently overhauled the engine and mechanics to bring it back to proper running order. Retaining all its original components, and even its numbers matching 427/425 V-8 engine, Borg-Warner T-10 four-speed manual transmission, and 9-inch rear axle, it was a match made in heaven. Many of the R-Codes were raced to death in period and replacement parts were used, so it is very rare to find an example like this that retains all its original engine components. Today, the odometer shows just over 16,000 miles, which are believed to be actual due to its chain of ownership and original numbers-matching parts. Featured in multiple magazines and websites, this Ford Galaxie 500 Lightweight is well-known among the Ford faithful. A combination of historical significance, unique features, and limited to just 211 units produced combine to make this example highly sought-after among collectors and enthusiasts alike. It is indeed a seldom seen opportunity to find such a car as being offered here, that came from the factory with the original R-Code and the corresponding muscle under the hood. This Lightweight represents an opportunity to obtain one of the most highly regarded high performance automobiles of the era.

K-Series, the Zephyr line aimed to appeal to a wider customer base. Featuring a sleek and aerodynamic design, the Zephyr V-12 Coupe captivated the public’s imagination with its distinctive flowing lines, streamlined grille, cavernous trunk, and smooth sweeping fenders. The coupe’s design was influenced by the merging Art

Deco movement, characterized by its emphasis on sleekness, symmetry, and modernity. Its elegant proportions and smooth contours set it apart from other cars of the era and contributed to its enduring appeal. Even though it was targeted at mid-class America, much of high society loved the design, with famous actors and stars like Clark Gable, Roger Pryor, and comedian Al Pearce owning their own Zephyrs.

A star in its own right, as it has been seen and cheered on by hundreds of thousands; this illustrious 1937 Lincoln Zephyr V-12 Coupe is best known around the globe as “Black Beauty”, as it is the Zephyr that was used by crime-fighting vigilante the Green Hornet in the 1940 Universal film The Green Hornet. Quite possibly the best 1937 Lincoln Zephyr extant, “Black Beauty” was meticulously restored by Ron Souders and Chuck Hora only using original or NOS parts. Shortly after its restoration was completed, this mighty V-12 would become the prestigious Los Angeles Circle d’Elegance winner and capture multiple other Best in Class awards. Lovingly cared for and kept to a high standard in the current owner's climate-controlled facility, this Lincoln presents remarkably well today. A highly optioned car, this example is well-equipped with a Ford trunk

rack, a Zephyr script “peep” mirror, front fog lamps, a NOS Ford license plate frame, and a Columbia rear axle. “Black Beauty” is also the only Zephyr that features the elegant flying lady hood ornament on the two front fenders. Under the hood lies another rare factory option, as an oil bath air cleaner sits upon the powerful 110-horsepower V-12 engine. The spacious cabin is finished in fine tan leather that is nicely accented with chrome components throughout. The interior is also equipped with a Lincoln radio, which is hidden under the passenger’s seat, with a miniature control dial placed to the left of the ash tray.

Adding to its star status, the Ford Motor Company photographed, measured, and documented this Zephyr for two straight days and used it as the basis for a 1/18 scale model which they released to commemorate their 100th anniversary. Only fitting, along with the sale, one of these exacting 1/18 scale models will accompany the car.

Used by Universal’s the Green Hornet and his trusty sidekick, Kato, this beautifully restored Art Deco star, crime-fighting, 1937 Lincoln Zephyr V-12 Coupe, known around the world as “Black Beauty” is sure to be the center of attention and a phenomenal topic of conversation amongst any collection.

1955 Chevrolet Corvette Roadster 414

• Documented body-off-the-frame restoration by Russ Corvette Restoration

• 1 of only 700 examples produced in 1955

• 1 of only 180 finished in Gypsy Red

• First year of the iconic V-8 Corvette

Chevy’s first-generation Corvette debuted at the Waldorf-Astoria in January of 1953 and immediately captivated audiences, thanks to the vision of GM’s Head of Styling, Harley Earl. Earl watched as service members returned with European sports cars from World War II and he immediately sought to fill the American market’s gaping chasm with his own Special Projects crew and

Chief Engineer, Ed Cole. The fruits of their labor revealed every inch of the American sports car of Earl’s dream, at least on the outside. The racy body, blessed with a curved front end, akin to European sports cars, was animated with long-life headlights enmeshed in wire. The curvaceous bonnet swooped back into a compact tail with perched taillights that hinted at the promise of the decade’s

fins to come, but with subtle, alluring flare. In opposition to its sports car moniker, the early Corvette was merely equipped with a 235-cubicinch, 150-horsepower six-cylinder engine. Only 300 units were produced in 1953 and the 3,640 units in 1954 delivered dismal sales. America’s future favorite sports car was almost tossed away until GM engineer Zora Arkus-Duntov was thrown into the mix. Later dubbed the “father of the Corvette,” Zora campaigned for a V-8 under the hood as well as a manual transmission. The 1955 was introduced with the V-8 engine; manual transmission would be added as an option midway through the production year. With the launch of the 265-cubic-inch OHV V-8 engine mated to a Carter four-barrel carburetor, the Corvette finally had the power to truly compete in the sports car arena. GM merely tested the waters with the 1955, manufacturing only 700 units for the production year, which is the second lowest number Corvette has ever produced. The reception was overwhelming, and production immediately rose to 3,467 units in 1956; that number continued to rise, and the Corvette was catapulted into the automotive stratosphere.

Beautifully restored to its correct and original appearance, this 1955 Chevrolet Corvette Roadster is a true American icon. The car spent nearly its entire life in the Northeast, primarily in New Jersey. It's beautiful and unmistakable red paint made it a coveted car in the local car scene by young and old for years. After being lovingly cared for by its prior owner for nearly 50 years, one of those former youngsters was able to acquire the car in 2017.

Knowning what he had, he took this low-production Corvette straight to Russ Corvette Restoration, LLC in Mount Holly, New Jersey. Steve Russ, a marque expert performed an extensive body-off-the-frame restoration, which is documented by a photo album that contains receipts and photos from the multiyear restoration. Adorned in its original color of Gypsy Red, it stands as 1 of just 180 finished in this color in 1955. Recently finished, everything on this 1955 Corvette is clean and correct, from the straight and flush body panels to the intricately detailed gauges and dash; every element reflects the dedication and expertise invested in the restoration process.

Every aspect of the drivetrain has also been meticulously tended to, ensuring optimal performance and unparalleled open-air driving experience whenever the owner desires. The 195-horsepower 265-cubic-inch V-8 engine is correctly presented and fires right up on command. Awaiting its first judged meet or showfield, the restoration has ensured the preservation of this truly deserving Corvette.

The unique, one-year-only combination of the Corvette roadster body and the first year of the Chevrolet small block V-8 engine, along with 1955’s miniscule production of only 180 Gypsy Red Corvettes, make this 1955 Corvette among the rarest of all Corvettes built. Restored by a well-known specialist and documented the entire way, this iconic red ’55 Roadster is sure to dazzle onlookers and impress at any show where it is judged or displayed.

• Best in Class at the 2012 Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance

the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance, taken part in various tours around the country and has been a resident of multiple prolific collections. Built to special order for W. Weiss of the Sterling Drug Company, the enormous 145-inch chassis for this Lincoln was completed on October 11th, 1937, then sent via ship to Brunn & Company in Buffalo, New York one month later. Measuring nine inches longer than a standard 1938 Model

K, the Victoria Convertible body was custom-built to fit the chassis, resulting in the doors being extended and measuring nearly five feet long. Beautifully proportioned, Brunn’s design integrates the best of the Zephyr-derived aerodynamic styling with custom elements that emulate that of Joseph and Giuseppe Figonis’ work. The most notable custom details bestowed upon this Model K by Brunn & Company include teardrop-shaped white running boards, rear wheel skirts, chrome covers that drop over the window slots when the windows are down, and a V windshield. Other features include dual side-mounted spares with color-key metal casings, a folding rear armrest, a radio, a heater, and beautiful interior woodwork that accentuates the interior cabin.

After residing in several East Coast collections, Chassis K9002 would end up in the collection of Ernest Stern of Pittsburgh in the 1970s. While in his care, this lavish Lincoln would be treated to a comprehensive bodyoff-the-frame restoration at Rick Chris’s shop located in Irwin, Pennsylvania. It would remain in Stern's care until his passing in 1996 when it was then acquired by Don Williams of the world-renowned Blackhawk Collection. Only holding onto it for a year, the next owner would be collector Joe Hayes of Chicago, who would sell it in 2000 to Roger Wilbanks, Sr. of Colorado. Under Mr. Wilbanks’ care, this Model K Victoria Convertible received a new interior consisting of two lovely shades of blue that complement the Cambridge Blue exterior paint and dark blue canvas top wonderfully. After its new interior was installed, this Model K was shown at the 2003 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, won First in Class at the 2007 Rocky Mountain Concours d’Elegance at the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, received a CCCA National First Prize (#2152), and partook in multiple tours, including the Colorado Grand. A faithful servant under the ownership of Wilbanks, the

next registered and current owner would welcome this bespoke Lincoln into his own collection in 2011.

Shortly after taking ownership, the engine bay received a freshening that consisted of a carb rebuild, and the fuel system and other small cosmetic items were attended to. After this was completed in early 2012, it was taken to the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance where it captured Best in Class. Most recently this ’38 Lincoln Model K Victoria Convertible was invited and shown at the 2022 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in celebration of 100 years of the Lincoln Motor Company. Along with being shown, this Lincoln also took part in the 17-mile drive during the Pebble Beach Tour d’Elegance presented by Rolex and was reported to perform without flaw. Along with its showing at Pebble Beach, another highlight the current owner is proud of is tracking down Rick Chris, the person who performed the frame-off restoration for Ernest Stern. Visiting him in his shop in Irwin, Pennsylvania, Chris provided multiple historically significant documents, which included vintage photos of this Lincoln at the end of 1937, an original blueprint drawing from Brunn & Company, as well as a letter dated 1977 from Hermann Brunn talking about this Lincoln and its history.

Proven both on the show field and on the open road, this bespoke Model K Victoria Convertible is presented as a rare opportunity to acquire an exquisite first-class Full Classic® for concours and tours. It stands ready for continued enjoyment and to be invited to prestigious events around the globe. Few automobiles offer the striking lines of the example offered here. A multiple award winner with known history, this custom bodied Lincoln offers a unique opportunity for the new caretaker to acquire an open tourer that will be instantly admired by enthusiasts and discerning collectors everywhere.

1968 Intermeccanica Italia Spyder 416

• Rare Italian flair sports car with American power

• 1 of approximately 500 examples produced

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 50021

• Recent cosmetic and mechanical restoration

• Early production example from the inaugural model year

Costruzione Automobili Intermeccanica, best known simply as Intermeccanica, was established in 1959 in Turin, Italy’s automobile manufacturing capital. Company founder Frank Reisner was a Hungarian-born, American-educated entrepreneur who would later move the company to the United States and finally Canada. In addition to producing and marketing racing parts and

tuning kits, Reisner’s first car produced during the early 1960s was a Formula Junior Monoposto for an American buyer. Reisner also designed and built 21 alloy-bodied, 500cc competition coupes, one of which won its class at the Nürburgring and caused Carlo Abarth’s demand that Fiat block Reisner’s engine supplies. Soon, Intermeccanica participated in the design and construction of

aluminum prototypes and the steel production bodies for the promising Apollo GT project, which ended after just 88 of these very fine road machines were produced.

Undaunted, Reisner developed a new two-seat sports car, initially named “Torino” but subsequently re-branded “Italia” after Ford registered the “Torino” name. Styling was penned by former GM Designer, Bob Cumberford, with a fresh and modern overall theme that has aged incredibly well, influenced by timeless elements of the Ferrari 275 GTB and 400 SA. Ample power for the Italia was delivered by Ford’s latest small-block V-8 engines, initially displacing 302 cubic inches and later the 351 “Cleveland,” as used in the De Tomaso Pantera. Chassis engineering was performed by racing legend John Crosthwaite, using square tubular members welded to the Italia’s hand-built steel body into a single unit, mounting rack and pinion steering, independent front underpinnings, a Mustang live axle at the rear, supported by coil springs and radius rods. Performance was outstanding, comparable to contemporary Ferrari, Maserati, and Lamborghini road cars at a fraction of the price.

The elegant and sporty Italia caught on quickly, with the first cars imported to the U.S. early in 1968 and some 40 sold by March of that same year. Production numbers are not precise, but most frequently cited to be around 500 examples produced. Surviving examples are admired

wherever they appear, whether on the road or at select shows and Concours events.

Acquired by the current owner in 2019, this Intermeccanica Italia Spyder was soon after treated to a cosmetic and mechanical restoration that entailed new front and rear bumpers, a new windshield, and paint. All of the mechanicals were sorted to ensure it was in proper driving order and items such as new air cleaners were also installed to increase reliability on the road.

Finished in striking Fly Yellow with a contrasting brown convertible top and dark brown upholstery, this Intermeccanica Italia convertible is an earlyproduction 1968 model from the inaugural model year. Power is delivered by a 302-cubic-inch Ford V-8 engine equipped with a Holley four-barrel carburetor and mated to a four-speed manual gearbox. Other features include a heater/defroster, power windows, Ford AM/FM radio, with deeply bolstered late-model adjustable seats, and useful instrumentation including a tachometer, ammeter and oil-pressure gauge. Riding on a set of fivespoke alloy wheels mounted to newer Continental ExtremeContact tires, this Italia is also equipped with a Pontiac “Formula” wood-trimmed style steering wheel. Now, as when new, the Intermeccanica Italia delivers exceptional design, reliable American V-8 power, and fascinating history; this example from the inaugural model year marks a truly rare opportunity for astute collectors.

1929 Packard 640 Custom Eight Roadster 417

• AACA National First Prize winner

• One of Packard’s more desirable models

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 170774

• Well-equipped with an array of period-correct accessories

Celebrating 30 years of automotive excellence, Packard’s line for 1929 was aimed at those looking for a prestigious motorcar. The American economy was robust and while the general public was just happy to own a common car, it was still the movers, shakers, and decision-makers that sought the best in their transportation needs. At the heart of every Packard was a reliable, well-engineered engine that was touted as offering simplicity in design, accessibility

in service and maintenance, and economic operation. In addition to superb mechanics, Packard brakes were excellent, with the system being built as part of the chassis, while their own shock-absorbing system was cutting edge for the day. Styling for the 1929 Packard was imposing, as well as it should be. The trademark “Ox-Bow” radiator shell flowed through to the graceful lines of the long hood and sweeping fenders, the double-bar chrome bumpers, and those

massive round headlights. Considered flamboyant, the 1929 Packard 640 Custom Eight Roadster was a classy two-seater with a rumble seat, that sat upon a long 140-inch wheelbase chassis that was typically reserved for large and commanding sevenpassenger enclosed bodies. It was the epitome of the Twenties with Packard’s usual balance of flair and mechanical refinement, which endears it to today’s collectors as one of the more desirable models of the marque's offerings.

An excellent example of one of Packard’s most sought-after models comes this 1929 Packard 640 Custom Eight Roadster which has been handsomely and thoughtfully restored. The body is robed in a charming cream color that is accented by black fenders, elegant wire wheels, and frame aprons. An already attractive work of art, its curb appeal is further enhanced with an array of period-correct accessories, which include a pair of side-mounted spare tires draped with cloth covers, a folding luggage rack with wooden slats, wind wings, dual

cowl-mounted lights, and a searchlight attached to the driver’s side. The front is topped with a pair of Trippe Speedlights, a radiator stone guard, and a goddess of speed mascot. The Brewster Green exterior accents spill over into the interior, as it is lined in a fitting green leather upholstery both in the main cabin, as well as the rumble seat. This Roadster has been well-maintained under multiple stewards and presents very well. Like the rest of this Series 640, the powerful 104-horsepower 285-cubic-inch eight-cylinder engine and threespeed manual transmission have been thoroughly gone through leaving it as an ideal choice for CCCA and other classic car tours. A recipient of an AACA National First Prize, which is proudly displayed on the radiator stone guard, this well-cared-for 1929 Packard 640 Roadster in its charming color scheme is ready to give its next owner and passenger many unforgettable memories both on the road and at events around the country.

The charming yet powerful 356 ignited Porsche’s legacy as the greatest German sports car, but its continued development cemented that reputation.

• From an important Texas Porsche collection

tan top and interior, this 1963 Porsche 356B 1600 S Cabriolet boasts the desirable Reutter-designed T6 revision. Porsche has never been a marque to mess with a good thing. Like its long-lived successor, the 911, the 356 was continually refined and thoughtfully polished year after year until it reached sheer perfection. The later T6 variant of the 356B is a testament to that credo. The Porsche 356B was unveiled at the 1959 Frankfurt Auto Show sporting a new

sheet metal design that augmented the alluringly curved front lid and rounded fenders with raised headlamps, front vent windows, and raised front and rear bumpers for parking convenience. Later T6 variants, as offered here, additionally delivered a larger front boot lid, attractive twin engine-cooling grilles, a larger chrome bonnet handle as well as enhanced visibility through a larger windshield and rear window and a more functional rearview mirror. The instrument panel was redesigned, the steering wheel and column were refreshed, and the fuel bay was conveniently relocated to the right front wing to eliminate the need to open the front lid when pumping gas.

The tweaked powertrain of the 1600 Super raised compression for an enhanced 75 horsepower that was 25 percent more powerful than the base 1600 flat-four engine; this was mated to the raceready four-speed synchromesh transmission that also boasted an upgraded gearbox. The drum brakes were improved in this revision and the Solex carburetors had already been eschewed in favor of more reliable Zenith carburetors. The result was Porsche’s finest 356 to date and the Cabriolet offered unrivaled comfort compared to its predecessors. The rag-top beauty was described by Porsche as “a pleasant blend of convenience and beauty is found in the cabriolet with its convertible soft-top—representative and persuaded in its sporty elegance.” When it comes to sheer driver enjoyment, nothing in the Porsche lineup of the time comes close to the 356 Cabriolet, and this beautiful example is no exception. Offered for the first time at auction from an important Porsche collection out of Houston, Texas, this 1963 Porsche

356B 1600 S (Super) Cabriolet boasts a highly correct and accurate restoration. The original ivory and black interior has been redone in a meticulously tailored, tan leather interior with matching cabriolet top and tonneau cover, complementing the Pascha Red interior accents. The flooring has been replaced with the correct German vinyl square weave carpeting and the striking gauges and radio are in lovely, working condition. Complete with emergency equipment, jack, Texas title and a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, this car is equipped for the open road or a fine collection. According to the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, Chassis 158540 was completed June 21, 1963, and was equipped with a 1600 Super flat-four-cylinder engine, and was mated to a four-speed manual gearbox. While not original to the car, the engne and transmission are the correct dates and equipment for the original factory specifications when the car first rolled out of Stuttgart to make its way to our shores. The 356 Super engine bay offers a very tidy presentation. Offered with a beautiful restoration in stunning Pascha Red and elegantly congruous tan, this sporting Cabriolet is primed for the ultimate open-air drive along the coast. It is an exceptionally well-presented German road car capable of pleasing today's open sports car enthusiast. For anyone looking for a classy vintage sports car or immediate entry into the Porsche Club, this is it. Whether filling a gap in your Porsche collection or just as a way to have more fun on the weekends carving up some twisty roads with a view of the sky above, one would be hard-pressed to find a more suitable or more attractive 356 than the example offered here.

1970 Dodge Charger 500 419

• Recipient of a rotisserie restoration

• Numbers matching example in the desirable color Plum Crazy (FC7)

VIN: XP29N0G157177

• Accompanied by a large binder of receipts and invoices

Known for its distinctive design, performance, and role in popular culture, the Dodge Charger became an American muscle car classic the day it was unveiled. First introduced in 1966 as a response to the growing popularity of muscle cars during the era, the Charger would be based on the Chrysler B platform. With much success, the second generation of the Charger, which is arguably the most iconic and recognizable, would debut in 1968 and last till

1970. The design solidified the Charger’s place in automotive history with an aggressive and aerodynamic styling that incorporated a much-loved “hidden headlamp” design.

The second generation came about at a time when many automakers began to realize that sheer horsepower was not enough to win on the tracks of NASCAR, even if the cars were pushing blistering speeds. To keep up with the competitors, the

second-generation Charger was selected for the design to help with aerodynamics on the track. To meet NASCAR requirements at the time of selling at least 500 units to the public, Chrysler released a “500” edition example. Noticing that NASCAR wasn’t paying close attention to how many examples were actually being built, it is widely agreed that Dodge got away with only building 392 units, and not 500. A rare and desirable second-generation model, this 1970 Dodge Charger 500 was the recipient of a rotisserie restoration and found a new lease on life. Wearing one of the most desirable colors of all muscle cars from all brands, the body was repainted in its original Plum Crazy (FC7) color, while the top was finished with a new white vinyl top. Well-detailed, the paint and chrome present nicely and draw attention wherever the car is driven. The body rides on newer classic BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires, which complement the overall appearance. Matching the white top, the interior is fitted with factory correct white vinyl bucket seats divided by a faux woodgrain center console that houses the three-speed automatic transmission shifter. Above the center console and under the dash, lies a modern-day Alpine stereo system. All of the gauges

and interior appointments are correct and present as they would when they left the factory. This car has new carpet, seats, gauges, dash, headliner, door panels and cushions for all seats, front and rear.

Under the hood lies a correct and clean numbersmatching 383-cubic-inch Magnum V-8 engine that is capable of producing 335 horsepower. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a numbers-matching TorqueFlite 727 three-speed automatic transmission. Equipped with a Sure Grip limited slip differential, power steering, rear power brakes and discs in the front, the next owner will be confident and comfortable while roaring down the road. The engine bay is correct and shows as new. Along with the sale of this 1970 Charger 500, the next owner will receive a large binder filled with receipts and invoice records from the restoration and maintenance upkeep over the years.

The Charger gained prominence in pop culture, appearing in movies and TV shows, most notably as the “General Lee” in the TV Series “The Dukes of Hazzard”. Offered from the last year of the iconic second-generation Charger, this nicely restored example is mechanically sound and ready to be enjoyed by its next owner on the road or at a show.

Engine No: 1657

• Known history and provenance including the collections of D. Cameron Peck and Al Ferrara

• Retains its original chassis, engine and body

• Documented restoration to exceptional standards

• Eligible for concours, tours and important events worldwide

Isotta Fraschini vividly captures all the enchanting grandeur of a bygone era, when luxury marques collaborated with coachbuilders who were among the greatest artists of their time. This nearmythical level of craftsmanship is difficult to fathom in our mass consumption, disposable society. These automobiles were made

• Highly regarded in Isotta Fraschini circles as one of the most striking examples

• Myriad of unique, one-off features; The pinnacle of Italian luxury car design

not only to last but to be cherished. Fraschini produced less than 2,500 cars in its brief, innovative history and their cars continue to be among the most desirable collectible automobiles in the world. The fact that any of their pre-war automobiles survived is a miracle, largely made possible by their export to North America.

This numbers-matching original engine, body and chassis, 1930 Isotta Fraschini Tipo 8A S Roadster, custom bodied by the incomparable Carrozzeria Castagna, is one of those rare survivors and has endured intact thanks to two historic collectors and the current owner who has lavished the ultimate restoration on this rare automobile.

The history of Isotta Fraschini is relatively short but significant, which has resulted in an increasingly fewer number of these automobiles left in the world. Cesare Isotta and the Fraschini brothers started an automobile repair and racing operation in 1899 but found their true métier when they began manufacturing luxury automobiles. They would earn a reputation for innovation as the first manufacturer of the straight-eight-cylinder engine and for their early introduction of the overhead cam. They debuted this car, their Tipo 8, at the 1919 Paris Salon and the brand became an overnight sensation that quickly garnered a following with Hollywood royalty. Prized automobile to Rudolph Valentino and Clara Bow, it would also be featured in the glamorous sagas of F. Scott Fitzgerald and detective novels of Raymond Chandler. A Tipo 8A, bodied by Castagna, lit up the silver screen in Billy Wilder’s opus Sunset Boulevard as the treasured vessel of aging silent film star, Norma Desmond. The Tipo 8A was an improvement on many levels from its Tipo 8 predecessor and boasted the most powerful straight-eight-cylinder engine of its time; at 7.3-litres it was capable of a then-whopping 93 miles per hour.

However, it was the luxury coachwork of Carrozzeria Castagna of Milan that set many Isotta Fraschinis apart. Castagna epitomized the old-world luxury coachbuilder. Steeped in traditional craftsmanship derived from their days as luxury carriage builders for the royal heads of Italy after acquiring the Ferrari Coachbuilding Company in 1849, the firm inevitably evolved into a coachbuilder for automobiles. In no time, Castagna was at the apex of opulent coachbuilding and remained so until World War II. A mere glance at the woodwork, brightwork, German silver, and artisan detailing on this car confirms the assumption that this was one of the most grandiose cars of the gilded age. At the time Ercole Castagna inherited the Milan factory, it boasted 400 artisan employees and its own chrome and nickel-plating department. They designed the first double-phaeton coach with side doors. Their work graced the cars of royalty and tycoons from around the world. Over time, Castagna became synonymous with Isotta Fraschini and was said to be to Fraschini what Murphy was to Duesenberg, with even more luxurious panache. With Carrozzeria Castagna’s artisan coachwork and Isotta Fraschini’s formidable powertrain, the magnificent Tipo 8A Roadster fetched an even higher price tag than a Model J Duesenberg. Only 950 Tipo 8As were completed over their production run from 1925 to 1931, which makes this implausible survivor all the rarer. Unfortunately, the ravages of World War II took their toll on Italy, Isotta Fraschini, and Castagna. Their factory in Milan was bombed off the map. Despite

their best efforts, neither company would ever truly rise from the ashes following the war. In fact, this particular Tipo 8A S Roadster, bodied by Castagna, is among the last produced.

