1961 Jaguar E-Type 3.8 'Flat Floor' Roadster PLEASE NOTE: The vendor is unhappy with the way the passenger door on this lot now closes. He has volunteered to have the door adjusted by XK Engineering should a new owner so wish. - Highly desirable 'flat floor' model with matching chassis and engine numbers (1 of just 1,582 made) - The subject of much recent restoration work by renowned marque specialist XK Engineering - Among the finest examples we have encountered Famously launched at the 1961 Geneva Salon, the Jaguar E-Type created a furore. With its stunning looks, outrageous performance and low price tag, the newcomer left rivals reeling and customers clamouring. While, early competition success at the hands of Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori amongst others helped cement its reputation. Built as a monocoque with an engine cradling front sub-frame, the model's combination of all-round independent suspension (torsion-bar front / coil-sprung rear) rack and pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes gave it excellent roadholding and handling capabilities. Fed by triple SU HD8 carburettors and topped with a 'straight port' DOHC cylinder head, its 3781cc straight-six engine was quoted as developing some 265bhp and 260lbft. Allied to a four-speed Moss gearbox, the free-revving unit reputedly enabled the E-type to sprint from 0-60mph in 6.9 seconds and onto 150mph. Seemingly borrowed from a light aircraft, the wonderful turned aluminium centre console that adorned its dashboard was complemented by scalloped 'Dunlopillo' seats and a wood-rim steering wheel. Achingly beautiful yet viciously quick, the E-type remains for many the ultimate production Jaguar. While any roadster is desirable, the so-called 'Flat Floor' cars enjoy a particularly exalted status. Dating from early in the production cycle before Jaguar responded to popular demand and had footwell recesses pressed into the model's previously 'Flat Floor' platform so that it could better accommodate tall drivers, they arguably represent the automotive icon in its purist form. Just 1,939 'Flat Floor' Roadsters (357 RHD, 1,582 LHD) left the Browns Lane factory and some fifty-years' worth of attrition means that survivors are not only scarce but also highly sought after. According to its accompanying Jaguar Heritage Production Record Trace Certificate, this particular example - chassis 876192 - was built on 23rd November 1961 and despatched to Jaguar Cars' New York distribution hub eight days later. Originally finished in Carmen Red with Black leather and a Black hood, it was supplied new by Falvey Motors of Ferndale, Michigan to W.H. Mansfield. Migrating to the more car-friendly climate of California thereafter, the E-Type was repatriated by the vendor during late 2014 on the understanding that it was 'rust free' and comprised 'all factory sheetmetal, no cut out or replacement panels'. Said to be a 'nice driver' at the time, the two-seater was nonetheless entrusted to renowned marque specialist XK Engineering of Coventry with instructions that they restore the 'Flat Floor' Roadster to its former glory. Stripped back to bare metal and re-profiled as necessary, the bodywork was then painstakingly resprayed in its original Carmen Red hue. The interior was retrimmed in Black and thus adhered to factory specification too. Attention was paid to the wiring, fuel system, exhaust, brakes, steering and suspension with numerous components being repainted as well as refurbished. The brightwork was renewed or re-plated and a brand new Black hood installed. Considerable time and effort was spent on ensuring that the opening panels (bonnet, boot, doors) fitted properly and sat well within their apertures. Rubber seals were replaced throughout and the wire wheels shod with fresh Avon tyres. In keeping with XK Engineering's ethos, the wood-rim steering wheel was refurbished rather than replaced because it was deemed to be the one with which the car had left Browns Lane! Pleasingly retaining its original 'matching numbers' 3.8 litre straight-six engine, the E-Type was upgraded whilst Stateside with one of Jaguar's more user-friendly four-speed all-synchromesh gearboxes. Not long emerged from XK Engineering's workshops, chassis 876192 is worthy of close inspection and a testament to their craftsmanship.

Its two-door, four-seater, fibreglass hatchback bodyshell was designed by Oliver Winterbottom. The newcomer was powered by an equally new Lotus engine, the all-alloy DOHC four-cylinder 907 unit of 1973cc and drove through the rear wheels via a five-speed manual gearbox. As tested by Motor magazine, the Elite was capable of sprinting to 60mph in around 7.8 seconds and on to a top speed of around 125mph. The handsome interior was the work of Giugiaro. This right-hand drive Elite 501 left the Hethel factory in 1979 and sports Silver fibreglass bodywork, Black leather interior and is a 1 owner example from new being supplied to the vendor by D.C Cook of Doncaster. Having covered just 33,500 miles the Elite has recently been serviced after a period of dry storage and MOT'd into April 2018 with no-advisory's.

1973 Jaguar E-Type V12 Roadster- An original righthand drive example evidently benefitting from an earlier restoration and repaint- Maintenance work by well-known Jaguar specialist and JEC technical Director Ken Jenkins- Five-speed gearbox, Powerlock differential, high torque starter and Gaz adjustable dampers'The turbine-like smoothness with which the engine provides a sustained shove in the back is almost uncanny, the more so when one accelerates hard in top gear without even a gearchange to interrupt one's headlong dash into the distance' - Autocar, July 5, 1973 By 1971, the E-Type had been in production for a decade and new emissions legislation in the all-important American market was threatening to strangle the big cat's performance. Jaguar responded by giving its revered sports car fresh claws in the shape of a 5343cc V12 engine developed from the stillborn XJ13. With some 272bhp and 304 lb ft of torque on tap, the E-Type once again had 150mph in its sights. A revised wheelbase yielded better cabin space and, together with wider tracks front and rear, new anti-dive front suspension geometry and fatter tyres gave improved road holding. Imbued with a more muscular stance thanks to its flared wheelarches, re-profiled wings and larger grille, it also benefited from vented disc brakes and a restyled interior.This handsome Roadster hails from 1973 and is finished in the strident combination of Red bodywork and Black leather interior. An original righthand drive example, it has evidently benefited from an earlier restoration and repaint, and has covered just 6,000 miles in the last decade. It has been in the current ownership for four years, during which all maintenance work has been carried out by well-known Jaguar specialist and JEC technical Director Ken Jenkins. The E-Type boasts a range of desirable upgrades, including: five-speed gearbox, Powerlock differential, high torque starter, Gaz adjustable dampers, and halogen headlights. A new windscreen was fitted in 2014. The vendor presently views the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, 5.3-litre engine and manual gearbox as all 'very good' and is including 11 old MOTs and a current MOT into September.