1927 Lanchester 40, 6,200cc. Registration number YF 1847, not recorded with DVLA. Body number 1974 (see text). Engine number 1951 (see text).In 1896 Frederick Lanchester was the first person in Britain to successfully build a 4-wheeled, petrol-engined motor car. The Lanchester Engine Company Limited was later formed in 1899. Frederick patented a harmonic balancer to cancel out the unbalanced secondary forces in a four-cylinder engine, which are still common fitments in four-cylinder engines today. He went on to invent an early form of fuel injection and turbocharging, he was the first to employ detachable wire wheels, bearings that were pressure-fed with oil, stamped steel pistons, piston rings, hollow connecting rods and the accelerator pedal. In 1904 he became disillusioned with the company’s directors and his brother George took over design work. After the end of the First World War, George’s engine for the new Forty was a 95hp, 6.2-litre, overhead-camshaft six that was meticulously designed with twin ignition – battery/coil and magneto – and inlet porting that ensured an equal air/petrol mix to all cylinders. The Forty also broke new bodywork ground, employing welded aluminium panelling over a cast-aluminium frame. It was the most expensive car in the world, in 1919 and many considered it superior to the Rolls Royce Silver Ghost. However, despite upgrades to engine and running gear over the next nine years, the Lanchester Forty ran out of time and George had a new model ready to launch in 1928 after some 392 examples were built. The Thirty was powered by a straight-eight, overhead-camshaft 4.4-litre engine. However, the Wall Street Crash hit hard in 1929 and, despite Lanchester displaying two of the new eight-cylinder cars on their stand at the Olympia Motor Show in October 1930, only 126 Straight Eights were made before the Great Depression effectively killed demand and the bank foreclosed on the company. BSA bought the assets in a fire sale and production was transferred to Lanchester’s new sister subsidiary, Daimler, in Coventry. YF 1847 has been family owned since 1934 and is known to the club but has not been seen since the 1960's. It is was built as a six light, four door car with a Lanchester tall body, it is believed to have been used as a taxi before coming into the ownership of undertaker Frank Simms of Tunbridge Wells who bought it in 1934. The records on file are a bit confusing as Simms had several Lanchesters. In 1929 he had a hearse built by Rock Thorpe & Watson of Tunbridge Wells. In 1935 he had a hearse body fitted to a Lanchester chassis by Gibson & Brown of Tunbridge Wells and in 1936 he bought chassis 1974 from Stephen Peerless of London. This chassis number is on YF 1847 although the R.F. 60 states it should be chassis 1999. The engine fitted is numbered 1951 (the R.F. 60 states 1971, the bellhousing is stamped 1954. Along with MK 2428, a 1926 Lanchester hearse, chassis and engine 1962, YF 1847 was in regular use up until being taken off the road in c.1956, MK came off the road c.1974. When our vendors father inherited the cars from Frank Simms widow, Emma, he kept YF selling MK through sold by Brooks Auctioneers in 1999. He was an RAF engineer and started the restoration of the car, although his first love, a Chipmunk aeroplane took precedent over his time. The car appears complete, although a none runner due to ignition/firing issues, the odometer has been rebuilt and set back to zero and several other parts are present but not fitted. It can easily be pushed and the engine turns over. There is a list of items that he has attended to, including refurbishing the radiator and renewing the wiring harness. This rare machine, the cataloguer was only able to find one other example selling in recent years, is offered for sale with no reserve after long-term family ownership. The family ask only one thing, that when it is up and running that they can visit and have a ride. Sold with the R.F. 60, see notes above, various period receipts relating to this and MK 2428 and other paperwork.
1938 New Imperial Model 23, 148cc. Registration number ENF 385. Frame number 87/35007/26. Engine number 94/33682/23 4S. Sold with the V5C, R.E.60A, various literature and a small quantity of spares.It will need recommissioning before road use. New Imperial’s first motorcycle appeared in 1901; it had the engine mounted in front of the handlebars above the front wheel, and the transmission consisted of a leather belt which drove the front wheel. By 1912 a range of three motorcycles was offered, and two years later, in 1914, New Imperial produced their famous Light Tourist model. In 1921 they won the 250 cc class of the TT (rider Doug Prentice), the first of six TT wins by New Imperial; the wins were all in the Lightweight class, except for one Junior victory. The Company continued to prosper and grow until the depression years of the early 1930s which left them financially weak, even Bob Foster’s win in the 1936 Lightweight TT could not bring in the sales that New Imperial desperately needed; this win was the last time that Great Britain ever won a Lightweight TT. The model 23 OHV was their longest-running and highest-volume model, produced between 1932-1939 when the company folded in 1939. ENF, was built in August 1937, and by 1049 was with John Turnbull of Manchester, according to the R.F.60A it changed hands 7 times until R. E. Musgrave of Sheffield in the early 1950's. When he died it passed to a friend of our vendor who in due course gave it to him. Our vendor has dealt with DVLA and been able to retain the original number, and it come with a selection of spare parts. Sold with the V5C, R.E.60A, various literature and a small quantity of spares. It will need recommissioning before road use.