Chassis 1657 is a car of well-documented, serious provenance and has a narrative quite as compelling as that of Isotta and Castagna. The delivery plate on the driver’s side dash confirms the car was delivered new to Isotta Motors of New York City. Extensive research traces early ownership history through Mrs. Sterling Linder-Davis of Cleveland’s Sterling Linder-Davis Department Store to Thomas B. Wolf of Winnetka, Illinois. From there, the car entered the collection of D. Cameron Peck who was one of the early influential classic car collectors in the United States; at its pinnacle, the collection was one of the largest in the world until he auctioned his entire collection in 1951. The next owner was James S. Howard who registered the Isotta with the Classic Car Club of America in 1956. Chassis 1657 then landed in the hands of Joe Loecy, Jr. of Chardon, Ohio who lovingly kept the car for the next 25 years. Al Ferrara had been biding his time until Loecy was ready to sell. When he was, the car found a new home in the world-class collection of Al Ferrara of Gate Mills, Ohio in 1984. In the CCCA magazine, Torque, the fabulous Isotta Fraschini was featured in the summer 1989 issue. Al restored the car and proudly put it on display at the Michigan Grand Classic in Dearborn where it garnered First Prize and was granted Senior Badge #1280. Chassis 1657 would spend the next many years in the Ferrara Collection alongside other singularly important classic era automobiles.

A new chapter in this Isotta’s illustrious history would find the car eventually making its way into another collection of significant classic cars. Recognizing not just the beauty, but the importance of 1657 retaining its original engine, body and chassis and being adorned with bespoke features, it was determined it was deserving of another world-class restoration. A multi-year meticulous and extensive restoration ensued. Beneath the bonnet, the original engine has been completely rebuilt with correct piston rods and bearings; the original clutch and radiator have been rebuilt. The stunning red burgundy paint is fresh and the brightwork, including extensive German silver, gleams like new. The interior was expertly conducted by Tailored Trim out of New Philadelphia, Ohio and the regal Isotta is absolutely primed for the world’s greatest concours. As documented through extensive research, this dazzling Tipo 8A S boasts myriad unique styling features that only add to its rarity and worth. This is the only known example with this styling feature; the beltline runs parallel to the doors, the lower portion dips and then flows to the rear of the body. The bumpers are also quite rare and are one of only three cars known to have this particular styling component. While most Castagna Tipo 8As carry straight chrome bars, this bar has two striking, extruding tube-shaped bumpers, with angled lower bars that each concludes in wing tips; the effect gives the front end of the car the impression of flight, which is quite captivating. The striking radiator stone guard is also rare in that it is only known to exist on a mere handful of cars; the triple concentric teardrop design makes for an incredibly dynamic

focal point for this incredible automobile. Other marvelous details abound including the wooden and German silver storage boxes that grace the inlaid wood and German silver running boards. Every detail is as aesthetically stunning as it is functional. The taillights have an enchanting starburst pattern. The rumble seat beckons you for a joyride and is perched above mounted double tires and wheels. Restoration has resulted in a correct presentation of simply immaculate condition.

Robed in a burgundy as rich as le Romanée Conti with a black full-length fender line and trimmed with magnificent brightwork, German silver, and woodworking, this Castagna-bodied Isotta is one of the most thoughtfully appointed cars of its era.

The cockpit is dressed in a stately black leather interior and carpeting. This splendid Isotta is riding on chrome wheels, rimmed in matching burgundy, wrapped in pitch-perfect whitewall tires. The exclusive ownership group of important, rare and attractive Italian Classics is something many never have the opportunity to join. Hailing from the most noted of collections, this Isotta Fraschini 8A S Roadster, retaining its original engine, body and chassis, encapsulates the peerless grandeur and unrivaled craftsmanship of the most glamorous era of automobile history. If you have ever pondered what luxury coachbuilding is all about, this is it, and the cumulative effect is simply breathtaking.

1970 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Roadster 421

• A three-owner car, with 41 years of single ownership

• Complete numbers matching example with original spot welds and notches

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 11304412015422

• Comprehensive restoration performed by Unique Cars of Palm Beach, Florida

• Finished in original factory color 670G Light Ivory

Mercedes' debut of the 230SL, the new W113 chassis, captivated the world with a sleek, elegant sportscar that would come to define the German marque’s style for decades. A serious and modern departure from the curvy silhouette of its predecessor, the W113 chassis delivered a look of clean, sexy lines compounded by a vast leap in performance that lived up to the “superlicht” SL name

after the eight-year reign of the 190SL’s sluggish four-cylinder. The captivating angular physique and nuanced concave ‘pagoda’ top didn’t just steal hearts; the iconic design ensured that the W113’s allure would only grow with age. The W113 would be comprised of the 230, 250 and the continually refined 280SL was firmly perched at the apex of this legacy. More than half a century on, it’s as timeless

today as it was the morning it rolled out of Stuttgart. After the performance and financial chasm between the 300SL and the 190SL, the world was ready for an approachable SL that could perform like a true sportscar and look good doing it. The first iteration of the W113, the 230SL, over-delivered on that score, and sales of the introductory year bested 190SL’s total sales. It had looks and unparalleled performance, and it was actually the first sports car ever built and tested with a “safety body.” The 230SL truly was innovative in myriad ways for its day. The W113 chassis would reign through 1971 and its final generation, the 280SL, would be the ultimate swan song. When the 280SL hit the market in late 1967, the already lauded fuel-injected overhead-cam, inline six-cylinder engine was expanded from a 2.3-litre to a 2.8-litre, which delivered 180 horsepower. The front wishbone and single pivot swing axle rear suspension handled better than any Mercedes to date. The 280SL continued to boast unparalleled Mercedes-Benz luxury with plush, comfortable seats, and striking legible gauges. New safety features offered an energy-absorbing steering column, advanced seat belts, and new taillights with yellow turn signals. The pagoda generation of the flagship SL delivered speed, handling, and an entirely unique look that’s simultaneously timeless yet represents a snapshot of its era. It was luxurious and comfortable, fast and nimble, and safe on the road, but all that would likely have faded into the pages of history if it weren’t for the fact that the 280SL was aesthetically one of the most iconic sportscars to ever don a three-spoke star.

One of the finer 280SLs available, this example has been meticulously restored by marque experts

Unique Cars of Palm Beach, Florida. Retaining much of its originality, such as the original and rarely seen spot welds and notches under the hood and trunk lids, it's finished in its original factory color of Light Ivory 670G with a black soft top and color-matched hardtop, all of which is paired with a lavish red leather interior. The original owner, a resident of California, would amazingly retain ownership until 2011 before selling it to its second private owner who would keep it until 2021. Under the stewardship of the current, and just third owner, is when this astonishing 280SL would be restored.

A numbers-matching example, the 2.8-litre Bosch fuel-injected inline six-cylinder engine presents remarkably well and is impressively correct and performs to a very high standard. Mated to an automatic transmission, the ease of drive is elevated and incredibly smooth. To add to its drivability, the factory Frigikin air-conditioner was restored and equipped with a modern compressor, ensuring it always blows cold air-conditioning, even on the hottest days. The Becker Grand Prix radio with Bluetooth was sent to Becker Sound and also restored. Other equipment includes a Hirschmann automatic antenna.

Accompanying this 280SL Roadster, is a tool roll kit, spare tire tucked away in the trunk, original owner’s manual, and service booklet, which has been filled out by the first owner. Offered here is a stunning example that will grant you access to an array of exclusive events, as its restoration and preservation elevate this example well beyond its peers. This 280SL 'Pagoda' is the ultimate drop-top Mercedes that exhibits undeniable elegance and class, whether in motion or exhibited in a collection.

• Finished in factory-correct Poppy Red exterior and Black Pony interior

Ford's Mustang is tailored to be anything from a gentle in-town ladies' car to an impressive 130-mph highway performer. "Undoubtedly its almost infinitely variable personality is one of the car's chief attractions..." - William S Stone, 'The Ford Mustang'. The secret of the Mustang's success was a broad appeal that extended beyond the target market thanks to a great value-formoney package combining sporty looks, decent economy, and

• Well-optioned with power steering, wood steering wheel, Rally-Pac gauges and factory-correct air-conditioning

brisk performance. Mustangs could be ordered in specifications ranging from six-cylinder 'economy' to V-8-powered luxury, while customers could choose from an extensive range of factory options, with the result that seldom are two Mustangs identical. Ford created a new class of cars almost overnight with the introduction of the Mustang partway through the 1964 season in April, catching the rest of the U.S. auto industry off guard. A brainchild of the

famous Lee Iacocca, the Mustang is one of the most remarkable automotive success stories of modern times and arguably the pinnacle of his long career with Ford.

This Mustang Fastback, according to its original data plate and VIN number, was manufactured at the Dearborn, Michigan assembly plant on March 26th of 1965. It is finished attractively in the same color scheme that it left the factory, Poppy Red (code C) with black (code 66) interior. A quality early Fastback Mustang is very desirable. Locating a correct, unmodified car such as this in great condition can be a challenge. This Mustang has survived not only the rigors of time but also the temptation of its owner to not convert it into a GT or Shelby clone, as many have done, making this example extremely collectable. In its present and original form, the clean lines of the 2+2 Fastback with folding rear seats represent the purest form of the design – a design that has become iconic and is coveted by enthusiasts worldwide.

The optional factory equipment of this Mustang enhances its classic good looks, starting with a set of correct “Stamped Steel” chrome-plated wheels, complete with correct red center caps and lug nuts, giving it a sporty, muscle car look. The paint is deep and glossy, with good panel fit and finish. The interior is set up perfectly with optional luxury (Pony) black interior as again reflected on its body tag as factory-correct code 66. The Pony interior

option is a huge improvement to any Mustang, consisting of much more than just the upholstery. It also includes a woodgrain instrument bezel and glove box, upgraded door panels and inner door handles, a three-spoke woodgrain steering wheel, and lights on the backs of the doors. Also present is a factory console that is correct at the front to accept the much-welcomed factory Ford underdash air-conditioning unit. This car was also ordered with tinted glass. The optional Rally-Pac clock and tachometer cluster adds to the sportiness of the cockpit. The trunk area features the correct pattern mat and has a matching spare tire cover as well. Under the hood is highly original in appearance with no modern “enhancements” to detract from the factory-original theme of the car. The original 289, C-Code engine with factory dual exhaust delivers lively performance with plenty of torque mated to Ford’s venerable C-4 automatic transmission, giving the car good manners and making it enjoyable to operate both on the open road or around town. The Ford Mustang remains an iconic American classic close to the hearts of those who remember them new and the younger generations who pine for the opportunity to own one now. It is hard to imagine a better combination of originality, condition, colors, and desirable factory options than this car possesses. This highly-optioned example is stylish, ready to show and with air-conditioning it will be comfortable to drive any time of the year.

Ford Motor Company had long realized that success at the racetrack was integral to success in the showroom. "Win on Sunday, sell on Monday" became a winning marketing strategy as much as a slogan. During the 1960s, most of the focus in motorsports was on NASCAR

and NHRA drag racing where acceleration and high sustained speeds were the name of the game. However, that would soon change with the introduction of the 'Trans-Am Series' by the Sports Car Club of America. The Ford Mustang Boss 302 was a high-performance, limited

production model offered for only two years to homologate the car for this new series. The Trans-Am Series proved to be wildly popular and featured Challengers, ‘Cudas, Camaros, Cougars, and Mustangs as well as some of the most famous names in all of motorsports like Roger Penske, Mark Donohue, Dan Gurney, George Follmer, and Parnelli Jones. The culmination of Ford's efforts was realized when the Bud Moore-prepared Ford Mustang Boss 302 driven by Parnelli Jones won the Trans-Am Championship in 1970. The success of the Boss 302 on the track drove traffic to the showroom and sales took off.

For the Boss 302, the entire vehicle package was geared toward road racing where handling was at a premium, and it included a competition suspension, lower ride height, front disc brakes, larger sway bars, heavier-duty spindles, and reinforced shock towers. With the high-revving, solid-lifter Boss 302 V-8 engine and its free-breathing Cleveland-style heads mated to a close-ratio four-speed, Ford knew it had a winner. The Boss 302 was as successful on the showroom floor as it was on the racetrack, and just over 7,000 were produced in 1970. Unlike the Boss 429, whose only option was a choice of color, the Boss 302 was available with an array of options, making highly optioned examples today the most sought-after and the most desirable.

Finished in one of the most striking and iconic colors that Ford has ever offered, this exceedingly rare example is 1 of just 42 Grabber Blue Boss 302s. It is one of the highest optioned 302s to leave the Dearborn factory with an astonishing 14 options. Documented by an Elite Marti Report, the long list of options includes a rear deck spoiler, four-speed close ratio manual transmission, traction-Lox differential, F60x15 belted tires with raised white letters, shaker hood scoop, sport

slats, console, power steering, AM radio, décor group, tinted glass-complete, heavy-duty battery, Magnum 500 chrome wheels, tachometer and, to finish out the list, a seldom seen and highly desirable white interior.

Starting with a very solid, rust-free, and original running example, this Boss 302 received a no-expensespared rotisserie restoration that was carried out by marque experts Gary Paine of New Albany and Boss specialist Rick Parker of Signature Auto in Columbus, Ohio. The entire car was disassembled, and every part was either restored, re-plated, or replaced with date code correct NOS parts. The body was taken down to bare metal and painted to the highest standards, and the unique Boss 302 high-performance Blackout treatment was correctly applied to the hood, taillight panel, and deck lid as well as the distinctive reflective black "hockey stick" stripes. The factory-correct white interior was completely refurbished, and the drivetrain and mechanicals were all disassembled and fully rebuilt to exacting standards. For the lifeline, this Boss has a date code correct, January 9, 1970, DOZE-6015-B Boss 302 cubic-inch V-8 engine, and a numbers-matching transmission and rear end.

Having been carefully driven and always stored in a climate-controlled facility since its restoration, this Boss has most recently won a Best in Class award at the 2022 Lake Mirror Classic Concours d’Elegance and had a 2nd place finish in the Mustang class at a stacked AACA meet in Venice, Florida. Both trophies will accompany the sale of this Boss. Ready to leave its current stable located in the sunny state of Florida, this meticulously restored, highly optioned Grabber Blue Mustang Boss 302 is ready to continue dazzling onlookers and impressing everyone whether at an event or on the road.

• Attractive black over black color scheme

The Ferrari Dino is one Italian sportscar that has far surpassed its designer’s wildest expectations. It has come to be regarded as one of the most captivating silhouettes ever produced by Ferrari with an over-delivery of sheer driver enjoyment. This particular 1973 Dino GTS, elegantly styled in a timeless black-on-black is a definitive example of the car’s striking beauty. Nevertheless, the Dino was a departure from Ferrari and wasn’t even badged with

the prancing horse. The Maranello firm built the Dino to compete with the likes of Porsche’s relatively affordable 911 and its peers. It was Ferrari’s first V-6 production car and was built as a road-going sportscar, not a racecar civilized for the road at a more palatable price point. Although it was produced in relatively larger numbers and was treated as an offshoot of Ferrari initially, it is highly prized by collectors today and Dino’s desirability and fiscal worth only

continues to rise year after year. The project began as a labor of love for Enzo Ferrari who named the Dino after the nickname of his beloved deceased son. Designed by Pininfarina’s Aldo Brovarone and manufactured at Scaglietti, the lithe body of the Dino was mounted onto a steel tubular frame with independent wishbone suspension. With just 153 examples built, the Dino 206 GT began production in February 1968 after a tepid debut at the 1967 Turin Motor Show because it lacked the power associated with Ferrari. The 246 GT would change all that a year later and would make the sports car the Dino we all yearn for today. In 1969, the Dino 246 GT was unveiled with a two-inch longer wheelbase, a revised interior, and a more powerful 2.4-litre engine that featured dual-overhead cams, two valves per cylinder, triple Weber carburetors, a five-speed gearbox, and four-wheel disc brakes. The Dino 246 was an overwhelming success and led to the production of 2,295 GT examples. The Dino continued to evolve and was refined in development and the 246 GTS “Spider” was unveiled at the 1972 Geneva Motor Show with a new Targa-style, removable roof panel, which would only enhance the curvaceous styling that captured the public’s imagination. The Spider was incredibly well-received, especially on our shores, and 1,274 GTS Dinos would be handcrafted between 1972 and 1974. The 246 bested its aimed competitor, Porsche’s 911S, with more than 12 miles per hour in top speed and narrowly outperformed in 0 to 50 acceleration with an impressive 5.5 seconds. This was just further proof that Ferrari could go head-tohead with Porsche in producing a more affordable sportscar that would optimally perform and still

deliver all the Italian design panache for which the marque was adored. With ideal weight distribution, superior responsive handling, and a sports car that was just ridiculously fun to drive, the Dino exceeded Ferrari’s initial hopes for the car and its legacy has only continued to soar over the course of the past 50 years.

Classicly dressed in black over black and restored to a very high standard, this enchanting 1973 Ferrari Dino 246 GTS boasts a mere 24,000 miles. Chassis 05848 finished production in Maranello in white on red. It has since undergone a world-class restoration that boasts a flawless black body only enhanced by gleaming brightwork, quad exhaust pipes, and the original Cromodora magnesium wheels with Dinobadged centers. The restored cockpit stars a pair of Daytona-style ‘chairs’ reupholstered in black with red centers. The ‘chairs’ are among the most desirable factory options for the Dino, and they beautifully contrast with the clean, black cabin, which includes a stainless, three-spoke, leather-wrapped steering wheel with a Dino-badged center and understated, restored gauges as well as an original radio. Chassis 05848 finished production in Maranello in March 1973 and is still accompanied by its original owner’s manual, toolkit and jack, which rest inside the correctly carpeted trunk compartment. Beneath the bonnet lid is a spare tire wrapped around a spare Cromodora magnesium wheel. This heartbreakingly beautiful Dino has it all. Just 1 of only 1,274 GTS models produced, this carefully restored black-onblack Dino has recently undergone major servicing and is primed to join a world-class collection, delight at myriad concours or deliver a joy-filled drive beneath its open roof.

1934 Ford V-8 Roadster

Ford introduced their all-new V-8 roadster in 1932, and the public could not have been happier. They finally could get a low-priced V-8 car that was sporty and classy enough to be more than just a speed statement on the road. Its sleek design, combined with the power of the V-8 engine, made it a desirable car for enthusiasts and everyday drivers alike. Even though many saw the roadster being perfectly fine how they were, it didn’t take long for the hot rod community to start adding their own personal touches to both the engines and the bodies. With 5,071 produced, and combined with the hot rod trend, it makes it hard to find an original or correct restored example today, like this one.

We’ve all heard about a car with a story…well, this car IS the story. The White Pearl is at the center, with legendary customizer John North on one side, and legendary entertainer Gene Pitney on the other. John North from Hartford, Connecticut was much like the George Barris of the East Coast, developing a stellar reputation for building custom cars from the early 1950s. In

1957, a windfall of money came his way, and he bought himself a brand new 1957 Ford Fairlane two-door hardtop. He ordered it with the optional “E” code engine with solid lifters and two four-barrel carburetors straight from the factory. John also chose the optional three-speed manual transmission, for which he chose the floor-shift position. Most folks would just start driving - but not John North.

When the car was delivered to him brand-new, he began drawing and fabricating a comprehensive customization. Keep in mind that during the 1950s when customizing cars was booming throughout the United States, most projects began in a junkyard or maybe a friend’s parts stash, simply because most did not have the cash to begin a project with a brand-new car.

John North knew exactly the look he wanted and named the car “White Pearl”. That meant that the car received 16 coats of very special Lincoln metallic white paint with real gold leaf trim throughout. Throw in a custom white tuck and roll interior, tuck and roll carpeting, tuck and roll steering wheel cover, tuck and roll dashboard, and even a tuck and roll tonneau that covered the rear seat from the rear windowsill to the back of the front seat to give the car a special “two-seater” look. On the firewall, he painted his nickname “Moose”. By 1957, the idea of just chopping, channeling, and sectioning cars was becoming somewhat passe, and the real innovators like John were including details like the custom taillights, grille, intricate fender skirts, and the custom dummy spotlights on “White Pearl”.

John added lake exhaust pipes and even a TV in the dashboard. Little details like the knobs on the instruments were all specially made with triplelayer plastics and turned on a lathe. Not only was the interior completely tucked and rolled with the dashboard but even the carpet was tucked and rolled. The name “White Pearl” was autographed on the front fenders exactly the way he wanted, and even the wheels were equipped with special flipper

hubcaps. The car seemed to take a first prize at every show it went to in the late ‘50s, and the ocean of trophies in the family photos is impressive. The car was featured in nearly every single automotive magazine multiple times, with many of those magazines provided with your purchase. Today, it remains highly original throughout, with only a single minor repair ever done in the trunk area, and it still features the all-original chrome, trim, and complete drivetrain.

What makes this car an even more interesting story is that John’s wife was a cousin of legendary singer Gene Pitney, and when he saw the car he begged John North to sell it to him. John told him no, but finally caved in and sold the car to Gene, who was at the peak of his career. Gene Pitney was known to take White Pearl to all of his shows that were within driving distance, but one night he put on a lackluster performance and one of the patrons decided to show his displeasure by shooting a couple bullets through the side window. John North’s son, Mark, validated it - That was the day Gene Pitney decided to sell the car.

Talk about a car with provenance and history - this unique Ford is well-documented, highly original right down to the paint, and today, stands just as cool as it was in 1957 and ’58 when John North’s singular vision became reality. The pioneering age of American customs led the way for today's artisans to create our now much loved restomods and custom creations. This is your opportunity to own a foundational piece of history in John North's "White Pearl".

1973 Porsche 911E 2.4 Coupe 427

• Documented comprehensive restoration

• Fitted with Sport Seats and houndstooth inserts

• Equipped with the desirable 2.4L “green case”

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

• Interior work completed by Autobahn Interiors in California

Throughout the 20th century, little has inspired as much innovation and social transformation, along with critical debate amongst designers, artists, and theorists as the automobile. Porsche, among its many achievements, released what became one of the world's most revered production cars in 1964. The 911 offered a driving experience unlike anything else while its shape soon became one of the most influential styling forms in car design.

MFI injection engine

Even today, rarely has an automobile inspired the kind of passion in both car enthusiasts and the general public as the 911. The 911 continually evolved into a more sophisticated, powerful, and capable driving machine, as well as a reliable and usable car. 1969 ushered in the first major changes to the model lineup. The unique and successful rear engine layout remained, as did the same basic styling. The rear track and wheelbase grew, while

the overall length remained the same as the earlier cars. Mechanical fuel injection debuted as well as a new trim level, 911E. The 911E received its name from Einspritzung, the German term for injection. The 911E, which replaced the 911L, carried various improvements both in finishes, including a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and mechanicals, such as vented disc brakes. The model years 1971-73 consisted of the same trim levels; all, however, received larger 2.4L engines with MFI (U.S.market specific).

This well restored ‘73 911E is finished in a subtle and attractive white with contrasting green interior. The interior has been restored by one of the top shops in the country, Autobahn Interiors of California, where new carpets, a headliner, trim, and green leather were fitted. Furthermore, the car was tastefully fitted with Sport Seats with houndstooth inserts adding to its massive eye appeal. Mechanically, the car carries a 2.4L “green case” engine with MFI injection system that, in accordance with the Porsche 911 Red Book,

is believed to be matching. The underside is as fresh as the top side, with components appearing to have been replaced or freshened. The car wears Bilstein shocks and rides on Fuchs alloy wheels restored by Harvey Weidman, wrapped in Vredestein Sprint Classic 185/70 HR15 tires. A binder of receipts detailing the restoration is included in the sale. Celebrating its 60th anniversary, the Porsche 911 remains as coveted as ever. The current-generation 911 serves the driver seeking the latest in today’s technology while each of the previous iterations provides a glimpse into the evolution of what has undoubtedly become a masterpiece of design and performance. The original F-Body 911, without question, remains one of the most historically significant automobiles of all time and the final year examples like this one are highly sought-after. This well-sorted 911E in handsome colors is ready to be enjoyed on backroads, driveways, and concours show fields alike.

1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Restomod 428

• A fresh no-expense-spared restomod build with high-octane performance

• A perfect blend of modern and old-school flair

• Six-speed TR6060 manual transmission with twin disc clutch

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 138176K183881

• Built by noted pro shop Ultra Motorsports

• Supercharged LSA 6.2-liter crate engine that produces 560 HP

Introduced on September 26th, 1963, the Chevelle would live a short life only lasting until 1977. During that short run, it was offered in many different body styles, everything from a two-door coupe to a four-door wagon. In 1966, just three years after its birth, the Chevelle was redesigned, and the SS model became an instant fan favorite. Only a year later, the SS was redesigned again,

• Custom leather interior by Interiors by Thomas

with the ’66 body style only lasting for a year-long production; thus, the value of the car gained traction in the collector car community and continues to grow in popularity in the hot rod and custom world. Taking a stock body and greatly enhancing its value, the professionals at Ultra Motor Sports in Fort Wayne, Indiana completely transformed this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS into the

ultimate Restomod build.

A complete ground-up build by noted pro shop Ultra Motorsports, this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS is the recipient of a restomod transformation that would take over three years from start to finish and was completed the summer of 2022. Starting with a rust-free donor body, this Chevelle was transformed into a menace haunting any other build or contender that dare dwell in its presence. Trying to keep the look as original as possible, the body was hardly modified, and its stance was only improved by being slightly lowered. The lifeline in this build would be a massive 6.2-liter supercharged LSA crate engine that produces a rippling 560 horsepower to the rear wheels, more than enough to get its driver in some late-night trouble. Attached to the engine would be an upgraded custom-built Billet Specialties Tru Trac serpentine belt system, which plays an essential role in powering the alternator, power steering pump, added air-conditioning and upgraded water pump. Other notable parts are the custom fuel tank made by Rick’s Tanks of Texas and the custom aluminum radiator by Ron Davis. The guys at Ultra Motor Sports spared no expense while constructing this build and made sure the engine was backed by the most trusted in the business, so they installed a Tremec TR6060 six-speed manual transmission with a twindisc clutch. The high wind of the supercharger and stainless-steel exhaust creates an alluring sound to those admiring and a spine-chilling sound to

those contemplating challenging this ground-up build. The custom, maroon-painted body was placed upon a Fast Track chassis that consisted of an independent rear suspension with Penske adjustable coil-over shocks and 14-inch cross-drilled rotors with six-piston Bear brakes. With the stopping power well-adjusted, the wheels would be installed next. Going with bright chrome to tie in the appearance, custom Billet Specialties 20x12 and 20x9 wheels would be selected. Truly a special sight to see from a mechanics standpoint, the interior was given the same no-expense-spared theme.

