Looking at the photo of the man with the tie, in the white shirt and standing in front of this beautiful smoke silver 1988 560 SL, he appears to have a contented look on his face. Flipping the photo over, I see it's dated July 13th 1996, back in a time where I had to drop off the film at the photo shop to be developed. I took this photo in front of the Wilmington, Delaware Mercedes-Benz ,Porsche and Audi dealership, where I work for 12 years as a sales representative.Ron loved cars and he took good care of all his cars and garage kept his classics. The original odometer statement shows I delivered it with 43,342 miles. Now, only showing 51,565 miles. The burgundy leather interior only shows slight wear on the drivers booster. Mercedes was not know back then for good systems, the original Becker radio with cassette works fine. The exterior original paint is flawless. Hardtop included as in all Sl's. The soft brown top is in excellent condition. What a magnificent example of a true classic that runs beautifully. We welcome trades and can arrange financing.

Wow what fun. Where can you find something like this with such low miles in this condition? 5 Speed manual transmission with removable sunroof and power Windows- luggage cover. Don't miss the opportunity to own a Porsche for under $10,000.Designed by Harm Lagaay and produced in Neckarsulm, Germany- the 944 was built by Porsche from 1982 to 1991. Its predecessor ,the 924, was a joint venture between Porsche and Volkswagen. But after some controversy the car evolved into the 944 in 1982 . Over 163,000 944s were produced, one of the most successful Porsche's built. The car had nearly even front to rear weight distribution (50.7% front/49.3% rear) thanks to the rear transaxle/rear wheel drive balancing the front engine . The factory-claimed 0-60mph time of less than 9 seconds and a top speed of 130mph at a 147 hsp. In mid-1985, the 944 underwent its first significant changes. These included: a new dash and door panels, embedded radio antenna, upgraded alternator (from 90 amp to 115 amp), increased oil sump capacity, new front and rear cast alloy control arms and semi-trailing arms, larger fuel tank, optional heated and powered seats, Porsche HiFi sound system, and revisions in the mounting of the transaxle to reduce noise and vibration. The early 944s were upgraded to new "phone dial" style wheels from the cookie cutter Fuchs. For the 1987 model year, the 944 Motronic DME was updated, and newly incorporated anti-lock braking ABS and airbags. We welcome trades and can recommend financing .

The 1986 911 could be described as being more advanced than the early 911s without their premium price. "I'm convinced the G series 3.2 Carreras are the best balance between modern comfort and a classic Porsche driving experience. The 3.2 is the last true "driver's" car that Porsche made before power steering came into play. If I ever buy another 911 this is the era I would buy." This exceptional 1986 Porsche Carrera 911 Targa classic and collectable air-cooled 3.2-litre horizontally opposed flat 6 cylinder rear mounted engine. Only 72,950 miles in Guards Red with Black Leather interior is being offered at $48900. The original paint on this family owned since 1995 classic, is in showroom condition with no rust. The 915 transmission was carried over from the SC series for the first three model years with a MSRP at $32,000. The engine produces 200 horsepower and will move the Carrera from 0 to 60 mph in about 5.5 seconds. Standard equipment included leather upholstery, Upgraded system to R134A Air Conditioning, power windows, and Original Phone Dial15-inch alloys. (U.S. dealers had the preference of ordering this vintage with the Fuchs.) Options are cruise control, and an original Blaupunkt AM/FM/cassette radio. A major change for the 1986 911 was an improved timing chain tensioner, which had been an issue on previous models. In 1986, minor changes crept into the standard Carrera, including lowered front seats to increase head room. Torque was 185 ft-lb. The clutch is mechanical and has a Getrag five-speed , 6-cyl. 3165cc/200hp Bosch Motronic FI Curb Weight: 2606 lbs. Vehicle Length: 168.9 in. Wheel Base: 89.4 in.

