1935 Railton Eight Special Saloon Coachwork by Carbodies Registration no. ADF 268 Chassis no. 543254 Engine no. 543554•One of only some 1400 Railtons of all types produced•One of the fastest British cars of its day• Known ownership history•Present ownership since 2004•Extensively restoredFootnotes:Conceived by business partners Reid Railton and Noel Macklin, Railton cars were based on Hudson mechanicals and assembled at the old Invicta works on Macklin's Fairmile estate in Cobham, Surrey. Introduced in 1933, the first Railton used a modified Terraplane Eight chassis on which was mounted British-style coachwork. The Railton weighed less than the Terraplane and with 94bhp available from the 4,010cc sidevalve straight-eight, the result was a stylish car with outstanding performance for its day. The car offered here is an example of the Terraplane Railton's successor, which was based on the more powerful (113bhp) 4,168cc Hudson Special Eight. 'ADF 268' (number '268' in the sales records) was sold new to Steel's Garage in Cheltenham and first registered on 3rd June 1935. The first owner was possibly a Mr Perrins. A letter from Railton Cars states that the car left the works on 30th May and is a 1935 Series II model with a Special Saloon body by Carbodies of Coventry.In December 1937 the Railton was purchased by H S Peacock of Cheltenham, but then a telegram dated 25th January 1938 shows the car going to Hanton's Garage (James Hanton) in Laurencekirk with a mileage of approximately 19,000. The accompanying invoice gives the sale price as £140 5s. The car then went to Robert Kerr in Fordoun in November 1949 before coming back to David Hanton in May 1965. There is an old-style logbook of file issued in June 1945 together with the current V5C.After Mr Hanton died the car was purchased by R A A Lewis of Morecambe, and there is correspondence on file with the well known Railton enthusiast Barry Mackenzie. 'ADF 268' appears to have been purchased by John Ingham of Clitheroe in September 1986. The current vendor purchased the car from dealer Jeremy Wade in August 2004. Since acquisition the following works have been carried out: •Chassis stripped and painted•Body stripped to bare metal; body above waistline replaced (including sliding roof); and whole car given top quality repaint•New chrome/rubber strips fitted•All interior leather replaced and seats completely rebuilt•Carpet and under-felt replaced•New headlining installed•All woodwork re-varnished•Engine stripped and rebuilt with new piston rings and replacement carburettor •Headlamps and radiator re-chromed•Flashing indicators fittedThere is a large quantity of invoices covering all of the above. The car is now in excellent condition, and it has been suggested that it should not be driven but put in a museum!For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Lot 415