Getting into the cabin is easy thanks to the keyless entry feature, and one will be pleased when they are greeted with the custom genuine leather interior professionally installed by Interiors by Thomas. The seats are covered in jet black leather that features fine red stitching throughout and gives its four occupants the ultimate comfort. The classic 1966 dashboard appears to be untouched other than an upgraded stereo system, only preserving its perfect blend of modern and old-school flair.

A truly spectacular sight to see with its no-expense-spared theme throughout, this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Restomod with its monstrous 560 HP supercharged engine that lurks under the hood is set to make a lasting impression on any build competition it enters or anyone that dares challenge it to a straight line on the streets.

1994 Ferrari 355 GTB 'Euro Spec' 429

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: ZFFPA41B000099705

• Early ‘Euro Spec’ example equipped with the 381-HP 2.7 Motronic engine and six-speed manual gearbox

• Recent 2023 engine-out service, documented by photos and service records

• Documented ownership, Listed in the 355 Registry

• Striking Verde Silverstone Metallic over Cognac tan interior

The Ferrari 355 GTB was first introduced in 1994 as a replacement for the outgoing Ferrari 348. It was part of the Ferrari 355 series, which includes the 355 GTS (Spider) and the 355 F1 (F1-style paddle shifter). The 355 GTB was the coupe version of the beloved series. The Ferrari 355 GTB was designed by the renowned Italian design house, Pininfarina and featured an aerodynamic and striking

exterior with sleek lines and prominent air intakes. Under the hood, the normal 355 GTB was powered by a 3.5-litre V-8 engine that produced around 375 horsepower; however, the example at hand is an early Euro Spec, so it is equipped with a 2.7 Motronic engine that produces 381 horsepower. Paired with a gated six-speed manual gearbox, the 355 GTB could accelerate from 0 to 60 miles

per hour in just over 4 seconds, with a top speed exceeding 180 mph. The car’s handling and balance are also highly praised by critics and enthusiasts alike, making it a popular choice for drivers seeking a thrilling and engaging driving experience.

A highly desirable Euro Spec example, this 1994 Ferrari 355 GTB was delivered new to famous Belgium Ferrari dealership Garage Francorchamps. In looking at the service booklet entries, this Ferrari lived in Germany for a long time and appears to have been a showroom demo car or show stand car as the warranty book is filled out by the selling dealership and then not again until being acquired by its first private owner in 1996. Following the service booklet and service records on file, this Ferrari would pass through four more owners before landing in the current owner's possession. Also noted in the service booklet, there was an odometer swap due to a failed odometer at 33,484 km, the original odometer along with the documents will come with the car. Today, this Ferrari shows just over 46,200 kilometres (28,707 miles).

As documented in the 355 registry, this Ferrari is a very early 355 example that left the factory as a Euro Spec, meaning it is equipped with the non-airbag

three-spoke steering wheel and a more powerful 381-horsepower 2.7 Motronic engine. This left-handdrive Ferrari is still presented in its original Verde Silverstone Metallic over Cognac tan interior, both of which present well, only showing slight signs of normal road use. As expected, all of the lights work and the air-conditioning blows cold.

Documented by receipts and photos, this rare Euro Spec 355 GTB was the lucky recipient of a major servicing that took place in 2023, which entailed a complete engine-out service, timing belt service, air-conditioning service, and new tires were also equipped. The paint was professionally detailed, and the underside was dry ice-blasted. Along with the sale, this Ferrari will be accompanied by manuals, tools, extra keys, service records, map light, extensive paperwork going back to new, and photos of the engine-out service.

A rare and seldom seen 355 GTB Euro Spec example that has been faithfully maintained and recently sorted, this turn-key Ferrari in its highly desirable color will be the ultimate addition to one's garage or rotation of daily driver European performance cars.

1963 Chevrolet Corvette 'Fuel-Injected' 'Split-Window' Coupe 430

• Striking factory-original Daytona Blue with red vinyl interior

• Numbers matching factory fuel-injected example

• Sympathetic cosmetic restoration of a fantastic original car

• Iconic and timeless split-window design

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 30837S103605

• 1 of only an estimated 10 to leave the factory in this configuration

Few automobiles have achieved the notoriety of the Corvette Sting Ray, and the top of that heap is clearly the fuel-injected 1963 Vette. Chevrolet launched the second generation of America’s Sports Car with a sexy aerodynamic design by Bill Mitchell and Larry Shinoda, all while riding a thoroughly redesigned chassis with Corvette’s first four-wheel independent suspension developed by Zora Arkus Duntov. Also new for 1963 was the first-ever production

Corvette Coupe with a split rear window. While the basic design of the coupe would last until 1967, the “split-window” would not, and today, it is the signature identifying feature of these desirable and rare closed 1963 Corvettes. The all-new Corvette generated immediate acclaim, with Motor Trend testers remarking, “We thought the old model cornered darn well, but there’s no comparing it to this new one.” Road & Track stated that the 1963

Corvette “will know few peers.” The model has become something of a design classic, renowned for its combination of European-inspired high style and American brawn, and it remains coveted by Corvette collectors as a landmark in the history of what may be Chevrolet’s most important model. This year, the model celebrates its 60th anniversary. Four engine options were offered for the year with the Rochester fuel-injected 327-cubic-inch V-8 at the head of the class. At $430.40, it was a pricey option, and consequently only 2,610 cars, including this car, would leave the factory in 1963 so equipped. Those who were able to afford this advanced powerplant were treated to 360 roaring horsepower and thrilling acceleration propelling the Corvette to 60 mph in under six seconds — performance that remains exhilarating, even today.

This desirable early production car carries an envious list of features starting with its numbersmatching fuel-injected 327 producing 360 horsepower and 352 lb-ft of torque. The engine pad is proper with broach marks as expected matching the under dash VIN. It is backed by a close-ratio four-speed manual transmission and a Positraction rear end with 3.70 gears. The drum brakes wear

sintered-iron linings that have been found to be "practically impossible to fade”. A noted Corvette expert's recent inspection of the car verified the entire drivetrain and fuel-injection unit matches and appear to be original to this car.

The obvious allure of this Split-Window is the striking and uber desirable color combination of Daytona Blue exterior over red interior and carpet. A decode of the trim tag confirms that this is the original color combination - 1 of only an estimated 10 to leave the factory in these colors with the fuelinjected engine. Always cared for and preserved, it presents with just one high-quality repaint and fresh carpet from new. The look is completed with the factory steel wheels riding on the correct redline tires. Delivered in July of 1963, it comes with original warranty and owner’s manual intact. The 1963 SplitWindow Corvette has achieved iconic status. It has crossover appeal to every generation and virtually every taste, not just in America, but around the globe. A high-quality, well-preserved, numbers matching, fuel-injected Split Window, in what is arguably the most desirable color combination, sets this car apart as one of the best.

It was probably one of the craziest advertising gimmicks ever to hit the rental car market. Imagine going to your local Hertz office and being able to rent a real Shelby GT350 Mustang for a couple of days, a weekend adventure, or even an hour or two. In September 1965, a business agreement was reached between Shelby American and Hertz to supply 1,000 GT350s for the giant company’s rental fleet. Most of those were to be painted black with gold Le Mans stripes. They would have the Shelby-sized 289 V-8 engine with an output of 306 HP, and all but the first few delivered would be equipped with the C4 automatic transmission. These special edition

Mustangs would become known as “Rent-A-Racers”. Fast forward to the early 2000s, and both companies decided to revive their partnership to create a limited-edition Mustang rental car for the Hertz Corporation, one of the leading rental car companies in the United States. The aim was to offer Hertz customers a thrilling and exclusive driving experience that paid homage to the classic Rent-A-Racers. This vision would come to fruition in 2006 when Hertz would offer a mere 500 coupes and then, in 2007, offer another mere 500, but this time as a convertible.

VIN: 58E089896

• Presents with a plethora of options including Autronic eye

The year 1958 marked the last year before Harley Earl went into the stratosphere with Cadillac’s tailfins. More elegant and subdued, the 1958 tailfins carry the horizontal bodyline as the trunk deck begins to slope down, creating a sense of motion, careful aim, and elegance. Supreme among all the chrome classics of the 1950s was the 1958 Eldorado Biarritz Convertible. Cadillac factory

dealer promotional literature described the new 1958 Eldorado Biarritz as such: “The sleek, long lines of the Eldorado Biarritz are enhanced by the new longer hood and front fenders plus the individual treatment of rear quarter panels and fins. Lending further distinction to the Eldorado, as viewed to the side, is the single-winged chrome molding on the front fender crown, the

ten vertical chromed bars of the simulated stone shield, the broad chromed molding around the rear wheel opening and the Cadillac crest insignia on the tapered rear quarter panel fins.”

This sensational 1958 Eldorado Biarritz, 1 of only 815 produced for the 1958 model year, is finished in shimmering Desert Bronze iridescent paint with a Copper leather interior and upgraded luxurious Coffee Brown Haartz cloth power convertible top. This glamorous top-of-the-line Cadillac convertible has aged gracefully, acquiring a soft patina that arguably adds to its charm. The paint finish is deep and glossy, and the subtle shade of bronze highlights the many rounded surfaces of the voluptuous curves of the body. The abundant chrome and gleaming brightwork add to the visual effect; there is so much to look at on a 1958 Eldorado Biarritz, it is a feast for the eyes. The factory chrome-plated Sabre-spoke wheels, with their many fins and large center caps proudly displaying the legendary Cadillac crest, are wrapped in periodcorrect wide whitewall tires, complementing the compelling mid-century styling. The gold-plated Cadillac emblem draws still more attention - just in case any bystanders are unsure that they are looking at one of Cadillac’s finest styles of the era. Inside, the luxury and glamour continue seamlessly. The sumptuous Metallic Copper-colored Cape Buffalograined leather has aged handsomely. The correctly

textured dash pad is in excellent condition and the endless array of beautiful chrome details on the stylish dash and door panels are yet another visual delight. Of course, the Eldorado is equipped with a dazzling decree of standard power-assisted comfort and convenience items that any highheeled Cadillac customer would expect from The Standard of the World. These items include power steering, power brakes, power windows, power vent windows, remote left-side mirror, clock, six-way power seats, power antenna, pushbutton signalseeking radio, optional E-Z Eye tinted glass, and the most unnecessary of necessities, the optional space-age sci-fi looking Autronic Eye headlight dimmer mounted prominently on the dash. There are also no less than four ashtrays with lighters for your smoking convenience.

Under the long hood is Cadillac’s smooth and powerful 365-cubic-inch V-8 engine equipped with three Rochester two-barrel carburetors producing 365 horsepower shifted through a four-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. There is ample power to outrun paparazzi or an impetuous youngster in a hotrod at the stoplight. The Eldorado Biarritz’s combination of power and presence has arguably never been repeated in such spectacular fashion. Glamorous, stylish, rare, and powerful, this chrome-laden mid-century masterpiece represents all that is good from the 1950s era of styling excess.

1980 BMW M1 433

• Meticulous 3,000-hour multi-year restoration with rebuilt original engine and tubing system

• Just over 11,000 original miles

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 9111113074

• Restored using NOS parts exclusively from BMW

• 1 of only 453 examples produced

M1 is a snapshot of BMW at its absolute pinnacle. It captures the ferocious, angular styling cues of its generation and it represents the inauguration of the premium BMW M “Motorsport” division, which still keeps us coming back for more, yet nothing has rivaled it since. It is BMW’s one and only supercar. Only 453 were ever produced and 53 of those were built for the racetrack.

• Matching numbers, one of the finest restored M1 examples available

With just over 11,000 original miles and over 3,000 hours in loving restoration, this incredible example is easily one of the finest restored BMW M1's available. Jochen Neerpasch, director of BMW’s newly created Motorsports factory racing program in the 1970s, had dreamed of a mid-engine racecar that would outclass the competition, but he needed 400 production cars to make this

vision a reality due to regulations. With increasing demand to manufacture road cars for the world market, BMW lacked the capacity to meet that magic number. So, Neerpasch looked to Italy. Chassis production and development were undertaken by mid-engine guru Lamborghini while Giorgetto Giugiaro’s Italdesign firm, fresh off the Maserati Bora and Lotus Esprit, were charged with styling. BMW delivered a 3.5-litre, straight-six powertrain, inspired by its successful competition CSL. The result mounted longitudinally into a tubular space frame and boasted 274 horsepower through its upsidedown five-speed gearbox. Equipped with a 3,454cc dual-overhead-cam, straight-six KugelfischerBosch mechanical fuel injection engine with 274 horsepower and 6500 rpm that shifts through a rearwheel drive, five-speed manual gearbox, it brakes with vented discs and boasts control arms with coil springs for suspension and is outfitted with anti-roll bars in the front and rear. Meanwhile, Lamborghini landed in a financial quagmire during development and a few of their engineers jumped ship to form Italengineering where the chassis was finally completed. The fiberglass bodies were fitted to the frame by Italdesign and Baur completed the final assembly by hand in Stuttgart. After U.S. federalization requirements were completed, the BMW M1 would fetch a whopping $115,000. With less than 400 manufactured for the open road, the M1 disappeared from the market with the speed to match its performance. Dennis Collins had always been enamored with the M1 and when the opportunity came knocking, he leapt at the chance to procure this low 18,621 original

kilometres (11,570 miles), accident-free example. Featured on his popular YouTube Channel, Coffee Walk, Dennis chronicled the restoration of this rare supercar, which included over 3,000 hours of restoration that this already pristine car benefited from. The result is a fantasticlly restored M1. Although the car had never seen so much as a scratch, the previous owner had kept the prized M1 under cover, which had adhered to a few spots of paint. With a mission of restoring the finest BMW M1 in existence, Collins opted to strip the car to its body and repaint it entirely in the original color. The captivating black beltline, trim and rivets were refinished to obsessively exacting standards. The pristine original interior is present and has undergone a full detail. The original mid-engine and powertrain was also given the ultimate treatment and were restored with a high level of detail that included a new tubing system and replacement of all necessary components that were sourced as new old stock directly from BMW in Germany. Anything that was unavailable from the rare supercar was manufactured to exact specifications by BMW. Every restored component has been accurately cadmium- or zinc-plated to original specifications. The powertrain alone is worthy of a world-class showroom. While this low-mileage M1 was not in need of a ground-up restoration, every possible detail and function it needed was conducted with absolutely meticulous care on this rare supercar.

It is BMW’s one true supercar and is about as rare as it gets for the marque. The restoration has been a true labor of love and the finished product resulted in one of the finest restored BMW M1s available.

• Listed in the official Shelby Registry

When Ford first approached Carroll Shelby about creating a “hopped-up” version of the new Mustang, his dance card was already full with the production of his historic Cobra roadsters. However, being the entrepreneur that he was, Shelby threw caution to the wind and set about to make his friends at Ford even more beholden to his genius. The original Shelby Mustang fit the bill of what Ford was looking for and soon its racing endeavors were

making news wherever they appeared. While production of those early GT350 street cars was limited in the first year, the second year saw a major jump in production and sales. But Shelby wanted more for his vehicles and, with Mustang’s redesign in 1967 able to accommodate a big-block V-8, it was game on. That year Shelby introduced the GT500 available only in fastback models, but still, Shelby felt there was more performance to be found. Through

experiments with ram-jet technology, a few more horses could be produced and that was the engine that would become the ultimate in regular production Shelbys.

According to Carroll Shelby, in the late summer of 1967, someone at Ford got word that Chevrolet was planning a major ad campaign for the new 1968 Corvettes, and plans were to use the term “King of the Road”. Shelby got ahold of his representatives from 3M, who provided the outside striping for his Shelby Mustangs and had them conjure up a GT500KR graphic for the Cobra-Jet powered cars waiting in the wings. Shelby’s legal team quickly filed for trademark application and the King of the Road from Shelby was born. To much delight, Chevrolet was left scrambling. The performance of the GT500KR did not disappoint. Officially, the rated horsepower was advertised at 335; in reality, it was a lot closer to 400. The torque was terrific, 440 lb-ft or, to borrow a line from the late Tom McCahill, “enough torque to pull an elephant through the eye of a needle!” For 1968, production of the Mustangs destined to become Shelbys was switched to the Metuchen assembly plant in New Jersey. From there, the cars were shipped to A. O. Smith’s facility in Michigan where they underwent a rigorous process to conform to all of Shelby's specifications before being sent to authorized Shelby-Ford dealers around the country. The GT500KR moniker would be around for just one year, and a mere 1,053 GT500KR

Fastbacks would be produced.

As noted in the Shelby Registry, this KR Fastback was sold new on February 19th, 1969, by NorthWestern Motor Car Company of Milwaukee to Patrick James Sibel of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Per its Elite Marti Report, this example is finished in its original Candy Apple Red and would leave the factory equipped with an array of factory options that include the GT equipment group, shoulder harness, tilt-away steering wheel, an AM radio, and the interior decor group. This GT500KR would also leave the factory with the desirable creature comforts of power steering and power disc brakes, which elevates the driving experience of this King of the Road to another level. Always maintained mechanically, this is one of Shelby’s best creations and is ready to do what it was designed for – to hit the road running. In impressive condition both cosmetically and mechanically, this rare muscle car is a thrill to drive. The massive 428 Cobra Jet mated to the factory four-speed manual transmission will get any driver’s heart racing, and with the addition of a plush luxury interior, and the ever-so-important safety features of power disc brakes and power steering, the journey is elevated to another level. Powerful, rare, and authentic, this stellar example of Shelby's performance presents an opportunity to acquire one of the most legendary and desirable muscle cars ever produced.

1989 Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary Edition 436

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN:

Engine No:

L507V471-1840

• 1 of only 657 25th Anniversary Editions produced

• Just 10,116 original kilometres (6,285 miles) from new

• $50,000 engine-out service in 2016 with photos and invoices

If there is a single car that represents the raucous style and untamed energy of the Eighties, it is unquestionably the Lamborghini Countach. The most outrageous silhouette to ever slap pavement upon its release, the Countach graced the big screen and adorned the bedrooms of every teenage boy, at least in dreams or poster form. It cemented Lamborghini as a supercar icon and informed the look of styling for a generation. Less than 2,000 were ever produced

• Highly desirable black over cream leather and fitted with optional rear wing

and a mere 657 of those were the most advanced 25th Anniversary example offered here. Designs for the Lamborghini Countach were helmed by Bertone’s Marcello Gandini who captured the provocative look of an entirely new generation of supercars. When the extremely sharp, angular Countach prototype, with its electrifying scissor-swept doors, debuted at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show, the crowd was instantaneously flabbergasted, awe-struck,

and enraptured. Nothing quite like it had ever been envisioned, much less executed with such precision. Demand was staggering, but it wasn’t until 1974 that the first production Countach was finally released. The Countach cemented Lamborghini’s reputation as the most edgy supercar producer of the 20th century and resulted in an inimitable form that was so out there, it spawned the look of the ‘80s a decade ahead of its time. The model would evolve in four iterations but remain Lamborghini’s flagship until 1990. The Countach reigned for nearly twenty years and just under 2,000 highly soughtafter examples were produced. By the time the 25th Anniversary Edition Countach was released, the V-12 engine had gone from a 3,929cc engine to a 5.2-litre V-12 Quattrovalvole, meaning it boasted four valves per cylinder, which increased efficiency and hiked horsepower to 415 with the Bosch fuel injection for the U.S. market from its original carbureted 440 horsepower. The 25th Anniversary Edition was released at the Monza Grand Prix in celebration of Lamborghini’s twenty-five years of production and it represents the pinnacle of the groundbreaking supercar. The body was evocatively restyled by the innovative Horacio Pagani of Formula One fiber composite fame and his own eponymous supercar. The 5.2-litre V-12 and fivespeed gearbox were better equipped with body accommodations including additional vents to the air dam, and evocative strakes to the front apron and sides along with larger air box intakes, which enhanced cooling to the brakes and engine. The body sported front and rear Kevlar hoods, the 25th Anniversary insignia adorned the door sills and rear fascia, and the alluring body was bolstered by

new three-piece OZ alloy wheels. The cockpit was outfitted with leather upholstery, power seats, and windows as well as an upgraded climate control system. Aesthetically and mechanically superior to all that came before, the final edition of the iconic Countach delivered looks, comfort, and staggering performance for its final glorious act.

This 1989 Lamborghini 25th Anniversary Edition Countach is 1 of only 657 produced. Dressed in a highly desirable black over luscious cream leather interior and fitted with the captivating factory optional rear wing, this is the apex of the iconic Lamborghini Countach. The black provocative body rides over iconic, original OZ racing wheels with a Lamborghini bull at its center. The shockingly accommodating cockpit is dressed in cream Italian leather that is accented and piped with black leather; this gorgeous color scheme is echoed by the beige and black leather steering wheel, embossed with the Lamborghini bull. Myriad details, including leather-upholstered storage compartments in the door panels and the sumptuous leather that lines the center console, remind the driver that this is not merely a sports car, it’s a supercar of thoughtful luxury as well. A U.S. car, it boasts a mere 6,285 original, fuel-injected miles and has undergone a $50,000 engine-out servicing and mechanical restoration in 2016 as well as a recent servicing. Original factory manuals, extensive service invoices and restoration photos will accompany the sale. Offering the ultimate in driver engagement, Italian luxury and the most recognizable Lamborghini of all time, this low mileage, meticulously kept and correctly restored 25th Anniversary Edition Countach is intrinsic to any Lamborghini’s lover’s collection.

1953 Muntz Jet 437

Earl “Madman” Muntz often called himself “Crazy”, and just maybe he was, crazy like a fox, that is. At the age of 20, he opened his first used car lot in his hometown of Elgin, Illinois. After the end of WWII, he moved to greener pastures and was able to secure a Kaiser-Fraser dealership in Glendale, California. For the 1947 model year, it was reported that his outlet sold over 22,000 units, about 14 percent of the company’s total output. So successful was Muntz

with this dealership, Kaiser set up a plant to assemble knock-down units shipped from Willow Run in Michigan to an airport hangar at the Long Beach airport. In the late 1940s, he saw how expensive new television receivers were and set about to design one that everyone could afford, being the first to offer ready-to-play TV sets for $100. Then he met Frank Kurtis. Kurtis was primarily known for his race-winning open-wheel race cars, but he started to produce

his own sports car, a two-passenger configuration using a variety of engines. Muntz saw the car, made an offer to buy Kurtis out, and began to produce his own version, the Muntz Jet. A few alterations were made, such as lengthening the wheelbase, adding 13 inches to the body to accommodate a back seat and two more passengers. The first two Muntz Jets produced were powered by Cadillac V-8s but, failing to be able to secure more from GM, the big Lincoln flathead V-8 engines were employed, the majority of which were backed up with the Hydramatic transmission. Production started at the Muntz facility in Glendale, but after about 28 cars were produced, production was moved to Evanston, Illinois which allowed for easier access to parts and a more central location for distribution of the completed cars. At one point, Muntz claimed that 394 units had been built between 1950 and 1953; however, according to the Muntz Registry maintained by Vince Munsen, the actual numbers may be closer to just shy of 200 cars.

Seldom seen today as so few were produced, this late-production Muntz Jet has been a recipient of a complete restoration sometime during its life. Showing slight signs of patina in the paint, the exterior is finished in classic Torch Red that is complemented by a white lift-off convertible top. The exterior appearance is completed with a set

of chrome wire wheels that feature “Madman” himself in his Napoleon-like costume on the center caps. The interior is finished in alabaster off-white, which appears to be in good shape. The dash is reminiscent of a vehicle from the Art Deco era, and a vintage-looking AM/FM/CD stereo system can be found in the armrest.

Factory rated with a top speed of 125 miles per hour, which was quite the spectacle in its day, Road & Track wrote, “The Muntz Jet offers the fastest acceleration and highest top speed of any American-built car available from the showroom floor today. For those who wish to travel rapidly, carry five passengers, be protected from the weather, and who have the necessary change, this is the car.” Today, the 317-cubic-inch L-head Lincoln V-8 engine and Hydramatic automatic transmission both perform flawlessly, as this Muntz has been wellmaintained under the current owner's care. Other mechanical components on this Muntz are new ignition components, a Holley four-barrel carburetor that sits on top of the original manifold, upgraded power brakes, and an upgraded rear suspension.

With less than 200 built and far fewer surviving today, this example stands as a tribute to the desire of a “Madman” to create an iconic automobile, while making a name for himself and, most importantly, a car built for true enthusiasts.

1971 Porsche 911T Targa 438

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 9111113074

Engine No: 6117625

• Numbers-matching as per Porsche Classic Technical Certificate

• Extensive restoration by marque expert

The Porsche 911 is one of the longest-lived and most iconic sportscars of all time. Its timeless design and spirited performance make for an undeniably dynamic combination that is simply too perfect to ever go out of style. Its 2.2-litre, flat-six engine sings like an automotive cicada and demands the kind of driver engagement for which Porsche became known. Vintage examples of the 911, like this 1971 911T, are increasingly collectible today. The 911 first debuted at the 1963 Frankfurt Motor Show as a more

• The last year for the carbureted T configuration

• Documented with owner's manual and maintenence records

powerful and accommodating successor to Porsche’s four-cylinder Type 356. With styling largely penned by Ferry Porsche’s son, Ferdinand “Butzi” Porsche, the 911 was launched into production, and the longest-enduring model of the marque was born. Over the years, Porsche has enhanced and revised the 911, but the model remains a flagship for the German producer 70 years later. Why mess with a good thing?