1985 BMW K100R5 "What are we going to do?", said the engineers at the BMW motorcycle division. The year was 1979 and sales and market share of the R100S were dropping dramatically. Blame it on Honda - the introduction of the CB750-4 in 1969 created a revolution in the motorcycle world that is still felt today. This affordable bike featured a vertical four cylinder, overhead valve engine that was smooth, powerful, and reliable. Yes indeed, the Japanese bikes had grown up. The "boxer twin" engine design that had powered the BMW line for many years became instantly obsolete. Instead of relying on customer loyalty to an outdated engine design (sorry Harley fans), BMW decided to compete in this new era focused on power, speed, and handling. What emerged in 1983 was a liquid cooled, horizontal, overhead valve, four cylinder powerplant that became known affectionately as the "Flying Brick". At 984 cc and 90 horsepower, it was to date the largest displacement and most powerful motor BMW had ever produced yet it still retained the smoothness and quality of manufacturing that the brand was famous for. Loyalists were slow to embrace this new direction that BMW was taking, but sales soon soared and the K100 line remains one of the most popular bikes BMW ever made. An added bonus was that this bike proved to be very reliable and required far less "tinkering" than the older bikes. The K100LT was a comfortable touring model capable of long range, problem free excursions. The Ki line that followed in 1993 carried on the legacy of quality engineering and manufacturing that BMW is known for to this day. At Bavarian Motorsport, we are offering a rare find - a 1985 K100RS with only 4,019 miles. The sport fairing, fuel tank, and body panels are finished in Madison Silver Metallic and an optional tank bag is included. Please contact Suzanne 610-444-2222 We welcome car trades!
This Clean Carfax 1984 Alfa Romeo Spider is a two-seater, front engine, rear wheel - drive roadster with only 45,400 miles showing on the odometer. This driver appears to be rust free with documentation that the clutch was replaced less than 7000 miles ago. It has a 5-Speed manual transmission ( In Alfa typical fashion, second gear is a little tricky) and is Alfa Red with an interior of Saddle Italian Leather and a Black Canvas Convertible Top. Spare tire, jack and current service records are among the items included in the sale. Mechanically it is 126 hsp with its 2.0L (1,962cc) DOHC 2 valves ( VVT) per cylinder 4 -cylinder engine. The USA models retained the Bosch L-Jetronic FI. This marvelous sports car has front and rear coil springs and anti-sway bars. The Alfa Romeo was faster than the BMW E30 318 I and a lot more stylist. The Alfa Romeos appearance in the 1967 film, THE GRADUATE, starring Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft contributed to its iconic mystique. An older woman seduces her daughters younger boyfriend. In an attempt to get his girlfriend back, he speeds in the Alfa Romeo .The car runs out of gas a short distance from the church where his girlfriend is about to marry another suitor. The Alfa Romeo Badge has some conflicting discussion about its origins. Look closely, you will see a serpent eating a man? A child? The most interesting legend states that in Lake Gerundo, very near Milan, an enormous snake lived and terrorized the inhabitants of the city by attacking and eating the children and polluting the water with its venom. In a heroic effort, Ottone Visconti, the founder of the family, slayed the snake and adorned his coat of arms with its likeness as a symbol of triumph.While this is a highly unlikely legend, not to mention a grim one, it serves to add to the aura around one of the world's most storied and historic brands. A little imagination never hurt anyone - unless, of course, you happened to be a child during the era of terror from the giant snake. Credited to Wikipedia. Manufactured from 1966 to 1994, the Spider remained in production for almost 30 years. The Italian firm of Pininfarina designed and manufactured the body, as well as final assembly. This Third generation/ Series 3 Spider was introduced in 1982 and was the last project in which founder Battista Pinifarina was involved. The Spider was first launched at the 36th Geneva Motor Show in March 1966The Series 3 Spider was previewed in North America for the 1982 model year with the introduction of 2.0 liter Bosch electric FI to replace the mechanical injection. In 1983, black rubber front and rear bumpers, a front bumper incorporating the grille, a small soft rubber spoiler added to the rear. The car is being sold as is, runs beautifully, except for Alfa crunch into 2nd gear which may be part of the character of this iconic sports car. Priced to sell quickly at $14,500.oo.

