1973 VOLKSWAGEN SUPER BEETLE
CONVERTIBLE
Serial Number 153299407

​

FUN! FUN! FUN! Imagine all the smiles and thumbs up you will get cruising down the boulevard in this 1973 Phoenix Red Volkswagen Super Beetle convertible. Powered by a rear-mounted air cooled 1600 cc 4 cylinder engine with a 4 speed manual transmission, this Beetle is easy to drive and can keep up with modern day traffic. It will get 25 mpg city and 28 mpg highway, with a top speed of 90 mph.

​

The car is a real eye catcher with its shiny red paint, chrome wheels and hubcaps. It is an older restoration, has been repainted red (not the original color) and although shiny, has accumulated some chips. The chrome is excellent and the interior is in good condition. The car starts easily and runs, shifts, steers and handles well. The five digit odometer reads 30,556 miles.

 

This Beetle just had a major service at Munk’s Motors in Waterford, MI, one of the best respected independent VW shops in the Midwest. At that time a leaking brake fluid reservoir was cleaned and hoses were replaced. To improve starting and cold weather performance, the starter/battery cable and two ground cables were replaced as well as the vacuum hose on the left intake manifold. The distributor was replaced and timing reset. The inoperative right windshield wiper was repaired and the accelerator cable was adjusted. Various other adjustments were performed as well, and the car is now ready for many miles and smiles.

1979 Porsche 924

Serial No. 9249207175

4-cyl. 1984cc/110 hp Bosch FI Engine

5 speed Manual Transaxle

104,567 miles

 

Here is your entry level Porsche, a reasonably priced reliable German sports car. The 924 was the first front engine Porsche sold and was intended to replace the 914 as the brand's entry level model. They are known for their excellent handling and balance, and are still affordable. With fully galvanized bodies after 1977, the 924 can be a durable, simple, fun first Porsche. The remaining few good ones are considered worth seeking out.

 

Automotive journalist Rob Sass bought this very car in Seattle, WA in 2017, took it to the Porsche dealer there for new tires and brakes, then drove it 2,200 miles from Tacoma back to Ann Arbor. He then sold it to its current owner (he and his daughter have driven and cared for it since), then wrote articles about it, e.g., one excerpted here:

 

Why You Need to Buy a Porsche 924 Now

By Rob Sass, for Hagerty Media

26 October 2017

 

“You need to buy a Porsche 924 this week. Yes, a 924, the car that 9 out of 10 Porsche geeks will immediately finger as the worst Porsche of all time. The fact of the matter is, the 924 is actually not crap. Far from it. And in a sure sign of the end times, prices are starting to rise. ...I’d tell you to buy my 924 in splendid UPS brown (actually Mocha Schwarz), but immediately upon my arrival home, I was inundated with offers for it. I sold it to the upholstery and trim guy who rents space in the same building that the Hagerty content team calls home. He’s thrilled with it. You would have been, too.  …While you won’t be able to come within a 40-mile radius of Luftgekühlt (air cooled) in one, the woefully misunderstood 924 proved me and my (previous, critical NY Times) piece wrong. It is an ideal first classic.”

 

Here is what has been done to the car since then, and recently: new bushings, from shifter to transaxle; a new dash pad, sunroof latches, starter, battery and timing belt; the front valance panel has been repaired and it, and the bumper have been refinished. The driver’s seat and headliner have been repaired.

 

This 924 comes with a modern Kenwood 40W AM/FM/CD audio unit with removable face plate, its original tool kit, owner’s manual, and the original protective bag for the removable sunroof. With the entire bodyshell zinc coated and its west coast history, there is no rust. Overall, it’s a nice driver, ready for many miles and smiles by its new owner.