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1966 Jaguar E-Type Roadster- Fitted with 3.8-litre engine and Moss gearbox- Ex-USA car, restored 1999 - 2009, RHD conversion- Jaguar Dark Blue with Burgundy interior and blue hood and tonneauAccording to its accompanying JDHT Certificate, this Series One 4.2 E-Type Roadster was manufactured on 14 September 1966 and subsequently sold to its first owner, Thayer Bentley Hawkins of Youngstown, Ohio, via distributor Jaguar Cars, New York. Originally finished in Primrose with black interior, the last recorded US owners were also residents of Ohio. Falling into disuse and requiring restoration, the car was imported to the UK in December 1988. At some point, a 3.8-litre engine and Moss gearbox were installed and the car converted to RHD.Around 1999, as a rolling shell, it was purchased as a 60th birthday gift by the previous owner's wife and given to her husband. He duly set about completing the restoration for which detailed notes of works carried out are recorded in a note book contained in the history file along with an album of photographs and a large amount of receipts for parts. According to an entry by him on website 'xkedata', the body restoration had already been completed by the importer. Due to spending their winters in the Florida sun, progress was slow and the project would not be completed until 2009 / 2010. Repainted in Jaguar Dark Blue and retrimmed in Burgundy leather with a blue mohair hood and tonneau, some mechanical works (including comprehensive overhauls of the engine and gearbox) were carried out by Swallow Engineering of Basildon. Finally, in August 2010, the car was driven on the road for the first time in over thirty years. Acquired by the vendor in 2013, it has been used sparingly and cossetted in a carpeted garage.Whilst some cosmetic improvements could be made, FHJ 645D performed extremely well on a recent short test drive, as would be expected due to the minimal mileage covered since completion. A desirable Series One E-Type ready to be enjoyed, it is also offered with Swansea V5, MoT to June 2018, owner's handbook, service manual and spares catalogue.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1961 Lotus Elite S2- Supplied new to Gilby Engineering and raced by Keith Greene in period- Recent comprehensive restoration by Mk14 Components, blue with black interior- 5 speed Ford Type 9 gearbox, offered by renowned Lotus enthusiast and collector"The road manners of the Elite come as near to those of a racing car as the ordinary motorist would ever experience" (Autocar, May 1960)Unveiled at the1957 London Motor Show, the Elite (Type 14) was not only Colin Chapman's first production road car but also the world's first fibreglass monocoque (a contributory factor to its reputed 684kg kerb weight). Perhaps influenced by the FIA's recently introduced 1300cc GT racing class, the newcomer's specification included F2-derived all-round independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes (inboard at the rear). Powered by a Coventry-Climax SOHC four-cylinder engine mated to four-speed manual transmission, its amazing 0.29 cd allowed all but the basic variant to claim a top speed of over 120mph. The work of Peter Kirwin-Taylor, aerodynamicist Frank Costin and John Frayling, the coupe's super sleek silhouette is still considered a masterpiece. Unsurprisingly, given its radical design (and Chapman's budget constraints), the first running prototype did not emerge until May 10th 1958. Driven straight to Silverstone by Ian Walker, it promptly won a production sports car race against 1600cc opposition. As successful abroad as on British circuits the Elite won its class at Le Mans every year from 1959-1964. Although, the contract to manufacture the Type 14's innovative GRP monocoque was initially entrusted to Maximar boatbuilders, it was transferred after 280 or so units to the Bristol Aircraft company. Coinciding with revisions to the rear suspension layout, an improved interior and increased engine power, this switch heralded the emergence of the Series Two in mid-1960.Chassis 1471, a Bristol bodied car, was delivered new in January 1961 to Formula One team Gilby Engineering for Keith Greene to compete in sports car events and, we understand, was fully prepared for racing by Lotus themselves. Conversations with Keith Greene subsequently confirmed its competition life was a brief one due to teething problems and the weakness of the early suspension pick up points. The car was returned to the factory for this to be rectified. The car was then sold on, being registered as a road car in December 1961. At this time, it retained the full race bottom end, initially with an MG gearbox fitted, before the original ZF unit was purchased from Gilby and reinstalled. It then changed hands in 1964 and again in 1965 before being put into long term storage around 1966 by the then owner who always intended to recommission the car. Work commitments prevented this and it was acquired by the previous owner from him in 2006. The original engine and ZF gearbox having disappeared over the years, a full restoration was finally commenced. The Chassis Body Unit was repaired and painted in metallic blue and a new sub frame fitted, whilst the FWE Climax engine was completed to a high standard with a steel crank, lightened flywheel and forged pistons. It was also converted to accept unleaded fuel. Running on twin 40 DCOE Webers, power output was recorded as a healthy 105bhp. Cooling is provided by an all alloy radiator with an 11" electric fan. A Ford Type 9 five-speed gearbox was also fitted. With similar ratios to those found in the ZF unit and a fifth gear, the car is capably relaxed and quite at home in modern traffic conditions. Other modifications include rose joints on the rear suspension, a 50 amp Dynator in place of the original dynamo and retrimming of the seats and door cards in black leather. Completed in 2014, it was purchased by the vendor, a renowned Lotus enthusiast and collector, directly from Mk14 Components Ltd and is only being offered for sale due his recent acquisition of another example. The car has recently had an MOT inspection, valid until June 2018. It has also received a full Service in June of this year, from Tolman Motorsport. Invited to the 60th anniversary celebrations at Castle Combe in May, it will afterwards be featured in Classic & Sportscar magazine. A fully restored example with period race history, 1471 ticks all the right boxes and should appeal to Lotus collectors everywhere.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1964 Austin-Healey 3000 MKIII- The original sales invoice shows this splendid looking Austin-Healey 3000 was sold new to a lady in Tucson, Arizona, in July 1964- Appearing to remain with the original owner until being sold in August 1989 and promptly exported to England, converted to RHD, and registered in June 1990- Only two UK owners who both invested significantly in the matching-numbers car with the right people to make it a fabulous example in looks, sound, and drivabilityThe original sales invoice and Arizona title documents on file for this fabulous looking Austin-Healey 3000 MKIII (Phase 1) show it was ordered on July 18th 1964 from Precision Motors in Tucson for delivery that Sunday at 1:00pm. It was titled to two ladies, and seeing as Nancy Lee Burks was just 25 years old at the time, it is presumed that Mary was her mother and perhaps the shiny Colorado Red British sports car was a very generous 25th birthday present. The car did not stray far during its life in America, as after being supplied by Precision Motors (a company that is still thriving today as Toyota dealership) for the sum of $4,254.65 including a radio and taxes, Nancy Lee lived just a few blocks away from Precision and retained the car until 1989 by which time she was fifty years old and her maiden name of Burks had become Thomas.After selling the car in August 1989 it appears the car was promptly exported to England and converted to right hand drive, presumably by Barrie Richards of Barries Garage, Smethwick. Sold by Barries Garage (trading as Bellbrook Limited) in August 1990 to a Mr Grant Nowell-Mitchell of Pershore, its history since is well documented by its two enthusiastic UK owners.Mr Nowell-Mitchell preceded to use the car sparingly over the summer months for the next few years, and upon extracting the car from the garage in 1999 it was apparent that a furry creature had enjoyed nibbling away at the original black vinyl interior. 