In 1971, Stuttgart produced a mere 3,476 examples of the 911

that thrived on the global market thanks to the nuanced updates to the original 1964 model. The refined, new 911 offered a longer wheelbase by 2.4 inches that resulted in an alluring longer nose. It also featured flared wheel arches, which not only accommodated larger wheels and tires to increase handling and grip, but it also looked all the more enticing as well. At the time, there was a threat that the U.S. was going to ban full convertibles, which led to the development of the perpetually popular Targa top in 1966. Thanks to the industry rumor mill, a new styling icon was born and continues to delight collectors and thrill-seekers. By 1970, the engine was upgraded from a 2.0-litre to a 2.2-litre engine with single overhead cams and two valves per cylinder; this was offered in three options: the carbureted T, the fuel-injected E, and the sport S. Although the S was lauded for its elevated horsepower, Road & Track has bested the carbureted T over the feisty S for sheer joy in driver engagement. The last year for a carbureted 911, the T leaves a legacy that many purists continue to prefer. The early examples of long-hooded 911s are also increasingly in demand

with collectors across the globe. This matchingnumbers 1971 Porsche 911 Targa is offered in the desirable T configuration that represents the last year of a carbureted 911. It wears a beautiful cosmetic restoration by a marque expert prior to 2009 and has a restored, original powertrain, stunning ivory paint, with virtually flawless brightwork. The car retains its original owner’s manual, maintenance record, and paperwork from its initial dealer out of Arlington, Virginia where it was sold to Harry R. Jansen of Arlington, Virginia. This car has been issued a Porsche Classic Technical Certification in July 2023 which confirms it is a numbers-matching car. Robed in classic ivory with flawless stainless and gold brightwork over Fuchs Felge alloy wheels, the stainless targa pillars and black top are immaculate. Inside, the original black leatherette and matching interior presents with a mere whisper of patina that is a testament to its well-kept history. It has recently been serviced at Porsche Grapevine Classic Service Division and is wearing new tires. This beautiful 911 is poised for a fine collection and is ready to enjoy on the ultimate Sunday drive under an open targa top.

1963 Chevrolet Corvette LS7 'Split-Window' Restomod 439

• Desirable ’63 Corvette Split-Window body and custom Roadster Shop chassis

• Vintage Air climate control, AutoMeter instrument panel, modern Bluetooth sound system

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 30837S110720

• Equipped with a monstrous 7.0-liter LS7 V-8 engine mated to a T56 Tremec six-speed manual transmission

The Split-Window Corvette was only produced for the inaugural year of the Sting Ray, making it one of the most desirable Corvette bodies to ever don the Chevy bowtie. The purest example of designer Bill Mitchell’s shark-featured sportscar, the split-window Sting Ray represents one of the most captivating cars Chevrolet ever produced. This dazzling black on grey restomod fused that

• Black over fine Mercedes Glove Grey leather upholstery

• An ultimate iteration of iconic design mated to modern technology

iconic body with modern performance and accommodations for a car that’s as riveting to drive today as it is focus-pulling curbside. The tale of the Sting Ray is as unlikely as it is impressive. Bill Mitchell, who helmed the design, guided a team of young superstars including Larry Shinoda and Peter Brock to craft Chevrolet’s second-generation Corvette. With styling cues from Bill Mitchell’s

passion for marine life, the Sting Ray incorporated gills, wings, and spines of the mako shark and stingray to build the inimitable architecture of the body that would be lauded forever as America’s sportscar. The Sting Ray would become an icon, but the split-window would only last for a single year and many examples have been lost to history, which makes the model a holy grail for Corvette lovers. Many restomods start with a different year body and build it with a split-window feature. This example took an original split-window Corvette Sting Ray body as the foundation of what would become a world-class restomod. The goal was to leave the body as original as possible and it was stripped down and repainted in flawless black and features an eye-catching stinger-style hood, fender vents, chrome bumperettes, flip-up headlights, B-pillar vents and dual side-outlet exhausts. The entire powertrain was redesigned to deliver the ultimate, modern driving machine. A 7.0-liter LS7 V-8, with 505 horsepower, the most powerful engine Chevrolet had ever produced for Corvette at the time, was mated to a Holley Dominator electronic fuel-injector that shifts through a rearwheel T56 Tremec six-speed manual transmission with Billet Specialties shifter and a McLeod twindisc clutch. The chassis was replaced with the performance-centric Roadster Shop chassis and four-wheel independent suspension and integrated independent rear suspension as well as Penske double-adjustable coilovers and power steering. That is not all that lurks beneath this ’63 Corvette’s silhouette. A Plazmaman billet intake manifold, fuel rails, aluminum radiator with electric fans, Chevroletscript coil covers, tubular heads, internal EFI fuel pump and oil breathers within a stainless-steel fuel

tank round out the magic. The mechanics mate flawlessly to AutoMeter’s 160-mph speedometer, tachometer, odometer and gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, battery and oil pressure. This entirely equipped restomod comes to a halt with Baer four-wheel disc brakes and Baer six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers over drilled and slotted rotors mated to staggered Forgeline RS6 knock-off wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport redline tires. The interior is beautifully tailored in Mercedes Glove Grey leather upholstery that adorns bolstered bucket seats and color-coordinated door and rear trim panels offset by a Billet Specialties steering wheel. The cockpit is equipped with AutoMeter instrumentation, stylish Vintage Air climate control, power windows, Kicker speakers, and a subwoofer as well as a Bluetooth audio receiver. Every detail has been implemented including a Holley Sniper EFI touchscreen controller that is conveniently mounted inside the glovebox.

This desirable 1963 Corvette, with single-year split-window styling, has been modernized to deliver the ultimate in sheer driver enjoyment. The quality of the build is evident at every angle and no expense was spared in making this incredible restomod look as formidable on the street as it is supersonic on the straightaway. This car is the whole package for someone who wants modern sports car performance with epic Sting Ray looks. With common restomod builds exceeding a half million dollars and thousands of hours that turn into years of build time, this particular Sting Ray is already done and represents an outstanding opportunity to take advantage of a labor of love that is ready to enjoy today.

1990 BMW M3 Coupe 440

• 1 of only 672 M3s imported to the U.S. for 1990

• Among the most iconic models in BMW M history

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN:

WBSAK0311LAE34151

• Previously from the Rudy “Mr. 993” Mancinas Collection

• Thoughtfully preserved and presented in largely original condition with matching numbers

One of the most iconic and delicious to drive cars in BMW history, the high-performance, limited-production M3 was introduced by BMW’s Motorsports Division in 1986 and has remained a popular bespoke offering of the marque throughout the three series’ long existence. The first generation M3 debuted at the 1985 Frankfurt Motor Show and the apex model would remain one of the most

desirable, continuously manufactured, limited-production BMWs for decades. The M3 would go on to win 24 Hours of Nurburgring five times in the first generation alone and these inaugural examples are increasingly collectible today.

Although the M3 was based on the E30, or 3-series in the U.S., it would share little in common with the mass-produced model.

The body was redesigned with aerodynamics in mind and was equipped with a daring rear spoiler, a more flattened rear window, and a lighter weight tailgate for improved airflow, an aerodynamic boot lid, deep front splitter, and provocative flared wheel arches with sophisticated badging and countless details round out the generous package. Developed for DTM and FIA Group A racing, what lurked beneath the hood is what truly set the M3 apart from its little sister. With ‘BMW M Power’ emblazoned on the S14 dual-overhead cam, 2.3-litre, four-cylinder, 16-valve engine block, the powertrain was augmented by Bosch Motronic fuel-injection mated to a Getrag five-speed gearbox and would boast 192 horsepower at 6,750 rpms when configured for the U.S. market. The chassis was bolstered with front independent suspension with MacPherson Struts and a semi-trailing arm in the rear and the four-wheel disc brakes featured anti-lock braking systems. It was among the most well-equipped sportscars on the road and its look was simply unmistakable. This numbers-matching example previously from the well-known Rudy “Mr. 993” Mancinas German Sportscar Collection is timelessly finished in a rare sterling silver metallic paint with carefully preserved black upholstery. This car presents in largely original condition and has recently undergone a comprehensive major service and winter 2022 inspection by Bennet Motor Werks in Dallas, Texas. Service conducted includes new spark plugs, engine oil and filter, valve clearance adjustments and new valve cover gaskets, cleaning

of fuel injectors, coolant replacement, lubrication of joints and hinges, and new window switch and electrical system inspection have been completed for a total of $4,400. The M3 has been extensively detailed with dry ice treatment and is in absolutely pristine condition. The driver’s front fender does bear a BMW DOT-R to indicate a certified replacement of the part. All other factory VIN stickers are present throughout. It boasts clean CARFAX® and AutoCheck vehicle history reports, which confirm this was a California car from 1993 to 2012. Under Rudy’s stewardship, the M3 was given the ultimate treatment and presents in nearly flawless condition. This numbers-matching example also brings with it a host of enhancements as all of Rudy’s cars were proudly “Rudyfied,” including Eibach springs, Bilstein shocks, Wiechers-Sport steel front brace, a stainless-steel performance muffler, European-spec headlights and yellow OEM Hella fog lamps, as well as original clear Hellas accompanying the purchase. One of just 672 M3s imported to the U.S. for 1990, this Motorsport BMW brings with it a host of factory extras including BMW etched glass, M3 body stampings and badging, five basket weave BMW/ BBS wheels, wrapped in 2021 205/55R15 Yokohama Advan Flava tires and boasts desirable four-piece Koko mats. This beautifully kept M3 is offered with its original books, tools, jacks, BMW wheel spanner, spare, and “BMW M3” Euro Plate. This is an excellent opportunity to own a first-generation Motorsport BMW M3 in superb condition as its collectability continues to rise.

Coachwork by Carrosserie Ghia-Aigle 1949 Delahaye 135MS Coupé 441

• One of only three examples produced

• Restoration by noted Delahaye expert Jean-Luc Bonnefoy

• Featured at the 1950 Geneva Motor Show

• Eligible and ready for Concours events and tours around the globe

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 800573

• Desirable ‘MS’ configuration, equipped with triple carburetors

The apex of French automobiles, Delahaye delivers undeniable allure, bespoke styling, a formidable history of pedigree and racing, as well as scarcity. Every true Delahaye is a survivor to treasure. This particular 1949 Delahaye 135MS Coupé, bodied by Carrosserie Ghia-Aigle, is one of only three produced. Chassis 800573 captures post-war Delahaye at its most modern, along with all the glamour Delahaye entails. Restored by definitive Delahaye expert, Jean-Luc Bonnefoy, it is MS-equipped with upgraded triple

Solex carburetors, an additional 15 horsepower, and retains its matching chassis and engine numbers. This rare and singular Delahaye is the complete package for tours, concours and fanfare across the globe.

Unequaled in luxury with an enduring legacy that never dims, Delahaye pushed the envelope of innovation and cemented the art form of the automobile. A name synonymous with both luxury and racing, Delahaye enchanted the world with their Type 135 until war descended on France.

Following WWII, the 135M was equipped with a wider chassis that improved handling. The overhead valve six-cylinder engine was more powerful and offered even greater horsepower for the 135MS, which breathes through triple Solex carburetors. Unfortunately, France’s finest luxury marque was not to last, and it folded in 1954. During the post-war Type 135’s reign, from 1945 to 1952, a mere 1,155 examples would be produced. Of that number, only three were bodied by Carrosserie Ghia-Aigle; this is the story of one of those three exceedingly rare automobiles.

Carrosserie Ghia-Aigle was in the right place at the right time and had the coachbuilding skill to deliver on an unique opportunity. Turin-based Carrosserie Ghia was in a tenuous position following the war, bombing leveled their factory, and the famous Italian firm wasn’t yet the Phoenix that would inevitably rise from the ashes. Ghia would soon partner with Chrysler for the inimitable Dual-Ghia, but in the meantime, they partnered with a talented shop in Aigle, Switzerland to conduct their coachwork designs in 1949. This particular car represents a rare collaboration of GhiaAigle and Delahaye. With only three bodies handcrafted for the marque, this 1949 Delahaye MS Coupé is an evocative hallmark from their first year of business with Ghia. It represents the style and energy of a new era in automobile design. A captivatingly modern style with fully enveloped fender spats that raise and lower with levers to facilitate tire change, this post-war Delahaye has an inimitable look that is truly striking.

Chassis 800573 was produced in the ultimate MS configuration in June 1949 and boasted a 3.6-litre straight-six engine, mated to Solex triple carburetors shifting through a Cotal-Maag electromagnetic gearbox, equipped with four forward and four reverse gears. Featured in France’s Auto Passion Magazine in April 1992, it was revealed that this car made its debut at the 1950 Geneva Motor Show. Ownership history began June 16, 1950, with Zurich’s Automobilwerke Franz AG company.

This Delahaye would remain in Swiss and French hands through its world-class restoration until it was procured by an Austrian collector in 2012 after Essen’s Techno Classica exhibition. It has remained in Europe and is now primed to delight on our shores for the first time.

Entrusted to the ultimate Delahaye restoration specialist, Jean-Luc Bonnefoy, the car was faithfully restored in 1990 to the absolute highest standards. The space-age body was flawlessly finished to sheer perfection and what lurks below is equally impressive including the original inline-six sporting matching blue accents to the beautifully polished alloy. Bonnefoy employed period-correct wiring, plumbing and the Cotal gearbox, as equipped originally, was primed for effortless continental touring. The interior was expertly conducted by M. Pardini et Fils of Boulogne and captures the true grandeur of Delahaye. Its current condition confirms the pinnacle of restoration craftsmanship with just the perfect touch of patina.

Chassis 800573, true to Delahaye’s exotic color schemes, is robed in stunning Aubergine with stunning brightwork inlaid with electric blue accents over the mid-century modern style and daring fender spats. The spectacular cabin reveals even greater magic inside where vintage Butterscotch leather is trimmed with blue piping offset by magnificent dash work of burl walnut, electric blue accents, Bakelite and delicious chrome work. A 1950 Geneva Motor Show feature with matching numbers and a thorough restoration by the world’s greatest Delahaye tactician, Jean-Luc Bonnefoy, Chassis 800573 carries serious pedigree. Equipped with the desirable 135 MS configuration, it is everything one could hope for in a custom bodied Delahaye. Truly a world-class automobile, it is one of only three bodies crafted by Carrosserie GhiaAigle, which ensures that this singular automobile will stand apart from its collector car brethren and will garner great fanfare on any concours green or tour wherever its new owner chooses to take it.

1973 Ford Bronco "Coyote" Restomod 442

• Fabulous nut-and-bolt rotisserie build

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: U15GLR88999

• Custom leather interior and Vintage Air

The idea of the Bronco began being discussed around Ford’s headquarters somewhere around 1962, when Donald Frey, Ford’s product manager, brought up the idea with Lee Iacocca who agreed it was a good idea. With Ford spending piles of cash to develop the upcoming Mustang, the only real order was to develop it as quickly and as inexpensively as possible. With the clay models built by mid-1963, the Bronco was approved for production by

February 1964. The most expensive components were the chassis, which was unique to the Bronco, and the body, which was likewise unique. Everything else was common component engineered. Introduced in August 1965 for the 1966 model year, the Bronco was a great success, providing Ford customers with an alternative to the Jeep CJ, Toyota Land Cruiser and International Harvester Scout. Successful in various off-road competitions, the Bronco

quickly earned a respected name for itself in a tough market. In fact, the original-style Bronco remained in production through 1977.

Ford must have had Jeep square in its sights in designing and engineering the Bronco. Like the Jeep CJ-5 of the time, the Bronco was small and designed with simple flat surfaces that were easy to keep protected from rocks. The Bronco was offered in three body styles: the "Wagon", which was a two-door with a removable hardtop, a "Roadster", which came roofless and with inserts instead of doors (much like the contemporary CJ-5), and a "Sports Utility Pickup", better known as the "half-cab", which did away with the two-person rear bench seat of the roadster and hardtop in favor of a mini pickup bed. The Roadster would only last until 1968, making it a particularly rare vehicle. The Bronco half-cab would stick around until 1973, leaving the popular wagon as the only body style for the remainder of the first-gen Bronco's life. According to Four Wheeler magazine, a total of 225,585 firstgeneration Broncos were built between 1965 and 1977 when production ended.

Starting with an open checkbook, this 1973 example has been treated to a nut-and-bolt rotisserie restoration and build emerging with a number of custom features that make it a remarkably eye-catching Bronco. Only the best quality components were used to create this super-cool

machine. The Bronco is finished beautifully in Cacao Pearl, while a 5.5-inch James Duff lift and knobby, off-road tires with custom wheels give it a dominating height. It’s powered by a new powerful and efficient Ford Performance 5.0L Gen 3 Coyote engine built with a BC Bronco’s front runner pulley setup, and custom headers and custom engine mounts were used to ensure a proper and snug fit. A new 6R80W automatic overdrive transmission channels the power and the chassis benefits from a new Borgeson steering box and a new front sway bar. The new custom leather interior features supportive bucket seats, matching door panels, a custom center console, matching plush carpeting, new Dakota Digital gauges, Vintage Air and a dash topper in dark tan, all creating an environment far more luxurious than the original.

In pristine condition, this incredible vintage Bronco is ready for anything – exhibiting at shows, cruising around town or hitting the trail in the backcountry. Arguably the most rapidly appreciating segment of the market is that of the custom built early SUVs. Great custom builders are often backed up with orders, taking more than two full years and hundreds of thousands of dollars in advance to be completed. Why wait? Catapult yourself to the front of the line and add this impressive Bronco to your stable.

1931 Cadillac V-12 Dual Windshield Sport Phaeton 443

• Beautiful comprehensive restoration

• Documented with a copy of its build sheet

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 1003698

• Well-equipped with an abundance of accessories

• Formerly of the Sid Craig Collection

In 1931, Cadillac introduced the V-12 which was essentially a shortened sixteen. The V-12s were manufactured to extremely high-quality standards and differed only in details of trim and, of course, engine size of the V-16 line which cost nearly twice as much.

Cadillac now had offerings for the connoisseur of the venerable V-8 for the most discerning elite clientele which were offered on

chassis from the 134-inch V-8 to the massive 148-inch V-16. Catalog coachwork was available from Fleetwood and Fisher and, under the direction of Harley Earl, the smallest details of fit, finish, and function were attended to. Indeed, it was only a genius like Earl that could conceive of styling under the hood, which was applied by the Art & Color Section and gave both models a particularly attractive

presentation. Luxuriously trimmed interiors for both of the in-house bodies were supplied by Fleetwood and, of course, any Cadillac chassis could be ordered bare and fitted with bespoke coachwork from any of the world’s finest coachbuilders. Despite the financial downturn caused by the crash of the stock market in October 1929, the V-12 still had an innate appeal among the shrunken pool of prospective buyers. For 1931, alone, a total of 5,733 examples were built, half as many as the V-8 despite costing over thirty percent more.

This Fleetwood Five-Passenger Dual Windshield Sport Phaeton is beautifully proportioned on its 140-inch wheelbase and has benefited from an extremely high-quality restoration performed in the mid to late 2000s. Documented by a copy of its build sheet from the GM Heritage Center media archives, Chassis 1003698 is fitted with abundant accessories including a rear folding windshield, wind wings, dual enclosed side-mounted spares, a pair of remotely operated Cadillac Lorraine spotlights, chrome center-lock wire wheels, luggage rack, dual Pilot-Ray driving lights and radiator stone guard. It is attractively presented in two-tone blue-gray with gray coach lines which complements and enhances the lines of its Fleetwood coachwork. The interior is upholstered in black leather. A tan cloth top bound in black leather piping completes the Fleetwood-coordinated ensemble. The quality of the restoration is superb with little use since completion. The chrome is still excellent, and the

body displays only very minor wear to the paint finish, which could easily be returned to a more competitive level of presentation.

Before the current owner acquired Chassis 1003698 in the fall of 2011, it had received some very thorough freshening for its mechanical systems and cosmetics. In 2010, the entire fuel system was sorted including a rebuild of the fuel tank by Roppel Industries which also included treatment with Gas Tank Renu. The fuel-sending unit was rebuilt by John Wolf, and the carburetors were both rebuilt and painstakingly tuned using dual vacuum gauges. Very recently, the exhaust manifolds were removed and restored by Prairie Auto Porcelain and reinstalled with new gaskets. The cooling system was also serviced, which involved removing and extensively flushing the radiator and both cylinder blocks. The water pump was removed and rebuilt with a new stainless steel pump shaft, new packing, and new flex couplings. All six wire wheels were removed and restored by Dayton Wire Wheels of Dayton, Ohio. This example is superb and is recognized as a Full Classic® by the Classic Car Club of America. Many regard the '31 Cadillac V-12 Phaeton as one of the best driving open cars of the early '30s. The very well-balanced, 135-horsepower V-12 engine will propel its lightweight Fleetwood coachwork on parades or on tours at modern highway speeds securely, silently, and rapidly and will still be ready at the end of the day to be displayed with pride.

• Numbers-matching DB Mark III

The Aston Martin DB Mark III is arguably the most enchanting sports car to ever be conceived under the Union Jack. With the swagger of Sean Connery and the sophistication of John le Carré, this thoroughly British DB Mark III matches handcrafted luxury with sporting road manners in an inimitable, svelte body draped over its impressive engine. This numbers-matching time capsule is 1 of only 84 drophead coupés produced, which makes it as rare as it is undeniably desirable.

Aston Martin’s path to stardom was paved with myriad obstacles. It began as a boutique operation between two racing enthusiasts who were forced to shift gears, so to speak, amidst two world wars. Aston Martin was essentially pulled from the blitz-fueled rubble by industrialist, David Brown, hence the DB designation, and the small firm was given a glamorous second chapter. This period was truly a golden era for Aston Martin. Early efforts included a 14-car production that was a mere

warm-up for the DB2, which found ample success, but the next model would become the most evolved and sophisticated of the line. The DB Mark III was featured in motorcar enthusiast Ian Fleming’s spectacular James Bond novel, Goldfinger, and the movie rights would trigger an ongoing love affair with Aston Martin on the silver screen. The devastatingly beautiful DB Mark III, bodied by Tickford and equipped with W.O Bentley’s 2,922cc dual-overhead cam, inline six-cylinder engine, was the post-war sensation the firm had been working toward. It launched Aston Martin into stardom and resulted in one of the most desirable sportscars to ever roll out of Britain. Only 551 units were produced, but the impact they left behind is staggering, making them all the more valuable today. Of that number, only 84 were produced as drophead coupés, and a mere 64 of those feature twin-SU carburetors, as offered here.

The influential DB Mark III revealed a gently swelling front end that tapered with swan-like grace to the rear and is a snapshot of the sheer elegance and nuance in the British firm’s styling. Inspired by their DB3S racecar, the design included a revised grille opening that has continued in the Aston look today. The design cue became a trademark look and it was flawlessly echoed in the cabin with the cowl-like arch over the driver’s Smiths instrument panel, designed by Frank Feeley. Below the bonnet, the improved DBA engine delivered a bolstered block and crankshaft and a new cylinder head with expanded valves. The clutch and gearbox were revised and Laycock overdrive, as well as front disc brakes, became available in later models like this one. This 1958 Aston Martin DB Mark III Drophead Coupé is offered with its original owner’s manual, toolkit and matching numbers that correspond to its British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate and factory build sheet for Chassis AM30031579, Engine DBA1259

and Body TC.129. Built July 3, 1958, the left-hand-drive Aston was delivered to New York importer of British automobiles, JS Inskip. It spent most of its life on the East Coast before undergoing a correct restoration decades ago. The previous owner had this DB Mark III for well over a decade and preserved it in storage for many years. When this sleeping beauty awoke, she was still equipped with the original inline-six engine, optional Laycock overdrive four-speed gearbox and twin-SU carburetors. This marvelous Aston has recently undergone a thorough servicing that includes restoration of the original radiator, engine, gearbox mounts, Girling brake calipers, wheel cylinders, and brake master cylinder; cooling and brake hoses as well as rubber components have been correctly replaced, and a rebuild of the carburetors and brake fluid reservoir have been conducted. It comes with new 185VR16 Pirelli Cinturato CA67 tires, a new engine gasket set, clutch disc, clutch cover, clutch release bearing, and water pump. Wholly unadulterated, Engine DBA1259 performs as an honest driver that starts, runs and drives, although further inspection is recommended prior to a lengthy road tour. Robed in an elegant peony maroon, offset by the iconic grille, factory optional chrome wing mirrors and complete brightwork, the wholly original drophead coupé is stunning with its tan top and matching tan leather interior. With only 84 drophead coupés produced and a mere 64 with the DBA engine equipped with twin-SU carburetors, this numbers-matching example presents an incredibly rare chance to own a complete Aston Martin DB Mark III. You’re about as likely to find the signed first edition Goldfinger in which DB Mark III stars as you are to find another opportunity quite like this. One thing is for sure, an open-air spin in this DB Mark III will be significantly more fun.

1925 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost Piccadilly Roadster 445

• Known ownership history from new

• Documented since new with extensive service records and notes from previous owners

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: S100LK

• A lovely example that has been faithfully toured throughout the globe

The Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost series of cars first came to market in 1906, originally called the “40.50 h.p.” The cars were first produced in Manchester before moving to Derby in 1908 and to Springfield, Massachusetts, from 1921 to 1926. They were originally powered by a 7,036cc straight-six engine before a more powerful 7,428cc unit was introduced in 1910. The chassis were fitted with various different styles of bodies by coachwork companies, with

the same chassis being used as the base for Rolls-Royce Armored Cars during World War I. Only 7,874 Silver Ghosts were produced from 1906 to 1926.

This particular example, Chassis S100LK, is the last right-handdrive, four-speed-gearbox car manufactured in Springfield, Massachusetts, and began life with a Town Car body. It was purchased as such on April 14, 1925, by W.H. Porter of New York

City. He owned the car in its original configuration until 1934, when he gave it back to Rolls-Royce and had them swap the Town Car body for a Piccadilly Roadster body (#M588) from chassis number S164JH that was owned by Walter Reade of Deal, New Jersey. The body was also altered to resemble a Playboy, lowering the car and the now one-piece windshield, adding valances over the rear springs, and changing the wheels to 20-inch.

The Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost Piccadilly Roadster was sold in 1935 to a New York advertiser named John MacKenty, who spent his spare time on Ashakomaksett Farm at Martha’s Vineyard. The car spent the duration of WWII there and was entirely painted grey to avoid it being spotted by patrolling U-boats. Mr. MacKenty bought the car with around 40,000 miles and reportedly drove it less than that during his ownership. In 1957, it made its way to Ken Sowles of Falmouth, Maine, as confirmed by the included Schoellkopf Card. Sowles was a close friend of Prince Phillip, who often asked him for horse and carriage advice and invited him to the Windsor Horse Show. In service records dating back to 1987, Mr. Sowles frequently had the car serviced at The Vintage Garage in North Brookfield, Massachusetts, which is documented by a stack of records. After 37 years of ownership, the car was sold to its fourth owner in 1996, who continued maintaining the car and toured England, Scotland, Canada, and the western/southern United States with it over the span of 17 years. He meticulously

kept track of all repairs and maintenance performed on the car, also at The Vintage Garage, dating back to 1996 when he purchased the car. May of 2000 saw the Rolls receive a new fuel line with a new coil, and fan belt; a repaired clock followed in September. In December, the differential was cleaned, a new gear set was installed, the rear axle was refurbished, the rear brake linings were redone, and the rear and front shocks followed suit.

Fast forward to 2010, and the straight-six engine under the hood received a full rebuild, from top to bottom, totaling just under $4,800 and giving this British beast a new lease on life. The fourth owner continued driving the car until 2019 before selling it to the current consignor. Mid to late 2020, the radiator was balanced and readjusted at American Honeycomb Radiator in Bowdoin, Maine. The most recent service record on file dates to November of 2021, when the connecting rod and piston assembly was refurbished. Upon purchase, the new owner will receive the original owner’s manual and pouch, original keys, a vast amount of service records on file, and several pieces of correspondence between the previous owners of this car.

As it sits, this gorgeous British roadster is an extremely well-sorted example with plenty of interesting historical details to boast. Its itinerary of meets and tours attended throughout the world since 1996 serves to show how appreciated a classic Rolls-Royce like this is at any Concours-style event and how well-cared for this example has been.

1914 Lozier Model 84 Runabout

Well known in the Midwest as one of the largest bicycle manufacturers, Henry Abram Lozier would sell his company and establish a new company in 1900, known as the Lozier Motor Company, which was located in Plattsburgh, New York. Lozier focused on developing marine engines for the first two years, but by 1902 the company began experimenting with gas and steam-powered automobiles. The first automobile would hit the market in 1905, a 30-horsepower four-cylinder tourer that was offered at a large sum in the day, $4,500. In 1908, the company would debut a six-cylinder model. Building a reputation for constructing high-quality machines, Lozier automobiles were some of the most expensive vehicles one could acquire at the time.

For 1914, Lozier built an all-new model, known as the Model 84. It was powered by a four-cylinder engine and was the result of the joint efforts of the company’s new President, Joseph Gilbert, and Design Project Engineer, John Perrin. The Model

84 was built to compete with the four-cylinder engine of the Cadillac, which at the time was selling a little over 15,000 units per year. In aiming for Cadillac, Lozier also picked a fight with another marque, Stutz, as their Bearcat model was near equal in size, price, and power.

Starting with a bare Model 84 Lozier chassis, Stuart Laidlaw of Laidlaw Classic Automotive Restoration & Sales was tasked by the Don Boulton Collection to create a new Model 84 body. Specializing in brass-era automobiles, Laidlaw had no doubts when taking on the task, as he would use Lozier factory photographs and blueprints to construct this elegant runabout body. Painted in a patriotic color scheme of white with blue fenders and subtle red pinstriping, this Lozier's stance is further enhanced by a black top and blue Houk wire wheels, which was a period option for this model. The exterior is distinctly dressed in an array of period components like gas light lamps on both sides, two large exclusive Lozier-built headlamps at the front, a

single unique maid/mechanic seat placed outside the passenger side cabin, and a rear-mounted full-size wheel and tire. The seats are upholstered in black and proved a comfortable ride for two. Attached outside the cabin, but close to the steering wheel, is a Warner Auto-Meter gauge and Hopkins Electric Speedometer. Mechanically, power is sourced from a 56-horsepower 368.8-cubic-inch L-head inline four-cylinder engine that is backed by a four-speed manual transmission. Under the body lies a solid front axle with semi-elliptic leaf springs, a live rear axle with platform leaf spring suspension, and two-wheel mechanical brakes.

Beautifully presented and well-cared for while in the current owner's impressive automobile collection, this mechanically sound pre-World War I automobile is an excellent applicant for Concours and vintage touring events around the country, or as a leisure automobile for Sunday jaunts throughout the countryside.

1987 Lamborghini Countach 5000QV 447

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN:

ZA9CA05A4HLA12053

Engine No: 1166

• Single ownership since 2003

• Recent complete engine, suspension, and clutch rebuild

• Documented by over 60 service records and a clean CARFAX®

Throughout the long and coveted history of the automobile, few cars have achieved legendary status quite like the Lamborghini Countach 5000QV has. A potent blend of cutting-edge design, blistering performance, and a revolutionary powertrain, the Countach became a true symbol of the ‘80s supercar era. The roots of the Countach date back to the early 1970s, when Lamborghini unleashed the first prototype at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show.

• U.S.-spec factory fuel-injection example listed in the Countach Registry

Penned by visionary Marcello Gandini at Bertone, its wedge-shaped body, scissor doors, and bold angles redefined automotive design language. Initially known as the LP500 prototype, it was later named the “Countach”, an Italian exclamation of astonishment, which perfectly summed up its, let's say, radical aesthetics. As the years rolled on, Lamborghini continually refined the Countach, culminating in 1987, to create the 5000QV

(Quattrovalvole) model. Beneath its unmistakable exterior, the heart of the 5000QV was a naturally aspirated, mid-mounted V-12 engine. The roaring 5.2-litre V-12 engine generated an awe-inspiring 420 horsepower and accelerated from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 4.5 seconds, all while soaring to a top speed of 180 miles per hour.

Originally delivered to Lamborghini East, in New York on October, 8th, 1986, this 1 of just 610 produced Countach 5000QVs is finished in the attractive and desirable color combination of Rosso over Nero with gold phone dial wheels. A U.S.-spec factory fuel-injected example, it elevates its rarity among its peers. Acquired from a collector in Pompano Beach, Florida, the previous private owner located in Texas would take ownership in 2003 and hold onto this example until 2023. Under his ownership this raging bull would receive a major service that was comprised of a complete engine rebuild, a service/rebuild of the suspension, a rebuild of the clutch, and the cooling system was upgraded as was the air-conditioning to accommodate the Texas heat. This service happened around 15,000

km ago and is documented by invoice records that are on file. Since then, this Lamborghini has been faithfully exercised and is reported to drive without flaws. Benefiting from a recent cosmetic refresh, this Countach presents very well, and the all-original Nero interior remains in very nice condition. It has also benefited from a recent service by marque specialist Evan’s Automotive in Columbus, Ohio. It is worth noting that this Countach wears correct P7 tires dated 2019 that have plenty of tread left for spirited drives.

Along with the sale of this outstanding automobile, comes the factory manuals, tools, spare tire, extra key, clean CARFAX®, and over 60 invoice sheets documenting past care and maintenance. This road-going missile is a testament to Lamborghini’s prowess, combining raw power with the mechanical symphony of an era celebrated for its analog charm. Documented in the Countach Registry and lovingly cared for and appropriately exercised, this Rosso Red 5000QV is set and ready for continued enjoyment and appreciation by its next fortunate caretaker.

1969 Chevrolet Corvette L88 Convertible 448

• 1 of only 116 L88s built in 1969

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 194679S710164

• Documented with its original tank sticker and Protect-O-Plate

• Bloomington Gold Special Collection participant in 1988 and 2008

In the Corvette realm, factory options and engine displacements can take an example to a whole new stratosphere and price range, and this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette L88 Convertible is the perfect example of that. Intended to be a high-winding street legal competition car built for maximum performance, the L88 Corvette was largely misunderstood by the public

• Factory equipped with the M22 “Rock Crusher” four-speed manual transmission, 4.56 Positraction rear end, K66 transistorized ignition, and J56 heavy-duty brakes

• Among the most desirable and valuable high-performance automobiles of the era

at its time of arrival in 1967, making them among the rarest Corvettes to come across today. As 1 of only 216 L88 Corvettes built during the model’s three-year production run, this example is even rarer, as it is 1 of just 116 examples produced in 1969.

The introduction of the L88 caused equal amounts of excitement

and confusion among potential buyers with Chevrolet actively discouraging orders from anyone but professional racers with established relationships in Detroit. Cryptically designated as an “off-road vehicle” with a laughably conservative 430-horsepower rating and stiff pricing ($1,032 by 1969), the L88 appeared to the casual observer as being less powerful at twice the price of the readily available 435-horsepower, “Tri-Power” RPO L71 engine package. Even the exotic aluminum-head L89/L71 427 engine was less costly and seemingly easier to obtain at your friendly local Chevy dealer. However, the L88 was sold short to the public, as it produced well over 500 horsepower in reality and was the most powerful Vette one could acquire.

The incredible power delivered by the L88, and the Corvette’s outstanding handling and uncanny balance made these thinly disguised racing cars capable of using every bit of the L88 engine’s monstrous output. According to conservative test results, the L88 Corvette was more than capable of breaking the 150-mph barrier straight from the showroom floor. According to Tony DeLorenzo, one of the most successful Corvette L88 racers in the period, a 155-mph straightaway blast at an early race was sufficient to deter his dad – a GM marketing executive at the time – from attending his races for the next two years. With proper gearing, stickier tires and some basic tuning, plus a competent driver, 11-second elapsed times in the quarter mile were easily achieved with the L88.

For 1969, a total of 38,762 Corvettes were produced, accounting for just 0.003 percent of all production, the L88 was the rarest Vette one could lay eyes on. According to its NCRS Shipping Data Report, this example was built on December 9th, 1968, at the Saint Louis, Missouri plant. After taking ownership, the original owner, a resident of the state of Michigan would embark on a 6,000-mile round trip to Alaska in the spring of 1969. Upon his return

to Michigan, this L88 was sold to an amateur race car driver and was used as a drag car. The third owner would take ownership in 1986 and shortly after commission a body-off-the-frame restoration, including sourcing a period-correct replacement engine, which is documented with photos and would be completed in 1988. Once completed, to no surprise, this Fathom Green L88 was invited and displayed in the prestigious Bloomington Gold Special Collection, one of the most exclusive invitations a Corvette can receive. Under the same owner, this 1969 L88 Convertible was invited back in 2008 to be displayed in the Bloomington Gold Special Collection as part of the L88 Invasion.

Aside from the desirable 500-plus horsepower 427-cubic-inch L88 V-8 engine, factory options and features are extensive with this example, as confirmed by its original fuel-tank sticker. Options include the M22 “Rock Crusher” heavy-duty four-speed manual transmission, F41 special performance front and rear suspension, J56 heavyduty brakes, K66 transistor ignition, 4.56 Positraction rear-end, A82 headrests and a factory heater. In addition to its black factory-fitted soft convertible top, this Corvette was also ordered new with a desirable color-matched Fathom Green C07 auxiliary hardtop.

Most recently this L88’s interior was freshened with new and correct upholstery, as well as carpeting. Documented by its original tank sticker, Protect-O-Plate, NCRS Shipping Data Report, and Bloomington Gold Special Collection paperwork, this hidden gem is without a doubt the real deal. A race-bred high-performance street legend in every respect, exceedingly rare, and immensely collectible, this 1969 L88 Corvette is, simply put, one of the most desirable Corvettes, and certainly one that stands out in any collection. For those looking to drive the awesome L88, look no further. We are very pleased to offer this great example and encourage all to consider its acquisition.

• Documented by the Deluxe Marti Report

• Full numbers matching drivetrain with power steering and power brakes

Ford’s new Torino for 1972 spread sighs of relief across Dearborn when sales reached nearly a half million units. Ford proved the formula that had worked for so many years was still valid –combining a comfortable ride, sporty styling, and V-8 performance – all without crushing the kid's college fund. After all, things in Detroit were looking a bit grim back in 1971 – import brands and

subcompacts were the hot sellers, and Uncle Sam was about to make all cars heavier and slower, so Ford stepped up with a clean sheet redesign for 1972. It was a full, wide lineup, with everything from stripped-down six-cylinder coupes to LTD-flavored Broughams to full-sized Gran Torino wagons with the three-way Magic Door tailgates. The high-performance end was covered by

the Gran Torino Sport, with a singular fastback body style and plenty of power like the car we see here today. This fine example came out of 18-year-long ownership in entirely original condition – obviously, a car that was truly cherished. The new owner used it sparingly for a few seasons and then decided the time was right to make it perfect once again and began to restore all the original components. The body was in great shape and was comprehensively repainted in the correct Medium Bright Yellow paint, with the scooped hood, vinyl stripes, and black vinyl top all beautifully presented. All of the original chrome was restored and reused, right down to the factory Magnum 500 chrome rims. Today, it’s the full factory look for one of the lowest and widest cars Ford ever built. Even the grille is unique to the Gran Torino Sport, and today, with that racy, long fastback design, it’s simply one of the most desirable cars of the era. Step inside, and slide right into the deluxe vinyl interior, with a unique split bench seat and a wood-grained interior with a cool two-spoke steering wheel. This car features the Rally Pack instrument group, tinted windows, an AM radio, and everything in top-notch condition.

Even the mirrors are color-keyed, and everyone who sees the car is impressed with how clean and accurate the interior remains. Pop the hood, and a lot of the fun begins, with a fully restored, highly accurate, numbers-matching 351 Cobra Jet engine. With that huge four-barrel carb setup and larger intake and exhaust valves in place, these beautiful engines simply breathe easier than most and pull over 266 HP. They remain today one of the most sought-after performance engines of the era, and finding a full numbers-matching drivetrain is a rarity. The correct C6 automatic transmission is in place – the one with the one-piece aluminum case and bell housing – followed by the correct 3.25 rear end. Mix in performance radials and front disc brakes, and you are ready to hit the road with a potent recipe for performance. Collectors agree that the 1972 Gran Torino Sport was a one-year highlight in an era of fading performance – just before new smog regulations and huge ugly bumpers were mandated. With just 74,000 original miles and an impressive restoration, this fully numbers-matching Gran Torino Sport simply stands as one of the very best we’ve ever seen.

• ACD Club Certified C-348, verified numbers matching example with original data tag

• Meticulously and accurately restored by Phil McCurdy only using NOS and original parts

The talents of the great designers in automotive history were an intricate part of the appearance and style of motorcars throughout the decades. Men like Harley Earl, Ray Dietrich, and Bill Mitchell literally controlled the look of the cars as they gracefully penned the style of automobiles. The art of taking a design from

• Known provenance including early Cord aficionado, the late Douglas ‘Buzz’ O’Connor; current 24 years of single ownership

• CCCA Senior and Primary 1st Award winner

• Awarded Best Cord at the ACD Club Annual Reunion

the mind to paper and then onto the chassis of a car is certainly a daunting task, for it involves artistic as well as engineering talent. One of the greats, when it came to creating elegant cars to grace the roadways, was Gordon Buehrig, whose work made him one of the premier designers of cars during the height of the Classic

Era. Buehrig’s talents were recognized very early in life when, at the age of 25, he was Chief Body Designer for Duesenberg. His work there was prominently displayed on what is arguably one of the most beautiful cars ever built, the famous Model J. Throughout his entire life he designed beauty in motion and his talent never disappointed. Although Buehrig is responsible for some excellent automotive artwork, many today will say the pinnacle of his talent is reflected in the famous Cord 810/812. Clean lines, precise curves, and proportions that are near perfect are just a few of the ways to describe the beauty of these automobiles. If all of the wonderful design elements weren’t enough to grab attention on these cars, a supercharged eight-cylinder engine complete with elegant and eye-catching side pipes would certainly do the trick.

Buehrig’s work is on full display in this factorysupercharged 1937 Cord 812 Cabriolet finished in timeless Cigarette Cream over a maroon interior. Having been under the current ownership of the same caretaker for the last 24 years, he would acquire it from the late Douglas C. ‘Buzz’ O’Connor. ‘Buzz’ was a well-known and early Cord aficionado, as he was one of the first Cord collectors ever to drive his car to Auburn, Indiana from the West Coast, and when the ACD certification process was started in 1982, Buzz was one of the first to get his car certified. Buzz acquired this 812 SC in 1980; he drove and showed it at various meets before calling upon Phil McCurdy in Washington for a thorough and meticulous restoration. Having been old friends with Glenn Pray, ‘Buzz’ was able to source parts with ease, ensuring that only original and, if needed, NOS parts would be used during the restoration. Unfortunately, Buzz

passed before the restoration was completed and the current owner, a well-known and respected collector, would acquire this Cord and have McCurdy finish the restoration.

Under the current owner's care, this Cord was certified once again. During the certification process noted ACD authority and and Judge, Rick Zieger stated that this example was the most accurate and correct Sportsman that he had ever encountered and that it should be the benchmark by which every other should be used for judging and restoration. High praise, indeed. Documented on its ACD Club Certification, signed off by Paul Bryant and Jim O'Brien and verified by its original tag, which is still attached to the car, this 812 supercharged Cord retains its original numbers matching engine and components. Winning a CCCA Senior and Primary 1st Award, as well as Best Cord at the ACD Club Annual Reunion, this example has been marveled upon across the country. This SC Cabriolet presents remarkably well, with no signs of blemishes or mellowing of the original factory colored paint and the chrome shines brilliantly. Furthering its desirability, this SC Cabriolet is equipped with both a radio and a heater and is accompanied by a tool pouch containing original tools.

Restored by experts and in excellent order throughout, it is likely the very finest, accurately restored example of this highly prized model. It is now offered for public sale for the first time. Its condition, authenticity, provenance, rich history and stunning presentation provide an outstanding opportunity to acquire an important Supercharged Sportsman worthy of a home in the most discerning collections.

To call the Aventador LP700-4s design iconic, would almost feel like an understatement. The razor-sharp edges, scissor doors, and low-slung stance exude an aura of both sophistication and ferocity. Each curve and contour serve a purpose beyond aesthetics, with aerodynamics harnessed to keep this untamed beast firmly planted on the pavement while achieving blistering fast speeds.

Furthering its already aesthetically pleasing presence, this LP700-4 has been through the hands of world-renowned Alex Vega, known as 'The Guy' in the custom Lambo world and owner of The Auto Firm and creator of Avorza in Miami, Florida. Formerly owned by two-time MLB All-Star and two-time MLB Home Run Derby champ, Yoenis Céspedes, he would commission Alex Vega to completely transform his beloved Aventador. Having completed cars for numerous A-list celebrities and sports athletes from around the world, like Floyd 'Money' Mayweather and the fastest man on the planet, Usain Bolt, the outcome would be this showstopping one-of-one Lambo. With a customization price tag totaling well over $100,000, this Aventador was draped inside and out with a one-off Satin Black and “Metallic Blue Edition” color scheme that gives it a truly sinister look. Fitted with custom Avorza AV3 forged wheels that incorporate the same colors as the body, they complete the car’s mesmerizing stance. When the sun goes down, simply flip a switch and the custom LED blue lights under the car and in the engine casing will light up the night. Stepping inside the LP700-4’s cockpit is like entering a luxury-filled, futuristic realm reserved for a lucky few, as it has been given the same one-off custom Avorza treatment by Alex Vega. The seats match the overall Satin Black and “Metallic Blue Edition” theme and offer a comfortable ride. Vega

also added a custom stereo system for the cabin and built a custom amp and case that is placed in the front hood and displays Yoenis Céspedes' name. The driving experience of this 2013 bull can be described as nothing short of exhilarating. With a mid-mounted DOHC 48-valve V-12 monster that produces a thrilling 691 horsepower, it’s not a car for the faint of heart; it demands respect, extracting a commitment from its driver that borders on obsession. For those willing to embrace the challenge, the reward is an adrenaline high that resonates long after the engine and custom Avorza exhaust are silenced. Capable of a 2.9-second 0 to 60 time and a top speed of 217 miles per hour, it is in a league of its own among almost all supercars. According to the clean CARFAX® report, this car has seen previous service at Lamborghini Houston and is said to perform very well when driven.

The Lamborghini Aventador was, and always will be, an untamed beast that leaves an indelible mark on the automotive world and one that transports the driver and passenger into a realm of sensory overload. Enhanced customization by one of the top shops in the country for one of the biggest names in Major League Baseball at the time, this 2013 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 is an enduring testament to the allure of raw power and beauty in its purest form.

• Highly desirable factory supercharged example

• Multiple Best in Class awards; ready for display at prestigious events

• Wonderful Art Deco styling cues

Since the very first automobile was built, innovation has been the key element in improving its design. Through constant refinement and better engineering, the American automobile is the story of a never-ending quest for comfort and speed. Graham made its mark by fitting factory superchargers into their production-based cars in the 1930s. In a day when Ford’s

• Offered from a noted pre-war collection

• One of the finest restored Grahams extant

V-8 and Chevrolet’s inline six were rated at just 85 horsepower, Graham’s supercharged six-cylinder engine was cranking out an astounding 106 horsepower. With a reputation hard-earned through competition, Graham’s cars were both fast and stylish. In a time when performance was a mere afterthought, Graham’s cars were setting records at racetracks and hill climbs all over the nation.

Offered here is a superbly restored example of the Graham legacy, a 1937 Supercharged Series 116 Sedan. Finished in a stunning silver gray, this fine piece of Graham’s excellent engineering is arguably one of the finest restored examples. Power for this Graham comes from its 199.1-cubic-inch inline six, complete with a supercharger, generating 106 horsepower, which enables effortless cruising at 65 mph all day long, making it ideal for tours around the country. The beautiful condition of this Graham is accented by a high-caliber restoration that features striking attention to the paint, interior, engine, and the undercarriage. It has also been fitted with new running boards that make for a spectacular exterior appearance. In the spirit of camaraderie, the Graham brothers had their likenesses set into the hood ornament wearing the helmets of royal knights and this example displays their legacy with pride. Most impressive is the amount of Art Deco styling influence in this outstanding car. From the five creatively styled chevrons on the sides of the hood to the beautifully styled grille, this Graham incorporates a level of design that is seldom seen on a regular production car of this era. The interior is especially enticing with correct Mohair and cloth upholstery featuring fine stitching and elegantly styled door handles also designed in the Art Deco motif. Even the hands of the clock and speedometer

carry a look of fine elegance usually reserved for custom-bodied cars. There’s also no shortage of chrome on this Graham as headlamp nacelles, bumpers, and horns gleam with a mirror-like finish. When the current owner acquired this example in 2013 for his extravagant pre-war collection, it had already been given its stunning body-offthe-frame restoration and won numerous Best in Class awards. Ensuring it stayed in immaculate condition, this Graham has always been stored in a climate-controlled facility and has been faithfully maintained and carefully exercised. Having not made a public appearance in quite some time nor made its debut at the Graham Owner’s Club International meet, this 116 Sedan will surely make a grand entrance and command attention wherever it is shown. Throughout automotive history, there are chapters that represent true innovation and cuttingedge engineering. The supercharged Graham is surely one of these, as no other production-based car in America offered such performance from a six-cylinder car. The Graham legacy lives on in this stunning example of their fine engineering and beautiful Art Deco styling. This spectacular Graham is a car that will have a special place in any collection and is certain to make an impressive entrance onto the show field.

1953 Chevrolet Corvette Roadster 453

• Desirable first year of the Corvette

• Number 114 of only 300 built in 1953

• Freshly restored by noted early Corvette specialist Irvin Patrick

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: E53F001114

• Provenance includes single ownership for over 50 years

Without question, the Chevrolet Corvette stands as the longest-running and most successful line of sports cars ever produced. Debuted as a concept car at the 1953 GM Motorama Show in New York, the bold Corvette caused such a stir that it was fast-tracked for development and production. Getting Corvette production up and running was no small task, given the fact it was the first mass-produced car with a fiberglass body. First-year

• Never before shown and ready for NCRS and Bloomington Gold judging

sales amounted to just 300 units for 1953, and with the addition of Zora Arkus-Duntov to the Corvette engineering team, the radical new Chevrolet sports car was relentlessly developed and improved along all disciplines into a true sports car capable of besting the world’s finest – on and off the racetrack. Offered here is Corvette Number 114 from the mere 300 built for the inaugural year of 1953. This Corvette has just emerged from a full, complete, and total

restoration by noted Corvette specialist Irvin Patrick in Paintsville, Kentucky. Nothing was overlooked in returning this historic car to factory-new condition and it looks today just as it did when it left the factory. All Corvettes built for 1953 wore recognizable Polo White paint with a Sportsman Red interior and correctly, this one is no exception.

The current owner, a well-respected early Corvette collector, acquired 114 after it had resided in New York with the same owner since the late ‘60s, as evident by a New York vehicle registration sticker attached to the front window. The timeless elegance of the first-year Corvette is nicely outlined in this example, which features flawless bodywork and excellent panel fit throughout. The restoration of Corvette Number 114 was recently commissioned, with great care taken to ensure correctness. During the process, it was taken down to the frame and all colors, inspection markings, and assembly methods were accurately replicated. Power for this Corvette comes from Chevrolet’s proper “Blue Flame” six-cylinder engine mated to a Powerglide automatic transmission. The engine was completely rebuilt, and all correct paint colors, wiring, hoses, clamps, and fasteners were utilized. All first-year

Corvettes were built with a striking Sportsman Red interior that made great use of contrasting colors with the steering wheel, instrument panel, and accents all finished in white, while the upholstery, carpets, and door panels are red. All 1953 Corvettes used a black canvas convertible top and the one on this example is simply excellent, with proper fitting and correct stitching. The interior was correctly restored and includes a Chevrolet’s ‘Wonderbar’ signal-seeking AM radio. All told, Corvette Number 114 stands ready to be judged for the first time at top events around the country like Bloomington Gold® and NCRS meets.

