Sports Car Market just got exclusive news of four amazing cars that will star in Gooding & Company's January Scottsdale Auction. The cars are:

1953 Fiat 8V Supersonic from Sports Car Market

This completely original and unrestored car is one of twelve made, and it has had one owner since 1955. The car has just 18,000 miles from new.

"The extraordinary 1953 Fiat 8V Supersonic we are offering in Scottsdale is one of the most original cars we've ever brought to auction," David Gooding said.

"Bodied by Ghia, it is a superb example and only one of 12 "Otto Vu" Supersonic models ever created. This car has only been driven 18,000 miles since new, is in excellent condition and its unrivaled originality should make it a contender in any preservation class.

We were delighted to represent this marvelous car on behalf of its owner, who has cherished it for 55 years, and we expect that it will generate great interest among like-minded collectors around the world who are looking for museum-quality automobiles."

1948 Tucker barn find from Sports Car Market

This 1948 Tucker was recently found after it spent more than 50 years in a Pacific Northwest barn. This Tucker, serial number 1010, was once thought lost. It has 10,000 miles on the odometer. Records show that this Tucker raced at the Bonneville Salt Flats in the early 1950s and reached a top speed of 134 mph.

This ultra-rare barn find Tucker is in near-original condition and is expected to bring more than $1m when it crosses the Gooding block in Scottsdale.

1958 AC Ace Bristol from Sports Car Market

A matching-numbers 1958 AC Ace Bristol, one of less than 500, also will cross the Gooding block in Scottsdale. The car has undergone an award-winning restoration and is eligible for many of the top driving events in the vintage car world.

This car is estimated to bring $250k to $325k during the Scottsdale Auction.

1941 Chrysler Newport Dual Cowl Phaeton from Sports Car Market

Finally, Gooding will send a 1941 Chrysler Newport Dual Cowl Phaeton, with coachwork by LeBaron, into the Scottsdale lineup. This sleek, unique car was shown at the 2009 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It is expected to bring $950k to $1.3m.

Gooding & Company's Scottsdale Auction is scheduled for January 21-22 at the Scottsdale Fashion Square, which is at the corner of E.Camelback Road and N. 68th Street in Scottsdale, AZ.

The cars can be previewed from 9 am to 6 pm on Thursday, January 20 and on Friday, January 21. Preview hours on Saturday, January 22 are from 9 am to 5 pm.
