1963 AC SHELBY COBRA
1963 AC SHELBY COBRA 4.7-LITRE MARK II ROADSTER  REGISTRATION NO. OYM 28A CHASSIS NO. CSK2116 ENGINE NO. CSX2116
Footnotes
Rightly regarded as one of the all-time great classic sports cars, the muscular, fire-breathing Cobra succeeded in capturing the hearts of enthusiasts like few of its contemporaries. Only 1,000-or-so Cobras of all types were built between 1962 and 1967, but such was the model's enduring popularity that production was resumed in 1982 under the auspices of Brooklands-based Autokraft. 
Convinced that a market existed for an inexpensive sports car combining European chassis engineering and American V8 power, Le Mans-winning Texan racing driver Carroll Shelby concocted an unlikely alliance between AC Cars and the Ford Motor Company. The former's Ace provided the simple twin-tube chassis frame - designed by John Tojeiro - into which was persuaded one of Ford's lightweight, small-block V8s. It was discovered that the latter was lighter than the six-cylinder Ford Zephyr unit that AC was using, yet with vastly greater potential. To cope with the projected power increase, the Ace chassis was strengthened with heavier gauge tubing and supplied fitted with four-wheel disc brakes. Weighing a mere 1.5cwt more than a Bristol-engined Ace yet endowed with double the power and torque, the Cobra turned in a breathtaking performance, racing to 60mph in 4.4 seconds and reaching the 'ton' in under 12, exceptional figures by early 1960s standards and none too shabby even today.
The 260ci (4.2-litre) prototype first ran in January 1962, with production commencing later that year. Exclusively for the USA initially, Cobras - minus engines - were sent from England to be finished off by Shelby in California, and it was not until late in 1963 that AC Cars in Thames Ditton got around to building the first fully finished cars to European specification. 
After 75 Cobras had been built with the 260ci engine, the more powerful 289ci (4.7-litre) unit was standardised in 1963. Rack-and-pinion steering was the major MkII up-date; then in 1965 a new, stronger, coil-suspended MkIII chassis was introduced to accommodate Ford's 427ci (7.0-litre) V8, an engine that in race trim was capable of producing well in excess of 400bhp. Wider bodywork, extended wheelarch flares and a bigger radiator intake combined to create the definitive - and much copied - Cobra MkIII look. Keeping ahead of the competition on the racetrack had been the spur behind Shelby's adoption of the 427 engine, but some MkIIIs to 'street' specification came with Ford's less powerful 428ci hydraulic-lifter V8. 
But for Brian Angliss, the Cobra story would have ended in 1967. The Autokraft boss had built up a business restoring Cobras and supplying parts, and in the early 1980s acquired the rights to the AC name plus a quantity of jigs and tooling from the old Thames Ditton factory. Keeping the overall style of the MkIII, Autokraft produced the MkIV, which was appropriately updated to meet current legislation and powered by a 'Federalised' Ford 5.0-litre V8 engine. Around 480 were built. 
Chassis number 'CSX2116' was invoiced to Shelby American on 16th April 1963 and shipped to Los Angeles three days later aboard the 'SS Loch Gowan'. Invoiced on 18th June 1963 to Burton Motors of Sacramento, California, the Cobra was sold new to a local doctor who used it for a few years before giving it to his daughter. She used the car as daily transport for several years before the clutch failed, at which time it was sold to Steve Dangremond of Santa Rosa, California. The Cobra was advertised for sale by Mr Dangremond in late 1977 and bought by Dr Grant Hill of Chotoka, Alberta. Dr Hill fitted Weber carburettors and raced 'CSX2116', eventually trading it to Fred Yule in Portland, Oregon. At that time, the car was still finished in its original colour scheme of dark blue and retained its original black leather interior. 
'CSX2116' returned to the UK in the late 1980s and was advertised through Hampson's Ltd, by which time it had been refinished in red and fitted with a full-width roll bar. Subsequent owners in England were Dr Carlos Barbot, Trojan boss Peter Agg and Formula 1 racing driver Rupert Keegan. 'CSX2116' was last restored in 1988, records on file indicating that an extensive mechanical restoration was undertaken at this time. The car still retains its original black leather interior though the Weber carburettors have gone, replaced by an easier to maintain four-barrel Holley. There is considerable additional accompanying documentation including correspondence between previous owners, a copy of the original bill of sale, Shelby American Automobile Club letter of authentication, FIA papers and Swansea V5 registration document. The car has belonged to the current owner since 2006.  Early Cobras are offered for sale only rarely and this example represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a fine example of this classic of Anglo-American sports car design.

