An old tin cabin trunk, COLLECT ONLY.

Registration No: GF 5087Chassis No: 46163MOT: ExemptSupplied new by Col. Sorrel to 'Montmorensie' and subsequently the property of J.M. Carrick, J. Montgomerie, A.R. Gooda, R.J. Rickards, D.E. Crowther and the vendorOriginal chassis, engine and transaxle. Front axle understood to be of Molsheim manufacture but no number discernedDecidedly elegant Weymann coachworkThere is no doubt ‘La Petite Royale’ succeeded where ‘(La Grande) Royale’ failed in terms of cementing Bugatti’s status as a luxury motorcar manufacturer; little wonder then that the model was reputedly among Ettore’s favourites. Le Patron would surely have approved of this particular example – chassis 46163 – too on the basis that it sports a scaled-down version of the magnificent semi-panelled Weymann Coach body which adorned his personal Type 41 ‘Royale’ when it won the 1929 Grand Prix d'Honneur Concours d'Elegance complete with ‘letterbox’ windscreen, kick-forward A-pillar, D-back and asymmetric rear windows. Invoiced to UK concessionaire Colonel Sorrel on 7th January 1930 for the princely sum of FF63,000 (including FF2,570 of extra fittings), the two-door Fixed Head was delivered a month later. Issued with the London number plate ‘GF 5087’ on April 2nd 1930, the Type 46’s first owner is simply recorded as ‘Montmorensie’ who we presume to have been the artist Sir Miles Fletcher de Montmorency, 17th Baronet Morres of Knockagh. Deriving an income from his Irish estates but residing in the English Capital, de Montmorency seemingly kept the four-seater until 1939/1940 when it was bought by Rodney Clarke Esq. for a mere £30! The co-founder of renowned Bugatti and Maserati specialists Continental Cars (and later Connaught), Clarke believed chassis 46163 to have been the Type 46 that he loaned to Cecil Clutton and Laurence Pomeroy for a test drive which was subsequently written-up in the April 1942 issue of Motor Sport magazine. Hand- and typewritten correspondence on file also reveals that ‘GF 5087’ was the car in which Pamela Clarke ‘missed being born by five minutes’ during 1943.Migrating to Scotland thereafter, the close-coupled four-seater belonged to J.M. Carrick Esq. of Coldstream, Berwick and then John Montgomerie Esq of Castle Douglas. The latter acquired it in 1954 and as the proprietor of James Gordon (Engineers) Ltd set about a ‘chassis up, body off’ restoration. Amazingly, much of the work is chronicled via a series of accompanying black and white photographs. Done on a piecemeal basis, the project had yet to be completed when Robert Prosser (acting on behalf of Robert Gooda Esq.) tracked the Bugatti to Castle Douglas during 1973. In two minds about selling, Montgomerie asked what he felt was an overly ambitious £4,000 for chassis 46163 and was somewhat taken aback to be pretty much handed a deposit there and then. Custodian for less than a year, Mr Gooda had the Type 46 re-registered as ‘GF 5087’ but apparently did little else prior to his premature demise. Advertised for £6,500 in the Thursday February 21st 1974 issue of Exchange & Mart, the Bugatti had in fact changed hands earlier that month being bought by R.J. Rickards Esq. Entering into correspondence with Mr Montgomerie, Mr Rickards received a wealth of information about the mechanical overhaul and was even sent the water pump. The engine is the original factory-fitted unit and is clearly stamped with the numbers ‘79’ and ‘195’. The former is the actual engine number, while the latter is the assembly number (and not that of a correct-type replacement, as had been previously posited). Mr Rickards would own the Bugatti for no less than thirty years during which time he repaired the ash frame, had the fabric panelling renewed in Blue by coachbuilder I. Wilkinson & Son of Derby and retrimmed the interior etc but, like his predecessors, did not finish it. Sold to its previous keeper Douglas Crowther Esq via the agency of Gavin McGuire Fine Automobiles in 2004, the Type 46 was further improved with all six of its alloy wheels being expensively refurbished before entering the current ownership a decade later.An automotive engineer by profession whose career took him all over the globe on various troubleshooting and project management missions, the vendor has had a lifelong passion for motorcars. Inspired by a petrolhead stepfather and