We've discovered the following for Triumph and MG convertibles is strong, and the British crowd is even larger and just as enthusiastic as the Italian car devotees. Don't worry Italiani's---there's no shortage of love for pasta around here. But vintage British convertibles are certainly an alternative to Italian classics for some buyers, and have a unique appeal all their own.While a bit less sophisiticated than their Italian counterparts, this is a plus for customers who choose to do their own repairs. There is clearly a hierarchy in British sports car fandom, with Aston Martin and Jaguar E types currently enjoying their position on the top wrung. Classics like the Austin Healy and Triumph TR6 are not far behind as more affordable options. Classic MG's are quite popular too. The TR6 in particular has a huge following. Although many of these lovely cars have fallen victim to rust devils, the few solid chassis that remain have become quite valuable. Certain model years like the 72-74 vintage are highly regarded--reflected by NADA prime values approaching $50K! VIN NUMBER IS CC81709U AUCTION JUST CHANGED TO NO RESERVE--CALL WITH REALISTIC OFFERS! Roadster Salon currently has seven other TR6 convertibles in stock ready for restoration with low miles from 1971-1975. Colors include BRG, Magenta, French Blue, Red, Orange and Yellow.Rare overdrive versions available too! Ask your salesperson for details History and Restoration Strategy This particular example was a dry chassis from Utah that a customer had started restoring several years ago. The car had also spent time on the West Coast. Upon arrival at our shop, we noted work had already begun on the interior. The paint was original and rust free, but a little tired. Rubber gaskets needed to be replaced, and although running well, the car required our golden touch. From a mechanical standpoint, we were impressed. Many of the more expensive basics had been covered. Initially, we were undecided how far to take this particular car. For example, "Avanzato" level Fiat spiders represent our mid-range price approach and start at about $40K. The "Avanzato" restoration is the least expensive full cosmetic and mechanical rebuild in our program. Our quandry was that many customers would have been satisfied with the car as it stood--looking like a classic example of a solid "driver". The problem with the restoration of any vehicle is that the number of man hours and materials needed to do the job properly can easily exceed the value of the car. For example, even at a nominal labor rate of $100 per hour, a shop can easily spend 500-600 man hours restoring a single car. High-end projects can reach double that time, with some companies charging over $150 per hour for their services. Consequently, there is always a question of time versus return that must be considered with every project. Ambitious folks who buy cars in need of restoration with the intent on doing most of the work themselves have become our best customers. It is easy to get overwhelmed by projects where expertise and resources quickly go beyond the most dedicated enthusiasts. The model year, condition and potential of this TR6 made a proper restoration easy to justify.Put simply, the better the starting point---the better the outcome. The bones were excellent, miles low and previous service history known. Over $6000 in recent receipts were provided by the previous owner. The entire sub structure was amazingly clean for a 40 year old car. All considered, we decided to take a conservative approach to the restoration to keep the price in line with the better examples in the market. To keep the overall budget within a comfortable range, our strategy was to prioritize the paint and mechanical aspects of the project, and limit time with the interior. This was relatively easy, because the previous owner had already made headway there. We added fresh burled walnut to the dash, along with new carpets, insulation and other cosmetic details. Mechanical and Driving Impressions Engine was dry with no leaks. Our service technicians checked compression, rebuilt the carbs and tuned the motor. Fuel delivery and tank were checked and cleaned. Wear components like brakes and suspension members were freshened. Clutch had been done by previous owner. Rear end checked for leaks and re-sealed. Cooling system also checked and freshened. Budget was kept in check by limiting time with electrical system, but all gauges work and car starts without complaint or hesitation. Some electrical upgrades are available, but would be at an additional charge. The driving experience was pleasant. The character of a six-cylinder British engine is very different from an Italian twin cam. We can certainly understand the appeal. A TR6 is a fun drive. Very few vintage cars can match its combination of performance and relative ease of upkeep. These are simple cars with huge upside if kept in top condition. During our test loop, the car was well behaved, and showed no signs of irritability. Acceleration, braking and handling exceeded our expectations. Solid Car! Cosmetic comments The nice thing about driving a professionally restored classic is not having to worry about the basics. Paint, interior and mechanical are all well done, and ready to enjoy. In all candor, we probably went a bit overboard on the paint. The car was fully dis-assembled and stripped prior to the re-spray in the original color. Prep time, material and finish work was comparable to $10-12K job. Really well done. Market Report The following data was taken from NADA classic car guide, which shows values in the $42-$46K range for a top quality car that is driven and shown. This does not include premium values for 100 point show cars that are transported and not driven on the street. Trends for this model are consistently higher, with 72-74 versions showing particular strength. Our asking price is below the current market for comparable '72 TR6 models, not the higher restoration cost.