1999 proved to be an expensive year as a new black leather interior was installed in August along with the fitment of Minilite style road wheels, and in November the engine was sent somewhere to be fitted with new pistons, camshafts, aluminium radiator, triple Weber 45 carburettors, and a stainless-steel exhaust manifold and system.However, a mechanical failure resulted in Mr Nowell-Mitchell requesting the Austin-Healey experts Denis Welch Motorsport to build a Fast Road Engine for him. During 2001 and 2002 over £15,000 was spent on the car building the engine with steel crank and rods and performance inlet manifolds as well as many other engine works, plus thoroughly overhauling the suspension. The gearbox is reported to have received attention but no invoice is available, whereas the invoices from Denis Welch thoroughly detailing the works are in the file.The vendor (an historic racing competitor aboard a Ford Mustang) purchased the car from Denis Welch Motorsport in September 2011 after Mr Nowell-Mitchel is believed to have passed away. After Denis Welch carried out a service the car was sent to world renowned historic racing experts Blakeney Motorsport for fast-road and light competition preparation. During the next two years over £22,000 were spent on the car on works such as fitting competition front and rear wheel hubs, larger front brake discs and callipers, uprated rear brake drums, fitting a superb sounding side-exit exhaust, modifying the driver's seat to offer extra side support, new rear suspension springs, a new steering box, and an overhauled rear axle with new LSD unit. To complete the works, the paint was refreshed in late 2012.After taking part in events such as the 2012 VSCC Pomeroy Trophy at Silverstone, Goodwood Road Racing Club (GRRC) Spring Sprint at Goodwood, Aston Martin Owners Club Summer Sprint at Goodwood, and the 2013 VSCC Pomeroy Trophy and GRRC Spring Sprint, and car was retired from competitive work and has since been used as an extremely enjoyable road car.This is a thoroughly sorted, super looking, and fabulous sounding Austin-Healey 3000 that has had an extraordinary amount of love and money lavished upon it by the best names in the historic car world. There can only be a few 3000 MkIII's out there that have their original supplying documents, are presented in their original colours, still have their original matching numbers engine, plus have had such significant recent expenditure. This is one of them.Accompanying the car are the previously mentioned original sales invoice and Arizona title documents, plus a British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate (which states overdrive, wire wheels and a heater as the main extra equipment), the previous owners detailed account of his ownership dated October 2010, the front and rear bumpers, about fifteen previous MOT certificates, and a comprehensive number of invoices from Denis Welch Motorsport and Blakeney Motorsport detailing all the work carried out on the car.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1990 Jaguar XJ-S 5.3 Convertible- Offered with its original wallet, handbooks and service book containing 20 entries- Current MOT certificate into June 2018- Described as being "good" with regard to its engine, transmission, interior trim, bodywork and paintworkIntroduced in Autumn 1975, the XJS replaced the immortal E-Type on the production lines and in the Jaguar catalogue. Powered by the famously silken 5343cc V12 engine, it was mainly specified with automatic transmission (a manual was available until 1979 but few were sold). Further development included the introduction of the Cabriolet model in October 1983 together with a brand new 3.6 litre engine, and then the launch of a full Convertible bodystyle in April 1988. With a full convertible roof the XJS's somewhat unusual styling finally acquired the elegance and presence expected of a Jaguar and with the standard 5.3 litre engine it backed this up with true sports car performance. Finished in Black with cream leather upholstery, this particular example is described by the vendor as being in "good" condition with regard to its engine, automatic transmission, interior trim, bodywork and paintwork. Offered with its original wallet, handbooks and service book containing 20 entries plus a collection of old Tax discs `G902WKJ' has a current MOT certificate into June 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1985 Adams Roadster- One of about 17 Jaguar XJ based Adams Roadsters constructed between 1986 and 1999- Comprehensive history folder containing original brochure and price list, many maintenance invoices, previous MOT's and tax discs, and copies of previous V5C's- Upgraded from original 2.8 to current 4.2 engine during previous ownership and recently maintained by leading Jaguar specialists Twyford Moors and Classic Motor CarsThe Adams Roadster was designed by ex-Lister man Dennis Adams who was responsible for dramatic designs such as the Probe 16 used in the film A Clockwork Orange, and some of the classic Marcos designs. The Roadster was produced in very limited numbers, with only around 17 believed to have been constructed between 1986 and 1999. They were apparently available with Jaguar straight-six engines in several capacities, with the 4.2 being the most popular.This Adams Roadster was acquired by the titled vendor in November 2015 with a view of exporting it to his home in Sri Lanka, but sadly a change in the importation laws soon afterwards meant that the car has remained at his City of London residence. The previous owner had purchased the car in August 2012 and undertook a lot of work on the car, notably replacing the original 2.8 twin-carburetted engine with a 4.2 triple-carburetted unit. A letter on file informs that the 4.2 engine was "refurbished" prior to installation with new gaskets, timing chain, alternator, and 4.2 clutch, plus the overdrive unit was "overhauled". A triple SU carburettor set-up completed the transformation. The previous and current owners have had the car maintained by leading Jaguar experts such as Twyford Moors and Classic Motor Cars (CMC), and the vendor describes the car as having "very good" paintwork and interior trim, and "excellent" bodywork, engine, transmission, and electric equipment. The car is supplied with a comprehensive history file featuring an original Adams Roadster brochure, a price list, and a magazine road-test, plus many maintenance invoices, previous MOT certificates, tax discs, and copies of previous registration documents.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1982 Chevrolet Corvette- Imported from the US in 1989 and attributed to the current registered keeper in 1998- New battery, brake overhaul plus oil and filter change- Displaying a credible 31,579 milesThe third generation Corvette (C3) came to market in 1968 and was continually developed until the all new C4 model of 1984. While the engine and chassis components were mostly carried over from the C2, the interior and most striking of bodies were all new. The exterior design was a development of that penned by Larry Shinoda under the guidance of Bill Mitchell for the Mako Shark II concept car. Finished in Red with a Black interior its understood 'GKF907Y' was imported from the US in 1989 and attributed to the current registered keeper in 1998. Displaying a credible 31,579 miles this later Cross Fire injection example has just been subject to a new battery, brake overhaul plus oil and filter change after spending a long term period in dry storage. Offered with V5 and a collection of old MOT certificates the vendor currently grades the bodywork, paintwork, engine and gearbox as 'Very Good' and the interior trim as 'Good'. This smart looking Vette is offered with a fresh MOT certificate.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT (@ 20%)

