- Finished in Signal Orange with brown cloth trim - 77,000 miles recorded, MoT to June 2016 - Twin Weber 48 carbs, Janspeed exhaust, Spax suspension etc. Ford's long awaited 'droop snoot' RS 2000 was launched at the Earls Court show of October 1975. It was the most luxurious of the sporting Escorts of the time (the others being the Mexico and RS 1800), and was powered by an uprated version of the 2.0-litre OHC Pinto unit employed in the Capri, Cortina and Granada - a four-into-two exhaust manifold coupled to a big bore exhaust system raising its output to 110bhp. This was sufficient to help sprint the Escort to 60mph in 8.5 secs and on to a top speed of almost 110mph. The stiff, but very effective, suspension included radius arms on the rear, and the foam-filled plastic snout and flexible rear spoiler were said to give a significant reduction in drag. Finished in very 'period' Signal Orange, the vendor advises its specification includes twin Weber 48 carburettors, road rally camshaft, World Cup cross member strut brace, Janspeed exhaust, Spax adjustable suspension, sunroof and original polished alloys. Registering some 77,000 miles it is described as being in "good" condition regarding its bodywork, engine and transmission with "clean" interior. Offered with MoT to June 2016.

PLEASE NOTE: Since the catalogue went to press we have been informed that this lot comes with a factory-supplied, fully-tailored car cover and has had its rear window seal's drain channel silicone filled in accordance with Porsche's recommendation. It has also had the upper section of its rear wheel arches 'rolled' and been fitted with a factory-supplied battery cut-off switch to its front compartment.   - Based on a manual C2 and reputedly just 20kg heavier than a factory RSR - Genuine RS engine mounts, short-shift kit and Steve Wong custom chip etc. - All work completed within the last 1,000 miles or so using genuine or OEM parts This stunning-looking RSR Club Sport Evocation is based on a C2 993 model with manual transmission but minus conditioning - it is reputedly only 20kg heavier than a genuine RSR but with more power! This comes from the combination of a Steve Wong custom chip (98-100 octane fuel), Fabspeed RSR exhausts (with cats), RS downpipe, motorsport airbox, and BMC filter. Among the myriad of other mechanical upgrades are: fully adjustable H&R suspension, including front and rear anti-roll bars, rose-jointed rear drop links and full set-up (including corner weighting) by Centre of Gravity, Nuneaton; strut brace; genuine Porsche RS engine mounts; short-shift gearchange kit; replica 18in Speedline alloys shod with Pirelli N-rated tyres. Inside can be found: a genuine RS gear lever and gaiter; radio blanking panel; centre console bin; 964 RS steering wheel and column surround; RS knee roll; bolt-in half cage; Shroth six-point harnesses; replica motorsport seats; complete OEM bodykit. Accessories that have been retained include electric windows, headlamp wash and electric sunroof, while items deleted are rear wiper, engine sump cover (the latter will be supplied with the car) and lower dash. The above work was completed less than 1,000 miles ago using genuine parts wherever possible, and OEM ones when not. This ultra-desirable Porsche has done little mileage over recent years but was recently serviced and comes with full maintenance history to 92,775 miles (the odometer now displays c.95,000 miles) courtesy of Lancaster Porsche and Porsche Centre Colchester, plus specialists RSJ and Parr. Also accompanying 'K999 RSR' are: an unused spacesaver; compressor; tool kit; document wallet; two sets of keys and fobs; all MOTs since 1999 and one valid to March 2016. The vendor currently classes the bodywork, Black paintwork, Black cloth interior, 3.6-litre engine and six-speed gearbox as all being in 'excellent' order. A very exciting proposition.

