Supplied new by Henlys in late 1934, this well-travelled SS1 is fresh from long-term ownership and appears to only need some light recommissioning.Forerunner of the 'Jaguar' marque, 'SS' originally stood for the Swallow Sidecar & Coachbuilding Company, which had been founded in Blackpool, England by William Walmsley in 1922. The company branched out into motor manufacture in 1926, its first major success being an attractive sports saloon on the Austin Seven chassis. The design was the work of Walmsley's business partner, William Lyons, whose future Jaguar creations would confirm his reputation as one of the British motor industry's most gifted stylists. The SS1, launched in 1932, is a close-coupled coupé based on the Standard Ensign 16hp. The chassis and body were designed by Lyons; a long bonnet, tiny passenger compartment and helmet-type front wings imply the ultimate in high performance of the time and this is what ultimately created a blueprint for Jaguars of the future, combining sporting good looks with a better-than-average specification. Indeed, so successful was Lyons' new venture that production of Swallow-bodied cars ceased altogether in 1933, and SS Cars Limited was formed, initially as a subsidiary of the Swallow sidecar-building business.For 1934 the SS1 gained a new wide-track chassis and slightly enlarged Standard engines of 2,143cc and 2,663cc, while the body - now available in four different configurations - underwent yet another restyle. In this, its final form, the SS1 remained in production until 1936, by which time 2,503 examples of this ultimate version had been made.The final assembly of this Swallow Sports One (SS1) Tourer on to its Standard Motor Company rolling chassis (#245816) was completed on the 17th December 1934 and, as a late 1934 Model, it benefited from a wider track and a synchromesh gearbox. Finished in Birch Grey with a green interior and a green soft top and powered by a 2,663cc 68bhp straight-six. It was despatched to Henlys, registered MG 3624 and onward to a, rather proud we imagine, Mr L Garton of Surrey.Within the history file there is a ‘Buff’ logbook which lists a further four owners, the last one being a Mr Michael Roberts of Huddersfield, who appears to have written a running commentary on the maintenance of the car from 1981 until 1985. The car at this point was painted red, so presumably had been refinished between 1934 and his purchase.There appears to be a small gap in the car’s history until 1994/5 when it was exported to Germany when its keeper is listed as Herr Frederick Rausch of Langscheid. There is a raft of invoices for works completed between then and c.2008 along with some photographs detailing what looks like an engine rebuild. At this point the car carried the registration plate MK 06333. The SS then returned to the UK and joined a large private Collection, where it remained until recently. We are unsure of exactly when the car’s current silver and silver grey two-tone finish was applied, but it still presents well today. The odometer is reading 8,692 miles which we assume is 108,692 but can’t warrant.The lovely period interior is trimmed in Burgundy Leather with Art Deco ‘sunburst’ door cards and sports its original steering wheel and dashboard including the combined 100mph speedometer and 5,000rpm tach. Externally, the car is just what you would hope to find with decent silver/silver grey paintwork, running boards, chrome wire wheels wrapped in Firestone ‘whitewall’ tyres, a fold-down windscreen, big Lucas 165 headlamps and a chrome badge bar with an early AA badge.The SS is supplied with a large A4 history file containing details of previous keepers, old MOTs etc. and, as mentioned earlier, a lot of information from Herr Rausch during his ownership. Having been in storage for several years, the car will require a certain amount of recommissioning and we invite and encourage interested parties to view this lovely 1930s Tourer and form their own opinion.SpecificationMake: SWALLOWModel: SS1Year: 1934Chassis Number: 248516Registration Number: MG 3624Transmission: ManualEngine Number: 248501Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 8692 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Burgundy LeatherClick here for more details and images

Less than 4,400 miles in the last 46 years, four prior keepers and a careful restoration in the past, this is just what you had hoped to find.After having been in the coachbuilding business for four years with a range of special bodies on other manufacturers’ chassis, by 1931 William Lyons and the Swallow Company felt ready to launch their own brand of car. A ‘teaser’ campaign of advertising under the by-line, ‘Wait! – The SS is coming’ ran in the motoring magazines in the period up to the 1931 Motor Show. The new cars were finally unveiled on 9 October 1931.Although still making use of chassis, engines and components supplied by the Standard Company, Lyons’ new cars were very different from the earlier Standard Swallows. There were two models, the six-cylinder SS1 with 16hp or 20hp engines, and the SS2 with a four-cylinder 9hp engine of 1,006cc. The SS1 had a specially designed chassis, while the smaller car used a Standard Little Nine chassis.Both SS2 models had similar styling, with coupé bodies, dummy hood irons on blind rear quarters, and helmet type wings, but the larger