1987 Corvette Callaway Twin Turbo Registration Number: BSB3775 (Texas, USA Registration) Chassis Number: 1G1YY2185H5108293 The Calloway Twin Turbo was a very high performance alternative to Chevrolet's standard Corvette. Offered by Callaway Cars under license from Chevrolet between 1987 and 1991, it was available at Chevrolet dealers by selecting a special option on the order specification sheet. The car came with normal Chevrolet warranty as well as an additional one-year 12,000-mile warranty from Callaway Cars. The conversion cost a massive $26,995 over the price of a base model Corvette and consisted of taking the engine out of the car and performing extensive modifications along with installing two turbochargers. Making over 380bhp, over 500 cars were subject to the conversion. One derivative of the Twin Turbo Corvette, the 880 bhp Callaway SledgeHammer recorded a speed of 254.76 mph making it the fastest road-going car at the time. Presented in metallic silver with black leather sports interior, the car is fitted with a six-speed manual gearbox. Paperwork with the car suggests a number of special options and upgrades were later made to further improve performance and Toyo Proxes R888 tyres are fitted. Mileage is recorded as 14,757 and a file containing various documents, correspondence and Calloway Owner’s Manual accompanies the car. Included in this documentation is a photocopy of a C&E 388 form dated July 1993 suggesting that duties were paid coming into the UK at that time, although the vehicle does not appear to have been UK registered. Buyer's Premium for lots 1-10 will be at the reduced rate of 15% plus VAT.

At its 1948 launch the Jaguar XK120 instantly became one of the most admired sports cars of its era. Well known for a chassis capable of great handling, a powerful 3.4 litre straight six engine and record-breaking top speed, evidenced first he factory test driver Ron Sutton having famously driven the XK120 at 130 mph, beyond the 120mph which gave rise to the cars model name, and later by the recently deceased and much missed Norman Dewis setting outright class speed records on the Belgian motorways when, on 20 October 1953 at Jabbeke, he drove a Jaguar XK120 to 172.412 mph.Staying in production for almost 6 years, before being replaced by the XK 140, the 120 led to the C-Type and the victories at Le Mans, Reims etc and is rightly seen as the bed-rock of Jaguar's sporting success. Only some 12,055 examples were produced, the majority being exported as with this left hand drive example which was re-imported  from the United States, it having been in the ownership of a single family there for over 50 years, and is being offered fro sale by its sole contemporary UK custodian.The car is presents wonderfully in its original colours of black bodywork with biscuit/red leather trim. It is still fitted with its original engine and is reported to drive exactly as one of these classics Jaguars should. There is an abundance of power, crisp handling and brakes which, if treated with due respect, are more than up to the challenges of modern traffic. This elegant car comes complete with its Jaguar Heritage Certificate in its comprehensive history file and shows chassis number 673312, which confirms this as an export model Open Two Seat car. The XK 120, having been extensively campaigned in period (even Tazio Nuvolari drove a 120 at Silverstone at Sir William Lyon's personal invitation)  is eligible for a wealth of historic events such as the Mille Miglia, Classic  Le Mans, The Tour Auto, Goodwood Revival Meeting as well as the superb XK Club events and Jaguar enthusiast and Driver's Clubs. The next custodian of this superb machine will, doubtless, find plenty to occupy themselves with as they enjoy their motor car to the full. View this lot in our showroom and marquee preview day Friday 5th July 2019, Beamish, County Durham

