Lot 280
Dodge Business Coupe Registration number: SV 4369 First Registered: 22-04-1993 (in UK) declared manufacture 1927. Mileage: 72534 Engine Size: 3478cc Colour: Blue Engine Number: D934708 Chassis Number: A845701 V5C present Horace and John Dodge founded the Dodge Brothers Company in Detroit in 1900, and quickly found work manufacturing precision engine and chassis components for the city's growing number of automobile firms. Chief among these customers were the established Olds Motor vehicle company and the new Ford Motor company . Henry Ford selected the Dodge brothers to supply a wide range of components for his original Model A, that included the complete chassis; thus Ford needed to add only the body and wheels to finish the cars. Dodges main selling attribute was 'dependability', also their cars were built extremely well , hardy and consistent. Like the Ford model T and A series they were also affordable. The Business Coupe was the industry's first all-coupe body powered by a powerful 3478cc unit and due to its reduced weight and styling was a very usable and fast machine in Dodges range. This 1927 example is presented in its original colour scheme of 'Gendarme blue', over black and has been the subject of a professional re-trim . On close inspection the bodywork is in excellent order, paintwork very smart. She sits on original pattern, white walled tyres which are in good order. All internal instrumentation is standard and correct as are headlamps and side lamps Mechanically the coupe is good, its 3.5 litre engine is in running order and gear change is smooth. This is a rarely seen example in this country and like a lot of American imports benefit from extreme originality, this example is no exception and for those enthusiasts that lean more towards the oily rag machine but in fine working order this would be an obvious choice. With the price of many European, pre 1930 cars losing their affordability the Dodge presents itself as the perfect Vintage Sports Car Club entrant upon obtaining a buff form from the club. Buyer's premium of 10% (+VAT) applies to this lot. Predominantly original car, repainted at some stage. Paint dull with some chipping. Starts and drives well.
Lot 287
Clément-Bayard Registration Number: G 5391 First Registered: 01-01-1921 (Manufactured 1914) Engine Size: 1056cc Colour: Green and Black Engine Number: LM3B21069 Chassis Number: 4M3B21069 V5C present Automobile pioneer and racer Adolphe Clément first made bicycles and, later, cars and aircraft. Born at Pierrefonds in the Oise district of France, in 1894 he set himself up in Charleville in Paris with his first bicycle factory ''La Macerienne'', as he named it. At first he made only components, then followed with Clément bicycles. The motor cars came in 1899, financed by the considerable fortune Clément had amassed from his bicycle business and his acquisition of the exclusive rights to Dunlop pneumatic tyres in France. Clément was also successful in plane and airship production. The initial model range comprised three models (9Hp, 12Hp, 16Hp) and was enhanced in 1904 with a 6Hp single-cylinder, a 7Hp twin-cylinder, and 14Hp, 20Hp & 27Hp 4-cylinders. In 1910 Clément-Bayard started to manufacture a stylish, low cost, small, two-seater roadster, with a 4-cylinder 10/12hp, and a heater for the driver and passenger. It was very popular, and production continued until the outbreak of war in 1914. Tennants are extremely honoured to offer this rare and beautiful example of Clément-Bayard's four cylinder tourer manufactured in 1914. In 1978 the car was proudly featured in the film 'The Thirty-Nine Steps' starring Robert Powell. The car was used as the getaway car from the village hall scene. This very early car was registered in Glasgow in 1914 and has, by all accounts, spent all its life in Scotland. When discovered many decades ago it was 95% complete, and with matching engine and chassis numbers was a rare find indeed. The restoration was a straightforward one focusing on recommissioning and painting, not major fabrication and the addition of any non-standard and difficult to source fixtures and fittings. Some of the wonderful originality can be viewed simply by raising the period Dickey seat, still with early leather and mechanism, it is an example of how the previous owner was passionate about maintaining the car's integrity. Of the very few early Clément-Bayards known, a great deal are the earlier and less powerful twin cylinder models. This particular example sports the sought-after four cylinder engine which makes the car extremely usable on the open road and giving it every chance of completing the many Edwardian regularity runs every year. This indeed represents the exotic and rare end of the spectrum as a VCC entrant and attracts crowds wherever it goes. Finished in striking green over black and painted in its correct craft master style coach paint with an array of brass brightwork, the Clément, now 105 years old, is as usable and mechanically sound as it would have been post-manufacture. Prices of Edwardian cars have been rising steadily over the last several years, prices pushed up by the ever increasing veteran market. With some pre-1905 Brighton eligible cars hitting the quarter of a million mark, the Edwardian market is one that many collectors are trying to tap into and with ever increasing events designed for the post veteran owner, this Clément offers a valuable passport to high profile events all over Europe. Sold with original, valuable cherished number and comprehensive history file, with photos and reference to its film star status. Buyer's premium of 10% (+VAT) applies to this lot. Predominantly original car. Older restoration, had painted in correct coach paint. Small dent to corner of brass radiator. Original interior and Dickie seat. Older tyres showing age. Starts and drives well.