car looked more impressive with its immensely long bonnet. A range of striking colour schemes was available for both models. Priced at £310, the SS1 was labelled as ‘the car with the £1,000 look’. The SS2 was even more reasonably priced, at £210, but naturally offered more modest performance, with a top speed of 60mph (96kmh) against the 75mph (120kmh) of its bigger brother.The SS2 was manufactured for two years in this form, and total production during this period was 550 cars. Survivors of this early type are now very rare. At the end of 1933, the Series 2 was introduced with a new longer wheelbase chassis, revised styling with flowing wings and a choice of bigger engines although still Standard side-valve units, of either 1,343cc (10HP) or 1,608cc (12HP). This revised model was also available in Saloon and Tourer form. It continued in production until 1935, and a total of 1,800 SS2 cars of all types were made of which only 154 were Series 2 Coupés.ATT 39 was originally registered on 31st December 1934 finished in Dual Green, according to the original 'Buff' logbook within the car's history file. The later green logbook lists the car as being black so it's assumed that the colour was changed within this period. Also within the file there are 14 old MOT certificates, the oldest being 1977 with the newest being 2007. There are a few invoices for work carried out but not many, however there is a Bill of Sale for ATT 39 in 2012 for the sum of £36,000. Showing 4,377 miles on the odometer, therefore assumed to be 104,377, and interestingly, looking back at the old MOTs, the mileage goes back to 00003 in 1978 and gradually moves forward to its current 4,377 showing that, in reality, the car has covered just 4,374 miles in the last 46 years. We can also see from the file that, prior to our vendors, it has had four keepers from new.Looking at the condition of the car, both internally and externally, it's clear that at some point this SS2 has been carefully restored, which fits with the owner prior to the Collection having paid £36,000 for it just over ten years ago. The car sits really well and the black paintwork and black fabric seem excellent if a bit dusty. The engine bay is tidy and would be enjoyable to detail and bring up to scratch, and the interior is lovely with great red leather seating, 'sunburst' door cards, very good carpets and that classic wooden dashboard with its well presented Jaeger instruments is a delight.A really good example of a rare car which, with a couple of days fettling, could be back on the show circuit.SpecificationMake: SWALLOWModel: SS2Year: 1934Chassis Number: 300486Registration Number: ATT 39Transmission: ManualEngine Number: 300486Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 4377 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Red LeatherClick here for more details and images

Fully restored in the past, this is a fine, large-engined Vintage car in excellent running order and fitted with very rare coachwork.'The 20/60 was considered by many to be far superior to the Rolls Royce 20hp at a chassis price some 25% less, and it is recorded that Henry Royce communicated from his home in Le Canadel in the South of France to those in Derby, 'keep an eye on what is going on at Sunbeam's, with a particular regard to this model.' - Bruce Dowell, Sunbeam: The Supreme CarThe arrival of designer Louis Coatalen at Sunbeam in 1909, and the pursuit of an effective competitions programme, enabled Sunbeam to establish a formidable reputation prior to WWI, its superbly made products enjoying a reputation rivalling that of the best from Alvis and Bentley thereafter.Introduced at the 1923 Olympia Motor Show and priced at £950 for the tourer model, the first 20hp Sunbeam of the post-war era enjoyed a production life in its initial form of only two years, being superseded by a new Twenty in 1926. The first Twenty featured a stout chassis frame and was powered by a 3,181cc overhead-valve 'six. This engine retained separate cylinder block and crankcase castings, and was fed by a Claudel Hobson carburettor mounted on the off-side while the auxiliaries, including water pump, dynamo and magneto, sat on the near-side. The right-hand change gearbox incorporated four forward speeds and reverse gear, with 'torque tube' drive to the rear axle, while the Twenty's suspension was typical of the day, with half-elliptic springs at the front and cantilever springs at the rear. According to Dowell, only 1,560 of the early-type Twenty were produced, of which only 45-or-so survive.Most of Sunbeam's 20/60 models were bodied at the factory, however this elegant example has been 'suited and booted' by Brainsby of Peterborough. There were several other Sunbeams bodied by Brainsby in this period, but most were open tourers, making this Doctors Coupé a notable exception. The coachwork is rakish and desirable with the hood easily folding back for convertible motoring and to the rear is a spacious dickey seat for two additional passengers.The car was subject to a body-off restoration in the late 1980s with a photographic record being kept, and since then it's has been used at home and abroad including an ascent of the mighty Stelvio pass in Italy. During recent ownerships, it's been continually fettled and improved. The recipient of substantial expenditure, and it shows. It's finished in a