There are many landmarks in automotive design that changed how America viewed a sports car, but the Corvette was the first, as it blazed a path for all to follow. First-year examples are truly rare and rather hard to come by, and those few that are authentically restored to exact factory specifications are even harder to find. This 1953 Corvette, with its attention to detail and master craftsmanship, is a car that will stand tall among the very best on any show field. Simply put, this 1953 Corvette is a must-have for the serious collector of Corvettes and important American sports cars.

by Pininfarina 1990 Ferrari Testarossa 454

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN:

ZFFSG17A4L0083995

Body

• Just two owners and only 4,148 original miles from new

• Ferrari Classiche Certified, retains its original window sticker and title

• All-original example and recent Ferrari dealership engine-out servicing

• Includes a rare six-piece collection of Schedoni leather luggage

The Ferrari Testarossa defined an entire generation of automobile design. As iconic as MTV and shoulder pads, but with exponentially more timeless style for the long haul, the “redhead” quickly became the best-selling 12-cylinder in Ferrari’s history and its collectible value is only beginning its meteoric rise today. With less than 5,000 miles on the odometer, this ridiculously fresh,

all-original example might as well be a dealership demo. Having had only two owners and a recent, engine-out Ferrari dealership servicing, this pristine 1990 Ferrari Testarossa is as new as you’re going to get without hopping into Marty McFly’s DeLorean to time travel.

Quintessential to the iconography of a generation, the Ferrari

Testarossa changed everything when it debuted at the Lido Night Club during the 1984 Paris Motor Show. Its evocative angular wedge physique and daring side strakes captured the pulse and energy of the Eighties and would usher in a dozen-year production run and the most successful 12-cylinder engine Ferrari ever envisioned. It reveals Pininfarina bolstered form with function in every detail. The iconic egg-slicer side strakes were actually implemented to assuage an American law against open side intakes where the side radiators of the powertrain lurked. The strakes were brilliantly implemented into the bodacious body and the red vixen’s most famous styling feature was born. The body’s sleek wedge flowed through to an alluring wider rear end, which allowed for enhanced stability and handling for the mid-engine placement and the result was an aesthetic masterpiece. The style was matched with ample substance beneath the unmistakable body. The 4.9-litre, flat-12-cylinder engine delivered 385 horsepower and 361-lb-ft of torque, which screamed across the blacktop at a top speed of 180 miles per hour and delivered a blistering performance of 0 to 60 in only 5.2 seconds. The front and rear independent suspension with unequal-length wishbones allowed the car to practically corner like it was on rails and halt on cue with four-wheel ventilated disc brakes. It has become much more than the embodiment of an era; it has evolved into a timeless classic that’s even more desirable today than it was the moment it rolled out of Maranello.

This incredibly well-kept, all-original 1990 Ferrari Testarossa is finished in classic Rossa Corsa paint over

rich, tan Connolly leather interior and is equipped with a rare six-piece collection of Schedoni leather luggage for the pinnacle in Italian luxury. The current owner purchased this car from the original owner and has continued its unparalleled stewardship. This Testarossa boasts a shockingly low 4,148 original miles and is truly one of the most pristine all-original examples in existence. Its classic Rossa Corsa body bears fabulous original, factory paintwork and still has its Ferrari ‘original painting’ sticker affixed inside. Handled with kid gloves for the entirety of its pampered life, it has never endured a wreck and only bares a whisper of patina to its all-original paint and Connolly leather upholstery. The cockpit is adorned with classic tan Connolly leather accented with deep brown leather around the dash and instrument panel and black leather for the three-spoke, Ferrari-badged steering wheel. The beige carpeting is original to the car and although it shows slight foxing of its age, it is without stains and the mats are vividly crested with Ferrari’s red prancing horse. This ready-to-enjoy, low mileage example has undergone an extensive engine-out Ferrari dealership servicing, has been equipped with new tires for its original, Ferrari-badged, five-star alloy wheels, and is firing on all twelve cylinders. Ferrari Classiche Certified with matching numbers and boasting its original title and window sticker, this is one of the finest, all-original Ferrari Testarossas, and represents an unbelievable opportunity to add a wholly intact example of the prancing horse’s most popular 12-cylinder to a world-class stable of supercars.

BMW returned to six-cylinder power for its top-of-the-range models in 1968 with the launch of the 2500 and 2800 sedans together with the stylish 2800 CS coupé. Designated 'E9', the latter was powered by the 2800 sedan's M30 engine, though it's running gear had more in common with the existing four-cylinder 2000C/ CS. The 2800 CS's replacement by the similarly styled 3.0-litre CS in 1971 brought with it numerous improvements, including fourwheel disc brakes in place of the old disc/drum combination. With

plenty of power on tap, the 3.0 CS was good for more than 130 miles per hour. The E9 moved BMW up to directly challenge the fastest sports cars in the world. Successful competition appearances include the European Touring Car Championship ('73, '75, '76, '77, '78 and finally '79 – some years out of E9 production) and class victories at Le Mans, Spa, and Daytona. These triumphs had coincided with the growth of some of BMW's most significant tuning partners; Schnitzer Motorsports and, of course, Alpina.

With the announcement of the new 3.0-litre, six-cylinder range in 1971, BMW refined the existing six-cylinder 2.8 cars while retaining many of their most successful features. The sporting and elegant two-door coachwork reflected strong Bertone influence while Karmann reworked the chassis which now incorporated most of the suspension parts from the luxury 3.0-litre sedans. The 2,986cc, six-cylinder, single overhead camshaft engine now developed approximately 190 HP at 5,800 rpm for 1972 U.S. spec cars while power for the CS models was transmitted through a four-speed manual gearbox. The supremely stylish coupé coachwork was built by Karmann and, in the configuration of the car offered, a top speed of 131 mph was on tap with 0-60 mph acceleration in just 8 seconds. This fabulous 3.0 CS combines this fantastic sporting DNA with Wilhelm Hofmeister's fabulous Teutonic styling. The trunk affixed CS badge stands for Coupé Sport, indicating the sporting intentions of this beautiful two-door hardtop. Beautifully finished in Chamonix (white), named after Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, the highest summit in the Alps. This highly desirable BMW is one of approximately 450 3.0 CS models produced for the U.S. market. As a U.S.-edition, E9 3.0 CS, this BMW is one of the rare examples delivered with a muchpreferred four-speed manual gearbox as well as the desirable carbureted six-cylinder engine. This

made the 3.0 an excellent choice for cruising the back roads or comfortable enough for long-haul road trips.

Benefiting from decades of proper care, this rare CS is highly original, as opposed to having been taken apart and restored. This condition is much sought-after by many enthusiasts but rarely exists. The car appears to have received a quality paint refinishing many years ago that at a glance looks to be original but is indeed a gracefully patinaed repaint. The brightwork and trim are in great condition, having aged at the same rate, but both paint and trim present well.

The interior is highly original with some light character marks in the rich, blue leather that are another indication of the well-preserved state of this rare car. The interior wood trim is just starting to show some aging, adding to the charm of this Bavarian beauty. At some point, the car acquired a period-correct three-spoke wood steering wheel that complements the cabin’s elegant design. The jack and tool kit still reside in the trunk. Factory air-conditioning, power steering, and power brakes all add to the comfort and enjoyment while driving this classic BMW. Rare, and in an excellent state of preservation, this highly desirable 3.0 CS is a beautiful example of one of Bavarian Motor Works’ finest accomplishments of the era.

1935 Auburn 851 SC Phaeton 456

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 31899H

Engine No: GH2860

• Beautiful body-off-the-frame restoration

• Six-time Best of Show winner; Displayed at the 2007 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance

• CCCA Senior Emeritus and AACA Senior Award winner

• Impressive supercharged eight-cylinder engine with desirable Columbia two-speed rear axle

Despite the lasting effects of the Depression, Auburn continued to produce some of the most attractive cars available to automotive buyers. In 1935, Gordon Buehrig’s trendsetting styling made the 851 and 852 some of the most attractive cars in the history of the Auburn Automobile Company. Building on original body designs by another talented designer, Al Leamy, Buehrig

softened the edges and drew on inspiration from the Art Decoinspired and streamlined California Zephyr locomotives of the era. Presenting what one could call a voluptuous blending of rounded and smoothed lines with just the right mix of bright metal trim, the 1935 Auburns were stunning and gave the impression that they were traveling at 100 miles an hour even when standing still. All

of the new Auburns were powered by the proven Lycoming inline eight-cylinder engine which was rated at 115 horsepower. However, the improved Schwitzer-Cummins supercharger boosted the official output to 150 horsepower for those cars lucky enough to be so equipped. These automobiles were guaranteed to be capable of delivering speeds in excess of 100 mph and going from a standing start to 60 mph in just 15 seconds, which was considered neck-snapping speeds for the mid-1930s. Ab Jenkins, well associated with both Auburn and Duesenberg, took a 1935 Auburn 851 to the Bonneville Salt Flats and established several land-speed records.

Acquired by the current owner in 2010, this stunning deep green 1935 Auburn 851 Supercharged Phaeton has been meticulously kept and maintained in his private pre-war automobile collection for the last 13 years. Formerly owned by Robert Pass in the mid to late ‘90s, this 851 SC was then sold to a collector who commissioned a restoration that took place from 1998 to 2003. Before being restored, it is reported to have been original in every aspect. This Auburn would then go on to capture numerous prestigious awards around the country, which include 16 national awards, 6 Best of Show awards, the Ab Jenkins Award by the ACD Club, its AACA Senior award, and its CCCA Senior Emeritus. Most notably, it was shown at the Pebble Beach Concours in 2007 and was awarded a green ribbon for partaking in the Pebble Beach Tour d’Elegance presented by Rolex. Under the current owner's care, this SC Phaeton furthered its list of awards by winning a first-place ribbon at Cincinnati Concours d’Elegance, being shown and displayed at an Indianapolis 500 Celebration, and it was exhibited

at the annual Labor Day Weekend ACD Club Reunion numerous times with great admiration.

An unmistakable presence and appearance, thanks to the stylish supercharged exhaust pipes that flow from the engine bay, this 1935 Auburn 851 Supercharged Phaeton encapsulates the very best of the Auburn Automobile Company and makes onlookers stop and stare wherever it is taken. Wearing its body-off-the-frame restoration from the early 2000s, it still presents very well today. Visually complemented by Firestone blackwall tires, other notable features include a passenger side-mounted spare tire enclosed by a color-keyed case, Auburn 8 hubcaps with beauty rings, a venting windshield, and a rear bustle back trunk.

Mechanically, this rare Auburn has been dialed in, leaving the 150-horsepower, 280-cubic-inch Lycoming eight-cylinder engine with its SchwitzerCummins supercharger to fire right up and perform without flaw, making it ideal for tours. Additionally, this SC Phaeton is fitted with the trusted and durable Columbia two-speed rear axle, allowing lower gearing for quicker acceleration, combined with a higher final drive ratio for improved driving at modern-day speeds.

Well-maintained both cosmetically and mechanically, this award-winning, factorysupercharged Full Classic® is an excellent example for tours, CARavans, or the next addition to one's exclusive automobile collection. Considered one of the finest vehicles to leave the Auburn Automobile Company factory, this 851 SC Phaeton in its attractive and classy color scheme is set to never lose its dramatic flair or its important place in automotive history.

Coachwork by Carrosseriefabriek P.J. Pennock & Zonen 1947 Delahaye 135M Cabriolet 457

• Recent concours restoration by Jim Capaldi of Cleveland, Ohio

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 800405

• Beautifully styled Pennock coachwork and 1 of a mere 60 produced

• Limited ownership and offered from a significant collection

Nothing pairs better with a glass of champagne on Pebble Beach’s 18th than a Delahaye. The French marque and the finest coachbuilders of the golden age of automobile design delivered bespoke rolling works of art that are truly spectacular. Each example is virtually a one of a kind and their existence is often a tale of unlikely survival. This evocatively styled 1947 Delahaye 135M Cabriolet was penned by lauded Pennock Coachworks of The

Hague, Netherlands and was culled from limited ownership that includes a storied pre- and post-war collection. Pennock crafted a mere 60 bodies for the grand marque and this dazzling example, restored and robed in burgundy and black, exemplifies the Dutch firm at its finest.

After World War II, Delahaye returned to business with a show-stopping second act to its Le Mans-winning 135M, which was equipped with a more

powerful 3.6-litre, overhead valve, six-cylinder engine and triple Solex carburetor option. Old-world coach houses were still de rigueur in Europe then and Delahaye’s chassis and powertrain were entrusted to the finest coachbuilders of the era. Carrosseriefabriek P.J. Pennock & Zonen, of The Hague, was celebrated for its eye-catching designs as well as its innovative engineering. They utilized less timber framing and welded their captivating coachwork directly to the chassis, which delivered a taut body entirely without rattle so its owner could enjoy the blissful rumble of the 3.6-litre engine instead of the clatter and jangle of lesser-mounted coachwork. Founded in 1889 by Johannes Pennock, Carrosseriefabriek P.J. Pennock & Zonen became the largest, most illustrious coachbuilder in the Netherlands and was responsible for designing bespoke cars for Prince Bernard as well as Queen Juliana of Holland. Each automobile was unique and handcrafted. Pennock only built bodies on 60 Delahayes and each enduring example is an important survivor of automobile history. This particular Type 135M Cabriolet is truly a work of art with dramatic fender arches offset by seven evocative, crescent side strakes on each side of the bonnet, creating an ideal marriage of form and function. Head on, the Cabriolet is framed by perched headlights and chromed louvers that draw focus to the dramatic grille that is rimmed in brightwork, filled with matching burgundy stripes, and adorned with a red and chrome Delahaye crest at its apex. The rear end of the car tapers dramatically and effectively giving the curvaceous body an angular denouement that captures the look of flight. The result is an automobile of staggering beauty and magnificent styling.

The history of Chassis 800405 was traced through Delahaye with ownership beginning in Holland to H. NDwee of Rotterdam. It was brought to North America by Comens Motors of Kitchener, Ontario in 1979. Alexander

Drapanas of Buffalo, New York purchased the Delahaye in April 1981 and then imported it to the U.S. where it remained a focal point of his world-class collection for the rest of his life. During his stewardship, the Cabriolet was ivory over black and is remembered fondly by Buffalo residents who reveled in catching a glimpse of it around town. In fact, Gloria Estefan was photographed riding in the car when she performed at the races and a photo signed by Gloria to Alex is included in the sale. Mr. Drapanas’ incredible collection was sold following his death in 2015 and Chassis 800405 was purchased by the current owner who has had this magnificent Delahaye lovingly restored to its former glory over the course of many years. The interior alone was crafted over three years and boasts new carpeting, a correct new top, and an expertly tailored black interior with red centers. Jim Capaldi of Cleveland, Ohio executed the body and mechanical restoration of the car to Concours standards. Chassis 800405 retains its original restored engine and carburetors and is mated to a period-correct upgraded transmission. Mr. Capaldi entrusted the restoration of the original dial work to John Wolf of Cleveland who has done an absolutely superb job. All of the striking gauges look as they would have the day they rolled out of the Pennock studio. Robed in a dazzling red burgundy with black contrast on the fender skirts and top, the wire wheels and flawless brightwork create quite the presentation. The cockpit is equally impressive with correct, new black carpeting, and black leather upholstery with expertly tailored red centers, which augments the rich woodwork, immaculate knobs, and restored gauges. This newly restored Delahaye, with a known ownership history that is as limited as it is exclusive, is poised to roll onto the greens of important concours events or be celebrated at any venue its next fortunate owner chooses to take it.

• AACA Grand National Award winner in 2019

• The exact model and finishes of the Buick in the 1988 movie, “Rain Man”

For a car in a movie to become an icon, several things need to align correctly: first, the car itself has to be striking, and then, the stars of the film need to be memorable, and the movie itself needs to be popular and universally respected. All of these things lined up in 1988 with “Rain Man,” directed by Barry Levinson and

• Framed poster signed by starring actors Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman

starring Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise. Along with the Best Picture Academy Award, the film cemented the Sequoia Cream 1949 Buick Roadmaster convertible as the third star of the film. This 1949 Buick Roadmaster model 76C convertible is identical to the famous movie car with lovely Sequoia Cream finish over

a red leather interior. Accompanying the Buick is a signed script from the movie director and a movie advertisement signed by Tom Cruise and Oscarwinning actor Dustin Hoffman, this lovely example features a spectacular full frame-off restoration by noted Buick expert Doug Seybold, and it has won just about every major award such a car can win, including an AACA Grand National First Prize in 2019. It's just gorgeous in person. The finish quality is obviously excellent, with great panel gaps, a deep gloss to the finish, and show-quality chrome and stainless trim. The car has been driven and enjoyed since its show days, and the only wear apparent are minor chips along the hood opening.

The red leather interior is finished to factory specs using special hides that Seybold has custommade just for his restorations. Slight wrinkling on the driver's side seat back is the only wear apparent. All of the instruments were restored and are fully operational, and as Buicks' top-ofthe-line model, literally, everything was standard, including power windows, a power front seat, and a power convertible top, all controlled by a massive hydraulic pump under the hood. With the Dynaflow transmission, it's incredibly easy to drive, and there's also an accessory tissue dispenser under the passenger's side of the dashboard. The back seat is big enough for adults and the enlarged trunk is correctly finished, including a matching spare tire and factory jack assembly.

Buick’s big 320-cubic-inch straight-8 engine needs no introduction, offering 150 horsepower and a massive wave of torque at just about any speed. It was one of the most powerful engines on the market in 1949, even with the introduction of Cadillac’s OHV V-8 that year. Fully rebuilt and highly detailed for show, it remains a fantastic driver and starts easily. The finishes and hardware are correct throughout and with the Dynaflow transmission, it cruises easily at 60-65 mph without much work. There's correct new wiring throughout, the radiator keeps things nice and cool, and it includes an accessory oil filter bolted to the side of the block. You'll also find a nicely finished undercarriage that wears basic black—that's how Buick built them in 1949. The exhaust is hushed, the under-seat heater is effective, and thanks to Buick's front A-arms and torque tube suspension, ride quality is impressive. Massive drum brakes at all four corners are effective for the car's performance and it sits on 15-inch wheels with 8.20-15 BFGoodrich Silvertown wide whitewall tires, as original.

Charlie Babbitt’s autistic brother inherited their father’s estate, except for some rose bushes and the ’49 Roadmaster Convertible. It made for a great movie, which was the highest-grossing film of 1988, and made a star of the impressive Buick convertible. Today, you can own the very same model car, one that is in excellent condition and ready to receive all the attention it deserves.

VIN: 8T03J205235

• Listed in the Shelby Registry

Carroll Shelby had proved his modified Mustangs were potent cars by the mid-1960s, on and off the track. Building on the success of the 1965 and 1966 GT350s, Shelby introduced the GT350’s first refresh in 1967. The aggressive look featured a new hood design, round lights integrated into the grille, and scoops added to the rear quarter windows as well as into the side coves ahead of the rear wheels. At the back of the Shelby, a rear spoiler

was integrated into the trunk and rear quarter extensions and the customary Mustang tri-bar taillights were replaced with a set of sequential lights borrowed from the Thunderbird. For 1968, the hood design featured a more pronounced twin-snout hood scoop, and the grille lights were changed to a more rectangular shape. The Shelby GT350 line underwent several other notable changes for the 1968 production year. The first of these changes was rooted

in its name. The GT350 was now marketed under the Cobra name, which Ford quickly began using in the vast majority of its sales and promotional literature. Now known as the Shelby Cobra GT350, the iconic Mustang-derived racer was fitted with a factory 302-cubic-inch V-8 powerplant. This GT350, number 03156, according to its Deluxe Marti Report, was produced June 3, 1968, and delivered to Paul’s Ford Sales in Kansas City, Missouri. Finished as it was from the factory in rich Highland Green paint over black interior, this Shelby is both accurate and authentic. One of only 404 GT350 convertibles produced for the 1968 model year, it is equipped with the high-performance 302-cubic-inch, 335 horsepower, J-Code V-8 engine that features an all-aluminum Cobra intake manifold, Cobra valve covers and most significantly, a factory Paxton supercharger. Factory equipment and options include a C-4 automatic transmission, power steering, power front disc brakes, extra cooling package, heavyduty battery, Shelby ten-spoke wheels, power convertible top, bucket seats, console, tachometer with trip odometer and Tilt-Away steering column. The highly original interior is equipped with a roll bar with integrated shoulder harnesses, Cobra branded seatbelts and console armrest, Philco

radio, and Stewart Warner accessory gauges. The aforementioned Deluxe Marti Report is included with the car, as is the original owner’s manual. The originality of this car is remarkable. Muscle cars have many times led a hard life, subject to being modified, raced, abused, and crashed, requiring major restoration efforts to bring them back to their original form and condition. This car somehow escaped these fates and remains in a rare state of quality preservation. So much so, it was recognized by the Mustang Club of America as National Points Champion when it was shown at the Club’s 1989 National event. Carroll Shelby liked it as well when he autographed his signature on the inside of the center console lid. There is nothing quite like a well-preserved largely original car. The solid driving experience and the fit and finish are as unique, just as they were when new. It is difficult, and many times impossible, to totally dismantle and rebuild a car precisely as it was from the factory. An original car is a window into the past, allowing us to see what it was like to be on a showroom floor or used car lot half a century or more ago. Immensely collectible, this 1968 Paxton Supercharged Shelby is simply a pure example of its rare and legendary breed.

power and aerodynamic speed to bless automotive enthusiasts around the world with this 2021 Ford GT Carbon Series. As one of the most exclusive Ford GTs offered since its resurgence in 2015

at the Detroit Auto Show, this example is 1 of just 50 Ford GT Carbon Series manufactured across the globe. Offered from its singular owner, this Ford GT has had the unique opportunity to be under the ownership of one of the people responsible for designing the 2016 Le Mans-winning Ford GT and production Ford GTs.

Having been on the Ford Design team for multiple years working on various projects, Russell Sims, an emerging Ford design team engineer, was selected and tabbed by the Heads of Ford with a top-secret project code-named “Phoenix”. Operating out of the “Batcave”, the basement of the Ford design studio to keep things as quiet as possible, Russell and team began designing the components for the 2016 Ford GT that would take on the notorious 24 Hours of Le Mans. Once finished, Sims and the other members of the top-secret Le Mans Ford GT project accompanied Bill Ford and other Ford executives to France to watch the Ford GT take home a historic first-place finish while in Ford’s exclusive presidential suite above pit lane. With a storybook ending, the next task was going back to the States and finalizing the production Ford GTs that would revolutionize the supercar class across the board.

Fast forward a few years later, and Sims would be given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and granted an allocation for one of the most exclusive Ford GTs one could obtain. Serial number M099 was hand-selected as an upside-down homage to the Ford GT40 that won Le Mans in ’66. This example is finished in the sinister shade of Shadow Black with the Carbon Series exclusive gloss carbon fiber package. The exterior is further enhanced with a $20,000 Carbon Red graphics package that adds a

single red stripe, red brake calipers, and matching red mirrors that few Ford GTs possess, as it resembles that of the 2016 Le Mans-winning Ford GT.

Coming in at an astonishing 40 pounds lighter than a base Ford GT, the body panels, bonnet, bumpers, doors, front splitter, rear diffuser, shell, underbody shield, retractable wing, and 20-inch gloss exposed wheels are all constructed of modern-day carbon fiber. Adding to its weight reduction, this example left the factory with equipment Group 600A, which consists of titanium lug nuts, a titanium exhaust, a lightweight Alcantara steering wheel, and a lightweight titanium tow hook. With carbon fiber components used throughout the entire cabin, the interior of this supercar is designed to cocoon the driver in total luxury and comfort, all while reaching blistering speeds. Ford balanced the mix of performance and driver comforts by equipping this vehicle with air-conditioning, an adjustable steering wheel, adjustable carbon fiber Alcantara wrapped Sparco seats, a radio, and the Sync 3 Apple CarPlay technology pack.

Once the car is started and the titanium exhaust unleashes its very intense and amplified rumble, this Ford GT Carbon has one mission, to attack gravity like nothing else on the road, as it is as close as one can get to having a street-legal Formula 1 race car. Between its lightweight carbon fiber body, aerodynamic design, and 660 horsepower, mid-mounted twin-turbocharged engine, this GT teleports from 0 to 60 mph in a time of 3.0 seconds and can cover a quarter mile in 10.8 seconds, all while achieving an impressive top speed of 216 mph.

Carrying merely 1,800 miles from new and having already had its first servicing and oil change, all of the break-in miles have been worked out and this Ford GT presents itself as one that can be thoroughly enjoyed now and still gain value in the future. A pinnacle in the current owner's career, having been on the design team that engineered these secondgeneration Ford GTs, he explains that driving this car is unlike anything else on the road and is one that every enthusiast and serious car collector should have on their bucket list. Having enjoyed this example for the last two years, he is ready for someone else to experience the same excitement and pure joy he has while owning this GT.

This Carbon Series GT is accompanied by its original order documentation, window sticker, photos from the build at Multimatic, exclusive design-team-only Autodromo Ford GT watch, and Multimatic team exclusive ‘1,000’ Ford GT poster. The next owner will also receive a Ford GT order

kit, which the current owner is also responsible for designing while working on the Ford design team. The exclusive Ford GT order kit comes in a latching carbon fiber case that includes exterior color samples, one of which is a one-of-one master paint sample of the Heritage Edition Ford GT, interior material swatches, and miniature replicas of various wheel and brake caliper options.

Simply put, this Ford GT Carbon Series is not just a machine, but a combination of art and automobile that carries an allure that stirs passion within everyone that glances over it. This final-year example is the fastest and lightest, and therefore the best iteration of all the Ford GTs. It is every bit as exhilarating to drive as it appears and is a supercar that encapsulates the essence of the Ford spirit. The ultimate expression of one of the world’s most widely recognized supercars in existence, this design team, one-owner, virtually new 2021 Ford GT Carbon Series has already achieved icon status.

