1962 Ferrari 250GTE Police Car

With a glamorous past chasing Italian gangsters and its lights and siren still in working condition, who WOULDN'T want this 1962 Ferrari 250GTE? Chassis number 3999 was delivered to Rome’s Squadra Mobile in 1963. The highway police sold their original interceptor in 1972 via a public auction of army surplus. The Italian buyer, Alberto Cappelli, knew what he had and spent the next 40 years preserving its incredible originality. A 2+2 GTE isn't exactly a 250 GTO but this is the only private car still allowed to wear blue lights and siren in Italy.

A low-budget action movie called Poliziotto Sprint followed, which included a sequence with a 250GTE driving down the steps. Now the real star is for sale, offered by Girardo & Co in Milan. No word on price.

Celebrity status was acquired after a series of spectacular high-speed chases, including one that involved chasing a Citroën down the Spanish Steps next to the Trinità dei Monti church in Rome.

Supercar Blondie: poor girl drives supercars for a living

For those of us who drag ourselves to work every day, the daily grind of Alex Hirschi (Supercar Blondie) seems like something from a too pleasant dream.

“I’ve driven Ferrari 488 GTB, the 488 Spider, the Mclaren 570s and 540c, the Bentley GT3R, GT Speed and V8s, Mercedes AMG GTs, Lamborghini Huracan, and many others.” Grrrrrr says one who gets excited about the latest 'Lego' built ferrari, it being the closest thing to the real deal we can get our hands on. Hats off to Ms. Hirschi she worked for it. “I have used the opportunity of living in Dubai to create an account like this [Supercar Blondie]. It is amazing to live in a city where supercars are seen on a daily basis."

1970 Dodge Hemi Challenger R/T - $115k

1 of 287 Hemi Challenger R/T hardtops produced in 1970. Matching numbers 426/425 HP Hemi engine. Automatic transmission. Correct B5 Blue paint with V68 stripe delete. Black interior. Dual 4-barrel carburetors. Introduced in fall 1969 for the 1970 model year, the Challenger was one of two Chrysler E-body cars, the other being the Plymouth Barracuda. Chrysler intended the new Challenger as the most potent pony car ever and it was available with a number of trim and option levels.

The pony car segment was declining by the time the Challenger arrived. Sales fell dramatically after 1970. The Special Edition hardtop, available on either the base Challenger or on the R/T, added a number of features.

The Challenger R/T came with a Rallye instrument cluster that included a 150 mph (240 km/h) speedometer, an 8,000 rpm tachometer and an oil pressure gauge. A 1970 Hemi Challenger is a poster child for the most desirable cars from the muscle era. New, a fully optioned Challenger stickered for around $5,156.

A 1970 Dodge Hemi Challenger R/T made $290k in January. This example made $115k at Glendale.

1967 Shelby 427 S/C Cobra Roadster

1 of 27 original factory 427 S/C Cobras produced. 10,760 original miles. Professional restoration. CSX3042 is regarded as the most original and correct 427 S/C Cobra in existence. Every part on CSX3042 was original or NOS down to the smallest detail, including service items. CSX3042 retains its original magnesium Halibrand wheels and original factory installed Goodyear Bluestreak tires.

A clean, original, authentic Shelby Cobra is one of the most valuable American cars. Add the S/C “Semi-Competition” package and you have yourself a $2 million car. The few S/C models used competition chassis intended for racing. Being a racecar for the street, the Shelby 427 S/C Cobra was the fastest road-going car in the world.

To contain wider wheels and tires, the body swelled with menacing fender bulges, as if it could barely conceal the throbbing 500 hp being produced by the cast-iron 427 V-8 within. In 2005, CSX3042 underwent another professional restoration. In the world of 427 Street Cobras, the 29 factory S/C examples will always be regarded as the ultimate version. And in the world of 427 S/C Cobras, CSX3042 is the best there is. This 427 Cobra S/C made $2.8m in 2019 at Mecum's.

Shelby intended to race the 427 Cobra, and planned to produce 100 examples in competition trim.

In 2018 RM Sotheby's sold a 1966 Shelby 427 Cobra 'Semi-Competition' for $2.9m.

1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 Berlinetta - $2.9m high bid

Original unrestored with one repaint in the early 1970s. Refinished in Grigio Mahmoud. Original 3,286cc four-cam V-12 engine. Six Weber carburetors. 5-speed manual gearbox. Front and rear disc brakes. Saddle Tan interior. Original glass and lenses. The correct mileage is believed to be just under 15,000 km. Late in 1964, Ferrari introduced two new cars, the 275 GTB and 275 GT Spyder on similar chassis.

For the first time a Ferrari GT incorporated independent suspension at all four corners. The 275 also had 4-wheel disc brakes and an all-new rear suspension.

The 275 series employed the final development of the short block V-12 engine designed by Gioacchino Colombo in 1947. It delivered 280 hp and was available with three Weber downdraft carburetors in standard form, with six as an option. Both the GTB and GTS utilized an all-synchronized 5-speed gearbox mounted at the rear in transaxle. The 275 GTB was faster than its predecessors and more comfortable.

Engine development continued in the 275 GTB, and in 1966 it received a new version of the 3.3L V-12 engine with two overhead cams, dry-sump lubrication, and 300 HP. The new designation: 275 GTB/4. Chassis No. 10717 retains its original matching engine and is original and unrestored but for a single repaint in Grigio Mahmoud in the early 1970s.

The car failed to change hands on a high bid of $ 2.9m at Mecum.

1970 Plymouth Superbird - $203k

21,838 original miles. Original engine, transmission and interior. Four-owner car. Original 440/375 HP V-8 engine. Original 4-speed manual transmission. Pistol Grip shifter. Alpine White exterior. Black vinyl top. Original Black interior. Bucket seats. AM radio. Road Runner Superbird graphics. The U-code 440/375 HP V-8 Super Commando engine is backed by its original 4-speed manual transmission.

A Road Runner on steroids, the Superbird was Plymouth’s way of bringing a gun to a knife fight. The Road Runner had been named the 1969 Motor Trend Car of the Year, and the aero-styling learned from the Charger Daytona program was applied to a slightly redesigned Road Runner shell for the 1970 model season.

Benefitting from a comprehensive restoration, the Superbird is considered the highlight of any serious collection of muscle cars and this example demands respect.

The car appeared at Mecum and blew past it's estimate of $125k to $150k.