verdant leaf green over a lovely shade of pastel green and the black hood is well-lined, in good order and folds back easily after releasing two catches. The interior is upholstered in a lovely burgundy leather throughout, with just the right amount of ageing to feel like a favourite arm chair, and  the woodwork is equally fine with a dashboard that extends forwards to the delightfully raked Vee windscreen. A large Klaxon is fitted to the bulkhead next to an original brass Pyrex fire extinguisher, with a more modern item stowed in the tool box that sits atop the nearside running board. Under the bonnet, the 3-litre six is well detailed and tidy and we understand starts readily and exhibits really strong performance running easily in modern traffic.This is a fine, rare, large-engined vintage car that appears to be in first-rate running condition with a strong, powerful engine and far more sporting character than an equivalent Rolls-Royce of the period. It's a good looking car fitted with rare, possibly unique, coachwork and would be welcome anywhere.SpecificationMake: SUNBEAMModel: 20/06 SHORT CHASSIS DROPHEAD COUPÉYear: 1925Chassis Number: 1704EDRegistration Number: RK 3517Transmission: ManualEngine Number: 1795DDrive Side: Right-hand DriveMake: RHDInterior Colour: Burgundy LeatherClick here for more details and images

SS Cars Ltd. top of the range 2½-Litre 'Jaguar' saloon, sold new in Australia and restored by Nantes Brothers over there before returning home.'SS' originally stood for the Swallow Sidecar & Coachbuilding Company, which had been founded in Blackpool, England by William Walmsley. The company branched out into motor manufacture in 1926, its first major success being an attractive sports saloon on the Austin Seven chassis, designed by Walmsley's partner, one William Lyons. Marque status arrived in October 1931 with the launch of the SS1 which went some way towards establishing the pattern for future Jaguars, combining sporting good looks with a better-than-average specification and all at a bargain price.By the time the SS90 sports car arrived in 1935, William Heynes had joined as Chief Engineer. Based on a shortened SS1 chassis, re-engineered by Heynes, the SS90 again demonstrated Lyons' consummate skill as a stylist, its long bonnet, smoothly flowing wings, cut-away doors and truncated tail making it every inch the epitome of the 1930s sports car. Although undeniably handsome and good for 90mph, the SS90 was handicapped by the limitations of its sidevalve engine, a deficiency that would soon be rectified by another of Lyons' new recruits, gas-flow consultant Harry Weslake.In 1936, the new Weslake-developed overhead-valve 2,663cc power unit appeared in two new models: the 2½-Litre saloon and SS100 sports car. The introduction of the OHV engine was considered to justify the adoption of a new name for the series, William Lyons later recalling: "I immediately pounced on Jaguar as it had an exciting sound to me." ('Jaguar' would be adopted as the marque name in 1943, 'SS' having by then acquired a somewhat tarnished reputation.) With 104bhp on tap from the twin-carburettor 'six', the newcomers' performance at last matched the style that had already become a company hallmark.This beautifully restored SS 2½-Litre saloon would undoubtedly have turned a lot of heads when it landed, brand new, in Queensland Australia in 1937.In 1968, it was purchased by a Mr. Carter who felt that a restoration was on the cards, but it was only when his son inherited it in the 1990s, that he definitely decided it was worthy of a top restoration and he commissioned the Nantes Brothers, renowned in Australia for top quality SS Jaguar restorations. Besides an excellent restoration, a few improvements were made which included fitting a post-war 3½ litre crankshaft which was a period modification at the time offering more power and better reliability. This was an Australian domestic market upgrade because of the high mileages covered there by owners.The car was repatriated to England in 2004 and has been enjoyed on the showground, in concours competition, collecting trophies en route, featuring in various magazines and generally being admired. Classically presented in Old English White with Apple Green leather and gleaming hardwood, the exceptional quality of the Nantes Brothers restoration still is a sight to behold and would give any new owner a great sense of pride at any Jaguar event or tour.SpecificationMake: SSModel: JAGUARYear: 1936Chassis Number: 11963Registration Number: 599 XUCTransmission: ManualEngine Number: 251359 Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 10633 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: GreenClick here for more details and images