Inside The Koenigsegg Gemera, A Correct Four-seat Hybrid Hypercar
Yup, the Gemera has a posh powertrain with the Koenigsegg Gemera engine alone comprising of a 2-liter 3-cylinder dry-sumped twin-turbo freevalve engine together with no much less than three electric motors. Nicknamed the ‘Tiny Friendly Giant’ (TFG), the Gemera’s three-cylinder is type of a feat of engineering. The twin-turbocharged 2.0-litre combustion engine alone produces a whopping 600bhp, 443 lb ft of torque, and it’s part of a hybrid drivetrain that’s supplemented by three electric motors. Two electrical koenigsegg gemera price motors power each rear wheel, producing 500bhp and 737 lb ft of torque, while a 400bhp electric motor can also supply 369 lb ft of torque to the crankshaft. The technically that makes this possible is fairly remarkable with the “Tiny Friendly Giant” combustion engine that’s a 2.0litre 3cyl turbo unit making 600hp, with an additional electrical motor, all of which sends 1,000hp to the front wheels.
The firm has been liable for numerous technological advances including a camless piston engine. Up until 2020, Koenigsegg was targeted on 2-seater hypercars with little to no room for anything gemera koenigsegg but its driver and passenger. That changed when its new camless engine was introduced within the 2020 Koenigsegg Gemera. The inside is as lavish as we have come to anticipate from a Koenigsegg.
He went on, saying that, whereas Freevalve ought to enable for sooner opening and closing rates at lower engine speeds than cam-driven valve, he doesn’t suppose this a huge benefit over standard systems. At high RPM, sooner closing valves could provide extra of a benefit, but “you’re still limited by the valve spring stiffness, valve mass, and seating rates to keep away from bodily damaging elements,” he informed me through e-mail. Turning off one of the consumption valves for increased swirl is also a well-known idea that has been implemented in production as properly. There are numerous benefits to altering when valves open within the combustion cycle, how far they open, and the way lengthy they remain open. The primary ones revolve round growing volumetric efficiency for higher gas economy, energy, and emissions, in addition to drivability (i.e. broadening the torque band across the rev range). When the major target is totally on the exterior aspect of static fashions the wheels at all times must perform well, GT Spirit once once more delivers.
This offers the Gemera torque-vectoring all-wheel drive, which is something of a necessity for a automobile which, when fueled on pure ethanol, generates 1,seven-hundred horsepower and 2,581 pound-feet of torque. "Ultimate efficiency has belonged to the world of two-seaters with very limited luggage house -- till now," Koenigsegg CEO Christian von Koenigsegg stated koenigsegg gemera in a statement. "Each individual valve has whole freedom. How much to open, when to open, how long to remain open." At low loads, solely one of many two consumption valves per cylinder opens, distributing atomized fuel more evenly.
To be trustworthy, static models usually don’t excel in the total package, but the Gemera proves robust. Like different Koenigseggs, the Gemera's chassis consists of a carbon-fiber tub and aluminum sub-structures. The center-lock carbon-fiber wheels are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires, 21 inches in entrance and 22 inches in the rear. This could possibly be the last word household automotive or simply the most irrational thing Koenigsegg has ever made, and that's saying something.
They appear significantly worthy of the Gemera name, which mixes the Swedish words for "give" and "extra". Those who had been able to listen to the digital stream of the release would first have seen the outstanding levels of space Koenigsegg has packed into this automotive. The automotive is capable of swallowing, with ease, four carry gemera on suitcases for its 4 passengers. Koenigsegg chose to stay in Geneva to deal with their newest releases, despite the precise fact that the Geneva Motor Show 2020 was not as a result of open. The company presented a revolutionary new four-seater in the shape of the Koenigsegg Gemera. The Gemera is limited to an version of 300 cars so hurry and get your order in now.
As a outcome, the automotive doesn’t sound exactly like you might anticipate, and as it’s nonetheless within the development stage it has a raw and raspy edge. This prototype model can be presently limited to around 4,500rpm, so it’s but to be heard at its full, wild potential. Unlike a fully-electric hypercar, the 4-seater Koenigsegg has three electrical motors that work alongside a three-cylinder engine so it could possibly still roar through the exhaust. The TFG is a expertise showcase, an alternate vision for the automotive future. Koenigsegg posits that with some left-field thinking, the internal-combustion engine can still have a spot in the electrified automotive world. The interior of this Gemera continues to be unfinished and many wires are visible.

Michael Savage New Canaan Ten Traditional Muscle Vehicles
With the appeal of motion pictures like The Fast as well as The Furious, Gone in Sixty Seconds as well as The last Trip, there has been some reference to the great old muscular tissue vehicles which were commemorated in movies like Bullit, Vanishing Point and also naturally The Dukes of Hazzard collection. This top 10 listing looks at several of the muscle auto icons born from the late 60's and also very early 70's.
 The major measure of these autos is power, with Brake Steed Power (bhp) being the term flung around most frequently. What this describes is the power released by the engine before the transmission, generator, differential, water pump, and also various other parts sap its power. If you are utilized to Kilowatts, after that think about that 250kw translates to 335.26 bhp.