Bentley Mulsanne Registration Number: B13 TMHMileage: 81,155First Registered: 01-08-1990Engine Size: 6750ccColour. Black Engine Number: 72853L4101/NELChassis Number: SBCZS00A2LCH33525V5C presentThe Mulsanne is the first flagship car to be independently designed by Bentley Motors in nearly 80 years. The last independently designed Bentley automobile was W.O. Bentley's 8 litre model in 1930, after which most Bentleys shared platforms with Rolls-Royce cars.The Mulsanne nameplate was last used by Bentley for a four-door saloon that was built between 1980 to 1992. It was resurrected as the nameplate for what would become the replacement for the Bentley Arnage, Bentley's then flagship model. In short the Mulsanne oozes class and style and powered by Bentleys wonderful 6.8 L Petrol engine with Automatic transmission, she was the height of luxury, driven by film stars and rockstars. This example is finished in imposing Black with sumptuous cream leather seats crowned with black piping. Every inch of its decedent interior finished to the highest standards only Bentley and Rolls Royce could offer. Mechanically sound and on the button she pulls well on the open road and her automatic box selects smoothly. Here is an opportunity to acquire a nice low mileage Mulsanne with room for cosmetic improvement at an extremely realistic estimate.Buyers premium of 10% inclusive of VAT @ 20%

Original vintage dealer showroom advertising poster for the 1965 Chevelle! America's most popular new-sized car! Corvette, America's sports car! Chevrolet, colloquially referred to as Chevy and formally the Chevrolet Division of General Motors Company, is an American automobile division of the American manufacturer General Motors (GM). Louis Chevrolet and ousted General Motors founder William C. Durant started the company on November 3, 1911 as the Chevrolet Motor Car Company. Durant used the Chevrolet Motor Car Company to acquire a controlling stake in General Motors with a reverse merger occurring on May 2, 1918 and propelled himself back to the GM presidency. After Durant's second ousting in 1919, Alfred Sloan, with his maxim "a car for every purse and purpose", would pick the Chevrolet brand to become the volume leader in the General Motors family, selling mainstream vehicles to compete with Henry Ford's Model T in 1919 and overtaking Ford as the best-selling car in the United States by 1929. The Chevrolet Corvette, colloquially known as the Vette or Chevy Corvette, is a front engine, rear drive, two-door, two-passenger sports car manufactured and marketed by Chevrolet across more than sixty years of production and seven design generations — with GM confirming in early 2019 an eighth generation Corvette in a mid-engine configuration. With its generations noted sequentially from C1-C8, the Corvette serves as Chevrolet's halo vehicle and is widely noted for its performance and distinctive plastic — either fiberglass or composite — bodywork. Very good condition, small tears and creases in margins. County: USA, year of printing:1965, designer: Unknown, size (cm): 102x150
