Jim, it was nice working with you.  I am not sure if I will do anything to the car (1970 GTO), but it really is a lot better car than I thought originally because the price was so good.  I am glad I came to look at it and have my mechanic check it out.  I will keep up with your cars because I still want to add to my collection as I can.  Thank you again.  AB, AL

I have been a hot rod guy since a kid. One car I have always wanted was a 1936 Chevrolet 5 Window Coupe that was ready to go. I found one that was close to my dream car on Classic Car Store’s website. All steel body built from the ground up as a Pro-Touring car and built right. Jim was very helpful, specific and told me the good and bad about the car. I decided to buy it, bought a one-way ticket from Oklahoma to Birmingham, AL. I hoped the car was what it was supposed to be. Jim picked me up at the Airport and took me to the Owner, an elderly gentleman in a small country town. The car was everything represented, much nicer than I expected. After getting the banking handled I made a road trip back home to Oklahoma stopping and seeing a couple of friends on the way back. Not one problem with the car. Overall it was an excellent experience, especially when you are buying a car from photos and getting information from someone you don’t know. If you want a straight shooter when buying a Classic Car, Jim is the man. Thank you, DF-OK

"I've known Jim Lowrey for almost 30 years and have always respected him as the most knowledgeable and experienced person I knew when it came to cars. Buying cars through Jim has made the process literally a breeze!  Even more important to me than his expertise is his honesty and integrity. I would recommend Jim to anyone wanting to buy or sell a car!"  MG, AL

Everything has gone great on the 1970 Dodge Charger RT.  Once the transport dropped it off, we are getting it ready to ship to Sweden and the buyer in Sweden is so excited and he can’t wait to get it.  Thank you for your help in making this transaction possible.  We have other international buyers looking for all kinds of vehicles, so let’s stay in touch.  Thanks again and it was a pleasure working with you.

Description
Rare 1960 Deutsch Bonnet HBR-5

This 1960 Deutsch Bonnet HBR-5 is an extremely rare example having a Perspex roof which was a factory option on only a small number of cars. Chassis #1160 is an excellent restoration candidate retaining its original matching numbers engine. It also comes with a second engine as well as many parts. This car can be restored for concours, street use, or as a vintage racing weapon...your choice.

Deutsch-Bonnet produced the HBR-5 between 1954 and 1960. This beautiful coupe was a dual purpose machine intended for both race and road use. Due to its wind-cheating design and its potent and reliable engine, the HBR-5 was the car to beat in its class at racetracks in Europe and the USA. Howard Hanna drove his DB HBR-5 to an SCCA National Championship in 1958 and Ray Heppenstall repeated the feat by racing his DB HBR-5 to an SCCA National Championship in 1959. HBR-5 cars are coveted by collectors and nice restoration candidates like this one are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
  • Rare and collectible Deutsch Bonnet HBR-5 with Perspex roof
  • Matching numbers example
  • Out of a large European collection
  • Ideal restoration candidate