Like a conservator who restores a classic painting to its original splendor—our artisans take forgotten, road weary Spiders, and return them to a time when they were loved and enjoyed. Our spiders are hand crafted by a team of certified Ferrari mechanics and Italian car specialist. Every chassis is thoroughly screened, refurbished and tested---so that new memories can be built confidently with the turn of a key. Roadster Salon recreates memories of our youth. Simpler times of sunny days, wind in our hair, troubles left behind and a curvy road ahead.Roadster Salon spiders are the evolution of a classic ideal, built to be enjoyed whenever the passion arises. Our intention is not to make a brand new car. Even our most ambitious projects do not change every nut and bolt. We seek to restore beauty, improve reliability, and retain practicality. Roadster Salon Spiders are meant to be driven and enjoyed, not just shipped from show to show. We currently offer four models intended to fit the needs of most customers. From the austere Classico, the high value Basso, premium Avanzato model, to the exotic Ultimo--each package offers superior value for the dollar. Every car can be built to suit the needs and tastes of individual clients. New offerings like the Lusso package and Spider Corsa provide even further inspiration. Custom features, options and color selections are yours to decide. The process is interactive. You dream it, we build it. LUXURY AUTO GROUP/ Internet remarketing solutionsBuying a car at a dealership can be daunting. High pressure salespeople.Limited selection. Adversarial negotiations. Not much fun. But buying a car on the internet has its own unique challenges. The most obvious concern is an online shopper's inability to test drive and evaluate the car in person. While internet pricing can be attractive, some feel that the unknowns outweigh the benefits. Horror stories about flawed vehicle histories, incomplete documentation, misrepresentations, selective disclosure, and title problems make many potential buyers cringe. The staff is your eyes and ears. We are marketing company representing our own inventory, sourced from some of the finest luxury car dealers in Chicago. Our commitment to complete customer satisfaction is unwavering. Internet Marketing PhilosophyIn our changing marketplace, internet sales have become a vital component to every dealer's sales profile. The internet provides us with a low cost venue to sell select inventory at near wholesale prices without compromising the resources of a dealer's retail sales operation. Internet car sales can take several forms, such as online classifieds and auctions. The most popular, and arguably the most challenging, is Internet sales. Our listings are generally offered on-line between five and ten day time frames. We have represented over 1000 fine automobiles on the internet during the past ten years. The vast majority of these vehicles were sold without the buyer seeing the vehicle prior to his commitment. How was this possible? Our success can be directly attributed to our unique ability to evaluate inventory with consistency, insight and professionalism. This talent extends beyond our hands on assessment of a vehicles cosmetic and mechanical condition. It also includes our research of various data bases to determine past road history and service records. More than half of the vehicles we are asked to represent are rejected immediately because of obvious defects or concerns. An additional percentage fails to make the final cut following our research history.Our company randomly collects/studies data from past internet transactions. We have surveyed customers about their online experiences. Direct interviews and focus data are also compiled in an effort to better understand the Internet consumer. We have worked tirelessly to upgrade and improve our services, from the way our vehicles are screened and selected for Internet sale, to delivery and aftercare procedures. The lessons learned are insightfully applied to our Internet Marketing Program. Only the most fully sorted pre-owned vehicles in our inventory are presented through our Internet marketing program. In conclusion, regardless of venue, it all comes down to the quality of the inventory represented. While cliché, you can never pay too much for a great car. It also follows that a bargain price does not assure satisfaction. Luxury Auto Group knows the difference.