1979 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce is always difficult to price a special car like this-a 1979 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce. I'm looking at comparables from 2014 with nothing sold since 2018! You'd think with Covid-19 the price of these collectible classics would be plummeting! But that is not the case and as one of my collector commented This is a buyers market. But finding a rare car in this condition means the sellers have the upper hand. As an advisor to my sellers, I state (be ever so emotional) that this car will never be built again. It can be modified to an electric maybe. But it will never be quite like this. I get so excited when a young person (in my case anyone under 40) gets excited about a car as complicatedly simple as this. Because of my lack of funds in college, Italian cars were unthinkable. See advice below for Italian car owners. But it doesn't mean that I was always turning my head when something red and exotic flashed by. My generation will be among the last to have grown- up with the thrill, not just of driving free from adult repression and cell phone ringing, but just that pure sense of joy. That special joy that happens when you are out on the open road with a very cool car with the top down and the wind in your hair. It didn't matter that it was only 35 degrees out or snow was coming down. It was the challenge! Oh yestry driving north Philly without a clutch or wipers in a monsoon on Route 80 in NJ. This generation will never know what it is like! Rescue for them is only a cell phone button away. This 2 door- 2 seater convertible does not appear to have the problematic rust see ugly photos. The engine was a 4-cyl. 1962cc/111hp Spica Mechanical Fuel Injection. the standard Spider Veloce model, with a 2.0L (1,962 cc) DOHC 2 valves ( VVT) per cylinder 4 -cylinder engine made of Aluminum Alloy. This red with black interior has 74,058 miles on the odometer with a 4 speed manual transmission with the ubiquitous grind in each gear. The optional hardtop is in excellent condition. This car needs a tune-up and minor repairs see LAW #2 below. But most of all this car needs someone to love the challenge of bringing it back to its original course. History of the 1970-1982 Alfa Romeo Spider The 1950s vintage Alfa Romeo Giulietta and Giulia series of coupes and convertibles seemed like they could conceivably go on forever. Even as late as 1965, Road & Track was still singing the praises of the 1600cc Giulia Spider Veloce. Nevertheless, for the 1966 model year, Alfa began selling its replacement, named the Duetto, via a contest that Alfa ran with the Italian public. It was the last project in which Batista Pininfarina was personally involved. And while widely viewed as classic design today, it was met with some controversy when new. Power was initially from the familiar Alfa 1600cc twin-cam engine that powered the last Giulias. Emission laws affected Alfa particularly hard and 1968 was a lost year in the U.S. The car returned for 1969 with a 1750cc engine and SPICA mechanical fuel injection. 1970 was another lost year and 1971 saw the car return with its lovely boat tail chopped off. The so-called Kamm-tail spider continued on basically unchanged (save for bigger bumpers and a 250cc boost in displacement) until 1982 when electronic injection was introduced and in 1983 styling was freshened slightly. Interior changes were about it until 1991 when the final (and quite successful) cleanup of the design took place prior to its discontinuation in 1994. All Spiders are brisk performers with sub-10 second 0-60 times and stellar convertible tops. Parts are readily available and while they are more complex and don't tolerate fools with tools as readily as an MGB, they are more rewarding to drive. Hagerty The Alfa Romeo Badge has some conflicting discussion about its origins. Look closely, you will see a serpent eating a man? A child?

It feels like it is on rails! I exclaimed to Jose, Bavarian Motorsport's master technician, as we drove down the winding roads of Kennett Square, Pennsylvania countryside. This 1978 Ferrari 308 GTS in our showroom is in excellent condition. It is a driver with everything working as it should at 85,222 miles. Watch the video on YouTube to feel this experience. https://youtu.be/CUT93TzNlFo?si=rfYG0QPs6JLmSwyy Anthracite Gray with Black leather interior and Black targa top, the GTS is rated at 255 hp with 217 lb-ft of torque through a five-speed manual transmission. It's a H-patterned transmission with reverse straight forward and first straight back. Rated at 0-60 mph in 7.3 seconds, with a top speed of 159 mph. Original MSRP was $117,400. Stated Miles Per Gallon: 14/23 mpg Observed MPG 16/21 mpg Curb Weight: 3252 lbs. Lay out Mid-Engine/ Rear Wheel Drive. The 308GTS was the last carbureted Pininfarina designed by Leonardo Fioravantia. Leonardo was also noted for designing the Berlinetta Boxer, Dino and Daytona. There is a plaque on the side of the car that designates it as such. The current owner purchased in 1982 privately in Beverly Hills, California. Books and paperwork indicate services were completed in Beverly Hills, California by the previous owner. The owner moved east and had services at Algar Ferrari in Rosemont, PA as well as recent services at Scuderia Performante. 7/8/2021 Scuderia Performante replaced the steering rack and bushings and upgraded the AC. The timing belt service was completed at 84,519 along with a new alternator and oil and filter. The seller had it repainted by Karosserie in Wayne, Pennsylvania approximately 30 years ago. The first Ferrari road car to be emblazoned with the Cavallino Rampante Italian Prancing Horse was the 1947 Ferrari 125 S. A black prancing horse was used by World War I Italian pilot Francesco Baracca on the fuselage of his plane. He recorded 34 kills before being killed in 1918, becoming a national hero. In 1923, Enzo Ferrari met the mother and father of Baracca. Baraccas mother told Ferrari to paint the prancing horse on his cars as it would give him good luck. Ferrari did so and added the splash of yellow, the color of his birthplace of Modena. This particular Ferrari is a beautiful example of what this iconic sports car epitomizes. Offered in the sale is the original tool kit, Ferrari seat covers, books, service binder and targa top cover. We welcome trades and can arrange financing.