A fabulously presenting, running and driving example of Renault’s powerful four-cylinder side-valve engined XB Tourer. Complemented by a fascinating history file and VCC Dating Certificate.Founded by Louis Renault and his brothers Marcel and Fernand in 1898, Renault quickly established itself as France's leading automobile manufacturer. The company's early years were marked by ground-breaking engineering and a string of impressive racing victories that captured the public's imagination. One of the pivotal moments in Renault's history came in 1904 when the company began producing its own engines, including the renowned AG twin that later evolved into the iconic AX, famously known as the 'Taxi de la Marne' during World War I. In 1905, Renault showcased its engineering prowess with a diverse range of models at the Olympia exhibition. Among them was the exceptional 14/20hp XB, a true embodiment of Renault's commitment to quality and innovation.This particular 1905 Renault XB, authenticated by the Veteran Car Club (VCC) with Certificate No.1777, has a fascinating history of participation in rallies both at home and abroad. During its rallying days, a previous owner fitted it with a two-seater body, adding to its allure. Although it had not been used between 2008 and our vendor's purchase in 2013, this remarkable vehicle retains its VCC Dating Certificate and is supplied with an extensive history file, which we encourage potential buyers to peruse.Underneath the classic exterior, the 1905 Renault XB showcases the remarkable engineering for which the company was renowned. Powered by a conventional, four-cylinder, side-valve engine with a displacement slightly exceeding 3-litres, this vehicle offers a balance of power and sophistication. The distinctive coal-scuttle bonnet, rear-mounted radiator, semi-elliptic suspension, and 3-speed gearbox contribute to a driving experience that is both exhilarating and refined.Recommissioned and now running and driving as wonderfully as it presents, this car stands as a testament to the pioneering spirit of Renault and its commitment to excellence. With its rally heritage, unique two-seater body, and a provenance verified by the VCC, this car represents a rare opportunity to own a piece of motoring history. The included VCC Dating Certificate and extensive history file further enhance the appeal of this remarkable vehicle. Don't miss the chance to acquire a true icon of automotive heritage.SpecificationMake: RENAULTModel: XB 14/20HP TOURERYear: 1905Chassis Number: 113Registration Number: BF 6182Transmission: ManualEngine Number: 931Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 1 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Black leatherClick here for more details and images

A simply stunning 1927 20hp, one of only two bodied by Brewster as a Brougham de Ville and featured in numerous Rolls-Royce publications.    Following World War I, Rolls-Royce abandoned the ‘one model’ policy they had previously employed, and sought to expand within the luxury top tier echelons of the motor car industry and in 1922 the all-new 20hp or Twenty was introduced to their lineup alongside the simply fabulous 40/50hp Silver Ghost.The Twenty was built to reflect Henry Royce’s interest in contemporary trends within the American motor car industry, incorporating a singular construction of engine and gearbox, and featuring the modern innovation of a central ball change gearbox and a 'Hotchkiss drive' rear axle. The smooth and silent 3,127cc inline six-cylinder engine benefitted from being Rolls-Royce's first engine with overhead valves. While the car was well received overall, the three-speed, central change transmission was not well liked, so in 1925 the Twenty was reintroduced with four-wheel, servo-assisted brakes and importantly, a four-speed gearbox with a right-hand, gated gearchange.The 20hp was initially produced to target owner-drivers, but many were sold to customers with chauffeurs, somewhat expected with their clientele at the time. Only the chassis and mechanical parts were made by Rolls-Royce with the bodywork created and fitted by a coachbuilder selected by the owner.This, right-hand drive example, was purchased new, in rolling chassis form, on 31st January 1927 by Mrs A L Sylvester, a resident of the Plaza Hotel, New York and shipped to the USA aboard the SS Laconia. GAJ 15 wears unusual Panel Brougham de Ville coachwork by the respected coachbuilder Brewster, a company acquired by Rolls-Royce of America Inc. in December 1925.Presenting in simply fabulous condition, this wonderful example retains its original body and is one of just two built on the 20hp chassis. Credited to Henry Peter, 1st Baron Brougham and Vaux (1778-1868), this style of bodywork is noted for its formal upright and square appearance with a forward curving swage line in front of the rear compartment doors. This style was commonly seen on horse-drawn carriages of the time and, when the motorcar was introduced, many carriage designs were simply adapted by coachbuilders to accommodate an engine at the front as opposed to horses. This formal style is often referred to as a Town Car and would likely have been used for taking the owner(s) to the theatre or opera or other formal occasions. The well presented brightwork is nickel silver, and the style of the vertically striped paintwork is known as Dutch Pink although, in this case, it's undoubtedly red and not pink.Reportedly by Fabergé, the door furniture in the cabin is silver and enamel. The grey cord upholstery is not believed to be original, however, it presents well and the pull-down blinds are silk, albeit expectedly fragile. To confirm the high level of opulence, there is a speaking tube for the passengers to communicate with the chauffeur who sits on black leather seating. The solid artillery wheels present well. GAJ 15 changed hands five times whilst in the USA and was resident in the Powers Automobile Museum in Connecticut in the 1940s and '50s. The car