Saturday on Bring a Trailer and the lineup reads like someone raided a hall-of-fame garage, a museum storage wing, and an Italian dealership all at once. We’ve got an actual piece of Indy 500 history, not one but three Ferraris spanning four decades, a whale-tail Porsche, a Goat with three decades of loyalty behind it, and yes — a Maserati Biturbo for the truly brave among us. Grab a coffee and let’s dig in.
Ex–Bobby Unser 1973 AAR Eagle-Chevrolet Indy Car (No Reserve)
Stop everything. An actual AAR Eagle Indy car with documented Bobby Unser provenance, going at no reserve on this ex-Unser 1973 Eagle-Chevrolet Indy racer — that’s the kind of listing that makes you set a calendar reminder and stay off the phone. Bobby Unser is a three-time Indy 500 winner and one of the greatest open-wheel racers America ever produced, and the AAR (All American Racers) Eagles of the early ’70s are legitimately gorgeous machines. Whatever this thing brings, it’ll be the most interesting gavel drop of the weekend.
1981 Ferrari 512 BB Targa Conversion
The 512 Berlinetta Boxer is already one of the most visually arresting Ferraris ever made — a flat-twelve, mid-engined masterpiece from Maranello’s golden era — so whoever decided to give this one a Targa top was either a genius or a lunatic, and I respect both. This Targa-converted 1981 Ferrari 512 BB is going to be deeply polarizing in the comments: purists will wince, open-air enthusiasts will reach for their checkbooks. Either way, it’s a conversation piece on four wheels.
This Week’s Weird and Wonderful — September 4, 2026
BaT’s weekly oddball roundup is always worth a scroll, and this week’s Weird and Wonderful collection is the palate cleanser the auction world needs. Think of it as the fever dream between the serious lots — the place where kit cars, forgotten imports, and vehicles with genuinely inexplicable histories go to find their people. Never skip the Weird and Wonderful.
1978 Porsche 930 Turbo
The 930 Turbo is the car that earned the nickname “The Widowmaker” and absolutely wore it with pride — that turbocharged flat-six, the lag, the snap oversteer, the massive whale tail. This 1978 Porsche 930 Turbo lands right in the sweet spot of the model’s first generation run, and good examples have been climbing steadily in value for years. If you know how to drive one, you already know you want it.
10k-Mile 2004 Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale 6-Speed Conversion
The Challenge Stradale was Ferrari’s lightweight, track-focused version of the 360 — less sound deadening, more fire — and finding one with only 10,000 miles is already noteworthy. The 6-speed manual conversion on this low-mileage 2004 Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale is going to be the detail that splits the bidding room: some will love the added driver engagement, others will flag it as a deviation from factory spec. The market for CS cars has been strong regardless.
Three-Decades-Owned 1970 Pontiac GTO Hardtop Coupe 4-Speed
Thirty years with one owner on a 1970 GTO hardtop — that’s not just a car, that’s a relationship. The 1970 GTO is widely considered one of the best years for the model, and a 4-speed car adds serious driver appeal. This three-decades-owned 1970 Pontiac GTO 4-speed carries the kind of single-family history that tends to inspire confidence at auction, and the muscle car market has shown no signs of letting the Goat get cheap anytime soon.
2024 Ferrari SF90 Spider
From a 1970 muscle car straight into the future: the SF90 Spider is Ferrari’s plug-in hybrid hypercar with a combined output that makes your eyes water, wrapped in a body that looks like it was designed to appear to be moving even while standing still. This 2024 Ferrari SF90 Spider represents the current state of the art from Maranello, and seeing a nearly-new one hit the auction block suggests someone either spec’d it wrong or just moves in rarified financial orbit where flipping a hypercar is Tuesday. Either way, someone’s getting a deal.
1930 Ford Model A Roadster Pickup
Nearly a century old and still turning heads — the Model A Roadster Pickup is one of the most charming pre-war Fords out there, small and purposeful with a personality that modern trucks couldn’t buy with a marketing budget. This 1930 Ford Model A Roadster Pickup is the kind of thing you drive to a Saturday morning car show and leave surrounded by people who’ve forgotten all about the six-figure Italian stuff parked next to it. There’s a reason these never really go out of style.
1985 Maserati Biturbo Coupe 5-Speed
And here it is — the car for the person who looked at everything above and said “I want something with more character and cheaper parts.” I’m kidding, mostly. The Biturbo has had a rough reputation for reliability, but a sorted, well-maintained example actually drives beautifully and represents an era of Italian GT motoring that’s genuinely underappreciated. This 1985 Maserati Biturbo Coupe 5-speed is absolutely not for the faint of heart or the thin of wallet when it comes to maintenance — but the right buyer will think that’s exactly the point.
That’s your Saturday BaT rundown — Indy royalty, a fistful of Ferraris, a Widowmaker Porsche, an American muscle legend, and a Maserati for the brave. Auctions close on a rolling schedule, so keep an eye on the ones you care about and don’t blink at the wrong moment. We’ll be watching the Eagle most of all.
