Lot 305
Very rare in the UK, this LHD Maverick Grabber has been superbly prepared for fast road or circuit/hill climb use complete with a new, ten-year Motorsport UK Vehicle Passport.The Ford Maverick was introduced in mid-1969, exactly five years to the day after the original Mustang appeared. Basically an economy 'Sports Coupe', it was built on the Falcon chassis and used the Falcon’s 170ci straight-six engine. It was advertised at 22mpg, weighed 2,411lbs, sold for $1,995 and, in the first partial year, 127,833 found homes. The Maverick gained a four-door sibling in 1971 and a sporty “Grabber” version with a 210bhp, 302-ci V8 was introduced.Dating from 1971, this example is indeed an original Grabber and we understand it was converted into a competition car prior to our vendor’s purchase around six years ago. Apparently the car took part in a couple of events with the Classic Touring Car Racing Club but was then sold. The next owner, an engineer, fitted it with a 289ci V8 in a hot but not ‘full-race’ state of tune, plus a Ford ‘Top-loader’ gearbox, however moved to Australia without using the car. The Grabber’s following owner spent considerable sums on a new LSD, a gearbox rebuild, safety equipment, tyres, mechanical improvements, bodywork, paint and much more but he too never actually raced the car. In our vendor's care, the car has continued to be fettled but it’s been kept road-legal and has covered around 100 miles or so in the years that he’s owned it.It’s been dyno’d at 312bhp which means there’s room for further tuning of the V8 but it’s lighter than a comparable Mustang or Camaro and, with good brakes (discs all round), a high-ratio steering box, an anti-dive suspension kit and a heavy-duty rear anti-roll bar, it could be made extremely competitive even at the current output. All the panels are steel, so if you fancied further weight saving, GRP wings, doors, bonnet and boot are available in the USA.The Maverick presents very well in Ford Diamond White with the obligatory Guardsman Blue Daytona stripes and has had no track use since the re-paint and generally appears very smart. The satin-black rear panel and spoiler offer a period ‘racer’ look and the car sits on new 15'', American Racing wheels currently shod with 225/50 Toyo Proxes R888 tyres. It’s been fitted with new Wilwood brake calipers, front and rear, with new vented discs on the front, vented discs to the rear and a brake balance bar.The interior is fully stripped for competition and fitted with an OMP race seat and a TRS full harness. The cage is described as a ‘fully-welded roll-cage to FIA specification’ and features door bracing bars, two overhead hoops across the car and triangulated rear fixings to welded-on mounts in the rear quarters, plus extra cross-bracing behind the driver’s seat. The extinguisher is fixed to the floor behind the driver's seat and the activation toggle and battery cut-off are in easy reach of the driver’s right hand (it's left-hand drive). The old two-dial dash has been replaced with a more comprehensive set of instruments and the car has just been completely rewired to competition spec. The original pedals have been replaced by a proper, adjustable, floor-hinged pedal box, the steering column is braced by a rose-joint attached to a strut emerging from under the dash and the steering wheel is deep-dish with a suede covering. Fuelling is courtesy of a large race-spec rubber fuel cell, a Holley electric pump and some very sturdy braided fuel lines with anodised fittings.The engine bay is functional and purposeful, with lots of professional touches like the tiny spring used to keep the dipstick from working loose, the braided hoses to and from the oil cooler and the doubled-up throttle return springs. The 289ci V8 is topped by a large Holley four-barrel carb on a Weiand intake manifold and the sparks are controlled by an electronic ignition unit in the distributor. Three-inch downpipes meet three inch stainless pipes that head to a single silencer each side and on to those glorious side-exit exhausts offering a classic V8 'burble'.The car is supplied with a few bills dating back as far as 2012 and there are detailed invoices from a specialist in Dorset covering mechanical fettling and bodywork repairs to take care of minor rust problems, followed by a respray. There are also Dyno readouts supporting the power and torque claims (both over 300), a couple of older MOTs and instruction sheets for Comp Cams products, including their ‘High Energy & Hi Tech’ hydraulic lifters’. The V5C is in the vendor’s name and confirms that the car has been in the UK since 1989 and there are quite a few other receipts for minor mechanical and cosmetic bits - one or two much weightier ones from the Mustang Depot for the new differential. The fresh Motorsport-UK Vehicle Passport. No.45162 is valid until 21/12/2032 for Sprints/Hill-climb and Sports Libre.The Maverick was introduced in 1969 so pre-’66 Appendix 'K' events are not an option, but there are a number of championships that could be suitable, including the Classic Touring Car Racing Club’s Boss Blue Oval Saloon series, Bernie’s Sports Racing and V8s, the Classic Sports Car Club’s Swinging Sixties or Future Classics, amongst others.If you are keen to race a proper period American V8, then this well presented, professionally prepared, only one in the UK, Diamond White Grabber may well be the answer and, at this guide price, you’ll struggle to find a competitive Camaro or Mustang.SpecificationMake: FORDModel: MAVERICKYear: 1971Chassis Number: 1K93F151707Registration Number: KWE 980JTransmission: Manual Drive Side: Left-hand DriveMake: LHDClick here for more details and images
Lot 342
