1964 Norton Electra Bike Year: 1964 Bike Make: Norton Bike Model: Electra Bike Reg No.: CPL918B Bike Frame No.: 800 Bike Engine No.: EL/800 Bike Colour: Black / Silver Norton`s range of lightweight twins had improved considerably from the original Jubilee 250 via the rather better Navigator 350 to the even better Electra 400. By 1964 this machine had a much improved gearbox, Roadholder forks and running gear from the heavier Norton machines and had shed the weight of a few square feet of tin sheet fairings and mudguards previously fashionable. Based around well proven gearbox internals and framework from AJS and Matchless models the ES 400 also boasted an electric boot and also the then futuristic novelties such as direction indicators, all this built around what was a basically well designed engine unit with great possibilities, although the public had not yet had the opportunity of doing the development testing usually required of them by the GBMI. The engine`s major failings (only of course if you consider excessive vibration, noisy mechanicals, oil leaks and rapid wear to be failings) could have been developed out and may have made the 400 a machine which could have helped repel the Japanese invasion. As it was the likes of Honda were well in advance with what were in reality much better motorcycles overall, although perhaps a little lacking in the braking department. This desirable example of an unusual Norton is from 1964 and looks to be in good condition under a few year`s storage grime. Nicely original in black and silver with an indicated 44400 miles showing on the Smiths speedo, CPL918B identified as the ES400 Electra. It is an opportunity to restore a very unusual and significant product of the British motorcycle industry, very suitable for those who prefer a light and easily handled machine.

1956 Ariel Square Four Bike Year: 1956 Bike Make: Ariel Bike Model: Square Four Bike Reg No.: 686 XUJ Bike Frame No.: AM421 Bike Engine No.: ML405 Bike Colour: Maroon When "The Motor Cycle" road tested an example of the newly introduced Ariel 4G Mark II Square Four during 1953 they summed up the machine in the following manner "A unique high-performance mount with gentle manners and outstanding acceleration". The Mark II had been introduced for the 1953 season incorporating a revised cylinder head to which two alloy inlet manifolds were bolted with separate exhaust pipes for each cylinder. Square Fours had, since their introduction, suffered from over heating rear cylinders under extreme circumstances which the revised cylinder head largely cured. A further benefit of the new head was an increase in power output to 40 bhp at 5,600rpm. The cycle parts were carried over from the Mark 1 but the colour changed to a light Wedgewood blue for a couple of seasons before reverting to the traditional red livery. A new one gallon oil tank, full width alloy hubs and a headlamp nacelle were introduced for the 1956 season establishing the Square Fours final form. This example was restored during 2009, both cosmetically and mechanically and is a fine example of the Square Four in its final form. The vendor informs us that it runs very well and he believes it to be correct in all major respects. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
1970 BSA A65 Firebird Bike Year: 1970 Bike Make: BSA Bike Model: A65 Firebird Bike Reg No.: Un-Reg Bike Frame No.: EC22387A65F Bike Engine No.: EC22387A65F Bike Colour: Red / Black During January 1962 BSA announced a new range of parallel twins to replace the ageing A7 and A10 machines. The new models, typed A50 and A65 for the 499cc and 654cc models respectively, featured a unit construction engine and gearbox with particularly clean lines. BSA had paid particular attention to the cylinder head design resulting in healthy power outputs despite comparatively low compression ratios, enabling the use of lower octane fuels and leaving scope for tuning in the future. A duplex cradle frame which drew on the companies experience with the pre unit machines in its design but featured a reduced wheelbase. Styling of the early machines reflected the house style established by the unit construction C series models that had been introduced for the 1959 season. Named the Royal Star for the A50 and Star for the A65 they were well received by the press and public alike, offering good handling and performance with a high level of comfort. 1964 marked the introduction of a higher performance variant, known as the Rocket, which when tested by the "Motor Cycle" achieved a top speed of 108mph. New high lift cams and an increase in the compression ratio to 9:1 accounted for the increase in power output which necessitated a revised, heavy duty clutch. The Rocket was marketed in the States as the Thunderbolt Rocket and was fitted with US style high bars and a small tank. It was complimented by three other models, the A65L/R Lightning Rocket which was fitted with twin carburettors with abbreviated side panels and two off road models in the form of the A50 Cyclone and A65 Spitfire Hornet. For 1965 the US range continued much as the previous year, although the Thunderbolt Rocket was dropped from the range as most buyers had opted for the A65L/R and the Cyclone and Hornet models were joined by "Clubman`s" versions equipped with rear-sets, close ratio gears and dropped bars. The range continued in much the same form for 1966 and 1967, with the Lightning and Thunderbolt, essentially the Rocket and Star with new names providing the basis of the range in the UK, and the Hornet and Wasp (which had replaced the Cyclone) supporting the road models in the States. They were joined by a new "super sports variant", the Spitfire. For the 1968 season the range was simplified. The Hornet was replaced by the Firebird and the Wasp was dropped. The Firebird reflected the change in American tastes, lightweight two strokes were starting to dominate the US off road market, displacing the British "desert sleds" that had previously held sway resulting in the off road orientated British twins becoming more biased towards road use whilst retaining some off road features. The new machine was essentially a Lightning fitted with a high level twin exhaust system and a smaller diameter front light. The Firebird quickly established itself in the market and became a feature in the range until BSA`s demise in 1971. The example of the Firebird offered dates from the models penultimate year of production. Described as being in as new condition throughout, it has benefitted from all new engine internals, new carburettors and electronic ignition. The numbers match and are correct for a Firebird dating from the 1969/70 season. It is offered without documents and the purchaser should note that the engine will require "running in".