1975 Rolls-Royce Camargue- 1 of just 525 Camargues made and 34,500 miles from new- Purchased by the mercurial Raymond Way on 18th June 1975 for £29,250 as a 'used' car (it was initally the Jack Barclay demonstrator)- Current family ownership for the past 20 years and 6,000 milesWhen launched in March 1975, the Camargue was the world's most expensive production car; for the price of which you could have bought five Jaguar XJ6s or 26 Minis! Styled by Paolo Martin of Pininfarina, it was the first post-WW2 Rolls-Royce not to be designed in-house. The model's sleek two-door coachwork was crafted in London by Mulliner Park Ward and power was provided by an uprated version of Rolls-Royce's 6750cc V8 engine mated to Turbo Hydra-Matic 3-speed automatic transmission. Between 1975 and 1986 just 525 Rolls-Royce Camargues were produced (plus one bearing Bentley badges).Finished in Richmond Blue with Turquoise leather upholstery, chassis JRH18624 initially served as Jack Barclay Ltd's demonstrator before being bought on 18th June 1975 by the mercurial Raymond Way whose career encompassed: Brooklands racing driver; RAF pilot; proprietor of Shackleton Aviation; Lloyds underwriter; boxing and wrestling promoter; farmer; Radio Luxembourg motoring correspondent; Home Guard soldier with Tommy Trinder; fairground barker; and renowned car / motorcycle salesman. Even 'used' the Camargue cost a staggering £29,250 with £14,000 being made as an allowance against Mr Way's Phantom VI! The accompanying history file is packed with fascinating correspondence between Mr Way and Victor Barclay giving a true glimpse into a bygone era. Another letter on file dated 7th April 1997 simply states: 'This vehicle was registered in the name of the TWR Group in order to transfer the registration number '1 RW' and was not used by ourselves'. Entering the current family ownership that same year via marque specialist Colbrook, the Rolls-Royce has covered just 34,500 miles from new. One of just 65 cars to utilise twin SU carburettors, it is described by the vendor as being in 'very good' (bodywork, paintwork, interior trim) or 'excellent' (engine, automatic transmission, electrical equipment) condition. A notably early, low mileage Camargue with a fabulous provenance, 'YJL 621' is MOT'd until June 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT (@ 20%)

1943 Ford GPW Jeep- Part of a private collection for the last ten years and used at various Goodwood Revival meetings- Treated to an extensive 'chassis up, body off' restoration by a previous keeper- UK road registered since 1960 and understood to be ex-British Armed ForcesArguably more iconic than a Sherman Tank or P-51 Mustang, the Jeep is for many the definitive WW2 vehicle. Equipped with a torquey L-headed 2.2-litre engine driving all four wheels via a three-speed manual box and two-speed transfer case, the tough, go anywhere four-seater did its job exceptionally well. By the end of the war, 647,870 Jeeps had been produced - 281,448 of which were manufactured by Ford. According to a brass Ministry of Supply plaque affixed to its inner wing, this particular example - chassis GPW95571 - previously bore the British military registration number '19-YH-26' and was treated to an overhaul in March 1955 (some four years before the Ministry was disbanded). Demobbed and granted the civilian number plate `XOR 633' by Hampshire County Council on 8th February 1960, photographs on file suggest that the Jeep underwent a `chassis up, body off' restoration in the past. Accompanying invoices from Jeep & Dodge Specialist Dallas Auto Parts of Newbury show that penultimate keeper M. Haynes had them overhaul the brake system, fit a new engine timing chain, carry out a total rewiring, install a new winter canvas kit and supply a new dynamo etc between 1999 and 2004. Subsequent custodian Christopher Golding of Bristol is understood to have further improved the Ford before selling it to the vendor in 2007. Part of an impressive private collection for the past decade, `XOR 633' has been used to entertain his grandchildren and as period transport at the Goodwood Revival etc. The springs have been exchanged, a transfer case oil leak cured and the engine overhauled in 2014 (reground crankshaft, re-honed bores, new pistons / rings / valves) but otherwise he has not had cause to touch the Jeep which still presents very well. Among the smarter examples we have encountered and boasting a UK history that dates back to the 1950s, it has charm aplenty!PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1930 Morris Minor OHC Coachbuilt Saloon- Rare surviving Coachbuilt Saloon complete with folding 'Kopalapso' roof- Advanced overhead camshaft engine inspired by a WW1 aeronautical Hispano-Suiza design and shared with the MG M-Type sports car- The subject of much past restoration work but pleasingly retains its original rubber running board inserts and 'cammy' engine etc- Brown leatherette upholstery, opening windscreen, brand new 12volt dynamoIntroduced at the October 1928 Olympia Motor Show, the Morris Minor was conceived as an altogether more sophisticated rival to the Austin 7. Influenced by a Hispano-Suiza World War I aero engine design, the newcomer's advanced overhead camshaft 850cc four-cylinder powerplant was shared with the MG M-Type sports car. Like a big car in miniature, the Minor featured a ladder frame chassis equipped with all-round semi-elliptic leaf-sprung suspension and four-wheel drum brakes. Available with a choice of open or closed bodywork, the coachbuilt steel saloon derivative was elegant, practical and well-finished. It could also be specified with a fold-back 'Kopalapso' roof for those who wanted to augment the airflow offered by the standard fit opening windscreen. Faced with a marginal per unit profit margin and instances of oil leaking down the drive shaft from the camshaft bevel into the dynamo (a non-issue these days thanks to modern 'O' rings), Morris decided to launch a cheaper sidevalve version during 1931. Thus, just 39,087 'Cammy' Minors were produced over a four-year production run.Finished in Maroon over Black with Brown leatherette upholstery, this particular Coachbuilt Saloon example sports a winged calormeter, 'Kopalapso' fold-back roof, rear-mounted spare wheel and what appear to be the original rubber inserts to its running boards. First road registered as 'WE 9758' by Sheffield County Council on 14th October 1930, the diminutive four-seater has self-evidently been treated to much past restoration work. Further improved by the vendor thanks to the installation of a new 12-volt dynamo, the Morris started readily upon inspection and looks to pleasingly retain its factory-fitted engine (number U29724). A quite delightful Vintage Saloon, this rare surviving 'Cammy' Minor is offered for sale with workshop manual and original instruction book.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1975 Volkswagen Trekker 182- Treated to a ground-up restoration over a period of eighteen months- Five spoke chrome wheels shod with General Grabber all-terrain tyres- History file including old MoT's, invoices and CD's of photographs taken during the restorationA rare survivor, this Volkswagen 182 Trekker was treated to a ground-up restoration over a period of eighteen months. As repair panels were not available the originals were repaired or new ones made from scratch. The car was then sprayed with Galvafroid zinc-rich, anti-corrosion coating and a layer of underseal applied to the underside. During the restoration, a custom-made roll-cage was installed, the ride-height raised by 2" and five spoke chrome wheels shod with General Grabber all-terrain tyres fitted. Finished in sand with camouflage cloth interior, other military items were incorporated into the restoration including a water bottle on the bulkhead and shovel under the bonnet. Mechanically, the 182 has been fully overhauled and according to a magazine article, the engine capacity increased from 1600cc to 1641cc. The exhaust system gives a note resonant of a V8! Offered with full weather hood and side windows, V5C registration document, MoT certificate valid until May 2018, and history file including old MoT test certificates, invoices, a copy article about the car and restorer and CD's of photographs taken during the restoration.

