The big parking lot at 71 Smith Street between Schermerhorn and State streets in Boerum Hill sold well above ask. It went on the market this summer with a price tag of $30 million and just hit public records for $38,500,000. The seller was the Manhattan-based real estate firm Time Equities. The buyer is behind a mysterious LLC, but it looks like they're also based in Manhattan. The lot allows for a 300,000-square-foot build, 206,530 of which could be residential and 105,271 commercial. Update: Crain's reported this news last month, and it turns out the developers will build "nearly 210,000 square feet of residential condos and a 105,000-square-foot hotel." Big plans! The developers are the Carlyle Group and Flank Development.

This property was part of a master plan by Borough President Howard Golden and Empire State Development. I don't remember what was agreed to for this site, but I assume the terms are binding on the "mysterious LLC."

What about the lot at the corner of Hoyt & State? It must be worth a great deal, but it looks as if someone is using it to hoard old cars.
Interesting that Time Equities didn't decide to develop this themselves. I understand they made a killing on those State St townhouses they built a few years ago. I guess the value of the lot was just so high they chose to take the cash.
Given the location of the subway immediately below, this is a complicated (and expensive lot) on which to build. It has been vacant since the construction of the F in the '30s for that reason. It also may have the G below as it turns from Smith Street towards Hoyt-Schermerhorn. Building on these lots requires coordination and approval from the MTA which will add cost and time to any project.

The Bride of Frankenstein (Universal, 1935). Pre-War Belgian (24.5" X 33.5").. ...
DescriptionThe Bride of Frankenstein (Universal, 1935). Pre-War Belgian (24.5" X 33.5").
James Whale's sequel to his 1931 masterpiece Frankenstein quickly became a classic in its own right, surpassing the original in many ways. Boris Karloff and Colin Clive return as the monster and his maker, and Ernest Thesiger, seen below left, is pure genius as the mad Dr. Pretorius. Dr. Frankenstein is torn between his new bride Elizabeth (Valerie Hobson) and his desire to continue his gruesome experiments with Pretorius. When Frankenstein is blackmailed into creating another monster, The Bride is born, played beautifully by Elsa Lanchester who also stars in a dual role as the narrator Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. The superb makeup by Jack Pierce, gothic sets, and powerful performances by the stars, make this a flawless masterpiece. And evidenced by recent Heritage auctions, this is one of the top titles for movie poster connoisseurs. We have never offered another copy of this magnificent pre-war Belgian poster! Prior to professional restoration the poster had a chip off of the upper left corner within the imprint area next to the "S" in "Select." There was a clean tear from the bottom border into the word "Frankenstein" in the credit box. There was a small clean tear from the right border into Elsa Lancaster's gown, a tiny hole upper right of her head and a minuscule stain in Frankenstein's chin. There was a small "v" shaped tear in the yellow field above the monster's head, and minor clean border tears in the lower right border. The image was completely intact and the poster was in very nice condition prior to the work done. This is an absolutely beautiful image of the monster and his mate and not to be missed! Very Fine- on Linen.

I tried to convince the Lobo Card people to take my pic with my sunglasses on because I will probably always be this hungover.
Well I was kicked out of the bar and woke up on a picnic table. I'd say the night was awesome!

1938's racing car of the future – the Adler Trumpf Rennlimousine
1938 Adler Trumpf Rennlimousine. Photos by Darin Schnabel, courtesy RM Sotheby's.
In the latter half of the 1930s, most racing cars remained open-cockpit in design, sent power to the rear wheels (Harry Miller's FWD Indy Car excepted), and featured the most powerful engines allowed by competition rules. German automaker Adler believed it had a better idea, and its Trumpf Rennlimousine was a combination of rolling laboratory, race car and show car. Roughly six were built, and three are known to survive today; in August, a 1938 Adler Trumpf Rennlimousine believed to have raced at Le Mans in 1937 will cross the auction stage in Monterey, California.
Designed by Hans-Gustav Röhr, the Trumpf platform dated to 1932 and featured front-wheel drive and a four-wheel independent suspension. Not all Trumpf designs were cutting-edge, however, as the car also employed thermosiphon cooling that negated the need for a water pump, at the expense of some cooling efficiency. Turning a modestly powered sedan into a race car would take a bit of engineering, so Adler turned to the body designs of airship engineer Paul Jaray.
Licensing Jaray's designs, the Rennlimousine featured an enclosed cabin, a tapered rear and a windshield that wrapped around a full 180 degrees, allowing cleaner airflow across the body. Styled without the use of a wind tunnel, the Adler was tested on the road, at speed, with lengths of string attached to its body to monitor the way that wind flowed across its shape.
Such a sleek design allowed the use of a smaller and more efficient engine, and chassis 167 671 was campaigned with a 1.9-liter inline-four that produced just 56 horsepower. While acceleration wasn't spectacular, the car's wind-cheating shape provided a distinct fuel consumption advantage in endurance races like the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Reportedly entered as car #34 in the 1937 running of Le Mans, chassis 167 671 finished in ninth place overall (but fourth in the 2.0-liter class), with drivers Otto Löhr and Paul von Guilleaume at the wheel. The car raced again at the 24 Hours of Spa in 1938, wearing the number 32, but an accident ended its day, and perhaps its racing career, prematurely. The Rennlimousine was sent to the factory for repairs, and upon completion was shipped to an Adler importer to serve as a demonstration and show car.
The history of 167 671 during the war years is unknown, but the car resurfaced in Ansbach, Germany, under private ownership in 1955. Though its original engine and most of its original bodywork remained, the car wore a front bumper split by a registration plate, fog lamps, and decorative aluminum strips on its nose and front fender openings.
By the late 1950s, the Adler had made its way across the Atlantic, and would eventually find a home with Joe Gertler, Sr., a Bronx garage owner who would go on to own two of the three surviving Rennlimousines. Under Gertler's stewardship, the car was maintained but not returned to its original racing configuration. Later, it was acquired by Jimmy Brucker, a Southern California collector who counted Von Dutch, Robert Williams and Ed Roth among his friends, and enjoyed a prosperous business supplying unusual foreign autos to the film industry. Brucker's collection would eventually morph into the MovieWorld Cars of the Stars and Planes of Fame museum in Buena Park, California, and the Rennlimousine occupied a place here until the business closed its doors.
The Blackhawk Collection was the next to purchase the Adler, and funded a restoration back to as-raced configuration, deleting the bumpers, fog lamps and ornamental trim, and returning the car to its original silver color. It was acquired by the consignor in 1994, and has been part of his private collection for the past two decades.
Given the Adler's ties to automotive history and to the early days of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, RM Sotheby's is predicting a selling price between $1.2 – $1.8 million when the car crosses the auction stage in California this August.