c.1949 Jawa 500 SOHC Bike Year: c.1949 Bike Make: Jawa Bike Model: 500 SOHC Bike Reg No.: N/A Bike Frame No.: Unknown Bike Engine No.: Unknown Bike Colour: Red / Silver Jawa emerged from the Second World War with a technologically advanced single cylinder two stroke road machine that, according to history, was developed at the expense of the occupying German forces during the war. The company was also quick to develop a range of racing machines featuring twin cylinder four stroke power plants, both with and without superchargers. The machines offered dates from the period immediately following this but preceding the introduction of the double overhead cam twins that became familiar to Western enthusiasts during the fifties. The machine features a four stroke over head cam twin cylinder engine with a displacement of 488cc from a bore and stroke of 65 x73.6mm.The over head cam was driven by a vertical shaft on the right hand side of the engine. A four speed gearbox was built in unit with the engine with a chain primary drive and lubrication was of the dry sump type with the oil tank being mounted in front of the rear mudguard. Twin carburettors were fitted. The frame, which was obviously influenced by the unit employed by the road going 250 was unusual in utilising square section tubing in its construction and was fitted with a plunger rear suspension system and telescopic front forks. The example offered was purchased by the vendor in the Czech Republic and is described as being in good condition cosmetically. It formed part of a static collection prior to its acquisition by the vendor and has not been run whilst in his possession, however he suggests that the machines overall condition is indicative of it "needing only light commissioning work" prior to use. It is featured in both the "Evergreen Jawa 1929-1989" and "Motocyckly Jawa" by Mirosly Gomola. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
Greeves Prototype Rolling Chassis Bike Make: Greeves Bike Model: Prototype Rolling Chassis Bike Reg No.: Un-Reg Bike Frame No.: 419D Bike Engine No.: N/A Bike Colour: Blue During 1951 the "Motor Cycle" reported on the existence of a prototype Greeves roadster, failing to make mention of a second machines existence which was built as a scrambler. The most notable feature of the prototype was the suspension medium employed. A pivoted fork system was fitted at the rear, complimented at the front by a set of leading link forks which both employed rubber bushes in torsion to provide the springing. The early frame design was of tubular steel construction, nickel bronze welded throughout. The scrambler was campaigned by Frank Byford in Eastern Centre competitions. His participation led indirectly to the most famous and enduring feature of the Greeves motorcycle when Bert Greeves witnessed a repair being carried out to a Francis Barnett frame at a meeting. The frame downtube had snapped and was replaced by a solid piece of bar. Bert Greeves reasoned that a light alloy casting could replace the downtube offering advantages in strength and ease of production leading to the introduction of the famous I beam. The chassis offered is a prototype that presumably dates from the period between 1951 and 1953 and is offered complete with forks, wheels and mudguards. The engine plates are of steel construction instead of the alloy used on the production machines. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
1981 De Lorean DMC12 Car Year: 1981 Car Manufacturer: De Lorean Car Model: DMC12 Car Reg No.: ABW406X Car Chassis No.: SCEDT26TXBD005598 Car Colour: Stainless Steel Immortalised by its starring role in the film `Back to the Future`, the DMC-12 was the sole product of the DeLorean Motor Company that manufactured cars in Dunmurry, Northern Ireland from January 1981 until entering liquidation at the end of the following year. Some 9,000 examples were created, about 6,500 of which are thought to remain in existence. Impossible to confuse with any other car, the DeLorean was penned by Italian maestro Giorgetto Giugiaro and notable for its gullwing doors and unpainted stainless steel outer panels. Following pre-production problems, the vehicle was largely re-engineered by Lotus, resulting in a backbone chassis and running gear very similar to that of the Esprit. Power came from a rear mounted 2849cc V6 engine provided by the Peugeot-Renault-Volvo consortium. This gave 150bhp in European specification but some 20bhp less when equipped with emission equipment for the US market - the region in which most examples were sold. The positioning of the engine resulted in a weight distribution of 35F/65R. To keep production simple, there were just two options within the standard specification - the choice of manual or automatic transmission and either a Grey or Black interior. This car has automatic transmission and the popular Grey interior, but a unique story to tell. Manufactured in 1981, it was the first of 11 DMC-12s to be purchased from DeLorean`s receiver at a BCA auction at Blackbushe in 1982 and has remained in the same ownership ever since. Unregistered until this year, it has covered just 326 miles to date and is therefore presented in as-new condition. Its claim to fame is that it was employed in the promotion of Back to the Future and therefore played its part in cementing DeLorean`s short but dramatic history. Following some light recommissioning, this one owner, astonishingly low mileage DMC-12 is now offered with MOT into 2013. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