1929 Bugatti Type 44 Vanvooren Saloon- Extensively restored by Wilkinsons Coachbuilders of Derby from 1990-94 and 8,500 miles since- Exquisite Vanvooren saloon body began life aboard another T44 that was supplied new to Jean Jacques Peugeot (of the car making dynasty)- Beautifully detailed with unusual triple-hinged doors and among the most delightful Vintage Saloons we have encountered"This Bugatti is decidedly sporting; yet it is just as emphatically smooth and sweet, and the flexibility on fourth speed is remarkable. When I ran Bugattis for two and a half years, I thought myself quite lucky if I got more than 400 or 500 yards of fourth speed in London . . . This 3 litre straight eight could be driven from 'The Bear' at Esher to Aldgate Pump on fourth speed, using third only for restarting after traffic lights. It is just as refined as it is fast; just as amusing a car in the hands as ever the little beggars were . . . For what my judgement is worth, the 23.6hp Bugatti is one of the five best, most interesting, most friendly, companionable and altogether delightful motorcars that can be bought in London today" (Edgar Duffield in the Automotor Journal, 1928).Introduced at the October 1927 Paris Salon, the Type 44 was heralded by Motorsport magazine as Bugatti's "first serious attempt at a Touring car". In the best Molsheim traditions, much of its exquisitely crafted running gear was common to other models. Thus, the new arrival's chassis was essentially carried over from the preceding Type 38, while its circular front axle, spiral-bevel back axle, four-speed manual gearbox and multi-plate clutch were derived from the Type 40 / Type 43 models. An acknowledged masterpiece, the Type 44's 2991cc straight-eight engine was based around two cast-iron cylinder blocks (complete with non-detachable heads) and boasted a centrally-driven single overhead camshaft that operated twenty-four valves (sixteen inlet / eight exhaust). Running in nine plain bearings (as opposed to the five roller ones used on the Type 35B etc), its finely balanced two-piece crankshaft endowed the unit with enviable smoothness and flexibility. Quoted as developing 80bhp, it was reputedly capable of running at anything from 125rpm to 4,500rpm. Praised for its pliant ride, taut handling and excellent refinement, the Type 44 rode on leaf-sprung suspension (semi-elliptic front / reversed quarter-elliptic rear) and benefited from self-compensating cable-operated 330mm drum brakes. Bodied by the likes of Kellner, Weymann, James Young, Vanvooren and Molsheim itself, the Type 44's 3122mm wheelbase and 1250mm track played host to some wonderfully stylish coachwork. A typically strong performer - Motorsport magazine coaxed an indicated 95mph out of Colonel Sorel's fabric saloon - the model also proved to be Bugatti's most commercially successful car with some 1,095 rolling out of the factory gates between 1927 and 1930. Prized by enthusiasts worldwide, some led more adventurous lives than others (Norbert Jean Mahe drove his modified Type 44 to ninth overall but second in class at the 1934 Le Mans 24-hour race). Little more than ten percent of Type 44 production is thought to have survived to the present day. Indeed, this particular example owes its continued existence to two siblings which donated their original engine and coachwork respectively. According to renowned Bugatti historian David Sewell, chassis 44667 was delivered new to London and first registered as 'MT 1338' by Middlesex County Council. Although the identity of its first owner is a mystery, the Type 44 is known to have belonged to Eric Tutton Esq. of Hayfield, near Stockport by the late 1930s. Confronted with cracked cylinder blocks, Mr Tutton jettisoned the original 3-litre straight-eight engine in favour of a much smaller four-cylinder Bugatti 'Brescia' one. The replacement powerplant served for some 50,000 miles thanks, in part, to some frame rail shortening and the fitment of a lightweight tourer body (taken from a Riley Lynx).Acquired by dealer David Baldock Esq. some years later, chassis 44667 then passed to James Taylor Esq. (minus its second engine but complete with front / rear axles and gearbox). A Dover-based scrapyard owner, Mr Taylor retained the car until his death in 1980. Entering the current ownership a decade later, the original chassis frame was returned to its correct dimensions with the assistance of Mr Sewell who also helped source another Type 44 3-litre engine (ex-chassis 441192). As the then proprietor of the well-regarded coachbuilding / restoration firm Wilkinsons of Derby (established 1904), the vendor could have had any body design he fancied crafted for the Bugatti. Instead, he chose to rejuvenate the wonderfully elegant Vanvooren saloon coachwork that had initially adorned Jean-Jacques Peugeot's Type 44 (chassis 44694). A member of the car making dynasty, Monsieur Peugeot took the enclosed four-seater off the road when World War Two broke out during September 1939.Unfortunately, his chateau at Montbeliard was subsequently occupied by German forces who one day used the Bugatti for target practice leaving tell-tale bullet holes in its doors. Returned to Monsieur Peugeot after the cessation of hostilities, the Type 44 remained with him until 1962 when it was given to 'Jabbo' Klopper of the Netherlands. Mr Klopper chose to re-body chassis 44694 and thus its Vanvooren coachwork was acquired by Wolf Zeuner. A friend of Mr Sewell, the latter had been drawn to the saloon body not only because of its unusual patina but because of its elegant lines and high quality construction.Unlike several of its peers, Vanvooren body number 2154 featured triple rather than double door hinges. Whether or not the Courbevoie-based coachbuilder was trying to curry favour with the Peugeot family by taking extra care over its fabrication is an intriguing but unproven hypothesis. Photographically documented, the refurbishment of 'MT 1338' took some four years to complete (1990-1994) and included a thorough overhaul of its correct type but replacement engine. Covering some 8,500 miles since then, the Bugatti has been on several tours and remains a credit to its restorers. Starting readily upon inspection, it is quite simply among the nicest detailed and most appealing Vintage Saloons that we have encountered.