1999 Ferrari F355 F1 Spider

VIN: ZFFXR48A9X0116222

6,977 Miles

 

Ferrari introduced the F355 to the United States in 1995, and the car represented a substantial leap forward in performance and handling, compared to its already capable predecessor, the 348.  Produced from 1995 to 1999, the F355 employed a 3.5-liter, 5-valve-per-cylinder V8 engine rated at 380 hp, and has been considered to have one of the best exhaust notes Ferrari ever produced in a street car.  The convertible Spider version was introduced in 1996, and in 1997 a six-speed automated manual F1 paddle-shifted gearbox was introduced for the first time in any production Ferrari.  A total of only 11,165 Ferrari F355s were built during their 5-year production run, and they are considered one of the most classic and respected designs in Ferrari’s storied evolution.

 

Ferrari automobiles are known for their performance, as well as their beauty. The F355 is no exception, with 0-60 mph in 4.7 sec., the ¼ mile in 12.9 sec., and a top speed of 183 mph.

 

Available for the first time to the public is this pristine example, finished in Rosso Corsa (Racing Red) with a tan interior and black convertible top, it is one of only 1,127 F1 Spiders produced. This locally owned Ferrari has seen just 6,977 miles, and was originally sold new by Cauley Ferrari of West Bloomfield, Michigan.  Serviced by Cauley over the years, it has had one ownership change in 2016, going into a private collection until just recently, when made available for sale. 

 

This car offers the best of Ferrari’s last year of F355 Spider production, with special Scuderia fender shields and a Challenge rear grille.  The exterior paint is in excellent, near flawless condition, as is the interior leather.  The wheels and tires are in similar excellent condition.  It also has a 6-disc CD changer. Included with the car are factory literature, tool roll, service records, and two sets of keys.

1983 Mercedes-Benz 380SL (R107)

3.8L FI V8, 4-Speed Automatic Transmission

VIN: WDBBA45A5DB028092

113,262 Miles

 

In 1980, Mercedes-Benz revamped its SL lineup of sporting luxury convertibles with the introduction of the 380SL, a further development of the R107 chassis, which was first used in 1972 by the 350SL. With its heady mix of V-8 power, refined luxury, and sporty underpinnings, it was a very popular model during its run for the U.S. market.

 

Named for its 3.8-liter V-8, the 380SL received a new four-speed automatic transmission, which further enhanced distance driving. Suspension continued to be the same fully independent setup as in the earlier cars, and four-wheel disc brakes remained standard. The R107 was the first SL to receive a V8, and its smooth and torquey delivery is in keeping with the overall character of the car.

 

When I was in the automotive supplier industry, I got to go to Germany (beginning in the ‘70s), work with the auto engineers, see what these were made of, how they were made in Sindelfingen, get to understand the whole Mercedes-Benz character, reputation, and why they were just better.

 

This 380SL is a good one. It has a dark blue exterior with matching removable hard top, a blue soft top, and a tan leather interior. It is equipped with active seat belts, automatic climate control, and a modern stereo head unit with CD player. Its service records & receipts date back to June, 2004, with most done by the local dealer (Mercedes-Benz of Ann Arbor). Most brake components, water pump and more were replaced at 112 - 113k miles.

 

It has just recently received  new tires, new spark plugs, a fuel injector and a complete cleaning & polishing. As a result, it looks and runs great. A clean Carfax report is available on request, and a full car cover and windshield sun shade are included.

1987 PORSCHE 928 S4 TRACK CAR
VIN: WP0JB0922HS861215

​

Here is a rare opportunity to purchase a very well sorted track car that is an absolute monster on the race track, yet extremely reliable. The car has been extensively upgraded using only the best parts available without concern for the costs incurred. A Pro Charger D-1SC supercharger as well as many other engine modifications have been added, resulting in approximately 600 engine HP  and over 500 HP at the rear wheels - in a car that has been weight-reduced to just 3,000 pounds.

​

The resultant acceleration and speed are awesome. It’s not just the engine that has been upgraded. Significant modifications have been made to the body, chassis, suspension, steering, brakes, electrical, interior, wheels and tires. The end result is an extremely fast, safe and reliable track car capable of very low lap times, topped off with a state of the art data gathering system to help analyze your every movement on the track.

Two binders detailing the upgrades and including receipts are included. Also, a video of the car at speed at Waterford Hills Raceway is available on request.