1969 Alfa Romeo Giulia 1300 Ti Car Year: 1969 Car Manufacturer: Alfa Romeo Car Model: Giulia 1300 Ti Car Reg No.: CHJ434G Car Chassis No.: AR1039659 Car Colour: Verde Muschio The boxy shape of the 105-Series Giulias belied a low drag coefficient superior to that of similarly aged Porsche 911s. Powered by 1300cc and 1600cc versions of the company`s ubiquitous all-alloy, DOHC, four-cylinder engine, the result was a performance Saloon capable of shaming many sporting two-seaters of the period. It`s perhaps no surprise that good examples of these delightful models are now highly collectable. The specification was straightforward - a four-door, three-box, lightweight (2,205 lbs) body powered by a front-mounted engine driving the rear wheels. The suspension was independent at the front and braking by servo-assisted discs all round. A slick five-speed manual gearbox ensured optimum performance and added to driver satisfaction. The Giulia 1300Ti (Turismo Internazionale) variant first saw the light of day in 1966 and was powered a mildly detuned version of the `twink` from the GT1300 Junior Coupe. Updates for 1968 included revised suspension geometry and rear anti-roll bar and a switch from 15- to 14-inch wheels. The well-presented left-hand drive 1300Ti on sale was manufactured in March 1969 and has had just three keepers to date. Following some light recommissioning by a well-known Alfa specialist - that included a new exhaust and tyres, and some re-bushing of the front suspension and restoration of the wheels - the car took part in the 2010 Alfa Romeo Centenary celebrations in Milan, during which it covered some 2,500 miles. It was then driven to a new home in the UK and re-registered as `CHJ 434G`. The vendor now considers the bodywork, Musk Green paintwork, Tan interior, engine and gearbox to all be in "good" order. He informs us that the coachwork "presents well" and that the underside is "in very good order, having been treated to wax protection". This delightfully original looking classic Alfa is being sold complete with MOT into March 2013. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
1974 Jensen Interceptor Mk3 Car Year: 1974 Car Manufacturer: Jensen Car Model: Interceptor Mk3 Car Reg No.: HLT355N Car Chassis No.: 9931 Car Colour: Blue Jensen`s striking replacement for the slant-eyed C-V8 first saw the light of day in 1966. It broke some of the firm`s established traditions in that the design was outsourced - to Carrozzeria Touring - and the bodies were made of steel rather than glass reinforced plastic. The early shells were also built in Italy, by Vignale, prior to a production line being established at Jensen`s plant in West Bromwich. Power was initially supplied by a 6276cc Chrysler V8, driving through either a four-speed manual or three-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission to an LSD-equipped Salisbury rear axle. The MKII model of 1969 brought revised frontal styling and ventilated disc brakes. Introduced at the October 1971 Earl`s Court Motor Show, the Interceptor III was visually distinguished by cast headlight surrounds, GKN cast alloy wheels and a comprehensively revamped interior and was produced in four Series - G, H,J and S4. By May 1972 the engines on RHD cars had been increased in capacity to a whopping 7212cc. A total of some 6,408 Interceptors were produced between 1966 and 1976. These distinctive-looking Grand Tourers were bought by celebrities as diverse as Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, British Foreign Secretary Lord Carrington and World Motorcycle Champion Phil Read. The previous owner of this J Series Interceptor III purchased it from marque specialist Cropredy Bridge Garage in 1980, with a guaranteed mileage of 12,000. The vendor acquired it in December 2010 but, like his predecessor, has covered very few miles in the car - as a result, the odometer currently still reads just 13,200 miles. In recent times ú12,000 has been invested in new sills, a bare metal respray and gearbox overhaul. `HLT 355N` comes complete with 17-inch Jensen alloys (plus the unmarked originals), rare factory-fitted sunroof, original first aid kit, unused toolkit, unused factory supplied gloves for changing the spare wheel, service history, documented mileage and an MOT into May.