1972 Volvo P1800E Coupe 461

• Recent rotisserie restoration

• Last year of the iconic P1800 Coupe

• M41 four-speed manual gearbox with electric overdrive

• Equipped with four-wheel disc brakes

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 1826353038478

• Bosch D-Jetronic electronic fuel injection

Debuting in 1960 and popularized by The Saint television series, starring Roger Moore, Volvo's dashing P1800 sports coupe, although not a high-speed Grand Touring car, was nonetheless something of a radical departure for the conservative Swedish manufacturer. Based on the rugged 121 sedan, the P1800 was built initially by Jensen Motors in West Bromwich. Breathing through twin carburetors, the 1.8-litre engine produced 100 HP, which

was powerful enough to propel the solidly built coupe to a top speed of around 105 mph. The running gear was conventional, with independent front suspension and live rear axle, and all versions came with servo-assisted front disc brakes. Production of the P1800 was transferred to Sweden in 1963. Subsequently, revisions were made to the design to enhance performance, comfort, and convenience.

In 1970, Volvo introduced Bosch D-Jetronic fuel injection on the 1800, replacing the "S" suffix with an "E" for Einspritzung, the German word for fuel-injected. The 125-horsepower injected B20 engine enabled a top speed of 112 mph; the brakes were improved also, with discs replacing the rear drums. On the inside, Volvo addressed reviewers' longstanding complaints about the silver and turquoise instrument panel, updating them with Smiths’ black-on-white gauges set in imitation wood. For 1972, a new seat pattern, plus a folding rear seat backrest for added usability was incorporated into the interior. A new wheel pattern was also introduced in 1972. The injected cars are also identifiable by the black plastic vents on their rear fenders, with the driver's side also incorporating the fuel filler door. The alloy grille was painted black in 1970, then replaced by a concave, plastic grille in 1972. Production of the P1800E Coupe was limited to 1,865 units for the 1972 and final model year. The P1800ES wagon would end after 1973. This handsome P1800E was manufactured in November of 1971. Exceptionally clean, rust-free, and finished beautifully in its original code 105 Gold Metallic, it benefits from a recent rotisserie restoration. The quality of the paint and body are exceptional to say the least, highlighting its seductive Italian-inspired styling. The chrome and brightwork gleam in harmony with the deep, mirror

gloss of the paint. The original 15-inch steel wheels have been refinished as well and feature the correct Volvo ”V” logo center caps with correct lug nuts and are wrapped with new Michelin 185/70 VR 15 tires. Showing just 56,515 miles on the odometer, the attractive and sporty interior is correct and highly original in areas such the as the headliner and embossed door panels; however, the comfortable bucket seats have been correctly restored as well as the carpet. The dash features a clean original dash pad with woodgrain trim that houses a full complement of stylish Smiths gauges that include oil pressure, oil, and temperature gauges as well as a tachometer to monitor the peppy engine under the hood. The dash also houses a factory clock and factory Volvo AM/FM radio, plus a passenger-side grab bar. Under the hood is tidy and a new exhaust system allows the perky four-cylinder engine to rev freely. Featuring a desirable M41 four-speed manual gearbox with electric overdrive and spritely fuelinjected 125-horsepower engine, this classic Volvo is as at home on twisty backroads as it is on the open road. Volvos of the era are increasingly gathering the attention of collectors but are rarely seen restored to such a high standard as this car, presenting a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional example of the last and most refined iteration of the iconic P1800 Coupe.

Coachwork by Barker 1937 Rolls-Royce Phantom III Sedanca de Ville 462

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

• Well known with detailed provenance from new

• Marvelous example for classic car tours and Rolls-Royce Owners’ Club events

• 1 of just 727 Phantom IIIs produced

• A fascinating example retaining its original 7.3-litre twelve-cylinder engine

VIN: 3BT149

Engine No: E58X

Body No: 7296

Blessed with exceptionally well-detailed provenance from new, this 1937 Rolls-Royce Phantom III is 1 of just 727 chassis produced and marks a genuinely thrilling find for marque collectors and enthusiasts alike. Bearing Chassis Number 3BT149, it retains its original V-12 engine, E58X. It also has its original and decidedly sporting two-door, “four-light” Sedanca de Ville body by Barker,

bearing number 7296. Recorded “off-test” on April 27, 1937, 3BT149 was completed and delivered new on September 8, 1937, to Thomas John Hughes, a Solicitor resident in Grosvenor Square, London, and registered ‘EGX1’ under him. Given its production timeframe, the body for 3BT149 was consequently one of the last created by an independent Barker prior to its takeover in 1938 by rival firm Hooper.

Mr. Hughes faithfully retained 3BT149 until May 1959, when he sold it via Rolls-Royce dealer Paddon Bros. to the colorful American bank president and prolific classic car collector Mills B. Lane of Atlanta, Georgia. Registered ‘WYF III,’ the Phantom III was humorously dubbed “The Third Wife” by Mr. Lane, who kept the Phantom III in England, where Paddon Brothers cosmetically restored it. Among the items addressed, BT149 was retrofitted with a spare wheel/ tire and spare-tire carrier to the passenger side, fitted with new tires, equipped with new carpeting, and the interior was comprehensively detailed. A new Everflex removable front roof cover was also assembled and installed, and the body was stripped, prepared, and refinished in Rover Donkey Brown to the body, and the wheel discs and spare wheel covers were painted Austin Farina Grey. Interestingly, the new exterior color combination was suggested by none other than award-winning designer Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky, who had relocated to Georgia and forged a friendship with Mr. Lane during the early 1960s. During this period, shortly before the Count’s eventual passing, he created a series of beautiful watercolors depicting the beautiful motorcars, including 3BT149, that formed the Lane Collection. Featuring de Sakhnoffsky’s colors, 3BT149 was exhibited by Mr. Lane at a Rolls-Royce rally held at Blenheim Palace, where its next owner first encountered the unforgettable P III.

The P III was exported to the United States in 1961, and the Mills Lane Collection was offered at auction in 1965. However, 3BT149 passed unsold and was

eventually in the hands of a dealer in Nebraska, through whom it was purchased in 1967 by its next owner, a confirmed Rolls-Royce collector, enthusiast, and expert, who would retain and cherish 3BT149 for the next 55 years. During that time, the Phantom III participated in CCCA CARavan tours and was exhibited in numerous Concours and Rolls-Royce Owners’ Club events. The Phantom III was also a virtual fixture in print publications, including RollsRoyce Owners’ Club magazine, The Flying Lady, and The Classic Car, published by the Classic Car Club of America (CCCA).

A fabulous and fascinating example of the flagship, 7.3-litre twelve-cylinder Phantom III, 3BT149 remains simply captivating with its older yet wellpreserved restoration. Cherished by just three long-term private owners, meticulously restored, and lovingly maintained through the years, 3BT149 is ideal for enjoyable classic tours or casual shows. Importantly, the V-12 runs exceptionally well, with the power and refinement expected of a dialed-in Phantom III. Service records as recent as mid-2022 show the critical cooling system is in good health. A show car that stands tall as a fine classic touring car, this marvelous Phantom III is accompanied by most of its factory tool kit still in place, plus an owner’s handbook and a wealth of documentation confirming its outstanding provenance. A truly rare and distinctive Phantom III, 3BT149 remains a beautiful example of Barker’s renowned coachbuilding prowess and the engineering excellence of Rolls-Royce.

1960 Bentley S2 Saloon 463

• Beautifully restored and finished in Metallic Champagne livery

• Well-maintained and mechanically ready for continued enjoyment

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: B446LBS

• Burled walnut interior woodwork crafted by William Rau of Rau Autowood

• Timeless style and elegance

As Bentley’s stablemate to the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II, the S2 debuted in September of 1959. While retaining the basic chassis and design language of its predecessor, the S1, the new Bentley S2 finally marked the arrival of the all-new 6.2-litre overhead-valve V-8 engine for which the Cloud/S-Type was designed. Under relentless design and development cycles over the previous decade by the

renowned engineers at Crewe, UK, the new powerplant featured lighter weight, all-alloy construction and would continue through 2020 – a remarkably long production life and the truest testament to the design's inherent excellence.

The coachwork of the steel Saloon for the Bentley S was accepted with open arms by not just the public, but also marque experts.

Bentley expert Johnnie Green said this in his definitive book “Bentley: Fifty Years of the Marque” about the S2 coachwork, “its lines, to say nothing of its interior appointments, were so faultless and modern that the task of the specialist coachbuilders had become a much more difficult one.”

A beautiful example that encapsulates everything the Bentley name stands for, this 1960 Bentley S2 Saloon is presented as 1 of just 1,863 examples produced. According to build records that were supplied by the Rolls-Royce Owners' Club, this left-hand-drive S2 was delivered to an American customer via famed importer J.S. Inskip of New York. The first owner was Allison L.S. Stern, and this example was originally finished in Black Pearl Valspar over Beige Vaumol leather trim. Documented by receipts kept by prior ownership, this S2 Saloon would have an extensive mechanical and cosmetic overhaul in the late 1990s and early 2000s, during which, it would be finished in its present Metallic Champagne paint and the interior would be fitted with parchment leather accented with claret carpets and piping, as well as comfortable rich maroon floor mats. Adding to the elegance of the interior, renowned artisan William Rau of Rau Autowood crafted the wood-rimmed steering

wheel and rich burled walnut interior woodwork. Interior options include power windows, a discreetly and professionally installed modern Alpine stereo system, air-conditioning, and fold-down trays for the rear passengers.

Formerly owned by a Bentley connoisseur and active Rolls-Royce Owners' Club member, this S2 was thoroughly maintained and was occasionally driven and shown at club events. Both the 380-cubic-inch, 6.2-litre V-8 engine, and four-speed automatic transmission are in top order and ready to be enjoyed by the next caretaker.

Accompanying the sale of this S2 Saloon is a hardbound 3rd edition Bentley S2 Owner’s handbook, copies of the Bentley’s chassis-card records, and a file of service and restoration receipts from prior ownership. Well-maintained and highly attractive, thanks to its thorough restoration and care under its current ownership, this elegant Bentley will be a welcomed addition to Bentley Drivers Club meets, tours and a host of events. It has been said that the loudest thing in an S2 Bentley is the ticking of the clock. They are beautifully built cars that have stood the test of time and are as much a statement of taste and refinement today as they were some 63 years ago.

1931 Ford Model A Special Delivery

Having closed the book on his very successful and long-running Model T, Henry Ford chose to return to the beginning of the alphabet for its successor, the Model A, introduced in December of 1927. Although bearing a familiar resemblance to its predecessor, the A was all-new in many ways. Along with the Model A platform, Ford introduced an array of light commercial vehicles, such as panel and special delivery trucks.

Based on the style 150-B second-generation Station Wagon, this Special Delivery is a rare and seldom-seen two-door variant. Priced at $615, whereas the steel panel delivery was about $400, only 904 units were produced, and it is believed

that a mere 15 or fewer are known to survive today. Formerly owned and meticulously restored by master pattern maker and cabinetmaker, Vic Peres of Pennsylvania, this Special Delivery 255-A was finished to correct and show-quality standards. Beautifully restored and varnished to an impressive shine, the birch and maple body was originally built by the Baker-Rauling Company of Cleveland, Ohio. Like all Special Deliveries, this example is finished in Manila Brown with a single side-mounted spare tire and wheel. However, unlike other commercial vehicles, the 225-A has a bright stainless grille shell, headlight buckets, roll-up windows, and distinctive two-door barn-door style rear doors with unique hinges.

Under the hood, this Special Delivery has the standard Model A mechanicals, as it sports a 200.5-cubic-inch inline four-cylinder engine, which has been fully rebuilt and runs great. Capable of reaching speeds just below 50 miles per hour, it's ideal for parades, local shows, and making the occasional run to the hardware store.

Accompanying this rare Model A is a copy of its 1932 commercial vehicle registration. A rarely seen model, as it is believed to be 1 of less than 15 to survive today, this beautifully restored Special Delivery 255-A is a guaranteed eye catcher at any show or meet that it attends.

1989 Ferrari 328 GTS 465

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: ZFFXA20A4K0082867

• Final year of the much-loved 328 GTS

• Clean CARFAX®

• Recent belt servicing, documented by a binder of service records

Launched at the 1985 Frankfurt International Motor Show alongside the 3.2 Mondial 2+2, Ferrari’s new 328 continued and built upon the mid-engine V-8 layout of Ferrari’s two-seat sports cars established by the Pininfarina-designed 308 GTB and GTS models. Featuring taut bodylines clearly descended from its more curvaceous predecessors, the new 328 was also offered in Berlinetta (GTB) and Targa-type (GTS) body styles. Aerodynamic

• Accompanied by tool roll, jack, and factory books

• One of the last Ferrari models engineered during Enzo Ferrari’s lifetime

enhancements ushered in by the 328 included bumpers closely integrated with the bodywork, a new frontal treatment with a wider grille, and a discreet rear spoiler mounted atop the rear roofline. Aesthetics aside, lowered aerodynamic drag and improved downforce at high speeds were dual benefits of the redesigned body of the new 328.

Mechanical updates heralded by the 328 included a larger-displacement 3.2-litre development of the four-valve 308 Quattrovalvole engine, hence the new Ferrari’s ‘328’ designation, denoting 3.2 litres and eight cylinders. As with the preceding 308 models, the 328’s engine was transversely mounted in a unit with the all-synchromesh five-speed gearbox assembly, which was positioned below and to the rear of the engine’s oil sump. Handling is outstanding, with braking to match, and enhanced by mid-1988 with the addition of ABS. Striking “flatface” five-spoke alloy wheels were utilized during the 328’s early years, becoming reshaped to a convex shape to accommodate the new ABS-type braking system of the later-production cars. In addition to cutting-edge styling and performance improvements, the 328 also delivered greater interior comfort with optional air-conditioning and reshaped seats, plus further attention paid to driverand-machine interaction.

The 328 was produced for only four years until the fall of 1989, when the 348 TS debuted as its replacement, making the 328 the last of the long line of transverse mid-engine Ferrari models dating back to the 1960s. The 328 is also historic, as it is one of the final models launched during the lifetime of Enzo Ferrari, the company’s legendary founder. Just 6,068 Targa-top 328 GTS examples were produced during the four-year production, ensuring it would never lose its desirability and collectability stature.

Acquired from Wayne Carini at F40 MotorSports in

Portland, Connecticut, the current owner welcomed this lovely 328 GTS into his collection in the summer of 2022. This Ferrari is documented by a clean CARFAX® report, extensive service records, and a letter from F40 Motorsports stating they have known the car since new and have worked on it since the 1990s. The next owner can rest assured that this Ferrari has been well-cared-for and looked after since being sold new in October of 1989 to Gary Cassone of Pennsylvania. The most recent major servicing took place at the end of 2021 with a total cost of just over $6,000, which consisted of all new belts, pulleys, and a new water pump and gaskets, all of which is on file. Finished in a classic Ferrari color scheme of Rosso Corsa over a Nero Connolly leather interior, this GTS attracts attention wherever it is driven and presents very well. Equipped with a five-speed gated manual gearbox, this GTS is open Italian motoring at its finest, especially when the glorious howl from the mid-mounted quad-cam

3.2-litre 260-horsepower V-8 engine is firing on all cylinders and sprinting down the road.

Along with the enjoyment the next owner will get from being the winning bidder, this Ferrari is accompanied by a binder full of service records, clean CARFAX® report, tool roll, jack and its factory books. Offered from the final year of the 328 GTS and welcomed at Ferrari events and clubs around the country, this Ferrari has been lovingly cared for its entire life and is ready for continued spirited driving by its next caretaker.

1974 Alfa Romeo Montreal 466

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: AR1440210

Engine No: AR00565S010

• Numbers matching example finished in its original factory-delivered colors

• Best in Class at the 2022 Detroit Concours d’Elegance

The Montreal offered here, chassis number AR1440210, is just 1 of only 104 right-hand-drive examples produced. Manufactured in October 1974, the car was originally exported for the Australian market, where it completed final assembly. The Alfa Romeo appears to have spent the first part of its life in the Melbourne area until May 2, 1987, when the current owner and consignor, a former rally driver, automotive designer, and mechanical engineer, purchased

• Offered from long-term ownership of over 35 years

• Meticulously maintained; documented by 75 pages of receipts

• One of the finest and best-kept Montreals extant

the Montreal from Prestige Classic Autos in Melbourne. Shortly after acquiring the Montreal, the owner was transferred to Cologne, Germany, for work, and the car followed him and his family there. While in Germany, this Montreal was used to explore the scenic winding backroads and beautiful mountainscapes that the country has to offer. It would garner a People’s Choice and Best in Show award at a Frankfurt car show. In 1992, the consignor was again

transferred for work, this time to suburban Detroit, where, once again, the Montreal came with. When the owner arrived in Michigan, he immediately joined the local chapter of the Alfa Romeo Owners Club (AROC) and began showing his wonderful Montreal to great acclaim. Shortly after arriving stateside, the car was awarded Best in Class at the Italian Happening in Grosse Pointe, Michigan, in 1993. Over the next three decades, the Montreal would be shown many more times throughout the Midwest, becoming a staple attendee at some of the most well-known events, including Meadow Brook Concours d’Elegance, Concours d’Italia, Eyes on Design, and the Concours of America at St. Johns, to name a few. During this time, this Montreal won numerous Best in Class and People’s Choice awards as well as various other accolades.

Throughout the years, this Alfa Romeo was always kept in immaculate condition, both cosmetically and mechanically, as attested by its most recent invitation to the inaugural 2022 Detroit Concours d’Elegance, where the Montreal was once again awarded Best in Class among the stiff competition in the European Classics-Modern class. Regardless of its numerous Concours appearances and awards, this Montreal is anything but a garage queen. The Alfa Romeo was not only driven extensively throughout Germany and Europe during the owner’s time there, but it has also participated in numerous longdistance road rallies here in the USA and in Canada, including successfully completing three Michigan Mille driving tours where it flawlessly covered over 1,000 miles on each event. Given its regular spirited use, it is clear that the mechanical upkeep has been

cared for as much as its cosmetic presentation and today the Montreal remains a highly original, numbers-matching example that currently shows just over 41,000 original miles on the odometer.

Over the years, this Montreal has mostly been serviced by its more than capable owner, given his extensive automotive background, as well as by Alfa Romeo specialist Trail Auto. Most recently, from 20172022, this Montreal received a mechanical restoration that included a complete photo-documented rebuild of the engine as well as most other major mechanical components. During this time, the radiator, water pump, alternator, starter, brakes, and ECU were also rebuilt. Furthermore, in April 2021, the transmission was completely rebuilt by Alfa Parts Exchange in California, and the clutch was replaced as well. This work is further documented in the 75 pages of receipts that accompany the sale. Also included with the sale are the factory tools, jack, and spare wheel, as well as a set of period luggage.

This 1974 Alfa Romeo Montreal is a fantastic example and is arguably one of the finest and best-kept Montreals extant. It boasts exceptional provenance of caring ownership that anyone would hope for when looking to invest in such a beautiful piece of Italian workmanship. It has been incredibly well cared for by its automotive designer owner, is in exceptional condition both mechanically and cosmetically, and is being offered from long-term ownership of over 35 years. This step outside of the proverbial box has contributed to the rising collectability of the Montreal and will undoubtedly continue with this Italian gem.

2012 Morgan Three-Wheeler

The 2012 Morgan Three-Wheeler is a unique and iconic vehicle that hearkens back to a bygone era of motoring. Its history and creation are deeply rooted in the rich heritage of the Morgan Motor Company, a British automotive manufacturer known for producing handcrafted and unique vehicles. The roots of the Morgan Three-Wheeler trace back to the early 20th century when the company’s founder, H.F.S. Morgan, designed and built his first three-wheeled vehicle in 1909. This original model was known as the Morgan Runabout and featured a lightweight design and a V-twin engine mounted at the front. Its unconventional appearance and impressive performance helped it gain popularity among the motoring enthusiasts of the time. Over time, the Morgan Three-Wheeler underwent several iterations and improvements. However, the design remained consistent, combining a unique blend of vintage aesthetics with modern engineering. The production of the

three-wheeler would cease in 1953, as the company set its sights on manufacturing four-wheeled vehicles. Fast forward to 2011 and the Morgan Motor Company revived the ThreeWheeler concept, reintroducing it to the modern automotive landscape at the Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland. With a good showing and warm welcome from the public, the Morgan Three-Wheeler would go back into production.

Much like its predecessors, building this 2012 Morgan Three-Wheeler was a meticulous process that combined traditional coachbuilding techniques with modern engineering practices. The body panels were hand-formed from aluminum, showcasing a seamless blend of vintage curves and modern aerodynamic considerations. Exposing the tubular chassis and suspension components added to the vehicle's raw and mechanical aesthetic. Planted at the front of the vehicle is the lifeline, a 2.0-litre air-cooled V-twin motor that produces 82 horsepower. Combined with its

The Dodge Charger is one of the most celebrated muscle cars the brand has ever produced with a heritage that continues to endear new generations in its current iteration today. The 1968 Charger would bring Dodge back from the brink of oblivion and cement a legacy that continues to fascinate. The visionary restomod here has taken Dodge’s greatest muscle car and transformed it

into a formidable, modern street racer with one of the greatest bespoke engine builders of our time. This 1968 Dodge Charger, equipped with a supercharged Hemi, is custom-built to deliver riveting performance with the captivating look of Dodge’s greatest muscle car.

The most iconic Dodge ever produced, the Charger has seen

a massive resurgence in popularity thanks to the ever-popular four-door iteration on the streets today. The importance of the model in Dodge’s legacy and endurance cannot be overstated. The two-door muscle car brought Dodge back into the arena when Chevy and Ford were skyrocketing in popularity with their pony cars. The sleek cokebottle lines and rugged curb appeal brought something altogether new and provocative to the table and the Charger has gone down in history as one of the most desirable models in Dodge history. The 1968 revision of the Charger was truly where the model gained traction in the public imagination and a total of 96,100 were produced when a mere 35,000 were initially slated for production. The popularity nearly tripled the expected production and the model has returned for multiple acts over the years, but it was the 1968 that cemented the Charger’s legendary fate that is so celebrated today. This example was just another 1968 Dodge Charger when Gary Stanton began to work his magic. Mr. Stanton, of Stanton Racing Engines, develops performance engines for highprofile racing series including World of Outlaws, USAC and continues to design engines for Mopar and myriad others. His incomparable work has been used and celebrated by Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Al Unser, Jr., and countless other racing legends. Gary custom installed the Generation III Hemi engine in the original 426-cubic-inch displacement for this car. The 7.0-liter Hemi engine is augmented with an Arrington Racing Magnuson TVS intercooled

supercharger system that utilizes a conical air intake adorned with vintage-style 426 Race Hemi valve covers and is mated to a four-speed HT 4L80 Stage IV automatic transmission that concludes in a Ford 9-inch differential. Below the hood, the firewall, tubular engine bay, and modern cooling system are a mechanical work of art. Modern amenities include power steering and four-wheel power disc brakes. An impressive XV Level 2 suspension system is retrofitted to the car. This high-performance powertrain and suspension make for the ultimate modern muscle car that delivers all the thunderous rumble we all wish the original Charger would have achieved without sacrificing the devastatingly good looks of the original Charger.

The nostalgic, muscular factory body is robed in entirely fitting silver paint with black scat stripes that capture the glorious feel of ’68 with tasteful perfection. The Charger rides on 18x9 DUB custompainted three-piece front and 19x12 wheels in the rear, wrapped in Nitto Invo tires. The retro body belies all modern magic below the hood, but the custom cockpit welcomes you comfortably into the 21st century with luscious black leather and suede upholstery, attractive Vintage Air climate control, Dakota Digital gauges, a custom stereo system with LCD screen and a leather steering wheel. Behind the wheel of this thoughtfully appointed restomod, you can cruise the blacktop in Dodge’s greatest muscle car but leave onlookers in the dust inside a cabin that boasts every modern convenience.

1918 Rauch & Lang Electric B26 Brougham 469

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 844B26

Body No: 844

• An early pioneer in green energy and the electric car market

• Meticulously and accurately restored to a very high standard

• A rare and seldom-seen example

• Fully functional and ready for outings

Rauch & 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 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 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, this 1918 Rauch & Lang B26 Brougham is a rare and seldom seen surviving example that has been faithfully and meticulously restored to a very high standard. The original body with its nickel plating is finished in a two-tone color scheme of Crimson Red with black fenders and elegant pinstriping throughout. The appearance resembles fine jewelry that has just recently been finished and presented. Riding on wood spoke wheels that have been crowned with a lavish paint scheme and wrapped in new wide whitewall tires, the appearance is truly captivating and leaves onlookers wondering how this automobile was constructed and engineered in 1918, especially since it emulates such a quiet sound strolling down the road.

The boxed cabin has been finely restored like the rest of the car and features a rear bench seat that places the driver on the left side, as well as a single swiveling parlor seat and fixed cushion seat placed rearward. Gray cord fabric upholstery covers the entire cabin and is drawn together with subtle wood veneer on the window sills. Features include roll-up windows with blinds, “floating” flower vases in the front corners, rear corner lights, a dome light, and a rearview mirror spanning the width of the windshield. Slotted between the front seats is a cluster of gauges, which entail a gauge that monitors amperage hours, a Weston Ammeter, a Weston voltmeter, and a Warner Auto-Meter drumstyle speedometer. The driver is placed on the left side of the bench seat as the tiller steering control and hand throttle are equipped on that side. The most interesting part of this pioneering automobile is the motor and mechanisms, as it has a Hertner DC electric motor that provides five forward speeds to the rear wheels via a shaft drive and worm-drive axle. Suspension incorporates solid front and rear axles with elliptic leaf springs at the rear and semi-elliptic leaf springs at the front. This example was recently fitted with new batteries and runs on 48 volts and stands ready to take for a spin. Way ahead of its time, as well as the EV craze that can be seen today, this 1918 Rauch & Lang B26 Brougham is a true testament to innovation during the progressive era and one that set the standard for almost all EV automobiles to follow.