See this car drive on the YouTube link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ABNNXp5G6k Driving this 1976 TR6 is like a blast from the past. But my clique were members of the MGB club. I always wanted a Triumph or the Austin Healey. They always seemed out-of-reach, whether it was the Spitfire or the TR6. Yes, I became of age in the 70s and what incredible cars we had to drive back then. Between the Porsches, the Fiats,the Alphas, the English cars attracted us baby boomers. Their Non Teutonic and just plain fun factor gave myself and my peers the incredible opportunity of really driving! We were never being distracted by text messages, phone messages ,navigation gibberish, satellite radio and cup holders. No, all we could do, was drive. Experience driving. Experience shifting into gear and to feel the clutch, to move from 1st gear, to 2nd gear then to 3rd ...or not. To really feel the handling how these British cars hug the road as your ass is practically dragging on it! Serial number CF55486UO- The brakes feel good- front disc rear drums .You really got to know your car, especially the brakes . Back then, one needed to how to know to pulse the brakes if you had to come to a hard stop... there was no such thing as ABS . Or you may need to downshift with that transmission if you didn't have any brakes LOL. So taking this 1976 Inca yellow , (one of the 3 yellows made that year for the TR6), was a trip back to my car roots. The car was repainted in 2010 its original color as the code 94 states on the commission plate on the driver's door . The black interior vinyl is in very good condition, no rips or tears. The manual 4-speed transmission has the optional overdrive which I was too chicken to try out . This car shifts the way you imagined it should shift. The clutch feels great, the handling is responsive, though there is no power steering. You can get a upper arm work-out in the parking lot . Because the carbs were recently adjusted ,this car just purrs along (please watch the video). A compression test yields it's in good condition for engine #CF45895UE showing only 32,468 miles.

This is a Leyland Australian Mini Moke, manufactured in 1973, RHD (Right Hand Drive) with a 0-door soft-top body 4 seater . It's FWD (front-wheel drive) with left- hand manual 4-speed transmission. The optional black cloth canopy has plastic side windows, and is held up by a roll cage, that can easily be removed when not needed. The windscreen can easily be unbolted and removed if not needed. There is rust on this vehicle and the paint is peeling on sections of the floor. It has the original ID plate in and the Australian window sticker shows it was a blue two-seater before modifications in 1993 to a 4 seater. Gasoline engine with displacement: 1097 cm3 / 67 cui, 50 hp / 51 PS ( SAE ), torque: 81 Nm / 60 lb-ft characteristic dimensions: outside length: 3239 mm / 127.5 in, wheelbase: 2096 mm / 82.5 in reference weights: base curb weight: 620 kg / 1367 lbs, gross weight GVWR: 907 kg / 2000 lbs top speed: 113 km/h (70 mph) (declared by factory); accelerations: 0- 60 mph 18 s; 0- 100 km/h 21.7 s (simulation automobile-catalog.com); 1/4 mile drag time (402 m) 20.4 s (simulation automobile-catalog.com) The Mini Moke is a vehicle based on the Mini. The name comes from "Mini"the car with which the Moke shares many partsand "Moke", which is an archaic dialect term for donkey. The Moke has been marketed under various names including Austin Mini Moke, Morris Mini Moke and Leyland Moke. The initial design was a prototype for a light military vehicle in the style of the American Jeep, but its small wheels and low ground clearance made it impractical as an off-road vehicle. The Moke would go on to attract attention as a cult vehicle as a result of the unprecedented success of the Mini and through exposure in the popular television series: The Prisoner. Of the 14,500 Mokes sold, only about a tenth of them stayed in Britain, yet strong demand remained overseas. It was subsequently offered in a civilian version as a low-cost, easily maintained utility vehicle. The Moke finally achieved success as a beach buggy
