Bring a Trailer Daily Mail



 

This 1964 Lancia Jolly Camper Van is the only one we've ever seen. The British owner spent what sounds like a very fun year traveling around Europe in it during the early '90s, but it has mostly been sitting unused since, and is now in need of a complete restoration. It uses Appia components including the 1,100 CC narrow-angle V4 engine. Find it here on eBay in Chelmsford, England with reserve not met. Special thanks to BentleyGuy for the submission!

This 1964 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 pickup is said to have undergone a body-off restoration within the last ten years, and to have less than 6,000 miles on a very cleanly done Chevy V8 swap. A list of maintenance and upgrades totaling four pages and more than $22,000 shows all work was carried out by TLC 4×4, whose restoration work is second to none. We usually prefer the LWB 45s, but this one is working well with the canvas top, jump-seats, and stock wheels. Find it here on eBay in Montana with reserve not met.

This 1980 BMW M1 (chassis WBS59910004301191) is said to have only 18k miles on the clock and looks incredible in Inka Orange. The only mid-engined sports car BMW's ever made, it was the first road going use of the awesome M88 six, and is arguably the first practical supercar, beating Honda's NSX to the market by more than a decade. It must've taken superhuman restraint on the part of the previous owners to rack up only 600 miles a year. Find it here on CarsForSale.com at a dealer in Grand Rapids, Michigan for $280k.

Bring a Trailer Daily Mail



 

We spent 12+ hours Saturday at Circuit de Spa Francorchamps watching some of the best vintage racing we have ever seen. Our gallery below includes over 300 photographs to try to share our enthusiasm with you. These people get it.... entry is a paltry 25 Euros for three days, spectators' classic cars park together and for free right against the track, the 6-hour event requires a lighting strategy, and there are four different paddock areas, all of them jammed with wonderful race cars that couldn't care less about Monterey acceptance.

 

Check out the full story here on AutoWeek.com, and be sure to see all our photos here in the BaT Flickr gallery and slide-show below.

This 1963 Corvette convertible is a 327, four-speed car that once belonged to Harley Earl, the famous VP of GM's design studios. Built under shop order 10323, it's thought to have originally been intended for display at the Chicago Auto Show, but after being supplanted by a similar car was instead presented to Earl as a surprise gift in his Palm Beach driveway. Full of unique and fantastic custom, one-off features, it's an interesting piece of American automotive history. Find it listed here at Mecum Auctions where it will roll across on October 11th in Chicago, Illinois.

This 1964 Mercury Montclair Breezeway looks immaculate and is said to be an all-original, one owner (prior to the selling dealer), 16,375 mile car. Loaded with A/C, 390 big block, and of course the Breezeway's party trick - a power rear window - it looks like a really nice example of one of FoMoCo's many styling high water marks of the era, further helped by a great white over pale turquoise cloth color scheme. Find it here on eBay in Lakeland, Florida where it can't find a $10k bidder.
