A most elegant way to tour long distance: 1962 Rolls-Royce Phantom V by James Young. Private Sale, Cape Town.
A beautiful example of RR engineering and James Young craftsmanship. Original owner changed engine 20 years ago, but present owner has the original motor and gearbox which comes with the car. An unique opportunity to own one of only 516 cars that RR ever made of this model.
Planning a Spring weekend? 1959 Kaiser Traveler.
In family since new, rare factory sedan hatchback with tailgate and rear forward folding seat. Only 62,000 from new. Completely original, runs and drives excellently. Recent new paint, tires and JEEP tent for camping. Additional photos on request.
La Déesse by Chapron, the most beautiful drophead ever.
Lot 245
Manufactured on 8th December 1967, this left hand drive cabriolet is one of only 128 produced and is described as being in good condition throughout. This particular example features the fared-in headlamps rather than the optional pod spot lamps, which was new for 1967. A bold and ground-breaking design when launched, the timeless design of the DS, especially in cabriolet form, is one of the most desirable cars ever built, and with prices now reflecting their iconic status, now is the time to buy before prices really do hit the stratosphere.
Supercharged Bug Eyed bargain! 1959 Healey Sprite
1959 Austin Healey "SUPERCHARGED" Bug Eye Sprite. GREAT RESTORATION PROJECT, we think not!
However, this is a complete and an extremely original "Bug-Eye". Most importantly it was equipped with a JUDSON SUPERCHARGER, Ferrari air horns and more. This "yard find" was hiding under some bushes about 18 miles from where Haden and Charley Judson had their shop and marketed their own superchargers and other effective racing and performance accessories for the fifties and sixties sports cars.
It was discovered in a hermit’s estate in Eastern, Pennsylvania a few years ago. This car was completely hidden by brush that had literally grown over it. It will make a great donor/parts car for a rust free buy-eye as it is wonderfully untouched. The engine is seized. The odometer reads just over 77,000 miles. It does roll. The floor boards are pretty rotted out. The front bonnet is just setting in place, as we unbolted it to get better photographs. The seats, the instruments, all of the switches and knobs are the original and in decent shape.
This is a great opportunity for someone that wants to put their bug-eye back to original, but with a period Judson Supercharger that will make it go a bunch faster.
$3450.00 USD FOB Lynchburg, VA buys it.
Very rare 1964 Lancia Flavia Spider by Vignale.
1964 LANCIA FLAVIA CABRIOLET BY VIGNALE
VIGNALE, of Torino bodied Lancia "Flavia" Convertible
This is a very special Lancia "Flavia" cabriolet custom body by Vignale of Torino. It has been off the road since 1994. It is very straight and appears quite original. Close inspection reveals a one time repaint from likely the 1970's. It appears to have always been black, but we have no way to know for certain. There is some evidence of previous patches on the inner and outer rockers, but again this work would probably have to date back 25+ years. Nothing is busting out and there are no glaring holes or real bubbling going on. The paint has lots of nicks and scratches, but from thirty feet away the car is pretty presentable. The leather is dry, but original to the car and serviceable. The dash top is original and appears to be excellent. The odometer reads 61,713 miles. We think it is the actual miles, but due to having no direct knowledge we do have to sell the car as TRUE MILEAGE UNKNOWN. The brakes are apart but all there. It appears that the former owner was in the process of rebuilding the brakes. Quite a large array of spares, some NOS go with the car. An extra set of good original hubcaps go with it. The service manuals shown in the photos all go with it. It does not run, but the engine turns. It does have a clear title. The windshield has one small chip, otherwise the glass is good. The original black canvas top is pretty much intact, but not perfect. The chrome is quite good and all original. It has been stored indoors for many years. The car looks good enough for someone with some time and talent on their hands to be able to sympathetically service this car up, finish the brake overhaul job, clean out and service the fuel system, install a new battery and put the car back on the road without doing a full restoration first. It would then just be a nice looking old vintage Lancia with a heavy patina. It would be quite cool. Don't wait around on this one to pull the trigger as it will likely be gone quickly. SOLD AS-IS FOB Lynchburg, VA.
We encourage people to ask questions and to come and see the car in person. For appointment please call Nate at 434-384-1015 or email at Thompson.hdproductions@gmail.com