Could this 1969 AAR Eagle Santa Ana have taken Joe Leonard to an Indy 500 win?
1969 AAR Eagle Santa Ana, chassis 703. Photos by Gabor Mayer, courtesy RM Sotheby's.
History tells us the 1969 Indy 500 was won by Mario Andretti, driving the STP-sponsored #2 Andy Granatelli car. His primary challenger, Lloyd Ruby, was taken out in a lap 105 refueling incident, but Joe Leonard, driving the 1969 AAR Eagle Santa Ana City of Daytona Beach, had fought his way to second before being black-flagged for a coolant leak. Had a hose clamp not punctured his radiator, history may have been recorded differently. Next month, the car that may have carried Leonard to victory at Indianapolis heads to auction in Monterey, California.
Named for the home town of Dan Gurney's All American Racers (AAR), the Santa Ana chassis was the second Indy Car created by British engineer Tony Southgate, who had been lured to AAR to develop a winning Formula 1 car.
Both Indy Cars designed during Southgate's time at AAR borrowed features (like a narrow-waisted monocoque) from the F1 project, but each series was evolved to meet the demands of Indy Car racing, and more specifically, the demands of the Indy 500.
Compared to the AAR Eagle designed for the 1968 Indy 500, the Santa Ana chassis featured a wheelbase that was stretched by 3.5 inches and clad in extended bodywork to reduce lift at speed.
Said to be the lowest and widest AAR design to that point in time, the Santa Ana also took advantage of rule changes that allowed 10-inch wheels in front and 14-inch wheels in back that further improved traction in the corners. A new roll-bar design meant a stronger (and safer) chassis, while vented four-wheel-disc brakes provided fade-resistant stops from speed.
One of four Santa Ana chassis built in 1969, number 703 was delivered new to legendary tuner Smokey Yunick, who fitted a 159-cu.in turbocharged Ford V-8 said to be good for over 800 horsepower.
Driving duties were handled by Joe Leonard, who had amassed four starts at the Brickyard by 1969, including a 1968 start from the pole position behind the wheel of a turbine-powered Lotus 56. The 1969 race, however, proved to be an uphill battle for Leonard, who qualified 11 and started from the middle of the third row.
When Lloyd Ruby retired on lap 105, it appeared that Leonard had a legitimate shot at challenging Mario Andretti for the lead, if not for the victory. His dream of a win, however, would end on lap 150, when the number 44 car received a black flag for leaking fluids on the racing surface.
A pit stop revealed the cause to be a punctured radiator, and despite heroic efforts from Smokey Yunick's crew (which replaced the damaged radiator in under 14 minutes), Leonard rejoined the field multiple laps down. By the checkered flag, he'd managed to climb back up to sixth position, a respectable finish given the cards he'd been dealt that day.
Yunick, however, was said to be disgusted that a lowly hose clamp had cost his team a shot at victory. Following the 1969 Indianapolis 500, chassis 703 was shipped back to Yunick's garage in Daytona Beach, where it was partially disassembled and stored for the next three decades.
Though Yunick would never see the car raced again, he wasn't particularly eager to part with it, either, and it remained in this state of limbo until 2001. Shortly before his death, Yunick agreed to sell the Santa Ana chassis, and its buyer enlisted the help of Indy Car legends A.J. Watson and Willie Davis with its restoration.
Purchased by the consignor in 2007, the car made an appearance at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in 2008. It's not clear if the car has been raced since, and though it is described as "dutifully maintained," a mechanical refurbishing may be needed if the next owner is serious about vintage racing the Santa Ana chassis.
At last year's Monterey auctions, a second AAR Eagle Santa Ana chassis, number 702, sold for $104,500, but that car served as a spare during the 1969 race and never saw competition. Given 703's history with both Leonard and Yunick, RM Sotheby's is prediciting a selling price between $350,000 and $450,000 when the car crosses the auction stage in California.
The RM Sotheby's Monterey sale will take place from August 13-15 at the Portola Hotel & Spa in Monterey, California. For additional information, visit RMAuctions.com.
A pair of jet age, Ghia-bodied Supersonics lands on the Monterey Peninsula
1952 Jaguar XK120 Supersonic by Ghia. Jaguar Supersonic photos by Darin Schnabel, courtesy RM Sotheby's.
Originally intended as a one-off custom body for an Alfa Romeo 1900 entered into the 1953 Mille Miglia, the "Supersonic" design penned by Giovanni Savonuzzi and crafted by Carrozzeria Ghia later saw limited production. Ghia would go on to create just 20 examples, including the original Alfa Romeo (destroyed in a crash and subsequent fire at the 1953 Mille Miglia); 15 on the Fiat 8V chassis; three on the Jaguar XK120 chassis and one on the Aston Martin DB 2/4 chassis. Next month in Monterey, California, two Ghia Supersonics will cross the auction stage, including a one-of-two remaining 1952 Jaguar XK120 Supersonic and a 1953 Fiat 8V Supersonic.
Savonuzzi's initial work on the Supersonic came before his employment by Ghia, the legendary shop in Torino, Italy. Working with tuner Virgilio Conrero at the request of a wealthy client, Savonuzzi designed a body that was clearly influenced by jet aircraft. Up front, the grille resembled a jet intake, while the taillamps were housed in pods meant to resemble a jet engine's exhaust. Vestigial fins rose from the rear fenders, and a ridge running from front fender to door, then across the rear fender, gave a nod, perhaps, to a jet's wings and horizontal stabilizers.
It was a striking, if short-lived, design, but praise from Chrysler's Virgil Exner and Paul Farago prompted Ghia to create the Supersonic body for the Fiat 8V. As a carrozzeria, however, Ghia was open to crafting the body for any suitable chassis, and one such request came from a Paris dealer whose customer wanted two 1952 Jaguar XK120s reskinned in Supersonic guise, one in red and one in blue.
Upon completion, chassis 679768 was shipped from Ghia's factory to the 1954 Paris Auto Show. In addition to its futuristic body, this particular Jaguar Supersonic had another selling point beneath its hood; atop the 3.4-liter Jaguar inline six was a cylinder head modified by Virgilio Conrero himself. Instead of the Jaguar's usual twin-SU carburetor setup, the Conrero-tuned engine ran a trio of two-barrel Weber carburetors, pushing output to an estimated 220 horsepower.
Following its 1954 Paris debut, the Jaguar appeared at the London Motor Show, the Montreaux Concours d'Elegance and the Cannes Concours d'Elegance, where it was shown alongside the other two Jaguar Supersonic models. Both the red car and the blue car were delivered to the buyer, a Monsieur Malpelli, but a payment dispute prompted the repossession of both cars.
Chassis 679768 remained unsold at the Paris dealer until 1969, when it was acquired by Philippe Renault. It's not clear how long he held onto the Ghia-bodied Jaguar, but the car's next owner was collector Roland Urban, who displayed the Supersonic in his collection of custom-bodied Jaguars at Montlhéry, France, and featured the car in his book, Les Métamorphoses du Jaguar.
In 1994, the car was acquired by another French Jaguar collector, who funded a partial restoration despite a mere 9,400 kilometers (5,828 miles) having passed beneath its wheels. Its exterior was refinished by Atelier Sontrop in a deep metallic red, but the Supersonic's tan leather interior needed no attention and remains original to this day.
In 2007, the Ghia-bodied Jaguar was purchased by the consignors, and today shows 22,000 kilometers (13,640 miles) on its odometer. Offered with extensive documentation, the car is said to be one of just two remaining Supersonic-bodied Jaguars; remarkably, the other is the blue car originally ordered by Monsieur Malpelli. RM Sotheby's predicts a selling price between $1.9 and $2.4 million when the car crosses the block in Monterey.

