This included racing in the great endurance races such as the Le Mans 24 Hours, N\u00fcrburgring, Spa and Monza 1000km and the Targa Florio. Aston Martin, Ferrari, Jaguar, Porsche and Ford (by backing Carroll Shelby with the Cobra), all designed very lightweight, successful competition cars to compete in the GT category.\u00a0 In the USA these cars raced in the SCCA and the USRRC.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today, GT cars qualify to race in many great historic events such as the Tour (de France) Auto, Tour of Spain and Targa Florio because they are dual-purpose race and street cars. They also qualify for the Le Mans 24 Hour Classic and, in the USA, the Monterey Motorsport Reunion, as well as all other race events and tours. Due to their technology, great designs, event eligibility, and low production numbers, GT cars have steadily been increasing in value.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Additionally, there was also the popular American series for racing \u201cSedans,\u201d the Trans-Am Championship, which started in 1966 and for the purposes of this guide, goes through 1972. This was exciting racing, with all the big American manufacturers involved.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today, there is a Historic Trans-Am group that is always a crowd pleaser. These cars have also proved their worth, and have been increasing in value with buyers paying a premium for team cars with real history.<\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><strong>Make<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\"><strong>Model<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\"><strong>Level III<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\"><strong>Level II<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\"><strong>Level I<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\">AMC Javelin<\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">\n<p>\u201868-\u201972 Trans Am<\/p>\n<p>Team<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$500,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$600,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$700,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">\n<p>\u201869-\u201971 Trans Am<\/p>\n<p>Independent<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$125,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$150,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$200,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\">Aston Martin<\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">DB2<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$100,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$175,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$200,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">DB4 GT<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$800,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$900,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$1,000,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">DB4 GT Zagato<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$3,000,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$3,500,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$4,000,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\">Austin-Healey<\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">100 M<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$80,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$100,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$115,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">100 S<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$275,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$300,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$325,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">100-6 MM<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$45,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$60,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$70,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">3000<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$45,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$65,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$85,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\">Bizzarrini<\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">5300 Strada<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$450,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$500,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$650,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\">BMW<\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">3.0CSL<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$90,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$110,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$125,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">3.5CSL Competition<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$400,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$450,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$550,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\">Chevrolet Camaro<\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">\n<p>\u201867-\u201971 Trans Am<\/p>\n<p>Team Penske<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$600,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$700,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$800,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">\n<p>\u201866-\u201970 Trans Am<\/p>\n<p>Independent<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$125,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$175,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$200,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\">Chevrolet<\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">\u201856-\u201962 Corvette<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$60,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$100,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$125,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">\u201863-\u201967 Corvette<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$60,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$100,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$125,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">\u201868-\u201972 Corvette<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$50,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$70,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$95,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\">Cobra<\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">289 Team Comp<\/td>\n<td width=\"16%\">$2,000,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$2,200,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">$2,500,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"22%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"26%\">289 Ind.

in 1964 as a production road car. In 1967, with the 911 \u201cR,\u201d Porsche built the first batch of lightweight\u00a0 911-based competition cars. This continued on in 1970 with the 911ST, and in 1973 with the 911 2.8 RSR. By 1974, the 911 3.0 RSR was out on the race track. This lightweight, normally aspirated 911 racecar was enormously successful, winning the FIA Manufacturers GT Class World Championship. The ultimate 911 had won the ultimate championship against the world\u2019s best cars. The 3.0 RSR followed Porsche\u2019s idea of light, nimble, and fast. The bodyshell was made with thin gauge sheet steel on the roof, door panels, and floor pans. Fiberglass was used on the front hood and bumper, as well as the rear engine lid and bumper. A special thin window glass was even used. This brought the weight down to under 2,000 lbs. The 3.0-liter, 6-cylinder engine was built to race specification with twin-plug cylinder heads and twin ignition. It produced 330 bhp. Running on big 9-inch\u00a0 front and 14-inch rear wheels, the RSR looked menacing. Porsche built 59 examples of the 3.0-liter RSR. They are highly sought after today for use in so many race and rally events.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h3>1960 Aston Martin DB4 GT<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_582736\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-582736\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/MG201006-p2-1080x724-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-582736\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/MG201006-p2-1080x724-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/MG201006-p2-1080x724-1.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/MG201006-p2-1080x724-1-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/MG201006-p2-1080x724-1-1024x686.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/MG201006-p2-1080x724-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/MG201006-p2-1080x724-1-770x516.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/MG201006-p2-1080x724-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/MG201006-p2-1080x724-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/MG201006-p2-1080x724-1-293x196.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-582736\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Brian Green<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">David Brown, an industrialist whose company was known for manufacturing gears, bearings and tractors, purchased the Aston Martin Car company in 1947. From then on the cars were powered by 6-cylinder engines, redesigned, and became known as the DB series Aston Martins. The DB 1 was introduced in 1948, the DB2 in 1950 and the DB3 in 1957. By 1958 one of the most successful and popular models the DB4 was introduced. The DB4 was key to establishing the company\u2019s reputation as a quality sports car manufacturer. The DB4 series was the first Aston Martin to be constructed with a platform frame. The DB4 GT was a lightweight performance version that was first shown at the London Motor Show in 1959. It had a shorter wheelbase, with no rear seat, a lightweight body, and a highly tuned 3.7 Liter 6-cylinder engine. The engine carried twin ignition, three Weber carburetors, and produced just over 300 bhp. There was a large 36-gallon fuel tank with dual fillers on either side of the car. Some 95 DB4 GTmodels were built, with 19 having special Zagato bodies, one with a body by Bertone and the rest with the standard Aston Martin coachwork. Today these cars are highly sought after as they are a true dual-purpose sports car and racecar suitable for rallies and races. They are also excellent examples of Aston Martin\u2019s excellent build quality.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Criteria Used For Assessing Valuations for this Guide:<\/h2>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Degree of Originality<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Overall Condition, Restoration<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Technology, Design, Coachbuilder<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Production Numbers\/Rarity<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Competition History<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Ownership History, Documentation<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Modern Event Eligibility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Regional Variances<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The prices stated in this guide are based on U.S. values.
