1939 Porsche Type 64

The advent of World War II saw Dr. Ferdinand Porsche forced to shift focus. He retained a vision to produce a lighter, faster version of his car. The Type 64 shares the same drivetrain and suspension as the Type 1 Volkswagen, it is otherwise very different. The chassis and riveted alloy body utilize WWII aircraft technology, while the original air-cooled flat-four engine was tuned to 32 bhp.

Only a single Type 64 survived the war. In 1997, the Type 64 changed hands for just the second time in six decades. “This is Porsche’s origin story, the car that birthed the company’s legend, and it offers collectors what is likely an unrepeatable opportunity to sit in the seat of Ferdinand and Ferry Porsche."

This is the most historically important of all Porsche cars, period. It's a remarkable relic.

There is no estimate being offered for one of the most significant cars in Porsche's history. Millions certainly.

2019 Chevrolet Camaro Yenko S/C Stage II

The 2019 Yenko Chevrolet Camaro boasts a LT1-based 6.8-liter V-8 engine supercharged to achieve 1,000-hp. There are plans to build 25 Stage II cars. Each will cost $67k more than a 2019 Camaro SS with the 1LE package. Thus the cheapest Yenko Camaro is something around $112k. A few other options such as hood and stripe graphics, and embroidered headrests will push the price up further.

An Orange Crush 2019 Camaro Yenko S/C Stage II with 25 miles on the odometer hammered for $170,500 at Barrett Jackson this spring.

1983 Delorean DMC-12

The DeLorean is a sports car manufactured by John DeLorean's DeLorean Motor Company, or DMC, for the American market from model years 1981 through 1983. The car became widely known for its lack of power and poor performance, which didn't match the expectations created by its looks and price tag. By the 1990s the DeLorean became iconic for its appearances as the time machine in the Back to the Future franchise.

Over the course of about 24 months spanning three model years, about 9,000 DeLoreans were made before production halted in early 1983.

1948 Tucker

1948 Tucker. It might please Preston Tucker that the 47 surviving examples of the 51 cars he built are among the most valuable, desirable, and popular American cars in the world. They draw the most attention and invariably draw crowds to any museum at which they are displayed.

This car was one of 13 originally finished in Maroon, and one of eight late-production cars completed in the closed-down factory by former employees. It was eventually sold at the bankruptcy auction of October 1950. The car underwent complete restoration to authentic original condition in 2007.

The Tucker 48 featured an H-6 (horizontally opposed), OHV, 334 ci developing 166 bhp and 372 lb⋅ft torque. This concours quality car made $ 1.8m.

The most recognizable feature of the Tucker '48, was a third directional headlight (the "Cyclops Eye"). It would activate at steering angles of greater than 10 degrees to light the car's path around corners.

Heavy-duty springs and shocks and a larger-diameter front sway bar were included, as were monster brakes. This 1963 Z06 coupe retains its original matching-numbers driveline.
