NEW S/W 2018 RM Sotheby's Arizona Auction Catalog Shelby Cobra 427 Jaguar D-Type

Content of this listing © But for the Love of Cars. All rights reserved.

New, shrink-wrapped catalog for the RM Sotheby's Arizona auction, January 18-19, 2018.

Catalog measures approximately 8 1/2" x 10 1/2" x 5/8" (22 x 27 x 1.5cm). New catalog features fantastic descriptions, detail, and photos — 147 lots, including 132 cars and a few fantastic children's cars.

RM Sotheby's diverse roster of blue-chip collector cars spanning pre-war American classics through iconic European sports cars and high-performance modern collectibles powered its 19th annual Arizona sale to a final $36,523,620 with 88 percent of all lots sold.

Top sale honors went to the 1966 Shelby 427 Cobra 'Semi-Competition,' CSX 3040, one of the finest semi-competition examples in existence. The matching-numbers Cobra eventually soared past its pre-sale estimate to bring a final $2,947,500.

The sale featured two single-owner groups, highlighted by A Century of Sports Cars; 11 automobiles focused on great Italian sports and GT cars. Results for the collection were highlighted by the beautifully restored and maintained 1964 Ferrari 250 GT/L Berlinetta Lusso at $1,682,500, a 1960 Ferrari 250 GT Cabriolet Series II at a final $1,407,500, and an award-winning 1955 Alfa Romeo 1900C SS Speciale by Boano at $1,270,000.

Sales from a selection of pre- and post-war American Classics from a private collection was led by the 1948 Tucker 48, chassis no. 1029, the personal car of visionary builder Preston Tucker himself until 1955. Star of the 1948 promotional film Tucker: The Man and the Car and presented with exhaustive documentation, the Tucker achieved a final $1,792,500. Also fetching a strong price was the 1935 Auburn Eight Supercharged Speedster, retaining its original chassis, engine, and body, which well surpassed pre-sale expectations at $769,500.