1964 Matchless G12 CSR, 648cc. Registration number CTN 372B. Frame number overpainted A85338. Engine number G12 CSR 9573. Gearbox number MA 3294R. The Matchless G12 CSR designation officially stood for "Competition/Sprung/Roadster," the same nomenclature used with the G80 and G50 models. With its distinctive two-into-one 'siamese' exhaust system and upgraded camshafts the CSR was a high-performance motorcycle with what was, at the time, a high compression ratio of 8.5:1, distinguishing it and the G12 CS from the other G12 models, having a 7.5:1 compression ratio. The factory diverted Chief Engineer Jack Williams from AJS 7R development to address the problems with leaks and vibration and modify the bikes for racing – with the result that Ron Langston and Don Chapman won the prestigious Thruxton 500 long-distance endurance race on the AJS Model 31 counterpart to the G12. Encouraged by this victory in 1963 the G12 CSR gained the name Monarch and twin carburettors (the AJS version was renamed the Hurricane). CTN comes with an Owners Club dating certificate for dispatch in June 1963 to Newcastle on Tyne, confirming it is fully matching numbers. Owned by Henry Black of Guisborough in July 1964 it stayed with him until Mick or Malcom Curnick owned it in 2001. Then comes John Deaville in 2013 who restored the machine, at this time he notes it was a genuine 28,000 miles and two owners. He kept copious notes on its time with him, including selling it to John Hadgson in 2018 . Our vendor bought it in 2019 and has cheished its time with him. Sold with the V5C, old MOT's from 1979 - 2001, many receipts for parts and work undertaken, magazine articles and other related paperwork. It should require only light recommissioning before road use.
1979 Suzuki Beamish RL250, 246cc. Registration number VYA 391W. Frame number 101038. Engine number 101038. Suzuki entered the trials market in the early 1970's with the RL250, sending 50 of these machines to Beamish Motors to sell through the Suzuki network. However they soon proved uncompetitive and Graham Beamish was quick to identify some obvious shortcomings and enlisted the help of Brian Fowler to make some essential modifications. The engines were improved by adding flywheel weight, reshaping the combustion chamber and reducing the choke size, frames were altered, mudguard mounts adapted to reduce clogging with mud and a much more trials-friendly machine was created. Beamish then made Suzuki an offer for all the unsold RL250 machines worldwide which was quickly accepted. He then set about building a completely revamped version using the skills of frame builder Mick Whitlock. Approximately 1200 were built. Delighted with this success, Suzuki gave Beamish Motors the sole worldwide manufacturing rights for their trials machines. In 1976 the classic yellow and black Mark 2 made its debut with a new and lighter frame plus many other mods. VYA has been owned by our trialist vendor for several years but not used in the last 14 months. It comes with the V5C, a Beamish owners Club certificate, and various manuals. Light recommissioning may be needed due to its rest period, owner confirms is a good runner.
1984 Norton Interpol 2 ex South Yorkshire Police, 588cc. Registration number A834 BWE. Frame number 2040. Engine number 3011. Norton merged with BSA in 1973 and all assets were surrendered to Norton. Among them was an engineering project that had running prototypes for a twin-rotor Wankel engine powered motorcycle; Norton engineers led by David Garside were given the project. British bikes were struggling to get any more power out of their engines and since the demise of the Commando in 1977, the company had been looking for something to set them apart from their competitors. The first rotary powered motorcycle for Norton was built between 1983-1988 and was designated for police use only. The idea was the 350, 588cc Interpol 2 or ‘P41’ prototypes would be tested under the brutal conditions of everyday police work. Sales were restricted on the Interpol 2 due to the rotary engine requiring a strict maintenance schedule. BWE was used by South Yorkshire Police from July 1984 until being sold out of service in 1991 to Paul Rout, our vendor buying it from him in 2003. It has been dry stored since this time and comes with some of the original Police equipment, including light boxes and blue lamps. Sold with the V5C and various other paperwork, this rare machine will make and interesting project for the next owner.
1957 Matchless G3L, 349cc. Registration number VSM 490. Frame number painted over. Engine number 57/G3Ls/35084. The rigid framed Matchless G3L/AJS Model 16M 350 cc single was developed in 1945 from the military World War II motorcycle. The company also produced an almost identical motorcycle under the AJS name as the G3L with the only difference between the two was that the Matchless carried a magneto at the rear of the cylinder barrel, whereas the AJS magneto was at the front. In 1953, the models were modernised with a dual seat replacing the saddle and rear pillion seat, it retained a rigid rear frame until 1949, when pivoted rear suspension controlled by hydraulically dampened spring units designed and made by Matchless became available. The difference was indicated by the S (for springer) designation. VSM was owned by Nigel Lamb in 2007, then Michael Howard in the same year. In 2009 there was an MOT at 47,060 miles. In 2013 Karl Dineen bought it and our vendor 2014. Today it presents as a very well restored machine and should only require very light recommissioning before road use. Sold with the V5C, and old MOT