I purchased this classic 1972 Mercedes Benz 280SE 4.5 from Bavarian Motorsport on April 29th 2017 and have immensely enjoyed it for the last several years before consigning it here on December 8th, 2022. The vehicle has a wonderful provenance, originating with its purchase from Mercedes Benz of Hollywood on May 4th, 1972. The original owner was a UCLA professor and prominent medical doctor who meticulously chronicled every conceivable aspect of the car, from its original specifications, European delivery logistics, to years of dedicated care and exacting maintenance. The preserved documentation begins with an intimate story of a seemingly bygone era of truly exceptional service and a dialogue between the dealer in Hollywood, Mercedes Benz in Germany and all the logistic teams in between who made his European delivery experience so rewarding and memorable. The personal accounts are further amplified by his many handwritten notes, including hotel arrangements in Frankfurt and travel brochures from the Mercedes Benz factory in Stuttgart highlighting their first-class accommodations and concierge services. A comprehensive (60 plus page), sequentially ordered binder will accompany the sale of the vehicle, including all the above correspondences, documentation, and maintenance receipts dating back to September 26th, 1972. As the second owner of the vehicle, I have striven to honor the legacy of the former owner and his efforts to preserve the integrity of the car over his many years of ownership. As a high-end modern furniture, art and lighting dealer (online at V4 Design Specialists), I have always had an appreciation for superb craftsmanship, great aesthetics and exceptional industrial design. To me, this 280SE Mercedes hits the mark in every way. From its big, prominent chrome grill to its gleaming wrap around front and rear bumpers, the car exudes elegance, solidity and a sense of relaxed refinement that is unmatched in our current era of mass produced automobiles. The driving experience is equally pleasurable and rewarding. When you get behind the wheel of the big Mercedes all the clatter and stress of the outside world seems to fade away as you are transported back in time-effortlessly gliding down the roadway. The car has been driven 11,818 miles since it was purchased in 2017 with mechanical refurbishment and maintenance costs totaling $12,943 over the term of ownership and it presents extremely well in person.Please contact Suzanne for an appointment or a Zoom showing.

Mercedes Benz 1971 280SL ?Pagoda? Offered for sale- a stunning, clean, mechanically sound, matching numbers and very rare -only 520 exported to the US -1971 Mercedes Benz 280SL -?Pagoda?. In 1963 Mercedes introduced the W113 chassis on which an all-new SL was built. The new SL line was a complete departure from the 190SL (W121) and a different car compared to the 300SL (W198). The body was designed by Paul Braq and was offered with both a soft top and, as an option, a removable hard top. The design of the hardtop incorporates a concave roof shape and when viewed from the front resembles a Japanese Pagoda. Thus Pagoda became the adopted name for the series of three generations ? 230SL, 250SL and 280 SL. Production on the W113 ended in the spring of 1971, eight years after its introduction, with the new R107 chassis. Production of the 280SL started in 1967. A total of 23,885 cars were produced during 1967-1971 and 12,927 were destined for the US. In 1971, according to MB records, only 830 of the 280SL were built before switching over to the R107 chassis- making this a rare car. Information obtained from www.mercedes-benz.com/classic-center. In 1968 the 280SL got an engine upgrade to a bored/stroked 2.8 liter version of the Bosh-injected inline six. The majority of production was with the four- speed automatic transmission. In the time of the W113 production, Mercedes did not offer factory installed air-conditioning in Germany. But there was demand for it in the US and it became a dealer installed option. For the 280SL the approved a/c was a unit mounted under the dashboard with the brand name of ?FrigiKing?. It was made in the US by Artic Air. This 1971 280SL is a one family owner car; it comes with two tops (soft and hard) and a stand for the hard top. It was restored in 1997. The body was repainted to the Mercedes Dark Olive Green body color. The black soft top and black interior were also restored as was the green hard top. Included are the car /roof covers and stand.

