This 1973 911T is one of the best documented, well known 911′s ever produced by Porsche. It has covered only 23,100 miles since new and is original condition. Last shown at the 50th Porsche Parade, our 911 is best known for being the first 911 to win the Manhattan Trophy (1977) with then owners Tom and Sandy Smock. Robert Wood then purchased the T and used it for advertising his wheel business until being sold in 1984 to Greg Guffstavffon, who owned it until 2002. Traded amongst the top private collection since, this 911 features the S appearance package with front splitter, Becker Carona AM/FM stereo, full leather sport seats and 7′ RS wheels. On of only four cars painted in Cadillac Grey Beige metallic, this 911′s paint still shows like new.

One of our customers has charged us with the responsibility to complete some preservation work on his special 904.

This particular 904 has only covered 8,600 kilometers of racing and has had one exterior repaint. Otherwise, the car is in original condition. The overall goal of the project is to preserve the original finishes and authentic details throughout the car. Our customer is going to use the car lightly for special historical track events. Thus, he wants to preserve the originality and have it mechanically sorted. With that in mind, we are dissembling the entire car,  cleaning everything and conducting a thorough mechanical service.

Why buy one car when you can buy the whole collection? This 1964 XKE was one of the first purchases our friend, Tom bought when he decided to build a car collection. Tom had no experience as a collector, but he’d had 30 plus years in the high end furniture business which taught him about details. Every car in Tom collection is all about the details and this XKE is no exception.

Our 1964 3.8 Roadster featured here is one exception and has been maticulaly restored. When we purchased the Jaguar and drove her up the street it became readily apparent the car was rarely driven and never properly sorted. The crew at Road Scholars went to work and have spent way too many hours making sure she is a joy to drive. The 3.8 liter starts effortlessly and revs smoothly through out the RPM range making this a a true performer in its day with 0-60 times at 6.5 seconds obtainible. Every nut and bolt in the engine compartment is meticulously refiished and detailed, truly a work of art. The paint and bright work on the car was very good so it only needed a little love from Jason to really make her shine.  The interior and top were recovered and needed nothing. The sorting and adjusting and polishing took alot of time and the final product was well worth it, a show ready XKE that you can drive anywhere.

This 1996 Turbo is a rare car indeed, one owner with very low mileage. Purchased new here in North Carolina it has remained with its original owner for over 15 years. The black paint is all original, this Turbo has  had no paint work and shines like the day she left the factory. The black interior is in excellent showing with only the minimal wear 12,000 miles would include. We have just completely serviced the car and replaced the tires(age)so she is ready to go. This is the dream of any Porsche fan, the last of the air cooled turbo’s coming from its original owner. Window sticker, maintance records, books and tools included.

I have loved this little hot rod for years and as luck would have it we bought it! This 58 Sunroof Coupe was restored by John Willhoit (www.willhoitautorestoration.com) a few years ago and features one of his 1925cc, twin plug motors. The Coupe got to him without its original engine so it was the perfect choice for his “hot rod” motors. The engine is awesome with over 140 hp, double the horsepower form stock! The motor pulls strong from 2000 rpm all the way to the 6100 rpm red line making it a blast to drive! The body is excellent, as you would expect coming from John’s shop, great gaps, exceptional fit and finish to go with the slick, mirror like paint. The interior features oatmeal carpet and tan vinyl and a nice re pop of the Nardi wood steering wheel. The Factory Sunroof makes this car one of the most desirable of all the 356 models when combined with the iconic “A” body style. This is the most enjoyable 356 A we have ever driven.

This 1971 Mercedes 280SE 3.5 Convertible has been meticulously restored to the highest standards for a very particular previous owner. This lovely cabriolet was shown a the prestigious Quail Lodge event a few year ago and was then sold to the private collection we obtained it from. The details of this 280SE 3.5 are stunning, the silver paint remains in flawless condition laid over a straight and true body with great gaps on all of the closing panels. The bright work on the car is fantastic, the grill and all the chrome were done to show car standards, no flaws or ripples to be found, just miles of lovely chrome.

