1970 mercedes-benz 300 sel 6.3 sedan

US$139,500.00 Some of the greatest enthusiast cars in history have come from the fruitful minds of engineers forced to work in secret to avoid the swinging axe of the bean-counters or judgmental frowns of pragmatic executives. This was the case with the Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.3 and its creator, Erich Waxenberger. In the mid-1960s, the Mercedes-Benz lineup was very conservative. Even the SL sports car was limited to six cylinders and heavily biased toward automatic transmissions and luxury touring. Mercedes' saloon car lineup was even more staid, with the W108 and its air-suspended sibling, the W109, topping out with a 3.0 liter, Bosch-injected inline six. Of course, these were wonderful cars built with exceptional attention to detail - they just lacked the performance that Waxenberger desired.

1979 mercedes-benz 450slc coupe

US$52,500.00 Following up on the commercial success of the R113-series 230, 250 and 280SL, Mercedes-Benz unveiled the all-new and thoroughly modern R107-series in 1971\\. The 107 continued along the path forged by the R113 that set the foundation of the SL-class as we know it today. The R113 was the car that took the engineering excellence of the original 300SL...

1987 mercedes-benz 560sl convertible

US$48,500.00 The perennial Mercedes-Benz R107 series is one of the most iconic luxury cars of the 70s and 80s. In movies and television, the SL roadster was often the car seen cruising Rodeo Drive or through Miami Beach. It was a car that defined the marque and the era. Such was its enduring charm; it is surprising to recall the...

1928 packard 443 murphy convertible sedan

US$225,000.00 The summer of 1927 saw Packard introduce its newest model, known officially as the Fourth Series, or the 4-43\\. Based on a 143" wheelbase and powered by the same proven 385 cubic inch inline eight-cylinder engine as the 1926 models, this new car represented a typically evolutionary step forward for Packard. The legendary straight eight featured nine main bearings,...

1928 packard eight dual windshield phaeton

US$129,500.00 Most enthusiasts will agree that Packard's glory days began in earnest in the late 1920s and ran through the mid-1930s. During this time, the famed Detroit automaker was building some of the finest automobiles on the market, expanding its reputation around the world and supplying machines to moguls and Hollywood stars. The over-engineered nature of their chassis and engines...

1936 packard super 8 coupe roadster

US$139,500.00 In many ways, Packard's 14th series marked a significant turning point for the company. Introduced in 1936 to replace the 12th series (there was no 13thseries for superstitious reasons), the model itself was very much evolutionary. But it marked the end of the line for many signature Packard features such as the 17" wire wheels, ride control shocks, Bijur...

1937 packard twelve dual cowl phaeton

US$650,000.00 In 1937, Packard produced a very respectable 122,593 cars, a number which they were rightly quite proud of. Of that total, however, a mere 1,300 left the famous Detroit plant with the spectacular twelve-cylinder engine. Period press accolades declared these later series Packard Twelves (1932-1939) as "the nearest thing to steam" such was their seamless, silken and relentless power...

1939 packard twelve brunn touring cabriolet

US$159,500.00 Introduced in 1939, Packard's 17th series marked the final year for the legendary and long-running twelve cylinder model. The permanent effects of the Great Depression were taking hold as annual sales of the flagship Twelve dipped to just 500 units, largely due to the fact that the era of custom-bodied automobiles was fading quickly. Since the end of the...

1956 packard caribbean coupe

US$59,500.00 Packard of the mid 1950s was a rather different company than it was back in the heady pre-war classic era. Sales were slowing in the face of competition by the might of GM and Ford, and a merger with Studebaker was in the works by 1954 in attempt to boost Packard's market share and balance the books of both...

1962 rolls-royce silver cloud ii lwb

US$69,500.00 The Silver Cloud series marked a significant step for Rolls Royce when it was introduced in April of 1955\\. Rolls Royce was rationalizing their production line as the days of supplying bare chassis to coachbuilders were winding down and standard showroom models were becoming ever more popular. The standardization of production allowed Rolls Royce to produce cars in greater...

1910 stevens duryea model x touring

US$259,500.00 After parting ways with his brother Charles at the Duryea Motor Wagon Co., J. Frank Duryea set off on his own to form Hampden Automobile & Launch Co. in Springfield, Massachusetts.

1991 toyota century sedan

US$24,500.00 The Toyota Century made its first appearance way back in 1967 to celebrate the centennial of the company's founder, Sakichi Toyoda. As a fitting tribute, designers envisioned a car that would satisfy the ideals of Japanese luxury, with no compromises from outside cultures. Conceived as a Japanese equivalent to a Rolls-Royce, the Century was a hand-built limousine intended for...

1949 volkswagen beetle sedan

US$69,500.00 It could easily be argued that the Volkswagen Beetle (officially designated the Type 1) is the most popular and most recognizable car ever produced. Like the Ford Model T before it, the Volkswagen put a nation (and the world) on wheels thanks to its low cost and elegant mechanical simplicity. Despite its somewhat dubious roots within the Third Reich,...