1939 Velocette KTS/KSS project, 348 cc. Registration number FLA 955. Frame number 4747. Engine number KSS 8593. From its very inception in the mid-1920's Velocette's overhead camshaft K-type stamped its authority on its competitors, its victory in the Junior TT on its first outing establishing its credentials and kick starting a 20 year long distinguished competition career. By the end of the 1920s, Veloce's range of K-Series roadsters boasted variations on the theme that included Normal, Sports, Super Sports, Touring, Economy and twin-port models. Introduced in 1925, the KSS was the Super Sports version while the KTS tourer employed the same overhead-camshaft engine in virtually identical cycle parts, differences being confined mainly to mudguard style and wheel sizes. Velocette introduced the first practical foot-change on the K-type in 1931 and the arrival of the Mk II KSS in 1936 saw significant enhancements. All new for that year was the aluminium-alloy cylinder head with enclosed valve gear, together with the cradle frame and heavyweight Webb forks of the new MSS. In this form the KSS was to remain in production until late 1947, heavy production costs contributing to its demise, latterly Dowty pneumatic telescopic front forks were an option. The work required for assembly in production of the overhead camshaft engine was proving uneconomical compared with the high-camshaft pushrod 350cc MAC and its 250 and 500 family and the KTS was finally dropped from the range to make way for greater production efficiencies. FLA was first registered on the 1st January 1939 as a KTS (Tourer) with engine number 8507; by October 1950 it was with Leonard Goodwin of Coventry and sold to Dennis Heath again of Coventry Three Tuns Garage for £60, still with its original engine, on the 3rd May 1957. Michael Harris of Hinckley bought it in May 2010 and sold it to John in January 2012, by which time the engine had been changed to 8593. John stripped and overhauled the engine and set about a full restoration whenever other projects did not get in the way. This was never completed although much of the mechanical work appears to have been completed and the tank resprayed. Sold with the V5C, R.F.60A, receipt from 1957, receipts for parts purchased by John, a service manual and other manuals, prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the completeness of this project.

1961 Velocette Venom Clubman, 499 cc. Registration number 358 BLT. Frame number RS 16672. Engine number VM 5189 (see text). Introduced in 1956, the Venom sports roadster was derived from the touring MSS. The latter had disappeared from the range in 1948, reappearing in 1954 with a new swinging-arm frame and telescopic fork. The engine too was up-dated, changing to 'square' bore and stroke dimensions of 86x86mm and gaining an alloy cylinder barrel and 'head. Engine development pursued as part of the scrambles programme bore fruit in 1956 in the shape of the high-performance Venom and its 350cc sibling, the Viper. The MSS frame and forks were retained for the newcomers but full-width alloy hubs were adopted to boost braking power, and smart chromed mudguards fitted to enhance the models' sporting image. In 1960 'Clubman' versions of both were introduced, minus the enclosure panels of the standard models, which featured a raised compression ratio, Amal TT carburettor, 'racing' magneto, rear-seat footrests and a close-ratio gearbox among many other improvements. When supplied with the optional dolphin fairing, the model was known as the Clubman Veeline. Produced until the end of Velocette production in 1971, the Venom in its various guises represents the final glorious flowering of the traditional British sports single, and today these supremely well-engineered thoroughbreds are highly sought after. A total of 5,721 machines were produced between 1955 and 1970. In 1961 factory-prepared faired Velocette Venom and a team of riders set the 24-hour world record at a speed of 100.05 mph at Montlhéry, in France. It was the first motorcycle of any size to achieve an average speed of over 100 mph for 24 hours. This original example was John's favourite machine and received much attention and upgrading over the years of his ownership. Grove Classics state that it left the Veloce factory on the 17th March 1961 with engine 5689 and went to dealers Claude Rye on the Fulham Road in London; they sold it to Terrence Savage of Leyton on the 25th of March. He sold it to Ronald Gledhill of Enfield on the 29th July 1963; Roger Barrett of Waltham Cross then owned it on the 6th April 1965, followed by Andrew Holmes, John Murfin and George Taylor of Castleford in May 1976. By February 2006 John's wife had bought it, transferring ownership to him in June 2010. John set about a series of improvements, including an engine rebuild, belt clutch and electric start via a BTH mag. He rode it to France in 2010 and 2012. This very well sorted original Clubman will need light recommissioning before offering the next custodian a wonderful machine. Please note the V5C and R.F. 60 state the engine number to be 5689. Sold with the V5C, R.F. 60, MOT's from 2010 at 66 miles, today it is at 27,954, testimony to a well sorted and useable machine, a letter from Grove Classic confirming its originality, various receipts and manuals.

