Those seeking a project with which to while away the upcoming winter, need look no further than this partly restored Lagonda Rapier with Ranalah Sports coachwork as, according to the vendor, there is now little more than the body left to rejuvenate. Certainly much graft and investment has already been committed, with receipts for £9,107.41 in recent times alone. To give potential buyers some idea, the following items of 'YS 9445' have already been refurbished or replaced: the chassis; four-cylinder engine; carburettors; water pump; starter motor; magneto; radiator; exhaust manifold and system; clutch; preselector gearbox; propshaft; differential; wheels; Hartford dampers; brake shoes; rev-counter; speedometer; fuel tank; wiring loom; headlamps; and flooring. Known to the Lagonda Register and previously finished in Red teamed with Black interior trim, this exciting, part-completed project is now being offered together with most related receipts, a bulging history file and the original, rare Lagonda owners' instruction manual.

With values of the original 1,590 2.7 RSs having surpassed £500,000 and heading towards the £million mark, it's unsurprising that interest in quality evocations continues to escalate. However, 'ABW970L' is no ordinary replica, but a totally re-engineered car of very high modern specification. It was decided the basis should be a Grand Prix White 911 equipped with G50 transmission and factory-fitted air conditioning, but no sunroof, and a perfect 1987 3.2 Carrera was duly sourced in Italy in 2006 by marque specialist Autofarm. They then subjected it to a full bare-shell restoration, using steel or fibreglass panels as per the original Carrera RS. The engine was fully blueprinted, balanced and re-engineered by Nick Fulljames to 3.5-litre specification, complete with high compression pistons, 964 cams and stainless steel exhaust. The Getrag transmission was refurbished with a new limited slip differential. The suspension was re-assembled with new Bilstein dampers front and rear, uprated torsion bars, and adjustable front anti-roll bar. The braking system now features a Brembo 4-pot caliper conversion and vented discs all round. The car sports genuine 7J and 9J 16 inch Fuchs alloy wheels shod with Michelin Pilot Sport tyres. The interior was completely refurbished with new period style Recaro seats. The deep pile carpet is to period lightweight style and steering is now effected by a Momo Prototipo leather rimmed wheel. This incredibly desirable Porsche also benefits from a large number of detail extras - eg uprated headlights; rear parking sensors; Toad Cat1 alarm; remote locking system etc. The total cost including donor car, duty and conversion of this 'nod to the past, built for the future' 911 was c.£100,000, and Autofarm have apparently said it would require nearer £150,000 to replicate it today. At 20,000 kilometers since completion it is barely run in and therefore represents astonishing value for the next keeper.

That W O Bentley was a technical mastermind is not in dispute, yet his career left so many unanswered questions. What if Bentley Motors had survived the depression? What if the war had not interrupted his period at Lagonda and the company had remained independent? More specifically, could a W O-designed Lagonda sports car have won Le Mans in 1949? John Weatheritt built a car that went some way towards answering the latter. In 1969 he acquired a derelict 1949 Lagonda Drophead Coupe for spares, but decided to resurrect it as light two-seater that W O might just have built for the 1949 race at La Sarthe, had the opportunity arisen. Bearing in mind the post-war restrictions that would've limited Bentley's options, Weatheritt only modified his donor car where essential, and only used materials and methods that would have been available in period. Ultimately the changes to the Drophead were limited to: moving the radiator forwards and downwards, lowering the spring rates front and rear to suit the reduction in weight, and altering the steering column rake. Narrow bodies and separate wings were still in vogue in 1949, so it seemed reasonable to echo the lines of the pre-war V12 Lagonda, and he constructed a 0.5 inch diameter 16 gauge tubular steel frame as the support for the new alloy body. He sought advice from key former Lagonda employees Frank Feeley and Donald Bastow. The product of Weatheritt's labours was 9cwt lighter than the standard car so, with 123bhp on tap from the original Vantage engine, it had a favourable power-to-weight ratio. The steering proved to be 'light, sensitive and accurate, the ride comfortable, and the handling superb'. Having ultimately competed in 'JDF 47' and driven it all over Europe he felt that a Le Mans win could just have been possible. His wonderful hybrid Lagonda is now available to enrich another enthusiast's motoring life.

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 126
Thomas B Jeffery of Chicago was best known for his Rambler-branded bicycles up until 1897, when he constructed his first prototype motorcar. Following positive reviews at the Chicago and New York motor shows, he entered the motor industry in earnest in 1900, setting up shop in the former Sterling cycle factory of Kenosha, Wisconsin. His new car was an instant success, and by the close of 1902 no less than 1,500 examples had been produced. This immediately made Rambler America's second largest car producer, as the figure was only bettered by Ransom Eli Olds's curved Dash Oldsmobile. Rambler was also among the first to experiment with steering wheels in place of tillers (though was initially unsure drivers would accept so dramatic a change), and was reputedly the first manufacturer to equip its vehicles with a spare wheel and tyre assembly. In 1914 Jeffery's son replaced the Rambler name with that of Jeffery in honour of his now deceased father, and two years later the company was sold to Charles Nash during the creation of Nash Motors. This charming righthand drive four-seater veteran is a single-cylinder, light touring model equipped with electric starter, three-speed gearbox, elliptic springing all-round, detachable tonneau, and brass side lamps and horn. It sports Red coachwork and quilted Black trim and would have cost its first owner the princely sum of $850 back in 1904. Apparently restored in the 1980s, the Rambler at one stage belonged to a senior national official of the Horseless Carriage Club of America, who reportedly completed a 150-mile tour in the car just before it was sold and imported to the UK in 2007. The vendor presently views the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and transmission as all being in 'good' condition and is selling 'BS 8472' complete with a VVC dating certificate that was granted in 2012.