returned to the UK in 1991 and soon after its arrival the engine was stripped and rebuilt before being stored between 2000 and 2005.Within the car's history file there is a list of all its owners in the USA up to and including the immediately preceding owner in the UK. Other documentation includes copies of the original Order Form and Chassis cards, photocopied literature, a quantity of old MOTs and tax discs, copies of previous registration documents, a current V5C and a most impressive quantity of bills for works carried out and parts purchased whilst with previous owners. The car has benefitted from some gentle recommissioning in our vendor's ownership having been purchased from an elderly gentleman who sadly wasn't able to maintain it due to failing health.This exceptional motor car comes complete with tools, jack, hubcap tool, rim lever and special grease gun, etc., all housed under the front seats and has a period-correct, Flying Lady mascot on a correct cap. It also comes with an original instruction book, a full set of keys for ignition, bonnet locks, rear compartment, and the padlocks on the spare wheels and the fuel can. Side-screens for the front compartment are kept in a black bag in the rear compartment. This car is featured in several publications including Rolls-Royce in America by John Webb de Campi; The Rolls-Royce Twenty by John Fasal, and Coachwork on Rolls-Royce by Lawrence Dalton. A die-cast scale model of this particular car has been made by Top Marques of Honiton and an example is included in the sale.With the other car bodied in this style still residing in the USA, and with both examples being owned by the same family in the 1960s, this is a fabulous opportunity to own a very special motor car that epitomises why Rolls-Royce were considered, and remain, the 'Best Car in the World'.SpecificationMake: ROLLS-ROYCEModel: 20HP PANEL BROUGHAM DE VILLEYear: 1927Chassis Number: GAJ15Registration Number: BF 4349Transmission: ManualEngine Number: D5WDrive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 1 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Black/Grey Click here for more details and images

A fully restored and show-winning example of Chevrolet's much-admired Series AE DeLuxe Sport Roadster.The Chevrolet Series BA Confederate was manufactured by Chevrolet in 1932 to replace the 1931 Series AE Independence. The BA carried over much from the Series AE and by model-year 1932, Chevrolet offered 14 different body style choices, which were all supplied by Fisher Body. The choices were now separated into ‘Standard’ and ‘DeLuxe’ with the distinguishing feature being that on either side of the bonnet the previous louvres were replaced by opening vents, finished in a distinctive chrome on DeLuxe models.Touted by Chevrolet as ‘The Great American Value’, its 1932 passenger car line-up offered outstanding roadworthiness and durability, the two most important features to Americans looking to stretch scarce dollars in the midst of the Great Depression. Mechanically, the new Chevy was nothing if not robust; it used the high-torque 194 cu in (3,180cc) ‘Stovebolt’ inline six-cylinder engine (formerly the province of the company’s higher-priced 1920s models) but now upgraded with a downdraught carburettor (for improved throttle response) and a higher compression ratio to produce 60bhp, complementing that with a counterbalanced crank for smoother running. A 3-speed synchro-mesh transmission was fitted, and a free-wheeling mode called ‘Wizard Control’ was standard, which permitted the car to coast when the driver's foot was lifted from the accelerator. In addition, there were four-wheel brakes and five chassis crossmembers for increased rigidity and a more solid feel.Chevrolet also benefited from the talents in its Art & Colour Department, whose designers from the coachbuilding industry added such stylish details as the bonnet vents and Cadillac-inspired front grille.The car presented here is a fully-restored 1932 Chevrolet (Series BA) Confederate DeLuxe Sport Roadster coming from the small private collection of a Somerset enthusiast and gentleman, renowned for his passion, skill and eye-for-detail when it comes to older American cars. The car was sourced by him from the US and shipped back to his workshop, where a ground-up restoration commenced. No area was left untouched, with all processes carried out properly, methodically and to the highest standards. Specialisms such as painting and trimming were outsourced to trusted individuals, all combining to great effect. The car was a true labour-of-love and went on to win at numerous Concours events and shows, the quality of it evident to all. Sadly, the Collection was sold off to other enthusiasts before the gentleman passed away. This Sport Roadster was one of his favourites, but now it must be sold too, being diligently overseen by his widow and family friends.This stylish Sport Roadster is a rare sight on UK-roads, but turns-heads like no other car, so be ready to chat about it! It's freshly serviced and absolutely ready for 1930s, US-style, top-down open-road motoring.SpecificationMake: CHEVROLETModel: DELUXE SPORT ROADSTERYear: 1932Chassis Number: AE21Registration Number: KSL 171Transmission: Manual Engine Number: 2316835 Drive Side: Left-hand DriveMake: LHDInterior Colour: GreenClick here for more details and images
