Lot 57

A 1954 MG TF 1250cc, registration number WPA 963, Old English white. The MG TF was launched at the 1953 Motor Show. In reality it was a facelift MG TD, fitted with the TD Mk II engine, headlights which flared into the wings, a sloped radiator grille and a new pressurised cooling system. The XPAG engine compression ratio was increased to 8.1:1, with larger valves and stronger valve springs, and with the aid of larger carburettors increased performance output to 57.5 bhp at 5,500 rpm. This TF was registered on 1st December 1954 and has been restored at some time. The Old English white coachwork is described as being in very good condition, as is the beige trim. Mechanically the condition is said to be strong and performing well. The MG is offered for auction with the ***no original RF60 logbook***, V5, a small number of receipts and previous MOT certificates. MG TFs are widely regarded as the best of the T range, and this cannot fail to remind you what classic motoring is all about. V5C, MOT and tax exempt See illustrations

Lot 30

A 1953 MG TD restoration project, registration number MKV 828, chassis number TD/28408, engine number XPAG/TD2/28446, maroon. This TD restoration project has been owned by the same family for approximately 48 years. During this time the MG has been in storage for approximately 40 of them. A body off restoration was started approximately a year ago but was stalled due to the death of the vendor's husband. A considerable amount of work has been carried out, with the majority of the engine, running gear and chassis restored and now requiring reassembly. The bodywork is basically sound but will require repairs to the bottoms of the doors and running boards and some of the ash frame will require localised repairs. The interior and weather gear are present but also require restoration. The MG is offered for auction with receipts for works carried out. This exciting project is now ready for the next owner to take up the reins and finish the restoration. V5C, MOT and tax exempt See illustration

Lot 124

PLEASE NOTE: If you wish to view under the bonnet of this vehicle, please ask a member of staff as it is not a conventional hinge.   H&H are indebted to the vendor for the following description: 'Born out of a design exercise that coachbuilder Ghia devised for the innovative Fiat Balilla 508 chassis, the 'S' or Sport version entered production in 1933. Benefiting from a tuned 995cc side valve engine, rear-mounted fuel tank and friction shock absorbers, its credentials as a driver's car were cemented the following year with the adoption of an overhead valve cylinder head and close-ratio four-speed manual gearbox. A popular choice on events such as the Mille Miglia, the 508S was typically supplied in kit-form outside of Italy with concessionaires in the likes of France (Simca), Poland and Czechoslovakia responsible for assembly. The British version, of which fifty were produced, differed from its Continental equivalents by dint of having right-hand drive, knock-on wheels and more elaborate instrumentation. In road tests, the 508S customarily achieved 60mph in third gear and 75-77mph in top, a very good performance for a sub-1000cc car in 1935, while in competition the two-seater often vanquished similar capacity MG and Singer opposition! 'BZ 4078' was one of four Balilla 508S cars dispatched in rolling chassis guise from Turin to the marque's English assembly plant in Wembley. Once bodied, the quartet are thought to have been bought by a Belfast car dealer. In 1965, whilst employed at Loughborough University, I was told of a Fiat Balilla 508S long wing spyder at Stow Maries in Essex. On 1st January 1966 I journeyed through a snow storm and bought 'BZ 4078' from its then owner, Bert Smith. Finished in Black with Maroon upholstery, its body tub was tired and scruffy. When I commenced restoration by rubbing down the bodywork I found that the original paint colour had been British Racing Green. I was able to use the original boot lid, bonnet, doors and wheels. The car had been fitted with a replacement Ford 10 engine but unusually this had been allied to the original four-speed close-ratio gearbox. Many of the instruments were missing. It was necessary to fit a new body tub, wings and floor. As original Fiat 508S engine 995cc parts were difficult to obtain, I fitted a Fiat 508C engine of similar design but much more robust. This engine was used from 1937 to 1951 and is a 1089cc OHV unit. The car has done 21 post-restoration miles and has been carefully stored since its rejuvenation was completed. As the engine is virtually new, it will want running-in, the brake shoes have high spots and no doubt adjustments will need to be made. The accompanying buff continuation logbook lists the Fiat's date of original registration as 28th May 1936. Subsequently, DVLA Northern Ireland confirmed its first owner to be John McGrattan of Bangor County Down who together with W. McMillan, Tommy Black and W. Sullivan achieved some notable competition results aboard 'BZ 4078': International County Down Trophy Race, Bangor - 20/6/1936. Driven by John McGrattan to tenth place. Ulster Automobile Club Hill Climb, Craigantlet County Down - 29/8/1936. Driven by John McGrattan in the Nelson Trophy. International Leinster Trophy Car Race, Tallaght County Dublin - 17/7/1937. Driven by W. McMillan with Tommy Black as his designated reserve. Phoenix Park International Grand Prix Meeting - 11/9/1937. Driven by W. McMillan and W Sullivan in a 7-lap handicap. Craigantlet - 27/8/1937. Driven by McMillan, Sullivan and Montgomery. Took three firsts and a third. Knock Club's Car Trial - 2/10/1937. Driven by McMillan to second. International Leinster Trophy Car Race, Tallaght County Dublin - 16/7/1938. Entered by Mrs R.E. Parish (Bangor) and driven by Tommy Black with McMillan as designated reserve. The car was advertised for sale in the 14th November 1958 edition of Autosport by Graham Readett who is the last keeper recorded in the aforementioned continuation buff logbook: FIAT Balilla 2-seater sports, Ford 10 engined with Ford 8 head, twin Sus, good hood and sidescreens, goes well, gearbox and body a bit rough. £100 o.n.o. - Readett, Luton'.