A superbly engineered machine, UK-delivered, just 39,000 miles and hugely capable.The letters ‘STI’ hold a special sort of appeal for many Subaru Impreza enthusiasts. Think of ‘Subaru Technica International’ as the go-faster wing of Subaru much as M is to BMW, AMG is to Mercedes or, more accurately, Ralliart is to Mitsubishi. STI-badged Imprezas command serious respect and the officially imported UK cars are always in big demand.It's fair to say that October 2000 was a significant month for Impreza owners. Out went the much-loved original shape car and in came the revised bug-eyed edition. The reception was frosty to say the least, as Subaru realised that the styling wasn't to the taste of hardcore fans and moved quickly with the launch of the Impreza UK300 which offered compound headlamps, bigger spoilers, and the option of a Prodrive WR kit that boosted power to 245bhp. The UK300 was an instant hit and Subaru UK subsequently introduced the Impreza STi at the 2001 Frankfurt show. Debuting in British showrooms in January 2002, the STI, a car that was launched with 261bhp and the option of a standard car or one with bigger Prodrive-designed spoilers, grille, and front bumper. Both were badged 'Type-UK' to differentiate them from parallel imported models.The 2002 Paris Motor Show saw the release of the facelifted Impreza with much of the credit going to Prodrive and the designer of the McLaren F1, Peter Stevens. With revised front wings, shapelier headlights, a more aggressive bumper and front grille, a re-sculpted bonnet and revised rear light clusters, it was a far more cohesive design than its predecessor and sales soon picked up again, especially as its key rival, the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VII, had just been toned down from its Evo VI heyday. Almost immediately Prodrive announced a performance pack for the STI offering a full 300bhp. A 2003 facelift saw the controversial bug-eye headlamps replaced and a raft of other changes brought in.Introduced at the 2001 Frankfurt Show, the STI is powered by a 265bhp 2.0-litre flat four engine, but don't be fooled into thinking that it's merely a case of plugging in a more aggressive engine management chip or a bucket-sized turbocharger. The later 2003 facelifted car followed the same theme with revised suspension and a few engine tweaks. Nearly 80% of the STI's all-alloy powerplant is unique. The piston head was reshaped to form tougher semi-closed-deck cylinder blocks. Screw-in conrods and forged pistons combine with shimless valve lifters, sodium-filled exhaust valves and hollow valve intakes. Every moving part is either stronger, lighter or both. This reduces inertia and gives the engine a manic free-revving feel that's missing from the standard WRX. A larger intercooler and air intake help keep things from meltdown, and a water spray has been fitted to the intercooler that is operated by the driver via a dash-mounted button. Serious stuff.Differences to the regular WRX include special gold-coloured spoked alloy wheels, colour-keyed sill spoilers and an interior featuring blue suede-effect seats with STI logos and red stitching for the steering wheel, gear knob and handbrake lever. Also, inside - and sure to please enthusiasts - is a switch to spray the intercooler with water. Another device allows the driver to pre-set a warning buzzer and light to guard against over-revving the engine. On opening the bonnet, the engine compartment greets owners with a dramatic mixture of colours and detailing. The intake manifold, for example, is painted in red and the enlarged aluminium intercooler emblazoned with STI lettering. In addition, the STI Prodrive Style features a massive high-riding boot spoiler, newly designed sill spoilers and a deeper, squarer front bumper. The grille and badging resemble the WRC rally car. Interior enhancements over the standard STI include dark blue-coloured instruments with red needles. Four colours were available: WR Blue Mica, Blue Black Mica, Premium Silver Metallic and Pure White, the latter two being available to special order only.The car presented here is a 2003 Subaru Impreza WRX-STI Type UK which has built on its very sound standard specification and been further enhanced for even more performance and fast driving acumen. The discerning older owner of this special car, a renowned figure in motoring circles, has improved this car with superb engineering carried out by proper specialists.

The car is ideal for fast-road driving, hill-climbs or sprint events. Its engineering has been overseen by an owner who has lived and breathed motorsport for decades, selecting the best people and parts to create this car. The car’s abilities are supreme, very useable on road, but comes into its own when sprinting or hill-climbing, a proper machine and offering staggering performance for this level of guide price. SpecificationMake: SUBARUModel: IMPREZA WRX-STI TYPE UKYear: 2003Chassis Number: JF1GDBKH33G035013Registration Number: AM53 HYATransmission: ManualEngine Number: 918121 Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 39000 MilesClick here for more details and images

Lot 457

A properly engineered and superb fast-road driving RS homage.The 1973 Porsche 911RS is considered by all knowledgeable Porsche enthusiasts to be the single best 911 of all time. This is high praise when you consider the large number of 911 models that have been built over the 50+ years since the model's introduction. The Carrera RS (Renn Sport) is still to this day the benchmark 911, the beautiful lines only being matched by the sheer delight of driving it, with its positive steering, exhilarating sound, and linear performance. The RS had a purity of purpose that was not compromised by outside factors. For this reason, the Porsche RS Replica or "back-date" market has grown enormously, and demand is far outstripping the supply of quality machines.This tribute car presented here pays homage to the legendary 1973 2.7 RS, echoing that famous silhouette very well, and was professionally built by a well-respected Porsche specialist covering just over 1,000 miles since completion with its one and only owner. It utilises a C16, RHD 1984 3.2 Carrera Coupé as its starting point, this being a healthy well-serviced example with a decent history file containing numerous invoices and MOT Certificates documenting its conservative mileage.This striking car, now reborn, looks just right in the classic combination of Grand Prix White with Guards Red decals, wearing period Fuchs alloy wheels with Bridgestone Porsche N-rated tyres. All panels are period correct, having been sourced from Porsche, including new front wings, bonnet, front slam panel, sills, kidney bowls, rear quarters, fuel tank, and bumpers. All body seals are also new. The suspension has been rejuvenated with new dampers and new Powerflex bushes as well as new engine and gearbox mounts. Uprated drilled sports discs have been fitted along with new calipers, uprated steel-braided brake lines, and new wheel bearings. The 3.2-litre engine has been comprehensively stripped and rebuilt with new bearings, piston rings, chains, chain guides, chain tensioners, valve guides, and gaskets throughout. Additionally, the car was treated to an air induction kit, a brand-new starter motor and a custom stainless-steel exhaust and heat exchangers. The 915 gearbox has been fully rebuilt with new synchro rings, dog teeth, a WEVO conversion with a proper gearbox gate shifter system, along with a WEVO short shifter and PSJ precision coupler, and now feels like a G50 box! A new clutch and flywheel have been fitted and all gear linkage bushes have been replaced. New brake lines, fuel lines and oil return lines throughout, engine tinware, cam covers, cooling fan, oil cooler, oil tank and oil thermostat. The suspension components have been powder coated and all screws, piping, nuts, and bolts have been replaced throughout with factory parts. The interior hasn't missed out with many brand-new parts and materials including the headlining, RS Perlon carpets throughout, Prototipo Steering Wheel, red 3-point seat belts along with 6-point race harnesses, Recaro race seats, RS door-cards, Pioneer stereo with Bluetooth connectivity, and white dial faces. Included with the car are the manuals, a new factory service book, a replica period toolkit, a brand-new factory jack, plus two new keys.If, like most of us, an original 1973 2.7 RS is a tad outside the budget, this superb 'homage' must surely be the next best thing.SpecificationMake: PORSCHEModel: 911 'RS TRIBUTE'Year: 1984Chassis Number: WP0ZZZ91ZES102925Registration Number: A43 DUXTransmission: ManualEngine Number: 63E05342Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 1007 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: BlackClick here for more details and images

