At the end of 1958, when many race car designers were moving towards a rear-engined layout, Maserati developed this frontengined, 2-liter prototype Tipo 60. In May 1959 this car (chassis 2451) was tested for the first time by chief mechanic Guerino Bertocchi on the road between Modena and Verona. Stirling Moss was influential in the Tipo 60’s fine-tuning, driving it at Modena before breaking the 2-liter lap record with it at the Nürburgring. It first raced at Rouen in July, where Moss drove it to victory, defeating a large grid of Type 15 Lotuses. At the end of 1959, the car’s engine was enlarged to 3 liters, it was renamed Tipo 61, and was sold to Lloyd “Lucky” Casner for his Camoradi team. The Tipo 61 was driven by both Dan Gurney and Carroll Shelby at the Bahamas Speed Week and later at Sebring and the Targa Florio before being rebodied with this ultra-streamlined windscreen and extra-long tail for the gruelling 24 Hours of Le Mans. It retired from racing at the end of 1963.

Mercedes 70 HP Vanvooren Seven 
Passenger Touring 1911 Pebble Beach 
Concours 2016

Mercedes 70 HP Vanvooren Seven Passenger Touring 1911
Samuel Pomeroy Colt, nephew of Sam Colt, ordered this Mercedes—a seven passenger touring body by Vanvooren built on a 139-inch wheelbase with a powerful 9.8-liter, T-head, 4-cylinder engine delivering 70 hp. To slow the car, brakes are on each of the two transmission shafts as well as each of the wood-spoked, 27-inch rear wheels. Parisian dealer Societé Mercedes charged Colt 32,500 francs for the car, and it soon became his favorite. At the start of the Great War, Colt fled France and the Mercedes was confiscated by the French army and used by several senior officers. After the war, the car was shipped to Colt in Bristol, Rhode Island, where it stayed long after Colt’s death in 1921. The car passed from the estate to two pioneer AAA racers before finding its way to B. Scott Isquick, who spent over 12,000 hours restoring it.

Mercedes-Benz 300SL Coupe sn-198043-6500015 1956
This is one of only 29 alloy-bodied 300SL “Gullwing” Coupe bodies hand built in the racing department of Mercedes-Benz in Untertürkheim, Germany, before being transported to the Sindelfingen factory where the complete cars were assembled. This Gullwing (chassis 198043-6500015) is the only alloy car with the original combination of Elephant Ivory paint, red tartan gabardine upholstered seats and cream trim. It also has the original highperformance specification NSL 2996-cc straight-6 engine that was fitted to only 4 percent of the Gullwings. The car was ordered by Robin Grant of Barnet Instruments in London and was later owned by racing driver and Le Mans entrant David Piper in the 1960s.

 Mercedes-Benz 540K 
Cabriolet sn-236582 1937 Pebble Beach Concours 
2016

Mercedes-Benz 540K Cabriolet sn-236582 1937
The 540K was the most powerful production model offered by Mercedes-Benz in the 1930s. First shown at the Paris Auto Salon in October 1936, the 540K was described by Mercedes-Benz as the “car for the connoisseur,” combining race-bred performance with superlative comfort. The Sindelfingen coachwork enshrouds a 5,401 cc overhead valve, 8-cylinder engine with a Rootes-type supercharger giving over 180 bhp. The coachwork is aerodynamic and low slung, with the radiator set 6 inches behind the front wheels, a low windshield and roof line, and a single spare wheel placed on the swept-back tail. One of only 32 Mercedes 540Ks of this design, this car was first delivered to the London home of Nicholas Embiricos, the brother of André Embiricos of Le Mans Bentley fame. It remained in the UK until the 1980s when it was acquired by Don Williams for the legendary Blackhawk Collection.

 Mercer Model 35 J 
Raceabout 1913 L108 PB 2016 Pebble 
Beach Concours 2016

Mercer Model 35 J Raceabout 1913
The Mercer Automobile Company was established in 1909 by the Roebling family, which was famous for building the Brooklyn Bridge, and Mercer’s legendary T-head Raceabout was one of the most significant cars of the early Brass Era. The Type 35 was introduced in 1911, and in 1913 the 35 K Runabout and 35 J Raceabout were also offered. Both were built on a 108-inch chassis powered by a 300-cubic-inch, 4-cylinder engine mated to a Brown & Lipe 4-speed gearbox. Raceabouts won the Chicago Automobile Club Trophy for three years running, including the year a Raceabout driven by Ralph De Palma averaged 66.8 mph. Another Mercer finished second in the 1913 Indianapolis 500. The Model 35 J sold at the time for $2,600, a price that would translate to that of a modern supercar today. Despite the cost, nearly 1,000 Model 35 Js and 35 Ks were sold.

 Oldsmobile Limited Series 27

Beach Concours 2016

Oldsmobile Limited Series 27 Clark Carriage Limousine 1911
In its day, the Oldsmobile Limited, built from 1910 to 1912, was the largest and most ostentatious car available in America. It rides on wheels that are 43 inches in diameter, and the body is 8 feet tall and 17 feet long. Under the hood is an equally massive 6-cylinder, 60 bhp engine displacing 706 cubic inches and easily propelling the car to over 70 mph. The curvaceous aluminum Clark coachwork features bevelled glass, a crowned roof and a speaking tube to relay instructions to the chauffeur. The J. L. Clark Carriage Company, founded in 1881, had built its first steel and aluminum car body in 1910 for Buick. The Oldsmobile Limited limousine sold for around $7,000, which was enough to buy several houses in 1911. Previously owned by Tom Barrett, Otis Chandler and D. Cameron Peck, this limousine was acquired by Jack Nethercutt in 1981.