The second Supersonic to be offered during this year's Car Week on the Monterey Peninsula is a 1953 Fiat 8V Supersonic, carrying the 10th such body built by Ghia. Shown at the 1954 Geneva Motor Show, chassis 000049 was then sent to Chrysler chairman K.T. Keller, perhaps for evaluation or merely for his enjoyment. Its first owner of record was Lou Fageol, a three-time Gold Cup winner in hydroplane racing. Fageol also had a penchant for creating twin-engine race cars, including a 1946 Indy 500 entry driven by Paul Russo and a pair of Porsche models raced in SCCA competition.
The Fiat Supersonic was shown at the 1957 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, but later under Fageol's stewardship was modified to suit his personal taste in automotive design. Imperial-style fins were riveted to the Ghia body, and a Continental kit was added to the car's trunk. When Fageol died in 1961, the car passed to his son, who restored the bodywork to its as-manufactured state.
The Fiat 8V Supersonic changed hands twice before being purchased by the consignor in 1979. As acquired, it was powered by a fuel-injected small-block Chevy instead of the original Fiat V-8, and the search for a period-correct Fiat engine began. Shortly after one was located, the car's owner was able to locate the engine originally fitted to chassis 000049, which now once again rests beneath the Ghia bodywork.
A no-expense-spared restoration was kicked off in March of 2007, and, in the years since, roughly $600,000 worth of work, documented by receipts, has been performed. The original Fiat 8V Supersonic prototype, owned by Paul Lazarous, was used as a guide throughout the restoration process, with Lazarous Engineering performing the bulk of the mechanical work. The net result is a car as close to its as-constructed state as possible, and Bonhams predicts a selling price between $1.8 and $2.4 million when the car crosses the stage at its Quail Lodge sale.