1988 Honda VFR750R, RC30, 748 cc. Registration number F829 LKN. Chassis number RC30 2001744. Engine number RC30E 2001795. One of the modern era's few immediately collectible classics, the Honda VFR750R - better known as the "RC30" - was created for just one reason; to win the World Superbike Championship, a feat it achieved in the nascent series' first two seasons of 1988 and 1989. While American Fred Merkel was bringing Honda its first two WSB crowns, Britain's Carl Fogerty used an RC30 to win the TT F1 World Championship in 1988 and 1989 and the equivalent FIM Cup in 1990. No mere short circuit racer, the RC30 and its derivatives proved durable enough to win a hat-full of Endurance Classics too. That this latter requirement was also part of the design brief may be determined from the fact that a quick release front fork and single sided swinging arm - essential for speedy wheel changes - were part of an unrivalled specification that included a twin spar alloy beam, 16 valve V4 engine with gear driven cams, close ratio 6 speed gearbox and four pot brake calipers. The RC 30 was also the first production bike in the world to feature titanium alloy, which was used to make the con rods and no expense was spared on the rest of the machine either. Every component was the lightest and most expensive possible for a road bike and the result was a motorcycle which weighed a paltry 185 kilos. Six years later the legendary Ducati 916 would still be heavier. Each RC30 was hand assembled one at a time in the firm's Hamamatsu plant where the factory race bikes were built meaning that customers were virtually getting their own works bikes built for them. All of which did not come cheap; at the time of its launch to the public in 1988 an RC30 cost near double that of other super sports 750's. Despite the passage of time and the progress of motorcycle technology, the RC30 remains a match for the latest generation of sports bikes but possesses an exclusivity that none of them can approach, "No other bike from the late 80's is lusted after like an RC30" reckoned Bike magazine. Only 3000 of these machines were built. 2001744 is believed to have been of French origin and possibly had race history (French and German examples were restricted to 100 bhp whereas the Japanese examples had been restricted to 77 bhp). It was registered by BAT Motorcycles of Westerham on the 16th June 2003 and sold to John on the 18th December 2003; at this time it was painted silver, the rear mudguard has a Honda colour code NH 193P A for pearl crystal white and NH193H which is the normal multi-colour scheme. . He then set about a full respray and recommissioning, including a new speedo, indicators and mirrors. It is unknown what the mileage was at the time of purchase but the MOT's that followed list 2004 16 miles; 2005 668 miles; 2006 1,243 miles; 2007 1,814 miles; 2008 1,815 miles. It was then SORNed until 2016 on the 8th June it was recommissioned, MOT'd at 1,859 miles, 2017 1,964 miles. It was then laid up due his illness. Fitted with a new battery the bike fired up with ease and sounds very healthy although recommissioning should be undertaken. Sold with the V5C, V5, MOT's since 2004, workshop manual and various related paperwork.I spoke to someone recently who knew of the bike and he said that when my client bought it the colour was silver/grey with gold wheels. It is believed that these were provided by Honda for the track marshals at French circuits. My vendor only found this out after he had restored it. There is no paperwork to back this up though.

c. 1964 Honda C200, 90 cc. Registration number GMU 67B (not registered with DVLA). Frame number C200 165630. Engine number C200E 11853 Introduced in 1958, Honda's classic C100 Super Cub 'step-thru' moped gave millions of people the world over their first taste of two-wheeled mobility. Larger-engine versions of the original 50cc 'Cub was soon made available alongside sports models that were proper small motorcycles. The first nominally 90 cc sports model, the C200, arrived in 1963 boasting an overhead-valve engine of 86.7 cc that produced 6.5 bhp at 8,000 rpm. Its cycle parts were typically Honda, consisting of a pressed steel spine frame with swinging-arm rear suspension and leading-link front fork. The C200 lasted in production until 1967, latterly alongside the overhead-camshaft CS90. This machine came into the possession of our vendor with a deal for another motorcycle and is of little interest to him. There is no history with it although it appears to have undergone some restoration in the past. He reports that runs and rides with no issues and that all of the electrics work. There is no paperwork with this lot.