1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe You learn in art class that the color black is the absence of light or color. In the case of this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette, Black IS the color! (900) Tuxedo Black outside and (ZQ4) black vinyl inside, a color combination that had less than 1000 produced the year 1969. This is 4 wheels of intimidation and an iconic classic sports car. Back in 1969, I was a child living on the east side of Detroit a few blocks from the Detroit River. I wasn't afraid of the sound of the race boats racing around Belle Isle, nor was I afraid of the firework display on the 4th of July at Cobo Hall. But I was definitely fearful of the sound of the rumble of the muscle cars coming down the street. It was a game my sister and I used to play. We'd hear that rumble from a few blocks away, freeze in our tracks,and as this 4 wheeled monster got close, we'd race to the back of the house! (a former bootleggers house I might add) We would hide, because if that car saw you( it had eyes), you would turn to stone or some other imaginary fearful thing we've dreamed up. I can honestly say I never saw the muscle cars coming in front of the house, because I was hiding in the back of the house from them. So how cool is it now that I get to represent this wonderful pristine Corvette.This 1969 Corvette Stingray Coupe is not a big block. Its a healthy 350cu and 300hp L48 V8 Technical Stuff- HP@ RPM 300 @ 4800, Torque @ RPM380 @ 3200, Compression Ratio 10.25:1,Bore & Stroke 4.00 x 3.48, Cylinder Block-Cast Iron,Main Bearings 5 Valve Lifters-Hydraulic Carburetion-4bbl RochesterIntake Manifold-Cast Alloy IronOil Capacity- 5qts w/filter,Exhaust-Dual 2.0". Options - Air Conditioning was a $428 option. This was upgraded to 134A -But it is not working. Turbo Hydra-Matic Automatic Transmission and Power Steering are options. Sale also includes 4 still in the wrapper (except one serving as the spare) wheels and tires. The Independent rear suspension, different from a lot of muscle cars of the day and Wishbone suspension is all very clean in this 69. There is no rust to be seen on this car. The 4-wheel disc brakes on it are a large 10 inch rotors. My husband had a 1971 Corvette convertible, a very similar car to this one. And as is in this car, the dual exhaust goes right through the crossmember frame. Whether you're a passenger or the driver you get a lot of heat off of that. The small block is less heat, but he also liked the small block for its weight distribution between the front and the rear. When a car is well-balanced such as this car was back in 1969(or in 1971 in my husband's case) it just makes it a much more fun to drive. The car is much more manageable and much better handling. Plus, it is much easier to work on than the big-block and not as crammed in the engine compartment. A National Corvette Restoration Society (NCRS) judge told the current owner-"Buy this car" upon looking at it. The current owner has owned it for 14 years . It was restored prior to his ownership in North Carolina. He has been meticulous on maintenance and only a job transfer makes this car available. Outside of the age, there are only a couple things . The radio antennae is in the trunk and the brand new washer bag needs to be installed.It has an aftermarket Offenhauser performance intake manifold for extra power. There is a ding in the front hood where some one forgot to screw in the wing nut on the carburetor and shut the hood on it. It appears all the vacuum operated stuff works- turn signals- wiper door opens. Corvette took vacuum operation off the carburetor to operate the vents for heat, and headlights and the washer wiper door. 1969 was the only year that the rear window comes out. Remove the T-tops and you practically have a convertible! We welcome trades and can arrange financing. This magnificient car can be viewed by appointment.