racing driver mother, he has undertaken numerous restorations over the years and still has a 1932 Alvis which has been in his family since new. As well as completely rewiring the Weymann Coach including rejuvenating the ignition system (no mean feat given the lack of available information on the twin-plug set-up), he has had the instruments restored and the interior trim completed. Thought to have begun life with Marchal lighting, ‘GF 5087’ switched over to Scintilla components early in its life (the fuse box and horn are marked Scintilla too). More original than many surviving Bugattis, chassis 46163 has recently been inspected by the marque historian and Honorary Registrar of the Bugatti Owners’ Club, Mark Morris. Keen to be as authentic as possible in his endeavours, the seller has persisted with the Smith-Bariquand carburettor and reinstated the full-length running boards (a task made easier by the presence of the factory mounting holes). The ‘Metro Fully Flush Sliding Roof’ remains in situ and operational. Although a going concern, ‘GF 5087’ has yet to be run-in and / or de-bugged since the completion of its protracted, seven-decade, refurbishment. Housed within an engine-turned aluminium panel, the Jaegar instruments encompass a 150kmh speedometer and zeroed odometer.Aesthetics are subjective but we consider chassis 46163 to be among the most attractive Type 46s to have survived. Our sentiments being presaged by Cecil Clutton in Motor Sport eighty-two years ago: ‘This particular car is undoubtedly one of the most handsome ever, as is universally agreed by all beholders . . . The body is a two-door, four-light Weymann, with a large travelling trunk behind. The wheels are of the aluminium type. Some 5-litres are rather “lumps” in appearance, but this one is essentially “sleek.” An overall height of only 5’ 3”, as against a wheelbase of no less than 11’ 6”, largely contributes to the exceptionally fine appearance’. The potential jewel in many a collection and a fabulous opportunity for Bugattistes everywhere, this glorious ‘Petite Royale’ is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, history file, Mark Morris report and spare block (which was purchased from marque specialist ‘Ivan Dutton’ on a ‘just in case / you never know’ basis).For more information, please contact:Damian Jonesdamian.jones@handh.co.uk07855 493737

Great Indian Peninsula Railway Coffee Pot, A Copeland Spode Porcelain Coffee Pot, white ground, decorated with blue and gilt decoration, with the Crest of the Great Indian Peninsular Railway 1849 to centre, Condition: body excellent condition, no losses , lid with small chip to lug The Great Indian Peninsula Railway (GIPR), which later evolved into the Central Railway under the umbrella of Indian Railways, had its headquarters at the Boree Bunder in Mumbai, known today as the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus. Established on 1 August 1849 through the Great Indian Peninsula Railway Company Act 1849 (12 & 13 Vict. c.83) by the Parliament of the United Kingdom, it started with a share capital of £50,000. In a significant move, on 21 August 1847, the GIPR entered into a formal contract with the East India Company to construct and operate a 56 km long railway line. This line aimed to serve as part of a crucial trunk line connecting Bombay with Khandesh and Berar, thus establishing vital transportation links across various presidencies of colonial India. The Court of Directors of the East India Company appointed James John Berkeley as the Chief Resident Engineer, with Charles Buchanan Ker and Robert Wilfred Graham serving as his assistants. Their expertise was instrumental in the successful execution of the project. The inauguration of the GIPR marked a milestone in India's transportation history, as it became the country's first passenger railway. The initial 21 miles (33.8 km) section, connecting Bombay (now Mumbai) and Tanna (present-day Thane), commenced operations in 1853, heralding a new era of railway travel in the subcontinent. On 1 July 1925, the management of GIPR was transferred to the Government, signifying a shift towards greater state control in the railway sector. Eventually, on 5 November 1951, the GIPR was merged into the Central Railway, consolidating its operations within the broader framework of India's national railway network.