Rare cat spotted in Maine: a 1968 Mercury Cougar XR-7 GT-E with a 428 Cobra Jet and a four-speed
Win Rittall's 1968 Mercury Cougar XR-7 GT-E. Photos by Russ Rocknak, courtesy of Owls Head Transportation Museum.
In 1968, the highest-performance Mercury Cougar was the 427-powered Cougar GT-E. Just 357 of this single-year model were built, each with the three-speed Merc-O-Matic transmission, a disappointment for those who preferred to row their own gears. In May of 1968, however, production changed to the 428 Cobra Jet V-8, which included the Top Loader four-speed manual as an available option. A mere 37 Cougar GT-Es were built with this engine, and only three of these came with a manual transmission; next month, at the Owls Head Transportation Museum's 2015 Auto Auction, a 1968 Mercury Cougar XR-7 GT-E with the 428 and a four-speed will cross the stage, one of two such cars known to remain.
Eugene Rittall learned of the Mercury Cougar GT-E from a most unlikely source: the February 1968 issue of Playboy magazine, which featured an article entitled "Playboy's Guide to Detroit's Sporty and Special Cars." Captivated by the Augusta Green Cougar and in search of a muscle car that would stand out from the herd, Eugene traveled to several Mercury dealers before finding a knowledgeable sales rep at Park Motor Mart in Auburn, Maine. Though he really wanted a four-speed, Eugene placed an order for a Merc-O-Matic equipped 427, in the very same shade of green, and put down a $400 cash deposit.
Shortly after, he received a call from his sales rep, advising him that a mid-year production change for the Cougar GT-E was in the works. With the new 428 Cobra Jet came an available four-speed manual, so without hesitation, Eugene canceled his original order and signed a new one for a stick-shift equipped car.
It would be another four months before Eugene took delivery of his Cougar, ordered with the GTE package (which included the big-block V-8; Super Competition handling package; power front disc brakes; power steering; unique grille and taillamp panel; dual exhaust with quad chrome tips; two-tone paint (all with Argent lower); special 7.0 Litre GT-E badging; styled steel wheels; Power-dome hood; unique body side moldings; and bright engine dress kit); the Traction-Lok differential with 3.91 gearing; and the sports console with clock and AM radio. With options, the Cougar priced out at $4,899.95, enough to buy a reasonably well-optioned 1968 Corvette.
By all accounts, the car was a handful to drive, and Eugene never parted with the keys, much to his brother Win's dismay. Though rated at 340 horsepower for insurance purposes, the 428 Cobra Jet was said to actually produce close to the 427's rated output of 390 hp. Driving the GT-E, then, was reserved for fair weather, and by 1978, the last year the car was registered, just 45,000 miles had rolled beneath the Cougar's wheels.
The car sat in storage until 1996, when Eugene was contacted by Jim Pinkerton, Cougar GT-E Registrar. At the time just one four-speed GT-E, then owned by Pinkerton himself, was known to remain, so word of a possible second was big news within the community. After a lengthy dialogue, Eugene allowed Jim to come to Maine and inspect his car, on the condition that it was kept off the GT-E registry. Verified authentic, the car remained shrouded in secrecy until Eugene's death in 2002.
The Cougar then passed down to Eugene's brother, Win, who began working on a refurbishment of the car in 2004, after relocating back to Maine from Virginia. Critical items, such as the tires, brake lines, water pump and radiator, were swapped on an as-needed basis, with Win retaining 14 boxes of parts for the car's next owner. His goal was never to restore the car, which had far too much family history to alter, but rather to make it a reliable driver for regional shows and weekend drives.
Win still refers to the GT-E as "my brother's old Cougar," and he describes its current state as a "good 20-foot car." The paint is thin in spots, but mostly original, with the few exceptions being the right front fender and rear quarter panel, where mismatched color (and accompanying body shop receipts) speak of minor transgressions under Eugene's ownership. Mileage remains low, with 54,517 currently showing on the car's odometer.
When asked "why now" in regards to the sale of the car, Win grew pensive. He and his wife have both topped 75, and their health isn't what it used to be. Getting into and out of the car isn't as enjoyable as it was 10 years ago, and a car with just shy of 400 horsepower on tap, combined with 3.91 gears, requires a deft touch on the throttle and steering wheel. Win's enjoyed the Cougar, and recognizes it as part of the family, but also accepts that it's time someone else gets a chance to appreciate it.
Given the car's exclusivity, originality and well-documented single-family ownership, it would be reasonable to expect a selling price well into the mid six-figures. Mercury Cougars are not Yenko Camaros, L88 Corvettes or Hemi 'Cudas, however, and Owls Head is projecting a selling price between $120,000 and $160,000 when the car crosses the auction block on August 22.

Zora's baby, the CERV I, started every mid-engine Corvette rumor in the last 50-plus years