- Based on a 964-series Carrera 4 model with manual transmission. - Steve Wong custom chip. Engine overhauled, lightened and balanced - Keys, fobs, wallet / books, service history and numerous receipts etc This extremely purposeful-looking right-hand drive 911 is a Carrera RS Evocation based on a 964-series Carrera 4 model equipped with five-speed manual transmission. The bodywork is resplendent in classic Guards Red and the interior trimmed in Black leather/cloth. The specification is enough to set the mouth of any 911 aficionado watering and includes: KW 3-way suspension; strut brace; RS brake ducts and braided hoses, and Turbo 4-pot calliper upgrade; plus set-up by Centre of Gravity, Nuneaton. The engine was overhauled, lightened and balanced and benefits from a Steve Wong custom chip. It also features a sports exhaust and stainless steel de-cat pipe, as well as a sports filter and modified induction. The Club Sport-style interior includes reclining hard-backed/colour coded Recaro seats, red seat belts, scripted rear parcel shelf carpet, and aftermarket OMP sports steering wheel. As if the sound of the engine wasn't music enough, the Porsche also boasts a bespoke Bassmechanixs high quality sound system complete with memory stick feed. The original rear wiper, air conditioning system and engine bay heater assembly have all been deleted from the specification, but the sunroof and electric windows retained. The comprehensive early service history was carried out by franchised dealers as follows: Merlin (05/90, 2350 miles), Parkwood (05/93, 7655 miles), Rivervale (05/95, 12419 miles), AFN (09/96, 16652 miles), Evans Halshaw (07/97, 31352 miles; 10/97, 37319 miles; 03/98, 47970 miles; 08/98, 59436 miles; 04/99, 73842 miles; 09/99, 83984 miles), Stratstone of Wilmslow (10/00, 99084 miles) and Evans Halshaw (07/02, 110423 miles). 'B5 LWT' has now covered c.160,000 and the vendor presently considers the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, flat-six engine and five-speed manual gearbox to all be in 'excellent' condition, but notes that the tyres will need changing within a few thousand miles. This exciting 911 comes complete with MOT to April 14th 2016.

CHAMBERLAIN NEVILLE: (1869-1940) British Prime Minister 1937-40. A.L.S., N. Chamberlain, two pages, 4to, Kinloch Rannoch, Perthshire, 4th September 1934, to 'Dear George'. Chamberlain informs his correspondent that he is leaving for Aberdeenshire tomorrow and is sorry not to have had a further opportunity of availing himself to his correspondent's hospitality as he has been fully occupied, further commenting on the unsettled weather and writing 'I was shooting with Atholl yesterday. We got 83 brace but I believe if we had had a decent day we might well have got 120 brace. On Saturday I went with my son and another boy to one of Wentworth's lochs for the afternoon only. We had 2 in the boat & one fishing from the shore but as none of us had anything longer than gumboots we could not reach far enough to do much good. However we got 7 from the shore & 34 in the boat making 41 trout which weighed 13lbs 6ozs practically 3 to the lb. Wentworth was rather astonished so I suppose we were more than usually successful'. Holograph letters by Chamberlain are scarce. Some slight corner creasing and one small, minor tear to the right edge of the central fold, not affecting the text or signature, VG

Charles and his brother Christopher were born in the 1890’s and lived in the town of Marshfield, Gloucestershire, their parents ran the local shop “Bodman, Draper and Grocer”. At the outbreak of the Great War Charles at the age of 24 Volunteered joining the Gloucestershire Regiment and became one of the Bristol Volunteers, serving with the 12th Bn. After training he embarked for France with the Regiment landing on the 21st November 1915. During his time in France he was wounded on two occasions and in 1917 was selected for a Commission, which he was duly granted on the 25th September 1917, into the Durham Light Infantry. As a newly minted Second Lieutenant he returned to France to serve with the 15th Bn DLI, the ephemera in the trunk contains Trench Maps showing German positions and message pads he would have used at this time, plus a nominal Roll of men of his Company. He was Killed in Action on the 24th August 1918 whilst with the 15th Bn and has no known grave. His brother Christopher was three years younger and volunteered his services to the Machine Gun Corps, he served in France from 1917. While the two brothers fought in France, their parents continued to run the family shop, their father Walter died in 1917 and his widow Sarah continued the business. Like so many families the loss of a loved one fighting for King and Country is unbearable, it is only when you see how a despairing mother as in this case, kept every single fragment of her lost son’s life you begin to understand the personal cost of that telegram “Killed in Action”. Christopher survived the war and returned to Marshfield, and placed his tunic in the trunk, with his brothers and closed the lid. Alongside his Mother he returned to the counter of Bodman, Draper and Grocer and helped run the family shop until her death in the 1930’s. On inheriting the business, he pulled down the blinds, bolted the door and closed the shop, preserved as it was the day it closed. The shop would lay dormant through another World War until Christopher’s death in 1983, his last will and testament stating that the family shop must be sold by Public Auction on the premisses. The vendor remembered the shop in the town as a boy, always closed always a mystery. When the Archive went under the hammer he purchased it and it has laid as complete in his care for the last 32 years.