Unfortunately, a deer encounter has caused the price decrease. Ran beautifully for the wedding. SOLD AS IS. Nostradamus said in 1548. "From Albion's shore shall come a marvelous conveyance, a carriage silincieux bearing the arms of Rolles De Roi." Albion (Ancient Greek) is the oldest known name of the island of Great Britain and from its shores come this beautiful Rolls Royce - hand built. The chrome Hood figurine-Spirit of Ecstasy- derived from the Grande Corniche, the touring road high above the Mediterranean between Nice and Monte Carlo leads this stunning chrome grille made entirely by hand and eye - no measuring instruments are used. Garnet Red with Cream Connolly Leather, this Silver Shadow's unibody construction is powered by an engine that is completely hand built even today. Only 77,850 miles are on the 6,750-cc, Bosch fuel-injected OHV V-8 172 hp. The self-leveling suspension was based on the Citroen hydraulic system and the Silver Shadow employed power disc brakes. Reminding me of the 1970 Chevelle SS 454 LS6 we also have for sale, the Shadow GM-sourced Turbohydramatic 400 Automatic Transmission gearbox, (except on pre-1970 RHD models), which used the same 4-speed automatic gearbox as the Silver Cloud (also sourced from General Motors). The Silver Shadow was produced between 1965 1977. Only 16,717 examples of the 1969 Silver Shadow were produced. Rolls Royce Silver Shadow- Silence is Golden. The transcript on the 1969 flyer from Rolls Royce says it all! A Rolls-Royce Never Becomes a Used Car. It becomes a Classic. In a Rolls-Royce you'll enjoy one of the great satisfactions left in a world of mediocrity and mass production. You'll be the owner of a rare automobile which ages like the great Bordeaux wines, becoming with proper care even more valuable than on the day you bought it. And as you glide through mundane traffic to your special destination, you will be discreetly but firmly stating your position in the world. Is a Rolls-Royce different or merely expensive? Cars perhaps do not have philosophies, but their manufacturers do. We welcome trades and can arrange financing.

1969 Jaguar E-Type Series II OTS Roadster In reading the large binder with all the original paperwork on this stunning E-Type Series II Jaguar, I can't help but be filled with emotion when I read the note dated May 11th, 1988. I, John J. DiNenna, relinquish the ownership to Fred Wright for this 1969 XKE Jaguar. There's no price on it....there's no amount of money of what it was sold for or how long it took for them to come to an agreement on this vehicle (6 months)! Now years later- it's been weeks and the seller and I have gone back and forth with what to sell this most beautiful car I've ever seen! How do you put a price on a car where with those words- I relinquish my car, as if to give up your soul. No wonder the owner and I have struggled with a price, because, really, this car is priceless! A CAR IS ONLY ORIGINAL ONCE the owner told me of this example of one of the most seductively beautiful cars ever built. Pale Primrose with a black leather interior and black convertible top( black cover)1969 Jaguar E Type Series II LHD 2 seater. This E-Type Jaguar OTS is a time capsule/survivor. The body is straight and no evidence of rust having been inside a garage all its life. The chrome is overall in good condition. Panel fit is very good and chrome wire wheels with period correct narrow whitewall radials. The black interior is in very good condition. Minimal work in upkeep and repair on this car during 28 years of ownership by the current owner. Based on information that the original/previous owner provided- it is not evident that this car has had any major work done on it anywhere of any kind! The only body work is on the left rocker panel. It was re-sprayed in the battery area due to battery acid dripping down the rocker. Lead filled seam between rocker and rear wing/quarter panel are all part of standard 1960's production of these cars by Jaguar Motorcars. You would never see this in a fully restored or concourse car -sometimes over improved . In this case ,the factory did it all, because this car is the benchmark from which a car should be eva

1988 Rotus 8 Certificate of Origin states it is a Replica of a 1967 Lotus Super Seven America Model - The Buick V8 engine has seized , but it should be relativity easy to drop another V8 in it and have fun at say the Coatesville Grand Prix. The call came a few months ago and we met out in the middle lands of Delaware and sitting behind a simple ranch was the open shed with the back of peeking out. Coated with dust and spider webs, I immediately started looking for the engine numbers. My husband,new to my business but old to the car world, pointed out it was a GM Product with a Buick engine and the numbers were always int the same place,in front of the block under the carburetor on a flat plane written 3/1569885 and then upside down HI299179 . I should know all about the Offenhauser valve cover after having attended the Indy 500 last year and viewed the Offy engines at the Indy museum. This large V8 has 2 values per cylinder with the Highrise Intake manifold, Edelbrock Air cleaner and Carter AFB 4 barrell carburettor might yield about 215 hsp! But unfortunately, sitting for so long the engine is not running. The previous owner custom built this with Chris Custer of Frederick MD. Chris a Toyota Dealership Principal, built his idea of a perfected Lotus Super Seven out of spare Toyota parts. Letters from Chris Custer state this was the first retail V8 sold as most of the approximately 70 built were rotary engines?

