Lamborghini Miura P400 S

This Lamborghini Miura P400 S was discovered in a warehouse in Germany after the owner passed away in 2015. The car has been stored in the warehouse and has never undergone any repairs.

The Lamborghini Miura P400 S was sold for $1.6 million in its original color and engine condition.

Dodge Charger Daytona 1969

With only 503 units produced, the Dodge Charger Daytona 1969 is one of the rarest and most iconic muscle cars ever manufactured in America. Professional car restorer Charlie Lyons stumbled upon this car during his visit to Glenwood, Alabama while searching for a 1970 Chevelle.

The Dodge Charger Daytona 1969 had been neglected for decades, covered in dust and rust to the point where moss was starting to grow on it. After a thorough restoration, the car was sold at an auction for $90,000.

Jaguar XK140 1955

The Jaguar XK140 SE was originally sold in France in 1955. However, two years later, it was involved in an accident and left in an irreparable condition.

Michelotti was entrusted with the car’s restoration, which included a complete interior overhaul and the fitting of a Jaguar C-type engine. The Jaguar XK140 1955 was later sold at a Bonhams auction for $331,000.

Shelby Cobra 289 Roadster 1963

In 1969, a Scottish chemist living in Indianapolis purchased the car. It was copper-plated and stored in a barn before being sold to Cobra collector Billy Weaver.

Weaver restored and sold the car at the Monterey Classic Car Auction in 2005 for $379,500. The Shelby Cobra 289 Roadster was again put up for auction in 2018 with an estimated value of $1-1.2 million, but it did not sell.

Lamborghini Miura S 1967

While browsing through eBay, John Temerian stumbled upon a unique Lamborghini SS 1967. After requesting more detailed and clear photos, he decided to visit the warehouse in NYC where the Lamborghini Miura S 1967 was located.

It turned out that the car had been “abandoned” for 30 years. The Lamborghini Miura S 1967 was showcased in an art exhibition before being sold to a sportsman through a Hollywood Wheels auction in 2018. Although the sale price was not disclosed, the estimated value of the Lamborghini Miura is around $2.5 million.