 The 1969 Pontiac GTO
 Conceptualised to gain attract the more youthful market, Pontiac placed a 6.3 litre V8 engine into the midsized Tempest shell, creating a cheap rapid car. To the shock of Pontiac's advertising and marketing group the GTO became massively popular and also in 1969 they fitted it with a 6.5 litre V8 which might kick out 366bhp. The Judge was birthed.
 The 1970 Buick GSX
Michael Savage New Canaan
 Once again the concept right here was to squash a beast of an engine right into a midsized body, in this instance the Buick Skylark. In 1967 the Buick GS came to be recognised as a standalone design available as a sedan and convertible.
 The 1970 version was provided an impressive 7.5 litre engine efficient in producing 400bhp. The GSX body can be found in yellow or white just, including in the photo which made this cars and truck an unique classic.
 The 1967 Chevrolet Camaro
 There were different options available to those buying a very first generation Camaro, the Z28 bundle being one of the most interesting. With a 4.9 litre engine, power steering, disc brakes on the front and a four speed hands-on gearbox, the Z28 was produced racing - creating up to 400bhp.
 The Plymouth Roadrunner
 Developed to defeat 14 secs over a quarter mile, the Plymouth Roadrunner was stripped down to the bare fundamentals, sacrificing also the rugs in order to make this into a monster of a maker. It included a beefed up guiding, brake and shock absorber and a 6.3 litre engine which pressed 335bhp. An optional boost originated from the 7.0 litre version's 425bhp.
 The Dodge Opposition
 Hitting the market in 1970, the Dodge Opposition was a hit from the get go, offering greater than 80,000 in the first year. Although numerous alternatives were provided, the R/T is the model which draws in one of the most interest with its 7.0 litre Hemi engine rejecting 425bhp. Later on designs lost the story, with the '72 model going down to a meager 240bhp. See the Challenger in the cult timeless flick, Vanishing Factor.
 The 1966 Ford Fairlane GT
 Introduced in '62 with a 3.6 litre V8, the Ford Fairlane was provided a transformation in 1966, total with a 6.4 litre engine capable of 335bhp. As if this were inadequate they chose to upgrade to a 7.0 litre NASCAR engine with 435bhp. Rigid front suspension and also disc brakes provided the vehicle much better taking care of, and the brute power kicked the dial over 60mph (100km/h) in six seconds.
 Oldsmobile 442
Michael Savage New Canaan
 The Cutlass model was outfitted with a cops spec engine with the ability of 310bhp. The 442 refers to the four barrel carburettor, four speed hands-on gear box and the twin exhausts. The 442 had a credibility for its handling when contrasted to various other muscle mass autos, many thanks to its enhanced springs, shocks as well as the calming safety of an anti-roll bar.
 The 1968 version was redesigned as a hot sports car, with a 7.5 litre block blowing up 390bhp.
 Plymouth Barracuda
 Although the Barracuda was launched in 1964, simply a couple of weeks before the Ford Mustang, it was not till 1970 that Plymouth obtained larger popularity with attractive lines and also some serious roar under the hood in the kind of a 7.2 litre 390bhp. The various other choice was a smaller sized 7.0 litre Hemi block which knocked senseless some added power at 425bhp!
 Despite having an overhauled suspension the power was so much that the 'Cuda gained a credibility for difficult handling.
 The 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS
 The 1965 Chevelle SS sported a 6.5 litre block pushing 375bhp, which was all too much for the front end of the car, making for some pretty terrible handling. Fortunately this was attended to with the revamping of the suspension as well as the addition of disk brakes on the front.
 1969 saw the introduction of the leading engine specification, which was included in the El Camio pick-up as well. The 1970 SS was powered by a 7.4 litre V8 with 450bhp drawing the Chevell to 100km/h in just 6 seconds. Later on designs were readjusted for unleaded fuel and also the power result experienced considerably.
 Dodge Battery charger
 Bo as well as Battle each other's ride of selection, the Charger was launched in 1966 and some 37,000 autos were offered in the initial year. A 7.0 litre Hemi reputedly rejected around 500bhp, though it was formally rated at 425bhp. This beast reached 100km/h in just 5 and a fifty percent seconds. The Hemi engine choice was available till 1972.

Bentley Turbo R ‘Empress II’ (1 of 5). 
Underneath this rare Bentley coupe sits the chassis and running gear from Bentley’s Turbo R. So that means a big, 6.75-litre turbo V8, around 400bhp and 0–60mph in six seconds. The topside however, is totally bespoke. Welcome to the 1991 Bentley Turbo RL Empress II Coupe: one of just five models ever built, and also one of the oddest-looking Bentleys in existence. Odd, but in an interesting way. Hooper & Company is responsible for the coachwork, constructed entirely from aluminium, turning the four-door Turbo RL saloon into a really long two-door rarity. H&C built stuff for the royal family, so it’s proper. This particular car is the fourth of five Empress IIs built, of which two were left-hand-drive. It comes with that unique bodywork, electric front and rear seats, a sports steering wheel, a sunroof, 12-speaker Alpine stereo and even a cocktail cabinet because, hey, it’s a big Bentley.