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1967 Volvo P1800 S- Much restoration work in 2016 including sills, floor and outriggers- Glass-out repaint, White with original Red leather interior- Striking similarity to the final car featured in the 1960s TV series 'The Saint'Based on a design exercise by the Swedish-born Pelle Petterson whilst working at Frua, the Volvo P1800 sports car was officially unveiled at the January 1960 Brussels Salon. Not entering production for a year, the newcomer's sleek two-door monocoque bodyshell was equipped with independent front suspension, a coil-sprung 'live' rear axle and disc / drum brakes. Powered by a 1782cc OHV four-cylinder engine breathing through twin SU carburettors, allied to a four-speed manual gearbox, it was capable of over 100mph.The P1800 was immortalised in the 1960s TV series 'The Saint' starring the late Roger Moore and this lovely righthand drive UK example bears a striking resemblance to the last car used on the show (NUV 647E), even down to the unusual driving lamps. During filming, Moore used a Pearl White example upholstered with red interior as his personal transport.In 2016 the car was the subject of much restoration work including attention to the sills, chassis, floors and outriggers, followed by a glass-out repaint in white. Retaining its original red leather interior which is described as being in "good" condition, the odometer now displays some 92,600 miles. We are advised the bodywork, paintwork and panel gaps are all "excellent", whilst much of the chrome has been replaced. Both engine and transmission with overdrive are said to be "working well" and this stylish coupe rides on period style Minilite wheels. It is expected to possess a fresh MoT in time for the sale.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT (@ 20%)

1963 Ford Zodiac MKIII- Genuine 40,000 miles from new with substantial history file including 19 MOTs- Recent expenditure includes new carburettor, fresh tyres (x4), auto gearbox overhaul and engine top end refurbishment- Said to 'drive well and never welded', MOT tested until September 2017This very smartly-presented automatic transmission example of Ford's third generation Zodiac has apparently covered just 40,302 miles from new - an average of around 750 miles a year! Finished in White with a Red roof and interior trim, it is presently regarded by the vendor as having 'good' bodywork, paintwork, upholstery, straight-six engine and gearbox. He adds that the Ford is 'very reliable, drives well and its automatic gearbox changes as it should'. Within the last four years '5523 RU' has been treated to a new carburettor, a top-end engine and gearbox overhaul and four fresh tyres, and is now being sold complete with a two inch thick folder of invoices and no less than 19 old MOTs, plus a current one valid to September 27. Now a very rare sight on our roads, the MKIII Zodiac was Ford's top of the range model from 1962 to 1966 and would have cost c.£1000 to buy new.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

2005 Hummer H2- 13,600 recorded miles and private 'H2 HVE' registration- The high specification includes aftermarket 24" alloy wheels with new tyres and 2006 spec interior- The Vendor currently classes the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and gearbox as 'very good'Hummer was a brand of trucks and SUVs, first marketed in 1992 when AM General began selling a civilian version of the M998 Humvee. In 1998, General Motors purchased the brand name and marketed three vehicles: the original Hummer H1, based on the military Humvee, as well as the H2 and H3 models that were based on smaller, civilian-market GM platforms.Finished in black with a black leather interior 'H2 HVE' was first registered in the UK in 2005 and was acquired by the current keeper in 2008. The high specification includes aftermarket 24" alloy wheels with new tyres, 2006 spec interior with heated and electric seats and rear 6th seat option. The vendor currently classes the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and gearbox as 'very good' and it is offered with an MOT certificate into May 2018.

1949 Dodge Wayfarer Roadster- Presented in Aircruiser Red allied to Beige upholstery- Understood to have been fully restored in 2011- Imported into the UK from Canada, where it had been a multiple trophy winnerLow-cost two-seat Roadsters were plentiful and popular on the American market in the `20s, but somehow fell out of favour. So, in an attempt to spice up an otherwise rather lacklustre line-up 20 years later, Dodge hit upon the idea of turning the clock back and including a basic Roadster within its new 1949 Wayfarer range, that also comprised a two-door Saloon and Business Coupe and, of 63,816 Wayfarers sold that year, 5,420 were Roadsters. The emphasis was on fun and affordability, so the specification included a single bench-type front seat and relatively rudimentary hood. Power was provided by an L head straight-six engine of 3.8-litres. Those lower than hoped-for first year sales were put down to the post-war public requiring more creature comforts that their predecessors, so for 1950 the Roadster was slightly up-specced and renamed the Sportabout. As the required targets were still not met, the model had been dropped from the range by 1952, but there is no doubt its initial inclusion had created some much-needed interest in the otherwise rather tired Dodge brand and, as is so often the way (think MG C for example) the Roadster, the model that never quite took off in period, is now the most sought after of the Wayfarer family.The delightful 1949 example now offered was imported into the UK from Canada, where it had been a multiple trophy winner. It is understood to have been fully restored in 2011, work that included the fitment of new glass throughout and a fresh interior. The Dodge is presented in Aircruiser Red allied to Beige upholstery and the vendor these days classes the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and manual three-speed transmission as all being in `Excellent' order. He says it `runs and drives very well' and is selling the car with MOT into June 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl. VAT (@ 20%)

1953 Lagonda DB 2.6/3.0 Litre Drophead Coupe- Supplied via Brooklands of London to Sir Peter Ustinov CBE FRSA and notable as the renowned actor / writer's first new car purchase- Built as a 2.6 litre model but uprated with a 3 litre engine by the factory in November 1954 (and a four star diff three years later)- Retained by Ustinov for twelve years and current ownership since 1968- Engine overhauled in 1997 and veteran of numerous Continental trips- 'NLO 950' quite possibly inspired HRH The Duke of Edinburgh to order his own Lagonda 3 Litre Drophead Coupe given that both he and Ustinov were members of The Thursday ClubNotwithstanding Lagonda's commitment to the war effort, their chief engineer W.O. Bentley - ably assisted by W.G. Watson and Donald Bastow - began work on a new car in early 1944. Conceived as a sports saloon, the resultant design boasted an innovative chassis equipped with all-round independent suspension and hydraulic drum brakes (inboard at the back). Powered by a DOHC straight-six engine featuring hemispherical combustion chambers, its flowing lines were partially attributable to Frank Feeley. Unveiled to an enthusiastic press in September 1945, production plans for the exclusive `2.5 Litre' were stymied