Did he plan to take it racing? Did he plan to use it as a testbed for exotic materials? Or did Zora Arkus-Duntov have something else in mind when he laid out the mid-engine CERV I experimental car? Whatever his intentions, he set off decades of rumors that the next generation of the Corvette would follow in that configuration, and now that one-off 200-MPH racer has been slated for auction this fall.
Conceived after encountering problems with the Corvette SS while at Sebring in 1957, the open-wheel mid-engine Chevrolet Engineering Research Vehicle ostensibly was to serve as a dual-purpose race car: Duntov reportedly specified its 96-inch wheelbase and 56-inch track width with the Indianapolis 500 in mind, and he also seemed determined to compete with the CERV at Pikes Peak.
However, with GM's racing ban still in place in the late 1950s, Duntov needed a better reason than racing or "because I said so" to get official approval for the car. For that reason – and to see just how light he could get the car – he had it built with a 125-pound chromium-molybdenum steel tubular space frame, an 80-pound two-layer fiberglass body, and a 350-pound aluminum small-block V-8 engine with magnesium components. Total weight came in at 1,450 pounds dry. The mid-engine design would also explore the performance capabilities of transaxles, which were then coming into vogue at GM, as well as leaf-sprung independent rear suspensions, which Duntov eyed for the second-generation Corvette.
According to Karl Ludvigsen's Corvette: America's Star-Spangled Sports Car, Chevrolet officially considered the car "a research tool for Chevrolet's continuous investigations into automotive ride and handling phenomena under the most realistic conditions," though Ludvigsen noted that Duntov and his crew would swing wildly from objective to objective with the car through its development. "Somehow it survived these vicissitudes to keep alive the concept of exciting cars at Chevrolet and to serve as a vital link between the racing Corvette SS of 1957 and the Corvette Sting Ray of 1963."
Assisting Duntov were engineers Harold Krieger and Walt Zetye and designers Larry Shinoda and Tony Lapine. In less than nine months, they completed the car and debuted it privately at Pikes Peak, where Duntov subjected it to dozens of runs up a section of the auto road, then publicly in November at the Riverside Grand Prix, where Duntov shared driving privileges with Dan Gurney and Stirling Moss.
With its original all-aluminum and fuel-injected 353-hp, 283-cu.in. V-8, Duntov could break 170 MPH in CERV, but he wanted more power to course through its four-speed transaxle. Over the next four years, Duntov and his crew experimented with as many as six more engines, including a 500-hp twin-turbocharged and fuel-injected version, a 420-hp supercharged version, and the naturally aspirated Hilborn cross-ram fuel-injected 377-cu.in. version currently powering it. The latter powered CERV to its fastest recorded speed: 206 MPH at GM's Milford Proving Grounds.
While Duntov discontinued CERV's development in about 1964 to focus on CERV II, Chevrolet kept it around until 1972, when it donated the car to Briggs Cunningham's museum. Miles Collier then bought it and CERV II from Cunningham in 1986 and eventually split the two apart, selling the latter to collector John Moores and the first CERV to Mike Yager of Mid America Motorworks.
Yager, who displayed CERV I in his MY Garage Museum, has recently put a number of cars from his collection up for sale, including almost a dozen this past May at the Mecum Indianapolis auction. At the time, he said that the cars he's putting up for sale are mostly race cars or duplicates. "We're repositioning a bunch of cars in the collection, trying to get more unique and one-off Corvettes," he said. "There's a few cars that I'd still like to own and a few less buildings that I'd like to fill."
The CERV I, which will cross the block at RM Sotheby's Monterey auction, is estimated to sell for $1.3 million to $2 million. In October of 2013, the CERV II sold at RM's Art of the Automobile auction for $1 million against a pre-auction estimate of $1.3 million to $1.8 million. Other cars that Yager has consigned to the same auction include the 1968 NART No. 4 Le Mans L88 Corvette and the 1964 Corvette coupe built as a styling exercise for Bunkie Knudsen.
RM Sotheby's Monterey auction will take place August 13-15 at the Portola Hotel & Spa and Monterey Conference Center. For more information, visit RMAuctions.com.
UPDATE (10.July 2015): Jim and Chester's Garage just posted this photo of Zora in the CERV at Pikes Peak. Check out the chunky tires on the back.
Speed, beauty and style – the "Eyston's Dancing Daughters" MG PA Le Mans racer
1934 MG PA chassis 1711. Photos by Tim Scott, courtesy RM Sotheby's.
Seeking to put the brand into the media spotlight, MG announced a bold move for the 1935 running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Under the guidance of Captain George Eyston, the factory would enter three cars in the grueling endurance event, each driven by accomplished (and, perhaps not coincidentally, beautiful) female racers of the day. Eight decades on, just one of these team cars remains wearing its original body, and on September 7, chassis PA/1711, the 1934 MG PA once driven by Joan Richmond and Barbara Simpson to a 24th place finish at Le Mans will cross the auction stage in London.
Eyston was, by this time, both a hero of the First World War and an accomplished MG racer in his own right. He also held a high-speed endurance record, and in 1937 displaced Malcolm Campbell's Blue Bird from the top of the land speed record rankings with his record-setting run in the Thunderbolt. In other words, Eyston's reputation was that of a man who could accomplish anything he set his mind to, and for 1935 he was tasked with producing a respectable result from a team dubbed "Eyston's Dancing Daughters" by the media.
Each car to be used for the race was carefully prepared at Abingdon, and period records show that 205 hours went into the building of each identical MG. To save weight, the cars were fitted with aluminum cycle fenders, an aluminum hood, and a cut-down aero windshield for the driver. Racing wheels were fitted, and the luggage area was modified to accommodate the required spare tires. To increase durability, stone guards were used on headlamps and radiator, and a second fuel pump was added.
Under the hood (bonnet, actually), the inline-four engine was blueprinted, fitted with racing-spec valves and springs and topped with a polished cylinder head. A lightened flywheel aided acceleration, while a four-speed manual transmission sent the power to the live rear axle. The front axle was solid, and both were suspended by semi-elliptical leaf springs. Mechanical drum brakes on all four corners provided the stopping power.

Joining Richmond and Simpson on the team were Doreen Evans and Barbara Skinner, driving car number 55; and Margaret Allan and Colleen Eaton, driving car number 57. As the hours on the Circuit de la Sarthe went by, it became apparent that all three cars would not only finish the race, but do so in a rather respectable position given the modest output of the MG's 847-cc engine. Though the cars were originally supposed to cross the finish line in numerical order, it was the number 56 car of Richmond and Simpson that took the checkered flag first, followed sequentially by the cars of Evans and Skinner and Allan and Eaton.
The team's 24th, 25th and 26th place finish was good enough to put it in the running for the 1936 Biennial Cup, but MG's racing department was shuttered by William Morris (Lord Nuffield) before preparation began for the 1936 event. It was a moot point anyway, since labor strikes in France caused the cancellation of the 1936 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Following the 1935 race, two of the team cars (including chassis PA/1711, the car to be offered in London) were equipped with superchargers and used in hill-climb events, while the third was sold off to a privateer racer and later reportedly destroyed. Miles Collier, who attended the 1935 24 Hours of Le Mans and recalled the MGs as "beautifully prepared indeed," later acquired chassis PA/1667, the second supercharged car, and raced it in the U.S. as "Leonidis." A 1937 road accident forced a rebody, and Leonidis today wears an aerodynamic body crafted by John Oliveau.
Chassis PA/1711 has a known and documented ownership history, and the car remained in a single collection for three and a half decades. Last restored in 1995, it crossed the auction stage at a 2010 RM Auctions event in London, selling for £78,400 (then the equivalent of approximately $124,500). This time, RM Sotheby's predicts a selling price between £95,000 and £120,000 (approximately $150,000-$190,000).

