Presented in DB125 Pearl Gray with a green interior and soft top, this 1962 Mercedes-Benz 190SL Roadster has had the benefit of more than 45 years of custodianship by two owners in Canada. Service records and registrations document the car’s history back to 1978. Documentation shows the car belonged to Mark Cote of Ontario, Canada, a member of the armed forces who owned the car from 1966-1987. Service records indicate that he drove the car to his numerous military posts in Canada, including in Ottawa, Halifax, Quebec and Victoria. From 1992-2011, the car was cared for by Marie and Harvey White of Ottawa, Canada. Powered by the 1.9L 4-cylinder engine, dual Solex carburetors feed the mill and a 4-speed manual transmission sends power to the rear wheels. Complete with power brakes, a Blaupunkt AM/FM radio, VDO instrumentation, bumper guards, chrome stone guards and the desirable matching luggage set, this 190SL presents in exquisite condition, a testament to the care it received over the past several decades. An obvious visual descendant from the exotic and expensive 300SL, the car also shared certain mechanical and engineering commonalities. The engine was based loosely on the 300SL’s inline 6-cylinder, and both cars featured fully independent suspensions, double wishbones in front and swing axles in the rear, and a monocoque body. First introduced in 1955, the 190SL retailed for about $4,000, a far cry from the stratospheric $12,000 a 300SL could command. The 190SL was a comfortable, easy-cruising roadster that could provide hours of enjoyment in town or on the open road. Its steering was relatively light with a responsive feel. With a nice reputation for exemplary handling and exquisite road manners, the 190SL was also easy to manage and live with, thanks to the simpler serviceability.

That letter “S” in the Formula might easily have stood for “Superb” when looking at this beautiful 1968 Barracuda. The Formula S connotation had been used to define the performance version of Plymouth’s A-body based as a Sport model—hence the real definition of that letter. The car offered here has benefitted from a rotisserie restoration and, moreover, it is also a big-block machine, featuring the matching-numbers 383/300 HP engine and TorqueFlite transmission. This option was big news following the 1967 redesign of the body that allowed the installation of the dimensionally larger B/RB engine series. This example reads Super Commando 383 on the air cleaner pie-pan and features a 4-barrel carburetor and factory exhaust manifolds. Built on October 2, 1967, in Hamtramck, Michigan, this car received the maximum cooling package, and the rest of the driveline includes an 8.75 Sure Grip rear axle with 3.23 gears. The Formula S Package and Rallye suspension meant power disc brakes, stronger leaf springs and torsion bars, Formula S medallions, and a deluxe light package with hood-mounted turn indicators. Inside the car are new bucket seats, upholstery, headliner, side panels and carpet. The round-faced dash layout features a 150 MPH speedometer, while this car came complete with console floor shifter, thumbwheel-style AM radio and rear-window defogger. The exterior is painted deep red with black rocker stripes and further features 383-S cast hood inserts, chrome exhaust extensions, a flip-top gas cap and Barracuda emblems. Today, the car still rides on original 14x5.5-inch body-color painted steel wheels with poverty-type small hubcaps and Firestone E70-14 redline tires. Accompanied by a Chrysler Registry report that denotes its unique equipment, the color combination, exquisite reconditioning and all-around aggressive stance, this Formula S was brewed up to hit the mark. For fans of not-often-seen Mopars, this is a unique ’68 big-block A-body.

This epic machine is a virtually new 2016 Porsche 911R with only 57 original miles. This 6-speed manual transmission-equipped Porsche features more than $60,000 in options including: the Porsche Special Wishes Custom Tailoring interior; black leather on the dash pad, steering wheel, steering column, center console, armrests, door panels and seats with deviated GT Silver stitching; front axle lift; Sport Chrono; LED headlights; Bose audio; and carbon-fiber mirrors and door sills. The 911R is a serious machine equipped with the 4.0L/500 HP, direct fuel-injected engine sourced from the 2016 911 GT3 RS. The carbon-ceramic 4-wheel disc brakes are also shared with the 2016 GT3 RS. However, beyond these two mechanical common denominators, the two cars are very divergent in personality. Where the GT3 RS relies on advanced aerodynamics and uber sophistication, the 911R is the embodiment of stark simplicity and minimalism. This machine is the spiritual successor to the 1967 911R, Porsche’s first purpose-built 911-based race car that was put on a massive weight reduction and fitted with a 906-spec race engine. The 2016 version subscribes to this same ethos, being 110 pounds lighter than the GT3 RS, with less aerodynamic drag since it is built on the narrow-body 911 shell. Additional lightweight features include a magnesium roof skin, carbon-fiber front fenders and 20-inch alloy wheels. Certainly the party piece of the 911R is the 6-speed manual gearbox, as no automatic was made available on this model. The 911R is easily identified by its minimum of aerodynamic appendages, but it is extremely rare to see one. With a total production run of just 991 units, purchasers of the hybrid supercar Porsche 918 Spyder were given the first right of refusal for buying a 911R. It’s a modern legend, with a race-bred 6-speed manual transmission that lets the lucky pilot have the fun of rowing through the gears while listening to the pleasing wail of the naturally aspirated flat-6 engine.

Packard 1508 Twelve Convertible Sedan 1937, Estados Unidos








Packard 1508 Twelve Convertible Sedan 1937, Estados Unidos
Motor : 473/175HP

Interior : Vermelho
Fotografia


HIGHLIGHTS
·         The final year that the Packard 12 was offered on the 144 inch wheelbase
·         Comprehensive restoration completed by marque expert Ray Belsito
·         473/175 HP L-head 12-cylinder engine
·         3-speed manual transmission
·         Safe-T-Flex independent front suspension
·         Live rear axle with semi-elliptical leaf springs
·         4-wheel power-assisted hydraulic drum brakes

The Packard Twelve Fifteenth Series marked a new era that began in September 1936 when company literature enthusiastically proclaimed, “the new models include Packard Safety Plus bodies of hardwood and steel, new Double Trussed frames which are 400 percent more rigid than before, the exclusive Safe-T-flex independent front wheel suspension, built-in trunks and Servo Sealed hydraulic brakes.” With a company-wide downsizing on the horizon, 1937 was the final year for the Senior 144-inch long-wheelbase Twelve, which also benefited from the return to disc-type steel wheels and the elimination of the aged Bijur central-chassis lubrication system. Loyal Packard customers rewarded these wide-ranging innovations, doubling sales from 682 for the Fourteenth Series to 1,300 for the Fifteenth. Widely considered to be the most majestic of the Fifteenth Series Twelves, and among the finest of any series, this 1937 Packard 1508 Convertible Sedan was the largest and costliest of that year’s production-bodied models. Powered by Packard’s legendary 473/175 HP L-head 12-cylinder engine in concert with a 3-speed manual transmission, this 1508 was comprehensively restored by noted Packard expert Ray Belsito, who is renowned for his award-winning work on a variety of CCCA Full Classic automobiles. Correctly finished in beautiful Buckingham Gray and sporting a pristine interior featuring snappy red leather upholstery and opulent wood-grain accents, this magnificent automobile is superbly finished throughout, presenting in excellent overall condition with a wide array of the most desirable optional accessories that includes a correct radio and heater, covered side-mount spares with mirrors, dual driving lights, a painted rear-mounted luggage rack with an original Packard metal trunk and the famous swan hood mascot. A well-fitting and fresh looking folding beige soft top and wide whitewall tires on chrome-trimmed painted steel wheels add another measure of grandeur to this regal Packard Twelve, which is ready to occupy an honored place in any collection.
