2022 Ford GT Alan Mann Heritage Edition
The Small Speed Collection
Grosse Pointe, Michigan, Sept. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Broad Arrow Auctions is delighted to announce additional featured consignments for its inaugural Chattanooga Auction, set for October 12 in partnership with the 2024 Chattanooga Motorcar Festival.
Recent consignments for the single-day sale are perfectly matched to the Festival’s appeal to both the vintage car collector and racing enthusiast. They are led by a rare 2022 Ford GT Alan Mann Heritage Edition (Est. $1,200,000 – $1,500,000). One of only 30 special edition examples paying tribute to Alan Mann Racing’s lightweight 1966 Ford GT experimental race cars, the GT represents an unrepeatable opportunity to acquire Ford’s 21st-century hypercar in its most ultra-limited-production form. Offered from its original owner, Ford GT N105 is finished in Mann Red and Mann Gold with Frozen White accents and is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 producing 660 horsepower. The Alan Mann specification includes 20-inch gloss exposed carbon fiber wheels, gloss exterior carbon fiber package, red brushed paddle shifters, and more. Seldom seen on the market, the Ford GT shows less than 20 delivery miles.
Joining the Ford GT is another group of cars with undeniable racing pedigree, The Small Speed Collection. Comprising six British and European cars of small size yet important racing heritage, The Small Speed Collection embodies the quirky charm and engaging driving dynamics sought after by their owner. The group is led by a carefully preserved 1970 Lancia Fulvia Rallye 1600 HF “Fanalone” (Est. $100,000 – $120,000), one of only 1,258 Series I examples produced, representing the pinnacle of the Fulvia model’s evolution.
“The Small Speed Collection is offered by a professional sports car racer and enthusiast of the highest order,” says Ramsey Potts, Senior Car Specialist for Broad Arrow Auctions. “The lifelong collector has an eye for vehicles that stir childhood nostalgia and promise a spirited, analog motoring experience and that’s exactly what’s represented by each of these carefully chosen machines – the joy of driving and the unique character of each race-bred model.”
Additional cars offered from The Small Speed Collection include:
- A 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce, offered with its original numbers-matching engine and promising plenty of opportunities for rallies, tours, and La Dolce Vita (Est. $60,000 – $70,000, offered without reserve);
- A 1966 Lotus Cortina Mk1, preserved in remarkably original condition (Est. $55,000 – $65,000, offered without reserve);
- A highly usable 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale, upgraded with a potent 1,570 cc DOHC Giulia Veloce engine (Est. $55,000 – $65,000, offered without reserve);
- An iconic and beautifully restored 1965 Austin-Healey 3000 Mk III BJ8 (Est. $50,000 – $60,000, offered without reserve);
- A comprehensively restored 1957 BMW Isetta 300 ready to charm one and all (Est. $30,000 – $40,000, offered without reserve).
A second collection of five cars is set for Broad Arrow’s Chattanooga Auction, this one focused on a singular model. The Stingray Survivor Collection is a group of highly original and desirable big-block C3-generation Corvettes, offered entirely without reserve. Assembled by a collector who sought out the best-preserved examples of the Corvettes of his youth, The Stingray Survivor Collection are all desirable manual transmission cars, each wearing a racing-inspired color. The Corvettes on offer include:

- An unrestored 1969 Chevrolet Corvette 427/400 Stingray Coupe, one of 352 Tri-power L68 Stingrays fitted from the factory with air conditioning and an M20 four-speed manual transmission (Est. $70,000 – $90,000);
- A 1969 Chevrolet Corvette 427/390 Stingray Convertible, factory-fitted with the 390-horsepower big block L36 “Turbo-Jet” engine and M21 close-ratio four-speed manual transmission, and showing 60,604 original documented miles (Est. $70,000 – $90,000);