1960 Norton Dominator 99, 596 cc. Registration number RTY 629. Frame number R122D 88228. Engine number 83767 14P. Norton's 500 cc twin found a new home in the racing singles' 'Featherbed' duplex frame in November 1951. The newcomer - titled 'Dominator 88' - was the first production Norton roadster to feature the lightweight, race-proven chassis. Updated annually, by the decade's end the Dominator had received an alloy cylinder head, full-width hubs, welded rear subframe, alternator electrics, coil ignition and - for 1960 - the narrower 'slimline' Featherbed frame among countless other improvements. The model 99 was added to the Norton range in 1956 in order to provide a machine with a bit more power than the existing 500cc model 88, the extra torque quickly establishing its popularity. The larger capacity was achieved by increasing both the bore and the stroke of the engine, with which it is otherwise identical. The original magneto and dynamo electrics were replaced in 1958 by a coil, distributor and alternator set up; the model 99 however, never did get the down draught cylinder head. The paint finish for the standard version was poly chromatic grey with options of blue or post office red. The wideline featherbed frame on the first model 99 was superseded by the slimline in 1960, coinciding with a twin carburettor 99 sports special (99ss) being made available. The 99 remained essentially unchanged - apart from gaining alternator/coil-ignition electrics for 1958 - until dropped in 1962. RTY was owned by Thomas Umpleby of York in April 2015, selling it to our vendor in June 2015. Little used over the years the MOT history shows 2006 at 11,363 miles, 2012 at 11,478 and 2016 at 11,915 miles. Today the odometer shows 11,929 miles. Sold with the V5C, MOT history, the Dominator will need light recommissioning due its time in storage.

1951 BSA A7S Star Twin Plunger, 498 cc. Registration number HFU 220 (non transferable). Frame number ZA7S 18940. Engine number AA7 3067. Announced in September 1946, the A7 was BSA's first production parallel twin. The basic concept was in development by August 1939. Herbert Perkins and David Munro were the architects; two talented engineers building upon a foundation laid down by Val Page. It started as a rigid frame model, then went to optional plunger frame (1951) and finally to swinging in arm (1954). The engine was extensively revised for 1951 along the lines of the newly introduced Bert Hopwood-designed A10 650, and then in 1954 BSA's twins range was greatly expanded with the arrival of four new models featuring swinging-arm rear suspension. The introduction of the new duplex frame meant that the original A7's bolted-up gearbox had to go, but otherwise the engine remained much as before, though the new sports 500 - the A7 Shooting Star - featured an alloy cylinder head and detachable inlet manifold. With 32bhp on tap, the A7SS was good for a top speed in excess of 90mph. Production of all A7 models ceased with the introduction of the unitary construction A50 in 1962. HFU was first registered on the 5th April 1951 to Sidney Coupland, motorcycle dealer of Boston who used it as his demonstrator, he sold it to Denis Brader on the 18th, he sold it to Porters, motorcycle dealers of Spalding on the 24th May 1954, they sold it to Gerald Salter who a year later sold it to Guest, motorcycle dealers of King's Lynn, who in turn sold it to James Peacock of Norfolk in January 1956. By 1961 it was with Graham Coates of King's Lynn. In the early 1980's it was bought by Chris Owen of Peterborough as a basket case in need of a total rebuild (he remembers Sidney Coupland from his youth). This included all of the tinware, a new tank, wheels and an engine rebuild. At this time he had not registered it with DVLA who issued it an age related number JSU 977; later they allowed the original to be reissued. It was used as his main bike until being retired in 1990 and fully overhauled again over the winter of 2006/7. Sold in 2009 to J. Connelly of St. Albans who sold it in 2010 to Robert Colley of Sheffield. He sold it to our vendor in May 2012, when the mileage was 20,929, today it is 21,857. Sold with the V5C, R.F.60A, 2012 MOT, letter from Chris Owen and other paperwork, it is rare to find a machine with such a comprehensive history, with matching numbers and we recommend close examination of this machine. A gentle recommission should get you on the road with ease as it was last on the road in 2018.