Lot 139

Introduced in 1927, the Rally Type ABC featured an 'abaissee' (or underslung) chassis that endowed it with notably good handling / roadholding. Indeed such was the Paris-built sports car's reputation that MG are known to have acquired one for analysis. Available with a choice of 1.1, 1.2 and 1.5 litre four-cylinder proprietary engines allied to three-speed manual transmission, even the smallest capacity derivative was reputedly capable of over 80mph. A popular choice in 1.1 litre class events, the Rally Type ABC's period competition pedigree encompassed the GP de l'A.C.F., Spa 24 hours, GP Guipuzcoa, Bol d'Or, Mille Miglia and Brooklands Double Twelve. One of a pair imported new to the UK by motor trader J.A. Driskell and L. Cutbill Jnr to promote the marque, this particular example was finished in red, christened 'Moulin Rouge' and road registered as 'UL 8540'. Nicknamed 'Moulin Bleu', its appropriately-hued sister car bore the number plate 'UL 5582'. Entered for the MCC Land's End Trial in late March 1929, the two 'Moulins' were rewarded with Silver Medals. Contesting the inaugural Brooklands Double Twelve race two months later, 'UL 8540' demonstrated an impressive turn of speed until suffering piston failure some six hours in. Repaired using parts from the spare car, Driskell / Cutbill's mount made-up much lost ground on day two. Sold off thereafter, the Rally Type ABC was re-acquired by J.A. Driskell during early 1933. In between times he had campaigned a BNC and engaged the services of Ralph Silva as an apprentice mechanic (the latter subsequently worked for first ERA and then Prince Bira alongside Stan Holgate). Re-liveried from red to blue, 'UL 8540' participated in numerous sprints and hillclimbs with Driskell / Silva aboard as well as returning to Brooklands for the High Speed Trial and Relay Race etc. Doubtless more agile than the Ford V8 that he piloted on the 1934 Monte Carlo Rally, Driskell is rumoured to have kept the French sports car until his death during late WW2. An accompanying list of former keepers suggests that 'UL 8540' remained in the Home Counties until the mid-1950s when it migrated northwards. Acquired by Douglas John Moray Stuart, the sometime Lord Doune and 20th Earl of Moray in 1972, the voiturette formed part of his renowned motorcar collection for nigh on thirty years. Restored whilst on display at Doune Castle, it changed hands twice thereafter before entering the current ownership during 2003. Starting readily upon inspection, 'UL 8540' retains what the vendor believes to be its original but much repaired SCAP X11 1.1-litre engine. Still wearing the same 'Grand Prix'-style, tapered-tail bodywork that it sports in the numerous period photos on file, the two-seater even displays evidence of what is thought to be its initial 'Moulin Rouge' livery (visible to the chassis and axles in places). Sparingly used over the last dozen years, the Rally Type ABC has nonetheless benefited from new internals for its three-speed manual gearbox. Thought to have been fitted with an uprated rear axle during the 1930s (the original unit lacked a differential), the two-seater also sports a period Rene Thomas four-spoke steering wheel. Described by the vendor as possessing 'fair' paintwork and 'patinated' blue leather upholstery, 'UL 8540' was much admired when invited to form part of Cartier's 'Style et Lux' exhibit at the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed. Seemingly highly original and potentially eligible for the Mille Miglia Storica among many other prestigious events, this undeniably handsome (Bugatti Type 37-esque) Rally is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, history file and its silver medal from the 1929 MCC Land's End Trial.

