1963 Shelby Cobra Chassis No. CSX2080 Estimate $425,000 - $475,000 The fifth 289 Cobra built, CSX 2080 was purchased new from Mallon Motors (Tacoma, WA) by David Goodsen in October of 1964. Four years later Goodsen had the Cobra repainted, he also added a hood scoop and headers from Shelby Automotive, and side louvers from AC Cars to assist with cooling. He kept exceptional records and everything has been documented in a binder which will be available for viewing at the auction. Goodsen sold CSX 2080 for $20,000 in 1978 with just over 60,000 miles to a dealer in Arizona. Shortly thereafter it was sold to Jim Southard, the dealer responsible for creating the first Cobra craze. The next owner, contrary to the SAAC Registry was not William Thaygard (Marathon, FL). CSX 2080 was acquired by Carl Lee Windham in 1981 after he borrowed $30,000 in gold coins from his father (albeit to some objection) which he traded for the Cobra. Discovered complete with its original drivetrain, dashboard, wire wheels, air cleaner, carburetor, and intake manifold, this 289 Cobra also sports most of it original carpeting and carries its original seats as well as its original top and tonneau cover. The engine bay remains virtually untouched and features its original relays and wiring harness. Also included are original factory side curtains, an original factory hardtop, and an original owners manual. In order to make the car road ready, a new radiator and hoses have been added, and a complete mechanical restoration has been performed with close attention paid to preserving its original condition. CSX 2080 is a true “barn find” matching numbers example, that is now in excellent running and driving condition and benefits from having only two private owners from new. Parked since 1981, it has only recently resurfaced and shows just over 68,000 original miles. It remains an exceptional example with a well documented history and as such we invite a closer inspection of what could be one of the last true “barn find” Cobras.

1932 Duesenberg Model J Dual Cowl Phaeton Coachwork in the style of Murphy Engine # J315 Estimate $350,000- $450,000 To many, the mighty Duesenberg Model J remains the ultimate Classic Era automobile. This example, J315, Chassis 2330, was originally fitted with Rollston high-roof limousine bodywork and according to the unbroken history, it returned in 1935 to the Chicago Factory Branch, where a Dietrich coupe body was fitted. In April 1974, Harry Andrews of Long Beach, California, acquired J315. He removed the Dietrich body and replaced it with one of three new long-wheelbase Murphy Dual Cowl Phaeton bodies. In 1984, a noted collector from West Palm Beach, Florida acquired J315 and the car was professionally restored. Bruce Alfee completed the engine and mechanical restoration, Adolph Purich tailored the top and upholstery, and Rick Carroll Restorations handled body, paint and final assembly. An AACA National First Place award followed and in early 2006, J315 joined the prominent private collection from which it is now offered.

1953 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible Estimate $125,000 - $150,000 This 1953 Eldorado Convertible was completely restored before joining a noted private collection in 1997, alongside a 1953 Buick Skylark and Oldsmobile Fiesta, as part of a coveted GM “Triple Crown”. During the restoration, the exterior was beautifully refinished, all chrome was re-plated, and the interior was restored with red leather upholstery. Understood to be an excellent running and driving example with a full complement of original accessories, the Eldorado remains highly attractive and desirable nonetheless. In the eyes of today’s collectors, there is little doubt that the 1953 Eldorado is the single most desirable postwar Cadillac ever built. With just 532 produced, it is also among the most rare, and this combination of rarity, historical significance and sheer desirability continues to drive demand.

1953 Oldsmobile Fiesta Convertible Estimate $150,000 - $200,000 Originally created for the 1952 show circuit and introduced in mid-1953 as a top-line production model, the Fiesta Convertible featured nearly every Oldsmobile 98 option as standard equipment. Today, it remains coveted as part of GM’s 1953 “Triple Crown”. This example was a solid and complete one-owner car prior to its first concours-level, “body-off-frame” restoration in 1983 by Don Spieldenner. It was re-restored by Classic Auto in Connecticut during 1985-87 and shortly after, it earned an AACA Junior National Award. In 2007, the Fiesta took Best in Show at the Greenwich Concours and later that year, the current owner acquired it. As few as 30 of the original 458 Fiesta Convertibles built still exist today. This award-winning example is without doubt among the finest.
