SOLD!!!!
This 1979 MBZ 450SL is a two owner car and comes with all records and books.
The car is in excellent condition and needs nothing to be enjoyed right away.
The Transmission has just been rebuilt by Ron Erickson of Exclusive Motors in Orange County Ca. One of the finest MBZ technicians around! Only 500 miles have been put on the car since the rebuild. Mechanically the car is SOUND. It runs and drives very nicely indeed.
The paint is almost flawless. There has been some minor paint work done to the car in its long history, but, it has been around for a while. To look at the car however, one would be hard press to fault the paint at all.
The interior is also nearly flawless with the exception of minor seat wear on the driver’s seat bolster edge…pretty normal. The car also comes with a brand new set of floor mats…still in plastic and a car cover
The top is as new!!!! It may have been put up for the first time, just yesterday ??? The rear top glass is perfect as is the canvas.
The car does come with both tops and the release mechanism works perfectly.
Are 450SL’s one of the next collectable cars? In this condition, perhaps.

SOLD!!!!
Literally found in a service station in Texas some 20 years ago, acquired by its current owner and stored in a dry storage environment for the same amount of time; this wonderful Healey 3000 underwent a body off restoration a couple of years ago and is in excellent condition. The car is believed to have only 28,000 original miles.
During the restoration the engine was re-freshed with no machine work needing to be performed. The crankshaft and pistons measure .oo. The engine has only minor oil seepage, fairly normal for this marque.
This lovely car is finished in British Racing Green with Black hides.
It runs terrific, though a bit cold blooded on initial cold start. There s no rust, no corrosion and the chassis is dry. There is also no sign of accident damage.
The bad: The tachometer is currently in-operative. The speedometer just quit working a few weeks ago, probable cable. The Fuel gauge is a bit erratic and will not always show fuel level.
Other than the minor challenges stated above, the car is in very good order indeed. Ready for tour or show.
This is a great car!!!

Year: 1964
Make: JAGUAR
Model: E-TYPE SEMI LIGHTWEIGHT ROADSTER
Custodians: Dr. and Mrs. Greg Johnson
Jaguar E-Type 880115 was ordered directly from the factory in late 1963 by Toronto-based Hugh Sutherland to compete in the 1964 Le Mans 24-Hour race. Hugh Sutherland, with accomplished drives for the Aston Martin factory team at Le Mans and the Austin Healey factory team at Sebring, ordered this specially prepared competition Jaguar at the factory with a steel monocoque, 3.8 competition engine with high compression head, lightened flywheel, competition clutch, close ratio gearbox, racing specification cool-ducted larger front brakes and special offset wheels. Hugh also arranged with the factory to fit his newly delivered car with additional “Lightweight” specification aluminum bonnet, hood, boot-lid, and doors as well as a 5-speed gearbox as evidenced by considerable documentation and correspondence with the factory. The car was delivered at the factory and registered with the factory numbers”6321WK” (a registration number usually found on factory team cars). 6321WK was accepted for Le Mans in 1964, Sterling Moss partnered with Hugh for the drive, however Mr. Sutherland’s sponsorship for the race did not materialize and he was unable to take the car to the La Sarthe event. Without sponsorship the lightweight body panels would have to wait until later for installation. This was finally done when the car was restored by Hans Glaser in Southern California. In 1964/1965 6321WK subsequently returned to Canada with Hugh where he had occasion to race the car at club events. After passing through a few ownership changes the car was eventually purchased and restored by Mr. Glaser. Once restored the car was purchased by Roger Wilbanks and then to John McCaw (Cavilino Holdings). John had a considerable amount of race preparation done to the car, all within period specification, with much of the work performed by Bruce Canepa. The car was purchased from John McCaw in 2004.
We have had the good fortune to know Greg and his lovely wife for years. They have successfully raced a number of vintage cars for some time and all of them; historically significant. Some years ago we had the pleasure of going for a ride with Greg in his factory Jaguar C- type race car; amazing!
This is a significant car with an amazing history. Available for purchase at $600,000.00 U.S.