"Crash wagon" Thunderbird made flying in and out of Las Vegas safer
Photos by Jeremy Cliff, courtesy RM Sotheby's.
Sure, Howard Hughes once owned the 1956 Ford Thunderbird that will head to auction in Michigan later this month, but Howard Hughes owned a lot of cars. What sets this one apart from other 'Birds, rather, is its unique role as a "crash wagon" for what is now one of America's busiest airports.
Admittedly, McCarran Field in Las Vegas didn't see nearly the same volume of traffic in the mid-Fifties as McCarran International Airport does today: At the time, an average of about 33 flights departed the tiny airport each day. But the airport still needed all the same basic services that larger airports need, including a crash tender. Peg and George Crockett, who ran the airport that George established in 1941 and sold to Clark County seven years later, used a traditional fire truck but decided to supplement it with something a little faster and flashier.
From the factory, the 1956 Thunderbird (VIN P6FH291216), one of more than 15,000 built that year, seemed rather typical: 225hp 312-cu.in. Y-block V-8, Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission, and Fiesta Red paint. To it, however, the Crocketts added windshield-mounted spotlights, an emergency radio, and pressure tanks for fire retardant mounted just behind the seat. Lighter and more agile than the fire truck, the Thunderbird could thus get to crashes quicker and gain control of the emergency before the truck could arrive.
It wasn't just for show, either: Airport Journals related a story that Darrell Bradford, the assistant manager of Crockett's Alamo Airways, told in which he credited the Thunderbird with saving 44 lives after a TWA flight bound for San Francisco crashed just after takeoff. A fire had started from a leaking fuel cell, but Crockett sped after in the Thunderbird and put out the flames before they could spread to the fuselage.
"If the T-Bird hadn't taken us to the scene, there might possibly have been 44 charred bodies," Bradford said. "All in all, the T-Bird more than paid for itself on that one occasion."
Along with its life-saving role, the Thunderbird also assisted with a flight endurance record that stands to this day. In December 1958, the Hacienda Hotel sponsored an endurance flight in a Cessna 172 that required the use of a specially modified fuel truck that Crockett supplied. When the fuel truck broke down partway through the 64-day flight, Crockett substituted the Thunderbird, which was able to keep up with the Cessna while Crockett hoisted five-gallon fuel cans up to the plane.
By 1968 the Crocketts decided to get out of the fixed-base operator business and thus sold Alamo Airways to Hughes's Hughes Tool Company, the Thunderbird included. Hughes's personal pilot, John Seymore, bought the Thunderbird several years later. It then passed through a few more hands until 2006, when the restored Thunderbird – stripped of its crash wagon equipment – sold at Barrett-Jackson's Scottsdale auction for $88,000.
(A replica of the Thunderbird with its crash wagon equipment was built in the 1990s and installed in the Aviation Heritage Museum in McCarran in 1997.)
Current owner Ochsner Automobiles has had the Crockett Thunderbird for sale for at least the last three years with an asking price of $200,000. RM Sotheby's, which will offer the Thunderbird at its Motor City auction, estimates that the car will sell for $60,000 to $75,000.
The RM Sotheby's Motor City auction will take place July 25 at the Inn at St. John's in Plymouth, Michigan. For more information, visit RMAuctions.com.
UPDATE (27.July): The Thunderbird sold for a fee-inclusive price of $52,250.
New competition-car-only auction to tie in with Silverstone Classic