by Lagonda's inability to negotiate sufficient steel supplies given the prevailing `export-or-die' atmosphere. Unable to recover financially, the marque was bought by industrialist David Brown in 1947. Merged with Brown's other recent purchase Aston Martin, the two companies operated out of the latter's Feltham premises. In addition to donating its powerplant to the nascent Aston Martin DB2 programme, the `2.5 Litre' was developed in its own right. Fitted with a David Brown S430 four-speed synchromesh gearbox, rack-and-pinion steering and hypoid back axle, it reappeared at the October 1949 Earls Court Motor Show as the DB Lagonda 2.6. Highly regarded but expensive, the model evolved through a MKII version and reputedly accounted for just 511 sales (386 saloons and 125 drophead coupes) before giving way to the DB 3 Litre in 1954. Marque concessionaire Brooklands of Bond Street are understood to have purchased the last sixteen DB 2.6 MKII chassis and had them bodied as a mixture of fixed-head and drophead coupes by Tickford Ltd of Newport Pagnell. The resultant six 'tin tops' and ten 'soft-tops' presaged the styling of their equivalent DB 3 Litre successors exactly. The last 'Brooklands of Bond Street' Drophead Coupe made, chassis LAG50/536 has the further distinction of being the first new car bought by Sir Peter Ustinov, CBE FRSA, the acclaimed raconteur, writer and star of stage and screen. Born Peter Alexander Freiherr von Ustinov on April 16th 1921 in Swiss Cottage, London, his ancestral connections ranged from Russian nobility to the Ethiopian Royal Family! Fluent in Russian, French, Italian, German, and English, Ustinov befriended David Niven whilst serving in the Royal Sussex Regiment during World War Two and HRH The Duke of Edinburgh when all three were members of The Thursday Club. Indeed, it is quite probable that Sir Peter's purchase of 'NLO 950' inspired Prince Phillip to commission his own Lagonda DB 3 Litre Drophead Coupe (which we sold last year for a world record price of £346,800). A true car enthusiast, Ustinov returned chassis LAG50/536 to its maker to be fitted with a larger 3 Litre engine in late November 1954 and a four-star differential some three years later. Part of his stable when he won Best Supporting Oscars for Spartacus (1960) and Topkapi (1964), the Lagonda is known to have belonged to Coleman & Sons of Coalville, Smith Capell & Company of Northampton and Breedon General Services Ltd of Derby before entering the current family ownership during 1968. Re-trimmed in Grey leather the following decade, the Drophead Coupe received a new hood during 1986 courtesy of Northampton-based coach trimmer R.A. Waite. Invited to take part in the Display of British Coachwork Commemorating the Centenary of the British Motor Industry at Hagley Hall in the West Midlands on May 11th 1996 by The Worshipful Company of Coachmakers and Coach Harness Makers of London, the four-seater was treated to an engine overhaul some twelve months later. The cylinder liners showed remarkably little wear (.002thou) but the crankshaft was re-ground and new main / big-end bearings installed etc. The clutch friction plate and a propshaft universal joint (ahead of the gearbox) were renewed at the same time too. A stainless steel exhaust was commissioned for the car during 2000 and remains in situ. Damage to a rear wing prompted a full respray in 2001 which was carried out by Aston Martin specialist Four Ashes Garage Ltd of Stratford-upon-Avon. The colour chosen was a close match to the Lagonda's original Metalichrome Gulf Blue livery but some sixteen years on the finish has deteriorated. The same year also saw the radiator refurbished, while more recent fettling has seen attention paid to the dynamo (2005), water pump / gearbox oil seal (2006) and cylinder head (2011). The vendor proudly tells us that 'NLO 950' has never failed a MOT test during his forty-nine year stewardship and attributes its longevity to the basic excellence of W.O. Bentley's design and the extensive use of wear resistant phosphor bronze fittings for the steering and suspension etc.Driven to the Continent on an annual basis up until a few years ago, chassis LAG50/536 started readily upon inspection and behaved well during our photography session. The seller is understandably reluctant to say goodbye after nearly fifty years but feels a new custodian should be given the opportunity to either enjoy the 'Brooklands of Bond Street' car 'as is' or restore it to its former glory. A decidedly rare and elegant motorcar with a great provenance. Offered for sale with copy factory build / maintenance records, numerous bills and current MOT certificate valid until April 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1969 Austin Mini Cooper MKII- Built on March 10th 1969 and supplied new via Murray and Charleton Ltd of Middlesborough- The subject of an extensive 'bare metal' restoration from 2010-2011 - A 'matching numbers' example that retains its original bodyshellIntroduced in Autumn 1967, the MKII version of the Mini Cooper had lost none of its predecessor's vim or driving appeal. Powered by a 998cc four-cylinder A-series engine allied to four-speed manual transmission, it was still capable of humbling many a more exotic sportscar when the going got twisty. According to its accompanying British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate, this particular example was built on March 10th 1969 and despatched to Murray & Charleton Ltd of Middlesborough the following day. Originally finished in Tartan Red with Black upholstery, the Austin was acquired by its previous keeper, Robert Russell of Chelmsford, during November 2009. Having ascertained that the Mini retained its original bodyshell, engine and gearbox, Mr Russell set about an exhaustive 'bare metal' restoration which took over a year to complete (March 2010 - April 2011). An understanding of the lengths he went to can be gleaned from viewing the blog section of www.bornagaincars.com. Suffice to say that the refurbishment would have been wholly uneconomic if Mr Russell who is a System Engineer for the Ford Motor Company had entrusted it to a third party! A testament to the quality of the bodywork rejuvenation, the finished car apparently required no adjustment when checked with laser wheel alignment equipment. Mr Russell overhauled the engine and gearbox too as well as paying attention to the interior, steering, suspension, electrics, carburettors and subframes etc. A real labour of love, the Cooper was acquired by the vendor in April 2013 as a 'starter classic' for his children. Sadly, they have not taken to it and aside from some sunny day outings 'NXG 805G' has been little used. Deemed by the vendor to be 'very good' with regard to its engine, gearbox, electrical equipment, bodywork, paintwork and interior trim, the Austin remains a fine testament to Mr Russell's skill.