Italian convertibles in North America, our foray into British cars has only been in recent. We've discovered the following for Triumph and MG convertibles is strong, and the British crowd is even larger and just as enthusiastic as the Italian car devotees. Don't worry Italiani's---there's no shortage of love for pasta around here. But vintage British convertibles are certainly an alternative to Italian classics for some buyers, and have a unique appeal all their own.While a bit less sophisiticated than their Italian counterparts, this is a plus for customers who choose to do their own repairs. There is clearly a hierarchy in British sports car fandom, with Aston Martin and Jaguar E types currently enjoying their position on the top wrung. Classics like the Austin Healy and Triumph TR6 are not far behind as more affordable options. Classic MG's are quite popular too. The TR6 in particular has a huge following. Although many of these lovely cars have fallen victim to rust devils, the few solid chassis that remain have become quite valuable. Certain model years like the 72-74 vintage are highly regarded--reflected by NADA prime values approaching $50K! VIN NUMBER IS CC81709U AUCTION JUST CHANGED TO NO RESERVE--CALL WITH REALISTIC OFFERS! Roadster Salon currently has seven other TR6 convertibles in stock ready for restoration with low miles from 1971-1975. Colors include BRG, Magenta, French Blue, Red, Orange and Yellow.Rare overdrive versions available too! Ask your salesperson for details History and Restoration Strategy This particular example was a dry chassis from Utah that a customer had started restoring several years ago. The car had also spent time on the West Coast. Upon arrival at our shop, we noted work had already begun on the interior. The paint was original and rust free, but a little tired. Rubber gaskets needed to be replaced, and although running well, the car required our golden touch. From a mechanical standpoint, we were impressed. Many of the more expensive basics had been covered. Initially, we were undecided how far to take this particular car. For example, "Avanzato" level Fiat spiders represent our mid-range price approach and start at about $40K. The "Avanzato" restoration is the least expensive full cosmetic and mechanical rebuild in our program. Our quandry was that many customers would have been satisfied with the car as it stood--looking like a classic example of a solid "driver". The problem with the restoration of any vehicle is that the number of man hours and materials needed to do the job properly can easily exceed the value of the car. For example, even at a nominal labor rate of $100 per hour, a shop can easily spend 500-600 man hours restoring a single car. High-end projects can reach double that time, with some companies charging over $150 per hour for their services. Consequently, there is always a question of time versus return that must be considered with every project. Ambitious folks who buy cars in need of restoration with the intent on doing most of the work themselves have become our best customers. It is easy to get overwhelmed by projects where expertise and resources quickly go beyond the most dedicated enthusiasts. The model year, condition and potential of this TR6 made a proper restoration easy to justify.Put simply, the better the starting point---the better the outcome. The bones were excellent, miles low and previous service history known. Over $6000 in recent receipts were provided by the previous owner. The entire sub structure was amazingly clean for a 40 year old car. All considered, we decided to take a conservative approach to the restoration to keep the price in line with the better examples in the market. To keep the overall budget within a comfortable range, our strategy was to prioritize the paint and mechanical aspects of the project, and limit time with the interior. This was relatively easy, because the previous owner had already made headway there. We added fresh burled walnut to the dash, along with new carpets, insulation and other cosmetic details. Mechanical and Driving Impressions Engine was dry with no leaks. Our service technicians checked compression, rebuilt the carbs and tuned the motor. Fuel delivery and tank were checked and cleaned. Wear components like brakes and suspension members were freshened. Clutch had been done by previous owner. Rear end checked for leaks and re-sealed. Cooling system also checked and freshened. Budget was kept in check by limiting time with electrical system, but all gauges work and car starts without complaint or hesitation. Some electrical upgrades are available, but would be at an additional charge. The driving experience was pleasant. The character of a six-cylinder British engine is very different from an Italian twin cam. We can certainly understand the appeal. A TR6 is a fun drive. Very few vintage cars can match its combination of performance and relative ease of upkeep. These are simple cars with huge upside if kept in top condition. During our test loop, the car was well behaved, and showed no signs of irritability. Acceleration, braking and handling exceeded our expectations. Solid Car! Cosmetic comments The nice thing about driving a professionally restored classic is not having to worry about the basics. Paint, interior and mechanical are all well done, and ready to enjoy. In all candor, we probably went a bit overboard on the paint. The car was fully dis-assembled and stripped prior to the re-spray in the original color. Prep time, material and finish work was comparable to $10-12K job. Really well done. Market Report The following data was taken from NADA classic car guide, which shows values in the $42-$46K range for a top quality car that is driven and shown. This does not include premium values for 100 point show cars that are transported and not driven on the street. Trends for this model are consistently higher, with 72-74 versions showing particular strength. Our asking price is below the current market for comparable '72 TR6 models, not the higher restoration cost. This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied.

