A collector's dream!

The Sabra was Israel's first and only sports car. Built in limited numbers by Autocars Co. Ltd of Haifa, the Sabra Sport was built alongside a few Autocars-branded models that were a little more ordinary-looking. The design of the Sabra was accomplished by Autocars purchasing the rights to the vehicles shape. The body is fibgerlass and it was built by Reliant, who actually ended up building the first 122 cars in England. They themselves built a version of the Sabra as the "Sabre" under their own marque. This is one of those "Israel-by-way-of-Tamworth, England" cars. It was delivered new to a Sabra dealer in the U.S. The engine here is a 1.7-liter Ford straight-four making 61 horsepower. You could buy these in Coupe form as well. Only 379 were built between 1961 and 1968, including both the drop-top and hard-top models.

The 1962 Sabra Sport Roaster featured here is finished in stunning Bright Red with a gorgeous matching interior. With just 666 miles, it is without question the finest example in existence and can virtually not be told from the day it was built. This Sabra has won multiple awards including the coveted AACA National First Prize.