1973 Alfa Romeo Montreal- Recent mechanical work by Montreal specialists Super Engineering- White with black velour interior, c.71,500km- French registered, LHD example of this stunning grand tourerAsked to produce a cutting edge automotive design for the 1967 Montreal Expo that would "express man's ultimate aspirations in the field of motor cars", Alfa Romeo enlisted the help of Carrozzeria Bertone. Penned by Marcello Gandini, the resultant show car caused a sensation and inspired Alfa Romeo to start work on a production version which debuted at the 1970 Geneva Salon. With its shark-nosed profile, NACA-style bonnet duct and vented B-posts, the newcomer had been eagerly awaited by the press and public alike. However, many automotive journalists at the time, who were anticipating a bona fide supercar rather than a competent grand tourer, gave the car mixed reviews. Nevertheless, its all-round coil-sprung suspension (independent double-wishbone front / 'live' trailing arm rear) and ventilated disc brakes helped ensure decent roadholding and handling.Powered by a dry-sump 2593cc 'quad-cam' fuel-injected V8 derived from Alfa Romeo's successful Tipo 33/2 sports racers, the model also boasted a ZF five-speed manual gearbox and limited slip differential. With a quoted 200bhp and 173lbft of torque on tap, it was capable of 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds and 137mph. Marketed somewhat haphazardly between 1970 and 1977 and hampered by the fuel crisis of the early years of that decade, despite strong initial public demand just 3,925 Montreals are thought to have been made. In recent years Gandini's design has come to be appreciated for exactly what it is - an exotic and highly capable long-distance tourer which never fails to turn heads.This French registered lefthand drive example is finished in White Bianco with black velour seats and has recently received a mechanical overhaul by Montreal specialists Super Engineering. The vendor advises some £10,000 has been spent including a new exhaust system and injection system overhaul. Described as being in "good" condition with regard to its bodywork, paintwork, engine, interior and gearbox, it is understood a detailed report of the recent works undertaken will accompany the car.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1976 Toyota HJ45 Land Cruiser Pickup- Subject to a recent extensive restoration, mechanical and engine overhaul- Offered with photographs of the restoration plus current V5C- Displaying 62,400 kms and offered with an MOT certificate into April 2018.The origins of the long-running Land Cruiser series of 4x4s date back to 1941, when the Japanese authorities ordered Toyota to reverse engineer the Jeep. With the experience of several military trucks behind it, the company then launched the first Land Cruiser 10 years later. The name has subsequently become a byword for rugged dependability in parts of the world where even the ubiquitous Land Rover has been known to struggle. The now classic Land Cruiser models were produced from 1960 to 1984, and the righthand drive version now offered is of the two-door pickup variant that hails from 1976 powered by the 3.6-litre six-cylinder diesel engine driving through a four-speed manual gearbox. This smart looking example has been subject to a recent extensive restoration, mechanical and engine overhaul and is offered with photographs of the restoration plus current V5C and letter from Toyota confirming the build date. Displaying 62,400 kms the vendor currently classes the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and manual gearbox as 'Very Good' and is offered with an MOT certificate into April 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1965 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Coupe- 1 of just 1,583 RHD examples made and supplied new to George Edwin Jones Esq. of Totley, Sheffield- 'Matching' chassis and engine numbers and treated to a bare metal restoration by Baz Cope Engineering from 2013-2015- Mr Cope used to work for renowned marque specialist CMC of Bridgnorth and incorporated strengthened sills etc- Accompanying history file includes the car's original green logbook and numerous restoration photos and bills etcUpdated in August 1964, Jaguar's iconic E-Type gained a larger 4235cc XK DOHC straight-six engine and more user-friendly manual gearbox with synchromesh on each of its four forward speeds. Thankfully, the model's beautiful styling remained unaltered until the introduction of the so-called Series 1.5 cars during September 1967 by which time just 1,583 RHD Series 1 4.2 Fixed Head Coupes had been made.According to its original green logbook, this particular example was initially road registered as 'GWA 505C' by Sheffield County Council on May 1st 1965. Supplied new to George Jones of Totley, it passed thereafter to John Wright, John Boyle, Ernest Moore, Goforths of Doncaster, Norman Bond, Griffiths & Norman and Robert Waugh of Hull. Laid-up following its acquisition by the latter in 1976, the Jaguar was re-registered with the DVLA some seven years later whilst in the care of Beverley resident I.C. Whiting. Subsequently belonging to David Baxter and Michael Wilson, the Fixed Head Coupe entered the current ownership during late November 2012. Formerly employed by renowned marque specialist CMC of Bridgnorth, Baz Cope provided mechanical assistance for several of Philip Porter's E-Type Club tours and it was on one such event that the vendor met and befriended him. Thus, Mr Cope agreed to undertake an extensive restoration of 'GWA 505C' at a heavily discounted labour rate. Photos on file show that chassis 1E20541 had been the subject of much 'corner cutting' work in the past. Hundreds of hours went into repairing its bodyshell and opening panels. The replacement sills were strengthened in accordance with current Martin Robey practice and a new engine frame installed. Attention was paid to the wiring, steering, clutch, heater, Webasto sunroof, cooling system, brakes, suspension and triple SU carburettors. Repainted and re-trimmed in Black, the Jaguar had much of its brightwork re-plated or renewed and was treated to a set of 'Lightweight' style alloy wheels shod with Bridgestone tyres. Submitted for MOT testing by Baz Cope on 21st May 2015 at an indicated 16,466 miles, that same year saw the E-Type benefit from a new starter motor, brake servo, replacement core plugs and electronic ignition courtesy of Newcastle-under-Lyme based marque specialist XJK (£2,458.44). XJK were also responsible for changing the fuel pump's points in August 2016 since when the two-seater has completed trouble free trips to Scotland and the Goodwood Revival. Having covered some 2,700 post refurbishment miles to date, the seller has concluded that stabling two Series I Fixed Head Coupes is an indulgence. Preferring the original interior of his other two-seater, he has thus decided to place 'GWA 505C' on the market. Pleasingly, the engine number listed on the car's original logbook and chassis plate (7E3374-9) matches the one stamped into its cylinder block and head. Starting readily upon inspection, this striking looking E-Type comes with several thousand pounds worth of SNG Barratt parts bills, numerous Baz Cope Engineering invoices (amounting to circa £36,000), assorted photos chronicling the bodyshell's rejuvenation and a 'no advisories' MOT certificate valid until May 2018.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.

1967 Austin-Healey 3000 MKIII- Original RHD UK supplied example with 62,500 recorded miles- Current ownership since 2007, MOT'd to July 2018 and ready to be enjoyed- Re-painted in 2013, over-drive equipped and known ownership from newDonald Healey's eponymous company built a prototype two-seater sports car for display at the 1952 London Motor Show that not only impressed the public, but also so excited Austin's Managing Director, Leonard Lord, that he struck a deal to build the car in volume at Longbridge. The newcomer was renamed the Austin-Healey 100 and the rest, as they say, is history. The 'Big' Healey enjoyed steady development with the four cylinder cars giving way to the 100-Six of 1956, which was replaced by the first of the 3000s in 1959. The final version was the 3000 MKIII which was launched in October 1963 and mildly upgraded (Phase 2) in May the following year. The most powerful and luxurious of all the models, it had a lively performance courtesy of its 150bhp straight-six engine and featured such niceties as wind-up windows and a walnut veneer facia. 3000 production closed at the end of 1967 after 42,926 had been made, 17,712 of which were MKIIIs.As one of the last of the line, the 3000 offered is a desirable home market MKIII Phase 2 model. Its supporting paperwork confirms it was built on January 15, 1967 and delivered new the following month to Martins Caravan Co. of Exeter. There have been eight other owners including the vendor who acquired the car in April 2007. Over the years the body which was originally finished in Beige was changed to Red and Black before receiving its current hue of British Racing Green in 2013 - it is matched to Black interior trim. The SU carburettors were overhauled last year and 'JTT 673E' is now being offered complete with new hood, tonneau cover, a spare set of five wire wheels, Heritage Certificate, original handbook and sales brochure, details of all past owners, tax discs and MOT certificates (including one valid to July 2018) and an assortment of spares.PLEASE NOTE: All estimates are subject to a buyer's premium of 16.2% incl.
