Leland Little Auctions Is Selling a Great Collection of Collector Automobiles April 29th

A diverse lineup of classic and collector vehicles is set to cross the block as Leland Little Auctions prepares for its upcoming Collector Car Auction on April 29. The sale will feature a range of automobiles spanning multiple eras, with live-online bidding opening at 12:00 p.m. and pre-bidding already underway.

At the heart of the auction is a focus not just on the vehicles themselves, but the stories behind them—something that continues to define the collector car hobby as much as performance or rarity.

Collector Stories: Dedication & Joy Over the Decades
“Some cars have stories about their history and development that should be told, these cars have stories about their owners that need to be shared.” – Mark Terry, Estate & Collector Vehicles Director

Spend a moment with Estate & Collector Vehicles Director, Mark Terry, as he shares the compelling stories behind a few standout lots in our Collector Car Auction. From the spirited Sunbeam Tiger, a lightweight V8-powered sports car once affectionately described by its owner as a “dude magnet,” to a striking Jaguar E-Type finished in beautiful Willow Green with just 68,000 miles, each vehicle offers its own distinct blend of character, rarity, and history. Also featured is a 1964 Plymouth Valiant, notable as the first V8 introduced by Plymouth and especially meaningful for its remarkable origin, having remained in the same family since it was purchased new in 1964. Rich in provenance and full of personality, these examples offer a glimpse into the stories, performance, and charm that define this impressive sale.

Beyond these highlighted vehicles, the auction is expected to include a broader mix of collector-grade automobiles, each bringing its own background, ownership history, and appeal to potential buyers. Events like this often draw attention not only for standout models, but for the opportunity to uncover unique stories tied to long-term ownership and preservation.

From well-known classics to lesser-seen finds, the April 29 sale continues the trend of auctions serving as a meeting point for both seasoned collectors and new enthusiasts looking to enter the hobby.

From iconic classics to rare finds, experience these vehicles and many more in the Collector Car Auction, which opens for live-online bidding on Wednesday, April 29 at 12:00 p.m. Pre-bidding is available now.
