To be auctioned on August 20th, this 1965 Mercer-Cobra Roadster would make quite the addition to any collector’s garage, or one hell of an Sunday motor, as long as you don’t mind a little maintenance. The V8, four-speed roadster by the Lyon Family Collection since 1989, currently in tip top condition and boasting a glorious 108-inch wheelbase, though you’ll have to shell out an estimated $800,000-$1,200,000 to make it your own. Worth it.
