Le Mans 24 Hour Finisher: 1995 Callaway Corvette

What can we say about this Le Mans finishing Callaway powered Corvette? Anything American that has finished at Le Mans (11th place overall, not too shabby) is enticing in our books. Was 1 of 3, the seller claims the other two cars no longer exist (we’d like to see some documentation), now perhaps 1 of [...]

Le Mans History: Porsche Kremer CK5

We don’t think we can put it more eloquently than the folks at Coys UK, here’s how they introduced a Porsche Kremer CK5: The name Kremer is synonymous with Porsche in motor sport, in particular in endurance events such as the Le Mans 24 Hours, and during the 1970s and ’80s the Cologne-based race specialist’s [...]

Possible Ex-Works Racer: 1961 TVR Grantura Mk2

This TVR Grantura may be 1 of 4 Ex-Works or Ex-Factory Lightweight TVR race cars from the early 60′s. Grantura’s were the first TVR cars, the Series II was upgraded with a choice of 4 cylinder engines and standard disc brakes. If this history can be proven, which seems potentially possible, we think this TVR [...]

RM Auction Block: 1995 Ford GT90 Concept Car

January 24, 2009: We’re back from a great weekend in Scottsdale where we enjoyed watching the action at Barrett Jackson, RM Auctions and Gooding & Co.

Great Color and Stripe Delete: Midnight Blue 2005 Ford GT – 3,100 miles

Ford GT’s are really bad@ss sports cars. We’ve loved them since before Ford officially launched the GT, especially given it’s pedigree. One thing that’s annoyed us however, is the fact that so many of the GT’s came from the factory with ‘stripes.’ Historically, few original GT40′s where red/white, grey/grey or white/blue, but it seems like [...]

Daytona 24hr Winner and Le Mans History: 1990 Porsche 964 Carrera Cup

We know what you’re thinking, this 911 doesn’t look like anything too great. You’re right, cosmetically it’s not perfect, however it’s got a really cool history. It started off as a Carrera Cup car, of which we understand Porsche only built 25. It was then commissioned to race in the 1993 Daytona 24 hours, driven [...]