Originally built in 1998 as a replica of XJB 308H, the penultimate 'Works' 1,275GT, and less than 5,000 miles since a total rebuild by Minisport.In the days when rallying was as much about proving a car’s reliability as its speed, the 1970 Daily Mirror World Cup Rally was the ultimate test. Just 23 cars finished from nearly 100 starters, the slimmest percentage of all the original 'marathon' rallies. It was so named because the route would follow the direction of the Jules Rimet Trophy as the World Cup’s host city moved from London in 1966 to Mexico City in 1970, the trip was hardly direct, taking in much of western and central Europe and the length of South America on its 16,000-mile journey.A sole Mini took part in the World Cup Rally, with BL at that point having switched its sporting focus from the Cooper to the square-fronted 1275GT. Though fully works supported, the Mini wasn’t expected to actually complete the rally, but BMC hoped it would lead the European sections, proving the new 1275GT’s speed (crucial, considering that it was a fair bit slower than the soon-to-be-discontinued Cooper ‘S’) before inevitably dropping out in America. It didn’t even do that, however, after blowing its pistons in Yugoslavia due to poor fuel.This particular example is an exacting replica of the car that took part, because the owner of the original doesn’t usually attend shows. A committed rally fan, our vendor worked as an apprentice at RTS Motorway Remoulds, which entered car number one – a Ford Cortina GT– in the London-Sydney Marathon rally in 1968. His interest in long-distance rallying grew from there: “I’ve always had Minis, ever since my first car, so it was natural for me to make a replica of the only Mini to take part in the World Cup Rally.”That car was originally built in 1988 and appears to faithfully replicate, XJB 308H, British Leyland’s only Mini entry in the 1970 World Cup Rally. By 2009 it was ready for a bit of a refresh and long-established specialists, Mini Sport in Burnley, were selected for the task. There is a file with the car documenting the components used and costs and they are summarised below. The Mini has covered just 4,750 miles since the build and has been regularly maintained.Engine and GearboxFully rebuilt in 2010 by Mini Sport and less than 4,750 miles sinceLongman cylinder head with ISKY valve springsAvonbar forged rockersNew 1275 A-Series crankshaft nitrocarburisedKent steel vernier duplex timing gearsKent Meg rally camshaftBalanced and polished rodsCompetition centre main capOmega dished high compression pistonsHigh-capacity oil pumpAldon race distributorTyler inlet manifold and Weber 40DCOE with a K&N filterManiflow large bore LCB manifold and full 1.75” bore twin-box exhaustUltralight steel flywheelLight steel backplateAP ceramic paddle clutch centre plate with AP Grey diaphragm clutchBody and InteriorRebuilt and repainted by Minisport in 2009 (Tartan Red with an OEW roof)Cross-drilled grooved discs and Cooper s calipersGenuine 5x10” MinilitesSeam-welded and powder coated subframes (rear new in 2011)Fully rewired with a custom loom in 2008Monte Carlo Alloy SumpguardFull roll-cage including door bars4-point harnesses (new 2014)Moto-Lita Mk 4 suede covered wheelCustom works replica dash - paperwork includes wiring diagrams Works-type heated front screenBrantz International 2 TripmeterLifeline plumbed-in extinguisher plus a hand-heldRed Top 30 battery70amp alternator4 x Lucas 700 lightsThe car has a current MSA Logbook but the seats and fire extinguisher are out of date, however, it's fully usable for non-MSA events and is always being invited to historic events and shows where lots of people still remember the 1970 World Cup Rally.

Lot 503
Back to basics for purity of performance, this beautifully presented and spritely little sports car offers unrivalled excitement at a very attractive price point.Offered here at Race Retro 2023 is a quick and very well-presented example of a factory-built Caterham Seven Superlight. Under the bonnet is a Dave Andrew (DVA Power) 1.8-litre, naturally-aspirated K-Series engine offering superb performance. This Superlight features carbon-fibre front wings, composite race seats, four-point racing harnesses and a carbon-fibre wind deflector. It's finished in glorious yellow paintwork with a black interior, and rides on a correct set of 13'' black alloy wheels with polished rims, complete with semi-slick AR-1 tyres (less than 100 miles since new).With no expense spared, the engine was professionally rebuilt by Dave Andrew (DVA), and includes race liners, Jenvey throttle bodies, Emerald ECU, VHPD cylinder head with ported valves, modified to match forged pistons and fully balanced then remapped at Track’N’Road showing a healthy 211bhp.On inspection, the yellow paintwork is in very good overall condition, with only minor chips on the nosecone, the front wheel arches, and the rear wheel arch protectors. The alloy wheels present very well and, inside the cabin space, the black interior also shows in good condition, with light signs of use on the seat bases but no substantial wear. The Seven also benefits from a four-into-one stainless exhaust, a limited-slip differential and a removable MOMO steering wheel. The car will come fitted with windscreen and half door skins as pictured, and a new full wet weather hood.The car is accompanied by a history file which includes the original Caterham build documents and the most recent MOT Certificate carried out on 20 April 2022 at 30,145 miles resulting in a clean, first-time pass. Our vendor reports no known electrical or mechanical faults describing the little sports car as "absolutely on-the-button and performing well". The private registration number will not form part of the sale with new V5C registration paperwork to follow.During the Caterham's current ownership, it has competed in the 2022 Abingdon CAR-nival Sprint, winning its class by 6 seconds, and again at the Brooklands Autumn Motorsport Day, where it again took a Class win. It was awarded 3rd Overall in the Brooklands “Spirit of Motorsport” which is a combined sprint and Concours award, testifying to its overall condition along with the Superlight's legendary performance and handling.SpecificationMake: CATERHAMModel: SEVENYear: 1999Chassis Number: SDKRDSLR8X0030690Registration Number: TBATransmission: ManualDrive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 30500 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: BlackClick here for more details and images