Each July, the Silverstone Classic draws car fans from throughout Europe to Britain's Silverstone circuit for three days of car shows, vintage racing and live music. That makes it the perfect venue for a classic car auction, and this year, Silverstone Auctions will be presenting both a conventional sale and a second auction devoted entirely to competition cars.
Chronologically speaking, the lots to be offered stretch from a 1953 Turner 1.5-liter sports racer to a 2014 Lotus Evora 3.4 V6 GTS, and span every type of series from open-wheel formula cars through endurance racers and rally cars. A few are recreations or unraced prototypes, but most come with extensive competition histories, both in-period and in contemporary vintage series.
A March 783 raced by future F1 World Champion Nigel Mansell in 1978.
Some have ties to well-known drivers, like the 1978 March 783 campaigned by Nigel Mansell during the 1978 British Formula Three season. Mansell would finish 19th in the points that year, but his demonstrated ability as a test driver for the Lotus team earned him three starts during the 1980 season. Each ended in disappointment (with a cockpit fire, an engine failure and an accident in qualifying), but Colin Chapman believed Mansell showed flashes of brilliance in the cockpit. He was correct; in 1992, Mansell captured the F1 championship while driving for Canon Williams Renault. Remarkably, he left F1 the following year, opting instead to drive for Newman-Haas in the U.S. CART series, where he delivered the series championship to the team in his rookie year.
The Osella Alfa Romeo F1 car raced by Piercarlo Ghinzani in 1983.
The formula cars of Italian driver Piercarlo Ghinzani will be crossing the block as well, including two March-Toyota Formula Three cars and three Formula 1 cars, driven by Ghinzani during the 1983, 1985 and 1986 seasons. In 1983, driving for Osella Squadra Corse, Ghinzani qualified for just the Austrian Grand Prix, where he started 25th and finished 11th in his Alfa Romeo powered Osella. Ghinzani's luck improved slightly for 1985, but in mid-season he left the underfunded Osella team for the equally underfunded Toleman team; the car offered here retired early in all five races entered.
Ghinzani's 1985 Toleman Benetton F1 car.
For 1986, Ghinzani was back with Osella Squadra Corsa, and the car offered in Silverstone retired early in 14 of the season's 16 races, failing to qualify for the Monaco Grand Prix and delivering an 11th place finish in Austria. None of these results should reflect poorly on Ghinzani as a driver; instead they paint a picture of a time when those with modest budgets could run in Formula 1, albeit without expectations of success.
A 1979 Group One Ford Capri once raced by Gordon Spice (of Spice Engineering fame).
None of the cars to be offered in Silverstone are likely headed to a private collection or even limited-access museum. Instead, these are billed as competition cars with current paperwork, likely to be seen on the track at future Silverstone Classics.
The competition car sale will be held on Thursday, July 23, with the classic car auction following on Saturday, July 25. For more information on the upcoming sales, visit SilverstoneAuctions.com.
Vintage Airstream that once rode the rails sells for $200,000 in Denver
1962 Western Pacific Airstream. Photos courtesy Mecum Auctions, unless otherwise noted.
Airstream has earned a reputation for building travel trailers long on luxury and style, but few know that the company occasionally constructed utilitarian variants for industrial customers. In 1962, Airstream was asked to build 10 trailers, each 40 feet in length, to serve as housing for Western Pacific Railroad foremen and as a galley for railroad crew. Last weekend, one of these 1962 Western Pacific Airstream trailers, now restored to a far more luxurious standard, sold in Denver for $200,000, cracking into the sale's top-10.
For road-going use, Airstream's longest commercially available product topped out at 30 feet in 1962. Instead of re-engineering a new trailer for such a modest production run, Airstream opted to construct a 40-foot trailer by combining two 20-foot models. Airstream aficionados will note that this rig has a slightly different shape than most, thanks to the absence of a conventional tail section.
Western Pacific's request was unusual, as most railroads relied upon passenger rolling stock to provide housing and dining facilities for railroad employees. As a small carrier with declining ridership, Western Pacific needed to keep every last passenger car in service, so a cheaper alternative was to construct the Airstreams and anchor them atop flatcars. On the road, the Airstream's long overhang and overall length made it difficult to tow, but mounted atop a railroad car, neither factor was a consideration.
Inside, as Airstream Life pointed out in a 2012 article, the trailers were built solely to a price point. Floors were bare wood, cabinets were constructed of plywood, and no effort was made to conceal plumbing or wiring. Readily available diesel fuel was used to fire the rig's furnace, and to heat the stove for cooking. Three doors were present on the trailer's right side, including one for the crew to access the dining area, one for the foreman's private quarters and one for the furnace room.
Airstream 6002 traveled the rails in Utah and Nevada until 1983, when the Western Pacific Railroad was acquired by the Union Pacific Railroad. Then surplus inventory, two of the Airstreams were donated to railroad museums, two had previously been destroyed in accidents and the remaining six were sold at auction.
Airstream 6002 spent its first retirement as a storage shed, until located by a buyer in search of a unique vacation home. A deal to acquire the Western Pacific Airstream was struck, and Timeless Travel Trailers was tasked with repurposing the oversize vintage trailer into a mid-century modern style abode, with far more luxury than the rig's original configuration.
Its next owner will need to find a semi-permanent location for the trailer, as it's not road legal and was sold on a bill of sale only. There's work remaining before it can be used as a temporary residence, too; while the Airstream comes complete with heating and air conditioning, it lacks a hot water heater and will need to be hooked to permanent (or semi-permanent, given its history) water and sewer lines.

Other vehicles in the top-10 included a 2012 Lamborghini Aventador, which sold for $285,000; a 1969 Pontiac Trans Am Ram Air IV, which sold for $180,000; a 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster, which sold for $165,000; a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air hardtop restomod, which sold for $160,000; a 1967 Shelby G.T. 350 fastback, which sold for $150,000; a 1966 Chevrolet Corvette restomod, which sold for $135,000; a 1967 Porsche 911S Targa, which sold for $130,000; a 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge, which sold for $115,000; and a 1969 Oldsmobile Hurst/Olds, which sold for $110,000.
1961 Buick Invicta bubble top.
More affordable (but no less interesting) lots included a 1966 Ford Thunderbird, which sold for $3,500; a 1971 Buick Riviera GS, which sold for $4,500; a 1965 Dodge Dart GT, which sold for $5,000; a 1961 Ford Falcon, which sold for $7,500; a 1925 Chevrolet Superior, which sold for $7,500; a 1951 Dodge M37 pickup, which sold for $8,000; a 1949 Cadillac Fleetwood, which sold for $8,000; a 1950 Chrysler Windsor Newport, which sold for $9,000; a 1967 Ford Galaxie 500 convertible, which sold for $9,000; and a 1961 Buick Invicta bubble top, which sold for $9,250.