This beautiful "Fintail"(German Heckflosse)1965 Mercedes Benz 190c Sedan, has the original Bill of Sale- Dated November 20, 1964 and was sold to a Stanley Gzaplicki from Ivyland, Pennsylvania. The dealership was KEENAN MOTORS of Philadelphia PA. VIN #11001012095667. The Dark Blue ( Special- 332) Paint appears to be original with only minor rust. The Beige interior (2403) is MB Tex Leather (Full Fluted) with 99,323 miles on the odometer. The original engine, with matching numbers, still runs smoothly and recently went thru State inspection with clear title. The 190 c is a 4 cylinder engine with an overhead camshaft of 90 HP. . Fintail is a nickname given to this type of Mercedes, because of its two rear chrome highlighted fins. American cars in the early 60's were often designed with huge fins, much larger than the German Heckflosse! This is not an official name by Mercedes-Benz. Heckflosse German translation is Fintail, 'Heck' means 'tail' and 'flosse' means 'fin'. The chrome over the entire car is in excellent condition. The W110 was Mercedes Benz's entry level line of midsize autos in the mid-1960s and was introduced in April, 1961. The W110 were among the first series of Mercedes cars to be extensively crash tested for occupant safety. Which explains on the Bill of Sale the optional 2 Front Seat Belts! The 190c was Mercedes-Benz's line of less-expensive four-cylinder sedans. The options such as fixed-back seats and bakelite trim on the dashboard (as opposed to timber in the W111 models). This made them extremely popular with taxi drivers. Production of the 190Dc exceeded that of the petrol-engined 190c by nearly 100,000 units. Also listed is the Automatic Transmission, Front Bumper Guards, W/S W Tires, Power Brakes and Anti Freeze. The Price of the car in 1964 was $4,496.88. Today... only $10,000 more- not bad for inflation on a car that will outlive most of us. June 2016 this car was advertised for sale - Good condition. Drives/runs well and transmission shifts well.

1965 PORSCHE 356 1600C CABRIOLET w/HARDTOP I would like to claim credit for finding this rare Porsche- but in reality it found me. ?Oh Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz, my friends all have Porsches, I must make amends? my band mate Michelle sang lustily at one of our gigs. It was surprising to the car- world when Janis Jopins' HISTORY OF THE WORLD 1964 356C Cab sold for $1.7 million this past December. But this is a 1965 356C with the original very rare removable hardtop and BLAPUNKT radio! 1965 was the last year Porsche made the 356 named either for its sequential design production number or named for the office in Gmund. But surprising having been introduced in 1948 this car would be the very first Porsche bearing the Porsche name body designed by Erwin Kommenda. Louise Piech-Dr. Ferdinan Porsche's daughter and Ferry Porsche were to carry the design ideas to their father at the Austrian prison where he landed near the end of WWII. The original body color is Light Ivory. The black leather seats are still in decent condition. Two soft tops- one original on frame and one newer black soft top cover in box . The hardtop is surprisingly in good condition. Engine is in the car, but needs reassembly. 36,113 miles is showing on odometer? (Boxes of parts are photograhed). This classic has roll down windows and who needs AC? Lots of rust and this car needs flooring, but there appears to be no rust through the rear tortion bar tubes! This is an incredible project car! Matching numbers verified by Porsche. VIN # 161610 Transmission #84868 Trans Gear # 124 741/2C Engine # P*716689 MADE IN GERMANY Certificate of Authenticity coming from Porsche . The crankshaft is standard and original -not reground. It has dual Zenith carburetors. There are several boxes of parts. Windshield, partial toolkit, new (NOS) drivers side front fender, mats, spare tire wheel,chrome and rubber moldings,turnsignal/parking light assemblys, exhaust extension, window scissors, speakers with covers, plastic windshield container, fuse box cover, optional camber compensator, new fron