Lot 464

A beautiful German delivery, European-specification, Pagoda fresh from a 'last nut and bolt' restoration. UK-registered, running and driving without fault and ready for the next chapter.Launched in 1963 to replace the underpowered 190SL and utilising some of the new manufacturing techniques being adopted in the emerging S-Class, the Paul Bracq designed 230SL was proudly unveiled to an appreciative audience at the Geneva Motor Show. Remaining in production until 1971 with around 49,000 finding customers, the W113 Class, frequently referred to as the Pagoda, eventually spanned three engine sizes.The same show in 1967 coincidentally, saw the introduction of the W113-250SL. The new car retained the stiffer suspension and sporty feel of the earlier cars, but provided improved agility with its larger 2.5-litre engine and was now fitted with rear disc brakes and a larger tank. They were offered with a 4-speed Automatic transmission or a 4/5-speed ZF manual gearbox. Replaced by the 280SL in January 1968, its one-year production run makes the 250SL the rarest of the W113 Series.This spectacular 250SL was German supplied and remains in left-hand drive with its original hardtop. It has been subject to a painstaking restoration by M-B marque specialists over the last five years including D-Class, Multitech, SS Motors, Quickfit Safety Belts, SLS in Germany and the SL Shop. The work included a full glass-out respray, brand new leather interior, carpets, hood, engine, running gear and in excess of £36,000 was spent on retrimming, servicing and new parts. These new parts included brand new black Mercedes grained leather throughout including the dash, door cards, seats etc, brand new correct salt and pepper carpets throughout, brand new wood kit incl’ dash and surrounds, a new Mercedes Mohair hood, Mercedes-branded chrome seat-belts, new exhaust, headlights, Michelin Whitewall Tyres 185HR14 MXV, a new Becker Europa Vintage FM Radio with ’67 MB knobs and a Hirschmann Electric Chrome Wing Aerial.The engine rebuild included a reground crank with new mains and big ends, piston rings, rebuilt head with new valves, springs, guides and seats, recon oil pump, new timing chain, recondition fuel injection system and a new clutch and flywheel.At the time of photography, the odometer read 93,121 miles meaning that the car has only covered a handful of miles since the work was completed. The original documents held in the history file include its Service Book, and the stamped Mercedes-Benz Kundendienst alongside acres of invoices from the recent restoration in addition to a UK V5C. The fastidious attention to maintaining originality is clearly illustrated by the period-correct Becker Europa with 1967 MB-knobs, the Hirschmann aerial and proper Michelin tyres. This truly is a superb restoration and, resplendent in its gleaming new Signal Red paintwork, this is undoubtedly one of the finest examples of the rare 250SL on the market today. SpecificationMake: MERCEDES-BENZModel: 250SL PAGODAYear: 1967Chassis Number: 11304310000494Registration Number: TBATransmission: AutoEngine Number: 12998012008821Drive Side: Left-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 93121 MilesMake: LHDClick here for more details and images

Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover of the Heinkel He 178 from the 100 Year of Powered Flight Collection. German aircraft designer Ernst Heinkel wished to get into the engine business, and knowing that piston-engine manufacturing was out of the question because of the expense and time involved, opted for the efforts of young Dr. Hans Joachim Pabst von Ohain in March 1936. Ohain was developing ideas on jet propulsion, and by September 1937, had a jet engine running, using hydrogen as fuel. The He 178 was a tiny aircraft, with a wingspan of just over 23 feet, and weighing less than 5,000 pounds. It was purely for research, although Heinkel already had fighter followon projects in mind. On August 27, 1939, Erich Warsitz became the world's first jet pilot by lifting the He 178 off the field at Marienehe, making a quick circuit, with landing gear extended, and then landing.

Steve Ferguson (American, B. 1946) "1954 Boeing 367-80" Signed lower left. Original Watercolor painting on Cold Press Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover of the Boeing 367-80 from the 100 Year of Powered Flight Collection. Like the Boeing B-47 bomber, the "Dash-80" as it was known, had a 35 degree sweep to its wings. It had four Pratt & Whitney JT3P turbojets mounted in pods on the wings. The first flight took place on October 5, 1954. The first sale was to the United States Air Force, which bought the tanker/transport concept, and ultimately purchased more than 600 of the aircraft. The "Dash-80" was redesigned as the model 707 for marketing purposes, and quickly established itself as the new wave in aircraft, making all of the standard four-piston engine transports obsolete overnight. The 707 had stiff competition with the Douglas DC-8, but Boeing was a more aggressive company, and marketed not only a wide variety of 707 models to suit its target market, but also introduced later models including the 727 and 737. Image Size: 16.25 x 14 in. Overall Size: 20 x 15 in. Unframed. (B17171)

A very rare, Vintage-era, lightweight manufactured by the Abingdon King Dick company of Tyseley in Birmingham. Powered by a 174cc overhead-valve single mated to a three-speed Albion Engineering gearbox. A handsome machine.This ultra-rare Vintage-era lightweight was manufactured by the Abingdon King Dick company of Tyseley, Birmingham, a firm whose name is more readily associated with high-quality tools. Known as Abingdon Motorcycles from 1903 until 1926, the company was renamed AKD (Abingdon King Dick) in 1926 and produced a range of 147cc to 346cc single-cylinder motorcycles until 1933, when they decided to concentrate on their successful range of King Dick mechanics' tools.The Model 10 formed part of AKD's all-new range for 1927 and was powered by a 174cc overhead-valve, four stroke engine, supplied by the Swiss Moser company, which drove via a three-speed Albion gearbox. This engine was also used by Rex Acme, though AKD's literature describes it as their own Abingdon King Dick unit.To our eyes this little power unit seems a touch rudimentary but, in fact, it was quite advanced for its day. A single camshaft running across the back of the engine case is rotated by the half-time pinion, which also drives the magneto. The parallel pushrods are situated at the back of the cylinder, and operate rockers that run forwards to operate two parallel valves set vertically in the cylinder head. The high camshaft and compact valve gear would discourage valve float at any revs that could be sustained by the rest of the engine, and the nearly square engine dimensions and aluminium piston promised that plentiful revs would be available. The closely-spaced parallel valves allowed the combustion chamber to be efficiently shaped, and if their exposure looks a bit primitive, we have to remember that cooling was more important than lubrication in the 1920s. The good news continued inside the engine with a roller bearing big-end, and the crankshaft, camshaft and valve rockers all ran on ball bearings.This 1928 machine (Frame no. 5215) was restored prior to being inherited from his uncle by the previous keeper, it was not known when it was last used, though it was entered in the VMCC's TT Week Vintage Assembly in 1981 (programme on file). Some re-commissioning has been carried out, and the AKD now runs and rides, however the customary safety checks will be required before it returns to the road. Accompanying documentation consists of a selection of 'before restoration' photographs, an old-style continuation logbook (issued 1934), ten old tax discs (1930-1934) and assorted correspondence.This is a good-looking, late-20s British lightweight that would be welcome on the Banbury Run and any number of VMCC events.SpecificationMake: AKDModel: MODEL 10 1¾HPYear: 1928Registration Number: UT 3695Engine Number: M572Click here for more details and images