1935 Bentley 3.5 Litre Sports Saloon Car Year: 1935 Car Manufacturer: Bentley Car Model: 3.5 Litre Sports Saloon Car Reg No.: BLY 26 Car Chassis No.: B36DG Car Colour: Black It is a sobering thought. Had Rolls-Royce not purchased its financially troubled competitor Bentley in 1931, the world would have been denied the Continental, Turbo R, Mulsanne and countless other iconic models subsequently graced with the `Flying B`. Of particular loss for many, would have been the coachbuilt Derby Bentleys manufactured between 1933 and 1939. Their chassis was derived from an experimental supercharged 2.75-litre Rolls-Royce (codenamed Peregrine) that never saw the light of day, and power came from a redesigned and tuned version of the company`s 20/25 engine, initially of 3.5-litres (3669cc). Fed by a pair of SU carburettors, it drove through a four-speed manual gearbox. The suspension was by semi-elliptic springs all-round and braking by servo assisted drums. The newcomer was introduced to the public in the appropriate surroundings of Ascot during August 1933, and production of these 3.5-litre cars continued into 1937; by which time 1,191 examples had been produced. The last year`s allocation was manufactured alongside the incoming 4.25-litre (4257 cc) version that would ultimately supersede the 3.5-litre cars. Coachbuilders and body styles were the preserve of the customer and the following are just a few of the illustrious firms engaged to clothe these fine cars: Park Ward, Barker, Vanden Plas, Thrupp & Maberly, Gurney Nutting, H.J. Mulliner, Hooper, James Young and Arthur Mulliner. The Derby Bentley on offer is a 1935 3.5 Litre Sports Saloon by Park Ward. The purposefully elegant coachwork is finished in Black and complemented by a Grey leather interior. `BLY 26` was reportedly treated to a restoration by Nixons of Braintree, Essex in 2006 and is now regarded by the vendor as having "very good" interior trim, engine and gearbox and "good" bodywork and paintwork. The Derby comes complete with working sunroof and is MOT`d through to April of next year. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
1935 Singer Nine Le Mans `Longtail` Car Year: 1935 Car Manufacturer: Singer Car Model: Nine Le Mans `Longtail` Car Reg No.: ALV 964 Car Chassis No.: 63855 Car Colour: Green Suitably encouraged by its enviable motorsport achievements of the 1932 and 1933 seasons, Singer created a special Le Mans version of the 9 Sports with a two-seater body mounted on an under-slung chassis - at ú215 it was ú30 dearer than the standard car. Power came from a further uprated version of the Sport`s 972cc OHC engine that featured high lift harmonic cams, a counterbalanced crankshaft and extra-large capacity ribbed oil sump for better cooling. Other drivetrain modifications included a heavy duty clutch and a still closer ratio gearbox. Its rakish bodywork was underpinned by a robust ladder-frame chassis that featured semi-elliptic leaf-sprung suspension all-round, adjustable Andre-Hartford friction dampers and four-wheel Lockheed hydraulic 10-inch drum brakes. Among the optional equipment were tailored suitcases, bonnet strap, route card holder, competition number plates and a combined stop watch and chronometer. Appreciating that some of the customers clamouring for the performance of the Le Mans model needed a sports car with more than two seats, the company introduced a limited run of four-seater examples during the 1935 model year. Effectively a hybrid of the Le Mans and the 9 Sports, they featured upswept cowl scuttles and a streamlined (`Long`) tail. According to its accompanying copy build record, this particular example was supplied new by the Newsham Motor Company of Liverpool to C.K. Williams Esq of Leopold Road, Waterloo on August 3rd 1935. A Liverpool resident ever since, the Singer passed to its second keeper Ray Stokes - President of the Chester Vintage Car Club - in 1967. Stripped down circa eight years later, the Nine`s restoration proved a long drawn out affair that was only completed by Mr Stokes` daughter last year (the car had originally been intended as her twenty-first birthday present). The work included: some attention to the engine; a new exhaust; body off respray; retrim; new carpets, hood and tonneau cover, and repainted wire wheels. Complete with such period niceties as headlamp grilles, badge bar, scuttle light, bonnet strap etc, `ALV 964` is now ready for a new owner to enjoy. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com