Roadster SalonClassic Convertible RecreationsAbout Us Pininfarina designed automobiles have been described as rolling works of art. Like a conservator who restores a classic painting to its original splendor—our artisans take forgotten, road weary Spiders, and return them to a time when they were loved and enjoyed. Our spiders are hand crafted by a team of certified Ferrari mechanics and Italian car specialist. Every chassis is thoroughly screened, refurbished and tested---so that new memories can be built confidently with the turn of a key. Roadster Salon recreates memories of our youth. Simpler times of sunny days, wind in our hair, troubles left behind and a curvy road ahead. Roadster Salon spiders are the evolution of a classic ideal, built to be enjoyed whenever the passion arises. Our intention is not to make a brand new car. Even our most ambitious projects do not change every nut and bolt. We seek to restore beauty, improve reliability, and retain practicality. Roadster Salon Spiders are meant to be driven and enjoyed, not just shipped from show to show. We currently offer four models intended to fit the needs of most customers. From the austere Classico, the high value Basso, premium Avanzato model, to the exotic Ultimo--each package offers superior value for the dollar.

Custom features, options and color selections are yours to decide. The process is interactive. You dream it, we build it. LUXURY AUTO GROUP/ Internet remarketing solutions Buying a car at a dealership can be daunting. High pressure salespeople.Limited selection. Adversarial negotiations. Not much fun. But buying a car on the internet has its own unique challenges. The most obvious concern is an online shopper's inability to test drive and evaluate the car in person. While internet pricing can be attractive, some feel that the unknowns outweigh the benefits. Horror stories about flawed vehicle histories, incomplete documentation, misrepresentations, selective disclosure, and title problems make many potential buyers cringe. The staff is your eyes and ears. We are marketing company representing our own inventory, sourced from some of the finest luxury car dealers in Chicago. Our commitment to complete customer satisfaction is unwavering. Internet Marketing PhilosophyIn our changing marketplace, internet sales have become a vital component to every dealer's sales profile. The internet provides us with a low cost venue to sell select inventory at near wholesale prices without compromising the resources of a dealer's retail sales operation. Internet car sales can take several forms, such as online classifieds and auctions. The most popular, and arguably the most challenging, is Internet sales. Our listings are generally offered on-line between five and ten day time frames. We have represented over 1000 fine automobiles on the internet during the past ten years. The vast majority of these vehicles were sold without the buyer seeing the vehicle prior to his commitment. How was this possible? Our success can be directly attributed to our unique ability to evaluate inventory with consistency, insight and professionalism. This talent extends beyond our hands on assessment of a vehicles cosmetic and mechanical condition. It also includes our research of various data bases to determine past road history and service records. More than half of the vehicles we are asked to represent are rejected immediately because of obvious defects or concerns. An additional percentage fails to make the final cut following our research history.Our company randomly collects/studies data from past internet transactions. We have surveyed customers about their online experiences. Direct interviews and focus data are also compiled in an effort to better understand the Internet consumer. We have worked tirelessly to upgrade and improve our services, from the way our vehicles are screened and selected for Internet sale, to delivery and aftercare procedures. The lessons learned are insightfully applied to our Internet Marketing Program. Only the most fully sorted pre-owned vehicles in our inventory are presented through our Internet marketing program. In conclusion, regardless of venue, it all comes down to the quality of the inventory represented. While cliché, you can never pay too much for a great car. It also follows that a bargain price does not assure satisfaction. Luxury Auto Group knows the difference. This auction is a legally binding contract to buy this vehicle. All vehicles are sold as-is unless otherwise specified. I have done my best to accurately describe this vehicle. It is up to the buyer to come see and further inspect the car before the end of the auction.-->
