Lot 36
A 1968 MG C roadster, registration number ORY 88G, chassis number G-CN1/1718-G, engine number 29G-RU-H/1497, red. Announced in October 1967 the new MG C in both GT and roadster form, was BMC's answer to the aging big Healey. They would remain in production for only two years (4542 roadsters) and (4457 GTs), and unfortunately were not the success MG was hoping for. They were criticised in period for poor handling and performance but time is a great healer and the MG C is now recognised for the great car it should always have been. This right hand drive home market roadster was originally supplied by Joseph Cockshoot & Company Limited. Finished in Snowberry white with black interior and matching soft top. The MG is also specified with the optional extras of overdrive, heater, folding hood and steel wheels. The MG was restored by a previous owner and the colour subsequently changed to red. Also the wheels have been changed from the original steels to wires. Still presenting well, the MG has a history file containing receipts, notes outlining works carried out including an engine rebuild in 2012 by Steve Curtis at Holmes Racing with a balanced clutch cover and lightened fly wheel (11lbs removed). Works carried out by our vendor, who acquired the MG in September 2016 include body repairs, replacing the seats with correct C items in black leather, new boot carpet set, fitting inertia seat belts and numerous other service items. Offered for auction with the aforementioned history file containing receipts, MOTs, DVLA owner history and a Heritage certificate, this MG C is now said to be running and driving well and is only being offered for sale due to the acquisition of another classic MG. V5C, MOT to June 2019, tax exempt See illustrations
Lot 42
A 1954 Triumph TR2 long door, registration number LSV 274, chassis number TS 3044, red. Early long door TR2s are highly sought after because of their eligibility to enter some of motorsports most prestigious events, including the Mille Miglia. Long door TR2s are much lighter than their later siblings which results in much sprightlier performance. This early example is finished in red with a black leather interior piped in red with black carpets and has inertia seat-belts fitted for safety. Weather gear consists of a full tonneau cover, side screens and a new hood. Enthusiast owned since 2011, the Triumph has been well maintained including the replacement of the engine two years ago with a reconditioned low mileage item supplied by Marksdanes. This very attractive and sporting Triumph offers tremendous value in today's market. V5C, MOT and tax exempt See illustrations
Lot 67
A 1931 Alvis TK 12/60 Beetleback two seat sports and dickey, registration number OV 2047, chassis number 8943, body number 13837, blue. The Alvis 12/50 & 12/60 are amongst the most highly sought after sports cars of their day and have an enthusiastic following both in Britain and worldwide. Testing a 12/60 in 1931 Motor Sport found that a top speed of 80 mph was achievable and a frugal 30 mph could be obtained. These figures today make the 12/60 a very usable vintage car. This charming 12/60 still carries its original coach built Carbodies beetleback body and original chassis. Information taken from Alvis Car & Engineering Car record (photocopy) it can be seen that the Alvis was registered on 29-6-31 and was sold to a Mr Frank Hallam. 8943 was equipped with Rotax lighting, 12 volt electrics, Smiths clock and speedometer, Dunlop tyres, Woodhead front springs and bolt on wire wheels. This TK 12/60 is presented in very good condition. The bodywork is finished in blue and has a contrasting grey leather interior with matching carpets. It is an older restoration that has mellowed gracefully. The extensive history file accompanying the car contains a run of MOTs from 1964 - 2005 and its last MOT was passed in 2016 without any advisories (now MOT exempt). Numerous receipts from marque specialists including a recored radiator 2014 (£1,050), a carburettor rebuild in 2015 and new SU fuel pump. There is a handwritten note of all works carried out since 1996, a photograph of the car in Woolacombe High Street (1931) and a record of 8943 being road tested by Auto Car in 1952 by B Sandeman-Craik. 8943 started and ran well on our inspection to take catalogue photographs and can only be described as beautiful from every angle.
