12 Hours of Sebring 1965 (Harry Hurst)
Under the supervision of Carroll Shelby, Ford brought two GT40s and four Cobra Daytona Coupes to challenge the Ferraris, Porsches, and Corvette Grand Sports. Drivers including Dan Gurney, Bruce McLaren, Mark Donohue, Graham Hill, Pedro Rodriguez, Ken Miles, and Phil Hill were ready to see who would take the checkered flag at the end of 12 grueling hours of racing. But Jim Hall, one of the most innovative race car designers of all time, had other ideas. He and his partner, Hap Sharp, had entered their radical sports racer, the Chaparral. The question on everyone’s mind was: “Could the fragile, but extremely fast, sports car go the distance?” And, more important, “What if it rains?”

Alfa Romeo & Mille Miglia Author: Andrea Curami
Alfa Romeo and the Mille Miglia are two names packed with fascination and legend, both for the prestige of the Brescian race and the epic feats of the drivers and the Portello-built cars on the roads of the unforgettable Italian marathon. No other marque can boast of competing in such a large number Mille Miglias, and especially not of such a series of successful results "collected" by Alfa Romeo in the celebrated Race of the Red Arrow. To tell this long and spectacular story of road racing at its best is the authoritative pen of Andrea Curami, who relives the long and distinguished career of Alfa Romeo at the Mille Miglia, all illustrated by rare archive pictures.

Automobiles Vanderveken (Belgium)
The Vanderveken Establishments were created at the end of the Second World War by Steve Grant, Annie and Louis Vanderveken. Located in Woluwé-St-Lambert in Brussels, they grow up quickly under the leadership of Annie Vanderveken, a great woman who knows what hard work is about and whose philosophy and life style inspired all her fellows. She quickly understands, during the difficult years of the after war reconstruction, that society is ruled by the principle of need. The will is often the spinal chord of the soul. Thus, Annie Vanderveken becomes a real character of Brussels's life. In the beginning, the Vanderveken establishments, in cooperation with Grant Motors from London, started collecting the useful material of British and American armies' vehicles. However the relationship with the British collaborators weakened and the Vandervekens decided to purchase and sell luxury and sports cars dating from the beginning of the century, to Belgian and British collectors. They use their Brussels's garage as their base for work, which is also specialized in the demolition and the recovery of used car parts. It's in this atmosphere that Annie's son, Paul Grant, emerged. During the seventies, under the leadership of Paul Grant, who acquired growing responsibilities in the family business, the Vandervekens decided to turn to selling collection cars and proposes a high-standard permanent catalogue of used cars in which many Belgian and foreign amateurs find their happiness. Today, Paul Grant is still on the lead of the family business, recently assisted by Laurent Dassel, his stepson. The Vanderveken Establishments are famous all over Belgium and also abroad which is the ultimate reward for their achievements.

Copley Motorcars (USA)
Copley Motorcars is an independent automobile dealer that specializes in
sportscars, classics and unique and interesting cars of all kinds.
Our business philosophy is simple: Offer an exceptional product, price it
market correctly, and make the transaction as easy and enjoyable as possible.
If we have a car you like and can structure the right deal for you, terrific!
If not, we'll try again on another day, maybe on another car. No pressure,
no hard feelings. After all...it's just a car. A fun car but, just a car.

One of the things that makes Copley Motorcars unique is our in-house rule:
We only sell the cars that we love ourselves, so we only deal in a limited
number of models...unique and hard-to-find. (You don't need us to help
you buy a Jeep Grand Cherokee, and unless it has been traded in to us,
you probably won't see a Lexus LS430 in our inventory either.) So, our
suppliers from around the U.S. only offer us the best of these fun cars.
We are constantly searching for these cars from private parties, other
dealers, collectors and, select sportscar auctions.


The criteria for our cars is simple also, and probably quite similar to
yours. The car must have a great appearance,(remember, first impressions,)
and be structurally sound. And if for any reason the previous owner has
missed a scheduled service, not to worry. Before delivery to you, all of
our cars are fully inspected and serviced by one of our well known specialist
garages for Land Rover, Mercedes, Ferrari, American and British sportscars
to ensure your new purchase is reliable and trouble free.


COTSWOLD COLLECTORS CAR STORAGE LTD (England)
MARTIN CHISHOLM COLLECTORS CARS LTD has started up a dedicated car storage facility, which is discreetly located in the rural area of Gloucestershire conveniently located for all major routes. There are excellent rail links with London and we are just over an hours drive away from Bristol, Birmingham and London Heathrow airports and within easy reach of the M5.All cars, including our basic storage programme, will be stored in a dehumidified atmosphere which removes moisture from the air.

Whilst your car is in storage you can rest assured that the security Cotswold Collectors Car Storage Ltd has put in place is, in our opinion, one of the most secure methods of alarm system signaling available. Cotswold Collectors Car Storage Ltd’s responsibilities are covered by full motor trade policies however your car must be insured for a minimum of fire and theft whilst with us in storage. We advise you to inform your insurance company that your vehicle is being stored with us. Alternatively insurance can be arranged with quotations on request. Please visit www.carstoring.com

Cunningham Sports Cars: American Racing Legends 1951-1955 Author: Karl Ludvisgen
Time magazine cover hero and Americas Cup yachtsman Briggs Cunningham cut a swathe through the post-war sports-racing scene with his magnificent Cunningham sports cars. He burst into view in 1951 with his Chrysler-powered C-2 sports-racers and in 1952 launched the production C-3, a Vignale-bodied car built as both a coupe and cabriolet. Some two dozen were made. The C-4R was his 1952 racer, still Chrysler-powered, which performed well at Le Mans and with Phil Walters and John Fitch was all but unbeatable in American racing.Radical with its solid-axle front end and colossal drum brakes, the C-5R of 1953 was a challenger to the Jaguars at Le Mans. In 1954 Cunningham raced a much-modified Ferrari with water-cooled brakes and in 1955 introduced his C-6R, beautifully engineered by Briggs Weaver and Offenhauser powered.

Fabulous unpublished pictures from the Ludvigsen Library show these great cars on the track and at rest. They carried the American flag at home and abroad with style and panache.Paperback - 10-1/4" x 8-1/2" - 128 pages - 121 b/w

Dean Jeffries: 50 Fabulous Years in Hot Rods, Racing & Film Author: Tom Cotter
An unassuming craftsman, legendary car builder Dean Jeffries has always preferred to let his creations speak for themselves. This book provides a rare, close-up look at the man, and the life, behind the Mantaray, the Monkeemobile, the Green Hornet's Black Beauty, and James Bond's moon buggy, among countless others. Drawing on extensive interviews with Jeffries, bestselling Motorbooks author Tom Cotter gives readers the inside story on how, with little more than determination, raw talent, and a high school education, Jeffries became such an extraordinary figure in the automotive world. Cotter details the multiple careers Jeffries mastered at once, from custom painting and pinstriping to metal shaping and design. The book offers Jeffries' own account of the circumstances behind the famous TV and movie cars that followed, as well as the relationships he enjoyed wi