One of 24 built by Ford, 1986 RS200 Evolution heads to auction
1986 Ford RS200 Evolution. Photos by Brian Henniker, courtesy Gooding & Company.
Ford built 146 RS200 models before the FIA pulled the plug on Group B rallying, and of these, just 24 were converted by the factory into higher-performance Evolution trim. Able to run with (and often, leave behind) more prestigious and expensive supercars of the day, the RS200 Evolution remains a sought-after collectible among Ford performance enthusiasts, especially those with a passion for WRC history. In August, chassis 106, a 1986 Ford RS200 Evolution and one of the original 20 cars upgraded by Ford, heads to auction in Pebble Beach.
Looking for a competitive edge in the FIA's fearsome Group B rally class, Ford Motorsport started with a clean sheet of paper to design the RS200. With an engine amidships and power sent to all four wheels, the RS200 could have been a contender for Group B dominance, even against the Audi Sport Quattro S1 and the Lancia Delta S4. In homologation form, the 1.8-liter turbocharged four was rated at 450 horsepower in race trim, while the diminutive car's plastic and fiberglass body (designed by Ghia) helped keep weight to around 2,300 pounds.
The RS200 made its debut appearance at the 36th International Swedish Rally, the second race of the 1986 season. Driver Kalle Grundel and co-driver Terry Harryman delivered a podium finish, but that proved to be the sole highlight of the car's 1986 season (and, in fact, its Group B career). At the next event, Rally de Portugal, Ford factory driver Joaquim Santos lost control of his RS200 in a corner, killing three spectators and injuring over 30 more. The incident prompted factory teams to withdraw from the race, but more significantly, it signaled the beginning of the end of Group B, which would be phased out at the end of the 1986 season. The cars had proven to be too fast to be safe.
That left Ford with ample RS200s under construction, along with parts and plans to build the higher-performance Evolution variants. Originally, late production chassis numbers 201-220 were to have been built in Evolution trim, but the demise of Group B forced Ford to pull assembled RS200s from the warehouse for conversion. Instead of sequential chassis numbers, Ford used chassis 012, 070, 071, 081, 083, 084, 086, 087, 096, 097, 098, 099, 101, 105, 106, 145, 146, 153, 168 and 174 in constructing the first 20 Evolution models; later, chassis 020, 089, 161 and 182 would be converted to Evolution specifications as well, and these cars are often referred to as "E2″ models.
Evolution models received a 2.1-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, rated at a minimum of 600 horsepower in "stock" trim, though the use of larger turbos, bigger intercoolers, a variable-boost controller and updated tuning could produce outputs as high as 900 horsepower. Torque could be split three different ways, including 100-percent rear; 63-percent rear and 37-percent front; and 50:50, depending upon road conditions and driver preference. Performance of Evolution models, even in stock form, was impressive, with the run from 0-60 MPH taking just three seconds and the run from 0-100 MPH taking a mere five.
Chassis 106 was delivered to its first owner, Californian Frank Profera, in May of 1989. Meant as both a track car and a street car, the Evolution received a full interior and power steering, a feature exceptionally rare on RS200s. Unsatisfied with the car's racing-spec AP brakes in street driving, Profera reportedly had special brake pads developed that could stand up to the rigors of track use, while still providing adequate stopping power when cold. Though documentation is spotty, chassis 106 is said to have turned a lap time of 1:17 at California's Willow Springs, making it over one and a half seconds quicker around the course than the IMSA GTO lap record.
Chassis 106 later crossed the Atlantic, passing through a few owners in Great Britain. In 2005, the car sold at a U.K. auction for the bargain price of £54,000 (then the equivalent of $97,725), against a pre-auction estimate of £75,000 ($135,729), and somewhere along the line the car's color was changed from yellow to white. As of 2009, chassis 206 was back in North America, reportedly owned by a Canadian enthusiast.
Gooding & Company is predicting a selling price between $500,000 and $750,000 when the car crosses the stage at Pebble Beach this August. For additional information on the California auction, visit GoodingCo.com.

PHT Extra: How badly did the Jackets blow it? Are the Avs in trouble?
Apr 22, 2014, 4:10 PM EDT
Short answers: "Pretty badly" and "hmmm…kinda."
You should probably just click play and watch.
- avfanforlife - Apr 22, 2014 at 4:47 PM
"AV's in trouble?" It was 1 game! Was the series supposed to be a sweep? Now ask if the Kings are in trouble.
- antkowiak666 - Apr 22, 2014 at 5:22 PM
the ONLY reason you have two wins is because of Varly.(also could be said the only reason you made the playoffs as well).
- kopy - Apr 22, 2014 at 5:30 PM
And the Wild are one measly game from knotting it up. The Avalanche are still the favorites to win the series, and rightfully so, but they looked awful last night (except for Varlamov).
- purpleguy - Apr 22, 2014 at 7:41 PM
The Avs still hold the cards — unfortunately.
- getadealdonealready - Apr 22, 2014 at 4:53 PM
I wouldn't say Avs are in trouble, however they look like a young talented team. One minute they show their skill and high ceiling, but at times look very beatable. They look like a team with a lot of youngsters in the lineup. If the Wild can win on Thursday it is going to be a fun series to watch!
- csilojohnson - Apr 22, 2014 at 5:25 PM
Should post these on a Utube channel so people with phones made prior 2014 can watch.
Avs in trouble!? LA and Tampa anyone?
- joey4id - Apr 22, 2014 at 5:40 PM
Goalie Bob missed a great opportunity to prove his worth by shutting the door. "Pretty badly" is about right.
By no means are the Avs in trouble. They are part of the top 3 best coached teams in the league, and will be able to rise to the occasion no doubt. Won't be easy, but not in trouble.
- southstands1 - Apr 22, 2014 at 6:30 PM
The Avalanche are just fine. As a Colorado fan, I didn't expect a sweep of the Wild, though it would have been nice!
In truth, Darcy Kuemper played a heck of a game as did the rest of the Minnesota Wild. Sadly, the actions of Matt Cooke overshadowed that fact. That event aside, Minnesota played a very controlled hockey game and made the Avalanche look pedestrian in the process. My hats off to the Wild!
That said, I think Colorado bounces back just fine. Patrick Roy knows the score and has been here plenty of times. I suspect a very dialed in and focused team on the ice for game four. It's in no way a gimmie as Kuemper has been terrific, but I think he'll face more than 22 shots tomorrow night.
Go Avs!
- purpleguy - Apr 22, 2014 at 7:44 PM
Nice, well reasoned post. I wonder if you're one of the guys I bought a beer for last night? The Avs fans I sat next to were pretty good guys (although I still hope they go home bummed Thursday night). Now, as to the Hawks fans last year. . . . .