1968 BSA Bantam D14, 175 cc. registration number RKD 154G. Frame number NC11847 D14B. Engine number NC11847 D14B. The Bantam was based on the German DKW RT 125, a design that was received as war reparations, with the Bantam as a mirror image so the gear change was on the right side as with other British motorcycles of the period. Over the years the model evolved through the D1 of 1948 to the D3, D5, D7, D10, D14/4 and finally in 1969 the D175. Production ceased in 1971. BSA introduced the D14 range in 1968, a one year only model. Production began late in 1967, and early engine prefixes were listed as D13, though this was never a model. The Supreme was now fitted with the 4-speed box, ending the Bantam's relationship with 3 speeds. The old exhaust pipe bore was found too restrictive for the new tune up, so a larger one was fitted. On the ever diminishing market for British motorcycles, BSA sought to make the Bantam yet more powerful. They increased the compression ratio to 10:1, resulting in a power increase to 13 hp. The bike would now shift along at the best part of 70 m.p.h; the market had changed from wanting the fuel-efficient three speeds D1, to the speedy D14/4. Asides from the diminished fuel efficiency, the high compression ratio made the bike notorious for difficult starting, as is normal with high performance engines. The Supreme and Sports models changed the style of air filter, but the Bushman kept the pretty D10 pancake type. The D14B relates to battery, electrics and swinging arm. RKD was first registered to Cundlel Motors of Liverpool on the 22nd November 1968 and sold to the Liverpool Grain Storage and Transit Company who operated in the docks of Liverpool from 1883 until they closed in 1988. It was then sold to Alfred Waltham of Formby in May 1973, followed by Alan Donahoe of Liverpool in November 1976. He sold it to its long term owner Raymond Brookfield of Ormskirk in November 1978. In 2011 a relative of his, John Birch comprehensively restored it to the current showroom condition and our vendor bought it in December 2017. The mileage at this time was 20,877, believed correct due to its usage. Sold with the V5C, V5, V.E.60 and various other paperwork, it is only being sold as our vendor does not use it due to its showroom condition.

1983 Triumph T140W TSS, 744 cc. Registration number A286 LVS. Frame number KEA 33983. Engine number KEA 33983. The T140W TSS was the last motorcycle model Triumph produced at their Meriden factory. Designed to appeal to the US market, the TSS had an eight valve Weslake Engineering cylinder head developed by Triumph's Brian Jones from a 1978/9 design originally commissioned from Nourish Racing of Rutland following 1960s designs for the 650cc twins by the famed Rickman Brothers. Launched in 1982, at a cost of £2,399 with an electric starter as standard, the all-new top end of the engine featured Cooper rings sealing the 8-valve cylinder head to the barrel. American Morris alloy wheels were an option with dual Automotive Products Lockheed disc brakes upfront as standard. The fins of the black painted engine were polished although, like the Triumph TR65 Thunderbird, many alloy cycle parts that had in the past been bright-polished or chromed were now painted satin black. Mudguards were stainless steel as were the Italian Radaelli rims for the wire-spoked wheel option. The high specification air-oil 'Strada' rear suspension units were supplied by Italian firm Marzocchi. With only 438 units believed to constitute the entire production run, survivors are becoming increasingly rare. At the time Triumph brochures stated "The Triumph TSS for 1983 has many new features, as you would expect all are in keeping with the finest British motorcycle tradition bearing witness to Triumph's long and glorious lineage. The heart of the TSS is Triumph's very latest performance 750cc 8-valve engine, now installed in the patented "Enforcer Frame" developed in conjunction with British Police Forces. This unique hand-built high performance motorcycle, with road handling to match, offers a combination which would not be complete were it not for the very special "lean machine" styling introduced for 1983. To ensure that you are at one with your TSS from the moment you take delivery, Triumph have revised the riding position, foot rests and foot controls are now more "rear set" and as such are in keeping with this truly magnificent Super Sports motorcycle." Unfortunately for Triumph, this was a time of strife at the factory, which resulted in the closure of the factory on the 23rd August 1983 and many machines were poorly put together. LVS was first registered on the 12th August 1983, some ten days before the end and will be one of the last Triumphs ever built. When our vendor bought her from Chris Hopkins of Hatfield (who had her since May 2014 the mileage was 8,829 and she was running very poorly. This was diagnosed as camshaft wear (one lobe was very worn) and the engine was then fully rebuilt (the old components are included in the sale). Now running as she should, this rare machine has rarely been ridden; MOT'd in 2015 at 9,067 miles, today it is at 9,079 miles.
