Corvette Racing Adds Another Chapter to Le Mans History
Corvette Racing added another incredible chapter to its legendary history at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, with the No. 33 TF Sport Corvette Z06 GT3.R taking victory in the LMGT3 class. Driven by Ben Keating, Nicky Catsburg, and Jonny Edgar, the Corvette fought through one of the world’s toughest endurance races and crossed the finish line on top.
This was a major milestone for the Corvette Z06 GT3.R program, marking its first class win at Le Mans and Corvette Racing’s 10th class victory at the famed French endurance race. For Corvette fans, it was another proud reminder that America’s Sports Car continues to prove itself on the world stage.
The 24 Hours of Le Mans is one of the most demanding races in motorsports, testing speed, reliability, teamwork, and strategy for a full day and night. To win there requires more than just horsepower; it takes preparation, precision, and a team capable of performing under constant pressure.
Congratulations to Corvette Racing, TF Sport, Chevrolet, and the entire No. 33 team on an outstanding performance and another unforgettable Le Mans victory!

Mike’s Private Collection
3,019-Mile Ferrari 360 Spider F1
Finished in iconic Rosso Corsa over Palomino leather, this 2004 Ferrari 360 Spider F1 presents as a stunning, low-mileage example with just 3,019 miles. At its heart is Ferrari’s mid-mounted 3.6-liter V8, paired with a 6-speed F1 paddle-shift transaxle, delivering the unmistakable sound, precision, and driving exhilaration that define the 360 as one of Maranello’s most celebrated modern-era sports cars.
This example is well-equipped with a black power-operated convertible top, Challenge-style rear grille, 18-inch modular wheels, and a richly appointed Palomino leather interior featuring power Daytona seats and automatic climate control. It is further supported by a documented service history, underscoring its careful ownership and preservation.
Personally sourced by Mike to complement a collection of rare gems in our Anaheim showroom, this Rosso Corsa 360 Spider embodies timeless Pininfarina design and open-air Ferrari motoring at its finest—an enduring classic poised to stand the test of time.
Ultimate Garage Sale Piece
10,085 Original Mile 1969 Camaro Z/28
Due In Soon
The Kind of Z/28 Collectors Wait a lifetime to Find.
Finished in rare and striking Olympic Gold with black stripes, this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 is a beautifully preserved, true survivor showing just 10,085 miles from new. Purchased new in 1969 by its original owner, Jim Leonard, it has never been restored and still carries the kind of untouched character that restorers spend careers trying to replicate—but can never truly recreate.
Powered by its original DZ 302 Z/28-spec small-block and backed by the factory performance driveline, it delivers the sound, feel, and response that made the ’69 Z/28 a legend in period. More importantly, this car shows how an authentic Z/28 was actually built, finished, and experienced before decades of over-restoration and modification reshaped so many examples.
This example retains its original paint, original interior, low documented mileage, and long-term single-owner history, all of which place it firmly in the preservation class rather than among restored cars. The result is a reference-grade Z/28 that serious collectors wait years—sometimes a lifetime—to find.
Now available for sale, this 10,085-mile, original-owner Olympic Gold Z/28 represents the best kind of collector car: rare, authentic, beautifully preserved, and nearly impossible to duplicate. When it’s gone, finding another with this level of originality and mileage will be extraordinarily difficult.