2005 Ford GT 470

VIN:

1FAFP90S75Y401488

• Collector-grade condition with just 2,804 miles from new

• Equipped with all four factory options

• 1 of just 96 manufactured in the rarest factory color of Speed Yellow

The coveted first-place finish at Le Mans has proved elusive to many of the world’s greatest car builders. Bentley set the mark rather early with four consecutive wins from 1927-1930. Many others laid claim to victory at the Mulsanne Straight but, when Ford went in search of bragging rights in the 1960s, they did so with gusto. So successful was their GT40 program that they actually managed

• Accompanied by a clean CARFAX®, window sticker, and factory paperwork

• A groundbreaking example with true modern icon status

to match Bentley’s record with four straight wins from 1966-1969. The GT40 went on to become a legend and it was only natural that Ford decided to honor the memory of this incredible car with a modern and updated version that could be driven on both the track and the open road.

Built using space-age materials and construction techniques,

each GT was manufactured in five stages with initial assembly performed by Norwalk, Ohio's Mayflower Vehicle Systems; paint by Saleen Special Vehicles in Troy, Michigan; engine assembly at Ford's Romeo, Michigan engine plant; and finally, the engine and transmission installation and interior finishing at Ford's Wixom, Michigan plant. Notably, the Ford GT was the last vehicle project completed at Wixom. Only 4,038 examples were produced in all, with approximately 550, 1,900 and 1,600 built during 2004, 2005, and 2006 respectively. Demand far outstripped supply, with early cars selling for substantial premiums over the basic Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price and prospective buyers vying for vehicle-production slots.

An undeniable icon of speed with modern-day class and usability, this 2005 Ford is 1 of just 96 examples to be finished in the rare color of Speed Yellow built for the 2005 model year. Presented in nearly new condition, this investment-grade Ford GT shows just 2,804 miles from new and is accompanied by a clean CARFAX®, which shows this GT has spent most of its life in the sunny state of Florida, with just three owners. Ford only offered four options for these supercars, and this fully loaded example checked the box for all four, which include lightweight BBS forged alloy wheels, red-painted brake calipers, full-length racing stripes,

and a McIntosh sound system.

The cabin is surprisingly roomy and comfy as the interior is trimmed in full leather with carbon fiber seats that are inlaid with ebony leather. Adding to the amenities of the interior, this supercar is equipped with a chilling air-conditioning system, tilt/telescopic leather-wrapped steering wheel, electric power windows, and of course the factory option Mclntosh AM/FM CD/MP3 sound system. It is every bit exhilarating to drive as it appears; the 5.4-liter DOHC V-8 engine is paired with a factory Eaton supercharger that produces an arousing 550 horsepower and completes a 0 to 60 time in a blazing 3.3 seconds. Paired with a six-speed Ricardo manual transmission and helical limited-slip differential, this Ford GT is one of the best analog super/hypercar experiences one can possibly find.

Along with the clean CARFAX®, this Ford GT comes with all of its factory paperwork, including the window sticker and official Ford Motor Company VIN certificate. This rare Speed Yellow Ford GT will not only make you the envy of other enthusiasts alike but also of those who seek the finer things in life. A supercar that is still at the top of everyone's list of cars to own or even experience from the cockpit, this particular 2005 Ford GT has solidified itself as one of the most iconic vehicles to ever grace the open road and track.

Coachwork by Derham Body Company 1930 Lincoln Model L Convertible Phaeton 471

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 63842

• 1 of only 2 known surviving examples of just 20 originally built

• Displayed at the New York Auto Show; purchased new off the show floor

• Documented ownership history from new

• A beautifully restored example of one of the rarest Model L Lincolns

A stunning example of one of the rarest Model L Lincolns produced, this convertible phaeton has a list of owners that can be traced back to when new. Originally founded to build carriages, the Derham Body Company found itself switching to automobiles to stay with the ever so changing times. The Pennsylvania company quickly built a reputation for itself and began to attract royalty

and fame across the globe to have custom-built coachwork for their own automobiles. In 1928, Derham would design a four-door Convertible Phaeton for Countess Holstein and her Hispano-Suiza chassis. A copy of the original rendering by Derham on the Hotel Astor Paris stationery is on file. Before the Hispano was shipped, it was on display in the Derham showroom and attracted the

attention of Chrysler and Packard, resulting in both companies ordering a Convertible Phaeton body for one of their own chassis. For 1930, the final year of the Model L, Lincoln decided to offer the Derhambuilt Convertible Phaeton design as well to their custom-body catalog.

To showcase this offering, Derham decided this example would be on display at the New York Auto Show. According to John Grotz, automotive historian and author, despite the stock market crash in 1929, the 1930 New York Auto Show was one of Derham’s best-ever showings, displaying a Duesenberg, Franklin, Packard, and this remarkable Lincoln. Even with much success at the show, just 20 of these 1930 Model L Convertible Phaetons were ordered. Of those 20, just two are known to exist today, and this example, chassis 63842, is the most significant of the original 20, as it was the display car at the 1930 New York Auto Show.

Accompanied by an extensive historical file that consists of handwritten letters and notes in-period, this Model L Convertible Phaeton was purchased new straight from the New York Auto Show floor by the Cook sisters who were descendants of Thomas Cook, founder of the first organized travel and tour company in 1865. The Cook sisters would use this Lincoln as a chauffeur car before gifting the car to their relative Daniel Cook, where it would then be sold along with his estate in 1951 to John Maitland for just $200. Under Maitland’s ownership, this Lincoln was repainted and fitted with a new convertible top and was reported to be in top mechanical order

as he drove it often. After being relocated for his job, he would sell the car in 1956 to a gentleman that worked for the DuMont Television Network. The television network would soon go bankrupt and force the owner to sell this Model L in 1958 to Norman Delaney of Lima, Ohio. During Delaney’s 11 years of ownership, the engine was overhauled and new rear-end seals were installed. In 1970, this Lincoln would become part of the widely known Tom Lester Collection; under his ownership, it was repainted light tan with coffee accents and vibrant orange wheels. It would then be welcomed into the Jim Watson Collection in 1985 and then be passed on to well-known Lincoln collector and enthusiast Craig Watrous in 1997. Under Watrous’ ownership, this Lincoln would take home the prestigious Lion Award at the 2010 Meadow Brook Concours. Shortly after, the current owner would welcome this rare example into his own impressive pre-war collection, where it has been meticulously maintained and always stored in a climate-controlled facility.

A rare and seldom-seen body style, this Model L Convertible Phaeton’s prestige is further enhanced with multiple accessories like dual cowl lights, dual enclosed side-mounted spare tires, a trunk rack and trunk, and a Trippe driving light. With ample room in the interior and the 90-horsepower 384-cubic-inch V-8 engine in good running order, as this Lincoln has always been well-kept, this 1 of just 2 surviving Model L examples is the ideal choice for a rare touring vehicle as it will be welcomed and invited to events all across the United States.

1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Veloce Spider 472

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: AR149502264

• 1 of just 32 examples built in 1957

• Numbers matching example verified by its Alfa Romeo Historico Certificate

• Documented no-expense-spared restoration by Alfa specialist

• Sought-after and eligible for prestigious vintage racing events around the globe

The Alfa Romeo Giulietta started as a 2+2 coupe dubbed the Giulietta Sprint, introduced at the 1954 Turin Motor Show. A year later, it was joined by the four-door Berlina and a few months later by the open two-seat Giulietta Spider with bodywork by Pininfarina. A faster version of the Giulietta Spider was also introduced around this time, dubbed the Giulietta Veloce Spider. It featured dual Weber

carburetors, hotter cams, a cold-air intake, and higher-compression pistons which combined took the horsepower numbers up to 91 from the 79 horsepower of the regular Spider. Only 2,796 Veloce Spiders were ever produced during a two-year run. It is believed that only a scant 32 Veloce Spiders were built in 1957. Sometimes we see the word 'rare' used more often than it perhaps should

be. In the case of this particular Alfa, it is not only accurate, it is absolutely defining.

This particular example, Chassis AR149502264, was delivered new to Hoffman Motor Car Company in New York on December 17th, 1957, with a Rosso exterior and a black leather interior. This Alfa’s documented history begins ten years ago when it was listed for sale by a broker who found it in a barn in Bethel, Connecticut. Despite sitting for an undetermined number of years, it was an overall solid vehicle with minimal rust.

The current owner and consignor commissioned a full, bare metal restoration of the car that was finished in September of 2022. The body was done by an Alfa specialist in Florida in the original color, while the chrome was handed off to James Abbott, Inc. and DGM Custom Polishing & Finishing of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The engine, transmission, and all corresponding mechanical aspects were fully rebuilt and reconditioned by Proper Noise in Reading, Pennsylvania. This extensive process left the car looking and running like the day it left the Alfa Romeo factory.

According to the official Certificate of Origin provided by the Alfa Romeo Historical Museum in Arese, Italy, this Veloce Spider is a numbers-matching example with the original 1,300cc four-cylinder engine still in it. It has original sand-cast Weber

carburetors numbered in succession, correct Marelli generator, Bosch starter, and the correct badges and decals affixed. Not only is this car an extremely rare example of a sporting classic Alfa, but its age makes it eligible for The Colorado Grand, California Mille, 1000 (Mille) Miglia, and other similar vintage sports car rallies that will allow this car to be enjoyed the way it was meant to be. Many of these events are extremely exclusive, with The Colorado Grand limiting attendance to sports and sports racing cars manufactured before 1960, while the California Mille is only open to pre-1958 vehicles. Upon purchase, the new owner will receive extensive documentation detailing the car’s restoration process, the Certificate of Origin, factory books and service manuals, as well as the original tool kit, jack, and spare. This 1 of just 32 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Veloce Spiders is truly special indeed. A number of factors attest to its attractiveness and desirability. First and foremost is its survival, as collectors recognized its desirability even when it was just an 'old car'. That desirability has been further endorsed since it was discovered then accurately and faithfully restored and documented by the Alfa Romeo Historico Certificate. Chassis AR149502264 promises to be exceptionally satisfying and rewarding to its next owner as it is a virtual passport to the most exclusive driving events and shows around the world.

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN: 63891

• Incredible paint and original woodwork, chrome, and stainless throughout

• Classic good looks and modern amenities

The Lincoln Motor Company was founded in 1917 by engineer Henry Leland and his son Wilfred to produce Liberty Aero engines during World War I. Leland, who had founded Cadillac in 1903, decided to re-enter the luxury car market after the war was over with a new car: the Lincoln. Introduced in 1921, it was powered by a 358-cubic-inch L-head, 60-degree V-8 engine. This

lovely 1930 Model L represents the last year of L production, as the effects of the post-WWI recession took their toll. This example retains all of the charm and style of the original, with a completely updated suspension and running gear that allows a far smoother ride and reliable highway speeds. Take a close look, and it’s obvious the care and skill used to restore

the amazing bodywork. The body seams, panel fit, and alignment are all excellent, showcasing a stellar two-tone paint finish and the restored original chrome and stainless. Visually, the big Lincoln is a period-correct piece – 100 percent classic - with the proper lamps, horns, dual side mounts, and rear trunk proudly displayed. Features such as engraved windows, brass luxury trim, and fine pinstriping are still in place, indicating the luxurious value of this high-priced auto - an astonishing $6,000 when new over 93 years ago.

Upon further inspection, you’ll start to see the modern touches, such as power bucket front seats, a modern tilt steering wheel, and all new chrome wire wheels and radial tires plus side mounts. The modern detailed burgundy upholstery is flawless, with new carpets, door panels, and the headliner all matching. The classic Lincoln “suicide” doors reveal a new split bench seat in the back, with lovely original woodgrain trim and brass accents everywhere. Up front, the classic woodgrain dash and garnish moldings are beautiful, with modern VDO gauges in place, along with air-conditioning and a modern digital sound system. A modern Lokar shifter resides on the floor as it should, the wipers have been upgraded to electric operation, and the overall fit and finish of the interior is amazing. The skill with which the modern amenities were added to this classic luxury car are both expensive and impressive.

Open the hood, and things get interesting, with a modern 4.6-liter fuel-injected Ford V-8 tucked neatly in the clean engine compartment. All of the advantages of modern motoring are at your fingertips, with Ford’s AOD automatic overdrive transmission providing easy highway cruising. Combine that with a Ford 9-inch rear axle with a 3.50 gear ratio, and this big Lincoln will hustle down the road like few 93-year-old classic luxury cars ever could. Handling was improved with an IFS front suspension with tubular A-arms and adjustable coilovers. Half-ton modern leaf springs were added in the rear, and of course, power rack and pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes are also upgraded and safe. The car starts easily, idles silently, and is fully ready to provide many years of classic motoring comfort. One look underneath will assure you that you are buying a car that is clean, well set up, and most likely will be the most fun driver in your fleet.

Impressive and luxurious good looks from the first classic age of motoring, combined with the very best conveniences our modern age has to offer, are a compelling legacy for this wonderful automobile. It is not uncommon for enthusiasts to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars and several years building custom cars. All the money has been spent and the hard work done, presenting you an opportunity to buy the finished product today.

Drauz Body No: 86210

• Rare one-year-only production 356A Convertible D garage find

• Documented by a Porsche COA, ample paperwork and California registration

Porsche’s 356A is truly the most swoon-worthy production automobile the Stuttgart firm ever created. Although the Speedster was designed as a bare-bones, road-racer for the consumer market from 1955 to 1959, the single-year 356A Convertible D captured the enticing looks and power of the Speedster but delivered the comfort and amenities the public had been hankering for. The D was only produced in 1959 before

• Numbers matching chassis and engine

• As featured on noted YouTube series 'Coffee Walk'

the model was transformed into the 356B in 1960; at a mere 1,331 manufactured, it is one of the rarest production automobiles to ever don the Porsche badge. The Porsche 356 is cloaked in mystique and celebrity. It is among the most charismatic automobiles in history with a curvaceous frame and anthropomorphized headlights that have made our hearts beat faster long before it ripped across the blacktop in Top Gun. This is the model that launched Porsche into

stardom and introduced the marque to its future as the greatest German sportscar manufacturer of all time. It garnered accolades at Le Mans and across Europe and its Speedster drove Porsche’s sales when the UK’s Jaguar, MG, and Austin-Healey were making a splash in the U.S. When Erwin Komenda’s stylized eye-catching Porsche 356A Speedster debuted in 1955, it was only offered as a stripped-down, roadgoing sportscar with a soon-to-be iconic body. The bare-bones Speedster was originally dubbed, “the bathtub Porsche,” because it actually accumulated water like the eponymous vessel. By the late ‘50s, Speedster sales were beginning to slow as customers looked elsewhere for something more weatherproof, comfortable, and accommodating in a sports car and the 1959 356A Convertible D was the answer. The Convertible D offered a higher, redesigned windshield frame that was more effective in function, roll down windows for the first time; the convertible top was improved with a fixed rear windshield and the barebones cabin was enhanced with more comfortable coupe-style seats, door panel pockets and other refinements. It was a resounding hit, but the next year the 356B would be introduced with a restyled body and myriad alterations. With only 1,331 examples manufactured, the Porsche 356A Convertible D was only offered for the 1959 model year, making it one of the rarest production model Porsches to ever roll out of Stuttgart. The 356A Convertible D boasts the inimitable look of the dazzling Speedster with all of the practical, previously unavailable amenities. Dennis Collins has a passion for Porsches and had been hunting for a 356A Convertible D for years when this garage find miraculously materialized.

Drauz body number 86210 was uncovered with its original engine, Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, the original Porsche emblem, and a treasure trove of original documents including a California pink slip and transfer slip from 1980, paperwork from its 1976 sale, an old California parking ticket, service records, registration paperwork, and old photographs. According to its factory build sheet, this car was purchased new by PFC Robert Grygiel of Oneonta, New York when he was likely stationed in Germany. Its California owner, Clarence Paul Buist III, purchased the car in 1980 as accompanying paperwork can attest. When Mr. Collins discovered this unbelievable time capsule, it had been stored for many years. The front end had been repaired by Rod Emory, a major Porsche bodywork expert, which actually adds to the caché of the car. Collins knew what he had when his Coffee Walk cameras rolled at the car’s unveiling. He quickly met the asking price, loaded the car on his hauler, and began a cosmetic restoration of the body. Documented on Coffee Walk, a coat of white, and original color code 5702 Ruby Red, paint were stripped down to the metal and the Drauz body received striking Ivory White paint in Porsche color code 5704 by McFarland Classic Restoration. The original 1600 Type 546 air-cooled, flat-four-cylinder engine and a four-speed transaxle with dual carburetors have all undergone comprehensive servicing.

This true garage find is purring beautifully and is robed in ivory over original black leatherette interior offset by sporty concise gauges and a Blaupunkt radio. Chassis 86210 is well-documented and represents a wonderful opportunity to own and enjoy a rare, one-year-only 356A Convertible D.

1960 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible

One of the 20th century's most iconic automobiles, the Volkswagen Type 1 Beetle would become the best-selling imported car in the United States and en route to achieving its status as a beloved cult classic. The brainchild of Dr. Ferdinand Porsche, the Beetle inspired great loyalty and enthusiasm based on its practicality, reliability, and affordability. The platform backbone frame was simple to build, and its rear-mounted engine left the entire volume between the wheels free of obstructions and mated directly to the transaxle, eliminating the driveshaft. The air-cooled engine further eliminated the whole water-cooling system of pumps, pipes, hoses and radiators, as well as reducing the risk of freezing in cold northern winters. The Beetle spawned a host of derivatives over the course of its life, the longest enduring being the Cabriolet. A single prototype was built pre-war but it was not until 1949 that production properly commenced, the bulk of which was entrusted to Karmann of Osnabruck whose four-seater Cabriolet

appeared soon after the two-seater Hebmuller-built version. Only Karmann's would stand the test of time, outliving the Saloon and remaining ever fashionable, an instantly recognizable motoring icon to this day and one ever popular with show business celebrities.

Unlike their steel-roofed counterparts, Beetle Convertibles were built in a separate plant by Karmann. Volkswagen convertibles manufactured prior to 1968 are among the most desirable and are renowned for build quality and luxury features such as a three-layer sound-deadening top. The 1954 update to a 1,200-cubic-centimetre, 36-horsepower powerplant resulted in a roadworthy car comfortable at U.S.-legal speeds. This charming Convertible is 1 of only 5,841 produced for the 1960 model year and is a prime example of the legendary “People's Car.” Beautifully restored, this Beetle features attractive Juniper Grey paintwork and newly mounted wide whitewall tires contrasted by a crisp white convertible top. This Beetle is a rust-free

The Bright White interior maintains added luxuries offered on the Convertible over the Sedan model, including map pockets and a height-adjustable rearview mirror. An original owner’s manual is with the car, as well as the convertible top boot cover, giving the car a clean and tailored look when the top is in the lowered position. Additionally, this car is fitted with a highly desirable Sapphire I Bendix AM radio, which was left cosmetically unrestored, adding to the character and Old-World charm of this very special, 1960 Volkswagen Convertible. Thoughtfully, a set of seatbelts have been installed for safety.

Irresistibly charming and in exceptional condition, this rare Beetle is perfect for club events, fun runs through the countryside, or just cruising around town to search for that perfect ice cream.

• 2010 body-off-the-frame restoration that presents remarkably well

• A resident of multiple prolific collections, including the Thomas F. Derro Collection

In the mid and late 1920s, Chrysler produced the fabulous Imperial line that was wildly popular and ultra-luxurious. The “L” line in 1929 and 1930 would be replaced by the CG in 1931 and the CL for 1932 and 1933. These were eight-cylinder powered cars that were among the most attractive Chryslers ever built. One of the stars of the Chrysler line in 1931 was the CG Imperial by LeBaron. A product of the joint efforts of Raymond Dietrich and Thomas

Hibbard, the LeBaron-bodied cars were built upon a remarkable 145-inch wheelbase allowing ample room for the duo designers to craft art on wheels with superb proportions. Offering wonderful eye appeal, the Imperials are arguably one of the most beautiful Chryslers ever built, thanks to their distinctive and smooth flowing curves that are seen throughout the entirety of the body. Along with their beautiful looks, the Chrysler CG Imperials came

equipped with very powerful and reliable motors. Referred to as “Red-Head” engines, as the tops are painted a distinct red, this CG Imperial sports a 384-cubic-inch eight-cylinder engine that produces an impressive 125 horsepower, offering its owner more than enough power to satisfy when on the road. Paired with a four-speed manual transmission, Chrysler’s “floating power” and a well-tuned suspension, they offered refined driving at the time of arrival in the ‘30s and present as remarkable classic car touring vehicles today. While much of the early history of this CG Imperial is unknown, it is believed that this Chrysler started life as a closed-body car and then was carefully and accurately converted to its current and much more desirable roadster body some 70 years ago. In the 1980s, it became a part of the late Thomas F. Derro Collection, which was once regarded as one of the greatest American automobile collections in the Northeast. From there, this Imperial joined another major pre-war automobile collection, where it received its first body-off-the-frame restoration in 2005. The current owner would take ownership in 2007, with this Imperial having already garnered a CCCA National First Prize, badge number 0903, which is proudly displayed on the body. A few years after taking ownership, he would commission another restoration in 2010, refreshing the paint

from top to bottom, applying a new convertible top with a matching boot cover and side curtains, and giving attention to any and all details. Once this was finished, this Imperial added quite a few more awards to its resume, like an AACA Grand National First Prize, AACA Diamond Jubilee Award, AACA Walter P. Chrysler Award, multiple Best of Class awards, and many other awards. This Chrysler also appeared in the 2012 AACA national calendar for the month of November.

The lavish two-tone color scheme presents very well and combines with the Autumn Leaf interior and tan Haartz top to portray the best of the classic era. Well-equipped, this automobile comes with dual side-mounted spares with top-mount mirrors, twin front-mounted Pilot Ray driving lights, a colormatched trunk rack, and a rare grille-mounted stone guard where it wears some of its AACA badges proudly.

This 1931 Chrysler CG Imperial is one of the best-driving cars of the grand era and remains a wonderful roadgoing automobile today. Here is your chance to acquire a distinctive and collectible automobile that will serve to provide enjoyment, whether on display or on the road, for years to come. The Imperial Roadster is often regarded as one of the best-looking open cars of the period; one look at this example and we’re sure you will agree.

1982 Buick Regal Grand National Coupe 477

This lot is available for online bidding at WorldwideAuctioneers.com

VIN:

1G4AK4739CH219496

• Original well-preserved car with 4,460 miles from new

• First year of Grand National production

• Equipped with rare 3.8L Turbo V-6 engine

• Ordered new by top GM Engineer

In the early 1980s, Buick was a major player on the NASCAR circuit and, in 1981 with 20 victories under their belt, it was time to celebrate. At the 1982 Daytona 500 in February, Buick debuted the first Regal-based Grand National where it was presented more as an upscale performance inspired appearance package rather than a re-birth of a factory muscle car. Featuring a two-tone paint

• Only three owners from new

• Original build sheet, window sticker and factory documentation

scheme of Dark Charcoal Gray upper body panels and roof plus lower body panels combine the center of the body in Light SilverGray Firemist detail with red pinstriping. Based on the Regal T-Type coupe and riding on special turbine style alloy rims, steel-belted radial “Wide-Oval Billboard” tires, a front air dam combined with a rear deck spoiler plus a console mounted shift lever, special

Lear-Sigler bucket seats, and unique badging. The standard engine for those first Grand Nationals was the pedestrian 4.1-liter V-6 rated at 125 HP. Only 215 were produced which is the lowest production figure for any of the Grand Nationals. However, a very few performance-minded and very savvy buyers knew that they could order the Regal T-Type with the much more potent turbocharged 3.8-liter V-6, and it is estimated that no more than 10 to 15 examples were produced with this highly desirable option. Over 20 regular production options were part of the Grand National package which, in addition to the some of the items mentioned above, also included Soft-Ray tinted glass, halogen headlights, tilt steering wheel, the Grand Sport “F41” suspension, left and right-side remote sport mirrors, AM/FM-cassette radio, power windows and numerous other convenience items. Driver comfort was not overlooked, and those special Lear-Sigler bucket seats featured wing cushion and wing-back adjustment as well as lumbar and thigh support adjustments. The seats were covered in gray “Brandon” cloth with black vinyl pads and inserts, with each of the four seats adorned with a special “Molly” V-6 embroidered emblem and, for controlling the car with ease, a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Buick encouraged its dealers to use the Grand National models as traffic builders and to conduct promotions with personal appearances by Buick drivers such as Darrell Waltrip, Junior Johnson, and Harry Gant. Buick had not only cleaned up on the NASCAR ovals, but for the 1981 model year they had posted an 8.5 percent gain in market share, so the boys from Flint, Michigan were mighty proud of their records.

One of those savvy buyers was Bryan Smith, who at the time was part of GM’s engineering team. He had the wherewithal to know exactly which boxes

to check. In February 1982, Smith took delivery of this very special coupe at Bill Cook Buick in Farmington Hills, Michigan. Realizing the possible historic value of this car, maybe with a bit of insight that future Grand Nationals would become highly sought after, Smith drove the car only on rare occasions, keeping it in like-new preserved condition. By September 1987, Smith had placed a total of just 2,175 miles on the car when it was sold to Larry Braum, another Buick enthusiast where it was also treated with kid gloves and rarely driven except for car shows and exhibition. In 2006, our consignor acquired this historic and rare early production Grand National from Larry Braum and immediately had it stored in a specially constructed concealed garage facility that was attached to his home, secured and climate controlled. Exercised on rare occasions, at the time of our inspection the odometer showed just 4,460 miles. Showing the care taken in preserving this car from new, the original exterior finish is clean and just as it was new, including the somewhat fragile rear quarter “BUICK” decals. Virtually no wear or tear can be seen on the driver’s seat and the rest of the car appears like it has never been sat in.

The original alloy wheels are fitted with vintage BFGoodrich T/A radials and under the hood appears to be untouched with all the original decals and stickers well-preserved. With the car comes documents such as the original window price label, an original build sheet, factory Grand National specifications sheets, warranty pamphlets and more. Believed to be one of the earliest Grand Nationals produced and verified to be one of very few fitted with the legendary 3.8-liter Turbo V-6, combined with its superb condition, will make the new owner a champion in the world of low production American performance cars.