The Blue Hartzcloth top fits impeccably well and the fit is immaculate down to the headliner. The interior is a show stopper, with a wood dash that has been beautifully refinished and every chrome or polished piece has been finished and fitted to perfection. The leather is exquisite in every way, hide after hide, stitch after stitch was used to bring the interior up to its elegant perfection. The engine compartment is incredible and the amount of work that went into the mechanical’s are mind boggling with stunning results at the turn of a key or pop of the hood. The only thing that makes this car complete is how they all work together, seamlessly, smoothly and unparalleled is the only way to describe it. I invite you to come and view what can only be defined as on of the rarest, finest restored 4 place Mercedes in the world. This car is incredible! Wow! what a well done automobile.

This XK120 Fixed Head Coupe comes to us from a automobile collection focused on being the BEST. The details are what separates the best from all other restored cars available. Our XK was pulled out of a warehouse in the San Francisco area in the mid-90′s, 100% original, where it had sat for over 34 years. Mike and Sue Tillson of West Chester, Pennsylvania had just won their class at the Amelia Island’s Concours and were now looking to win at Pebble Beach.  They purchased this car to win because the Jaguar was still wearing her original paint and interior and every nut, bolt, washer, hose clamp, etc. was also completely original to the car.

Following a 2 year restoration and a few hundred thousand dollars, they discovered the class they wished to enter was no longer and their dream of competing at Pebble Beach with this exquisite car would not happen. The Tillson’s did show her at a JCNA event and scored 99.95 out of 100 points then vanished for the better part of 10 years. We have been lucky enough to find this treasure, having traveled only a few hundred miles since being in a private collection and still wearing her California black plate.
This is the finest XK120 on the planet and with a little prep will be a consistent class winner at any Concours!

SOLD
The 300SL Roadster offered here is documented as being only the eighth such
Roadster ever built. As such, it bore many similarities to the 300 SL Gullwing.
According to research documentation provided by Mercedes-Benz Classic in
Stuttgart, the car was delivered to the U.S. sales distribution agency on July
31, 1957. At the time of delivery, it was finished in black with red leather and
white piping and featured English instrumentation, sealed-beam lights with a
separate parking light, as well as a two-piece trunk set. Additionally, it
featured an optional rear-axle ratio of 3.891 as opposed to the standard 3.641.
A barn find of sorts, the car was found rather recently in Ohio, unrestored and
unregistered for road use in over twenty years. Its current owner, only the
third in the Roadsters history, acquired it in November 2003 and commenced a
nearly two-year restoration, which was completed under noted expert Brian
Anderson of Classic European Restorations in Escondido, California. This
frame-off restoration was finished in the summer of 2005 and no expense was
spared in reviving or replacing every element of the car when necessary. HK
Engineering of Germany, a respected 300 SL supplier with over twenty years
experience, supplied various pieces such as the Rudge wheels, which, it should
be noted, were not originally supplied with this car. In addition to receiving
Best in Class honors in 2006 at both the Los Angeles and Palos Verdes Concours
dElegance, this spectacular Mercedes was awarded Best in Show at the Gullwing
National Convention in San Diego, a very praiseworthy accomplishment bestowed by
peers and experts of this marque and model. Since completion of the
aforementioned restoration, the car has never seen road use and has only been
driven to and from its trailer at show events. The quality and attention to
detail of the workmanship is readily apparent in the cars present concours-ready
condition. The metallic blue paint is spectacular and, along with the matching
Rudge wheels, blue convertible top, and brightwork, appears to be free of
imperfections and very well maintained. As for the interior, the Parchment
leather upholstery is outstanding as well – nicely fitted and in as-new
condition. The instrumentation, white steering wheel, grey carpeting, and Becker
radio all have a showroom quality appearance, indicative of the cars extremely
limited use. In the trunk, a proper two-piece luggage set matches the interior.
As would be expected, the engine bay and engine show no evidence of road use and
have been restored to as-new factory specifications. The frame itself was
powdercoated during restoration and is essentially spotless as well. Finally, in
addition to the matching trunks, an owners manual and complete set of tools will
accompany the car. In the 300 SL Roadster, the enthusiast finds all the pedigree
that re-established Mercedes-Benzs dominance over road racing alongside a sexy,
unmistakable body. Given the high desirability of the 300 SL Roadster on todays
market, an expertly restored example is all the more attractive. A 300 SL such
as this is equally deserving of careful preservation as it is of attendance at
the worlds finest concours events. It is, quite simply, one of the finest 300 SL
Roadsters extant.