1984 Daimler DS 420 Limousine Car Year: 1984 Car Manufacturer: Daimler Car Model: DS 420 Limousine Car Reg No.: B55 AUC Car Chassis No.: SADDWATL3AC200549 Car Colour: Dark Grey Daimler`s DS420 was produced between 1968 and 1992 and was effectively the replacement for the Majestic Major-based DR450 and the ubiquitous Austin Princess. An imposing-looking executive limousine it served as an official state car in many countries - not least for the House of Windsor. It also found favour with numerous embassies, local authorities, funeral parlours and up-market hotels (eg the Inter-Continental in Hong Kong alone is said to have purchased 22 DS420s over the years). It was based on a lengthened version of the Jaguar 420G platform and powered by a 4.2-litre, 245bhp derivative of the DOHC straight-six race-proved XK engine. Notable roles for examples of the model have ranged from serving as the hearse and mourning limousine at Princess Diana`s funeral and providing transport to Heathrow Airport for Commander Bond and Moneypenny in the 1997 film Tomorrow Never Dies. A total of some 4,116 DS420s were produced. The right-hand drive DS420 being sold was first registered on August 29th 1984 to a Sheik (who would later become a prominent member of his country`s government), care of the Qatar Embassy, Chesham Place, London. It is finished in a suitably stately shade of Dark Grey and has a Light Grey leather interior. It comes complete with 1984 bill of sale for ú30,000 and a letter from Jaguar that rather unfortunately refers to The State Of Batar rather Qatar! Up until 1998 it was regularly serviced by nearby H. R. Owen. There are also a couple of service stamps in the name of R.A. Creamer & Son for 2004 and 2005, since when the Daimler would appear to have had very little use. In apparently very good overall condition, `B55 AUC` is now being sold complete with an MOT valid into March of next year. A smart limousine seemingly ready to provide many years` service.

Bernhard Siegfried Albinus (1697-1770), whose father Bernard Albinus was also a medical scientist and a professor of medicine at the University of Leiden, was one of the greatest anatomists of the 18th century. His most important work was the Historia Musculorum Corporis Humani published in 1734. The present short work is an examination of the structure of black or Ethiopic skin pigment identified by Marcello Malpighi (1628-1694). One of the first colour-printed anatomical illustrations ever published, being one of six anatomical illustrations produced by by Jan L`Admiral (1698-1773) for Albinus for separate publications. The painter Jan L`Admiral and his brother Jacob worked in the London studio of mezzotint colour printing inventor Jacob Christoph le Blon, although L`Admiral presented the technique as his own when he offered his services to Albinus in Leiden.

Norman 257, Duveen pp. 83-84 and Lindeboom 444 for the first work. Boerhaave`s 1724 edition of Institutiones et experimenta chemiae, bearing a Paris imprint, was probably published in Leiden. This spurious edition of Boerhaave`s chemical notes so incensed Boerhaave that on 9 October 1726 he published a warning in the Leydische Courant against booksellers selling such works, and on 25 October asked the academic Senate for help in protecting him from any further abuses at the hands of unscrupulous printers and booksellers. He also later countered the work with an authorized chemical textbook, the Elementa chemicae (1732), which remained the authoritative chemical manual for many years. All copies of the Elementa carried Boerhaave`s autograph signature, attesting to the work`s authenticity and protecting against pirated editions` (Norman). (27)

Burton (John). An Essay Towards a Complete New System of Midwifery, Theoretical and Practical. Together with the Descriptions, Causes and Methods of Removing, or Relieving the Disorders Peculiar to Pregnant and Lying-in Women, and New-born Infants... in four parts, 1st edition, 1751, eighteen etched plates (17 folding) by George Stubbs, a few strengthened along folds to verso) light toning and offsetting, previous owner signature erased from title (with surface abrasion), library stamps, BMI presentation label from Dr Smallwood Savage, modern calf-backed boards, 8vo, together with A Letter to William Smellie, M.D. Containing Critical and Practical Remarks upon his Treatise on the Theory and Practice of Midwifery.

Burton`s rival, the eminent London man-midwife William Smellie, had published his warmly received Treatise on the Theory and Practice of Midwifery in 1751, with Burton reacting with his critical Letter to William Smellie above. Burton was satirized as `Dr. Slop` in Laurence Sterne`s Tristam Shandy, following political differences with York clergyman Dr Jacques Sterne (Laurence`s uncle and prominent Whig) and accused of treason during the Jacobite Rising of 1745.