Lot 28

According to the Heritage Certificate accompanying this smart-looking MKII Coupe, it was despatched from the Abingdon plant on December 20, 1961, bound for the USA. The document further reveals that it was finished in Old English White, trimmed in Black and benefited from the optional wire wheels and heater. As far as can be ascertained, the MG returned to these shores circa 2007, at which point it was treated to a nut and bolt restoration in its original colour and converted to righthand drive, since when it has apparently travelled just 312 miles. The vendor informs us that the Coupe has spent the last two years in the Isle of Man, so will therefore need to acquire a mainland registration. He currently classes the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, four-cylinder engine and four-speed manual transmission as all being in 'good' order, and states the car is 'mechanically excellent and drives particularly well'.

Lot 3

This smart looking right-hand drive example is a notably late MKII being registered in early 1967. Sporting Green bodywork matched to a Black vinyl interior 'EFB 303E' has been extensively restored over 2012/2013 by the current retired engineer vendor. This has included the evident body restoration and repaint with the interior receiving new carpets and the seats being recovered. The brakes have been overhauled with a new master cylinder and replacement of the front callipers. Riding on Minilite style alloy wheels we are also informed that the Carburettor's have been overhauled and a new clutch kit has been fitted. The MG is offered with an original driver's handbook, collection of old mots dating back to 1979 and a large collection of invoices dating back to 1983. Described by the vendor with regards to the 1098cc engine, bodywork, paintwork, interior and four-speed gearbox as all "very good" the MG is offered with a current MoT certificate into August 2016. In terms of fun per pound, good Midgets are hard to beat and, with readily available and affordable spare parts, offer the perfect entree to classic car ownership.

Lot 45

Launched at the 1955 Frankfurt motorshow, the MG A featured a chassis penned by Roy Brocklehurst and power courtesy of the 1,489cc straight-four B Series engine from the MG Magnette Saloon. 'YSU 840' started life as a US export model and was first registered in the UK in 1990. A lefthand drive example to this day, it is presented with White bodywork complemented by Black interior trim, rides on wire wheels and boasts a luggage rack and leather-rimmed steering wheel. In recent times it has benefited from the installation of a Revotec electric fan, stainless steel exhaust, and H4 halogen headlamp conversion. Its current engineer keeper treated the MG to a mechanical overhaul, during which the brakes and suspension were attended to, and new tyres, water hoses, and rear light lenses fitted. The MG comes complete with V5C, fresh MOT although exempt and numerous invoices; many of which are from marque specialists such as Brown & Gammons and MGOC spares.

Lot 49

The defunct Turner marque is best remembered for its 11-year run of road-based production cars, many of which humbled far more exotic machinery in competition. This lovingly presented MKII model from 1960 features Blue bodywork complemented by Grey interior trim and has only recently emerged from an 18 month nut and bolt restoration by marque guru John Cullis. The reformation is centred around a brand new Robin Knight chassis and includes a fresh GRP bodyshell onto which the original bonnet and boot lid have been attached. Power comes from a 1098cc BMC A Series engine uprated with high compression pistons, Metro cylinder head, Cooper camshaft and electronic ignition. It breathes through a single 1.5in SU and exhausts through an all-stainless system. The unit drives through a fully reconditioned MG Midget gearbox. No stone has been left unturned with this superb example of the marque, which has covered just 450 miles since the restoration was completed.

Lot 52

Introduced in 1965, the MGB GT was a more comfortable and versatile proposition than its roadster sister. With a top speed of over 100mph courtesy of its 1798cc B-series engine and a capable chassis featuring independent front suspension, rack and pinion steering and disc / drum brakes, the enclosed 2+2-seater merited the old MG marketing slogan 'Safety Fast'. Finished in Red with Black vinyl upholstery, 'XJR 531J' is described by the vendor as being in 'excellent' condition with regard to its engine, four-speed manual plus overdrive gearbox, electrical equipment, interior trim and paintwork, while he rates the bodywork as 'very good'. Extensively restored in the early 2000s, work is understood to have included: a thorough bodywork refurbishment and bare metal repaint plus gearbox, suspension, rear axle and engine overhauls (the latter two being further enhanced via the fitment of an anti-roll bar and Stage 1 camshaft respectively). Some 12,000 miles later the B GT is still said to 'simply drive like new'. Riding on Rostyle wheels, this smart MG is offered for sale with a V5C Registration Document and large history file containing invoices for the thousands of pounds spent on parts during its rejuvenation.
