Bring a Trailer Daily Mail




 

This 1959 Jaguar MK1 (chassis S990305DN) is a highly original example with the optional 3.4 twin cam XK engine and overdrive 4-speed manual transmission. MKIIs seem to be more common, and we agree with the seller that the smaller size and somewhat cleaner detailing of the MKI ekes out a small lead when it comes to looks. This is one of the nicest we've spotted in quite some time, and it would look great with some Coombs rear arches. Find it here on eBay in Burlingame, California with reserve not met.

This is the 1988 Corvette driven by John Lingenfelter to just shy of 255 MPH on October 26th, 1988-17 years before the Bugatti Veyron. Its achievement is still stunning even by today's standards despite a quarter century of technological advancement. We remember reading the Car and Driver cover story detailing the record breaking event. This is the only one built; there were no other SledgeHammers. The final speed pass in the video below is shocking to watch. Find it here at Mecum Auctions where it is slated to cross the block in Kissimmee, Florida in January 2014.

This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro is said to have been won in a raffle, and was put away for 20 years after the winner's daughter drove the car while in school. The 327ci V8 with 3-speed column shift are original, as is the rest of the paint and body, which looks just fine with its share of scratches and dings. We love that it's not another SS or Yenko clone, but we wouldn't mind a Keisler 5-speed swap and no other mods. Find this one here on eBay in Guthrie Center, Iowa for $11k or "offer", but the seller implies that a $9k offer might take it.
