1982 Lancia Montecarlo Transmission: manualMileage:52225The Lancia Beta Montecarlo is a mid-engined sports car which was produced from 1975 through to 1982. Cars from 1975 to 1978 were known as a Lancia Beta Montecarlo and the latter cars produced from 1979 to 1982, were simply known as Lancia Montecarlo. Both series were offered in coupé and spider versions and were constructed by Pininfarina. The total production amounted to 3,835 first series Beta Montecarlo's and 1,940 second series, of which only 172 cars were right hand drive coupés.This particular example presents in fantastic, largely original condition. The vendor had the aim to sympathetically refresh the car, retaining as much of the original paint as possible. The car had some repairs to the sills and outer door skins earlier in its life but on the whole, our vendor was so impressed with the condition of the car when he saw it, he decided to buy it. The interior also presents in fantastic condition, showing it has clearly been in the hands of enthusiasts for its whole 41 years and 52,000 miles.Our vendor has spent a reasonable amount of money on the car whilst in his ownership, the largest invoice coming from Freelance Motors in Devon in 2018. The work carried out came to a total cost of £1,945.48, for work consisting of a Guy Croft racing exhaust, which gives a lovely tone without being too shouty. Other work included a wheel alignment, big end shells, sump replacement, front and rear springs, suspension poly-bushing, front shock absorber, a thorough service and various gaskets and mountings. The car has also been cared for by Darren Cooksey, who is hugely knowledgeable on Lancia Montecarlo's. He did a timing belt change, fuel pump change and recent carburettor rebuild, along with various other small jobs. This Montecarlo is an excellent example, which our vendor has enjoyed using regularly in the summer months and sometimes even uses it to commute to work. He reports the car is always a joy to drive.

1965 Ford Anglia 105E Rally Car Transmission: manualMileage:64960When the Anglia 105E was introduced in September 1959, Ford switched to an overhead valve engine for its smallest family saloon. The 997cc four-cylinder unit proved to be a very reliable unit and lent itself to being tuned, hence the success in Formula 3 and Formula Junior. The suspension retained the McPherson strut at the front and live rear axle however the gearbox was uprated to a four-speed unit helping the Anglia to a top speed of 73mph. Styling of the 105E was interesting with an 'open mouth' grille and reverse sloping rear window. The Anglia was an outstanding success for Ford, selling more than a million units until production ended in 1967.This Anglia is a rather special one, it is supplied with a category 1 MSA stage rally logbook, in date until 2026. The car has been a regular competitor in clubman rallying dating back as far as the 1991 Rally Britannia. Under the bonnet, you will find a pre-crossflow 1560cc engine with balanced bottom end and the vendor reports the cylinder head has seen some fettling too, but we don't know the exact specification. An aluminium radiator with high-flow fan has also been fitted. Fuel is fed through a single Weber 45 carburettor and the engine also benefits from electronic ignition. All of this power is fed through a close-ratio 'bullet box' from a Lotus Elan. The car has also been fitted with disc brakes. Handling is improved by the addition of adjustable lever arm rear dampers, a new set of 6" Lotus style steel wheels with Yokohama tyres and a 4.9:1 limited-slip-differential. In the safety department, the car has a full Safety Devices roll cage, Sparco rally seats and a fire extinguisher system. This Anglia will be an excellent way into historic rallying, at a very modest price compared with many of the cars it would compete against.

1929 Rolls-Royce Phantom I Dual Cowl Open Tourer Transmission: manualMileage:9064In 1925, the 'New Phantom', with its overhead-valve engine and four-wheel brakes was introduced. The example offered today left the factory in October 1928 for coachbuilders Arthur Mulliner to be fitted with coachwork for its first owner, Lord Hillingdon of Paulerspury, Northamptonshire. (A photograph of the finished car appears in 'Those Elegant Rolls-Royce' by Lawrence Dalton). In the post-war years, it fell into disrepair and was finally taken off the road in 1961. After lying unused for over 40 years, the car was then purchased in 2002 by the previous owner who set about returning '83WR' to its former glory.This most elegant example has have been the subject of an extensive restoration over the years with the engine rebuilt from the ground up by noted Rolls-Royce and Bentley specialists, Ristes, in 2003. The cylinder blocks were rebored and honed to +040" with oversized pistons fitted, top and bottom faces skimmed and waterways cleared with external surfaces stove enamelled as original. The crankshaft was ground to undersize with new white metal bearings fitted. Oilways were cleaned out and new plugs fitted with new white metal bearings to con-rods and new camshafts fitted. The bottom face has also been skimmed flat with new valve guides, exhaust valves and rocker faces built up and re-profiled. The slipper drive was re-lined and set to the correct torque setting with the oil pump reconditioned. All ancillary items including dynamo, magneto, water-pump etc were also fully re-conditioned and finished as per original.The carburettor was reconditioned to factory settings with new spark plugs, leads and a freshly stripped and re-conditioned Autovac with all new parts as necessary. The exhaust system was also replaced from manifold to fish-tail tip. The radiator was fitted with a new core and all shutters were nickel plated, new hoses and original pattern clips throughout.Both front and rear spring leaves were separated, cleaned, de-scaled, greased and re-assembled. The rear shock absorbers were dismantled, cleaned and painted with all new leather gaiters fitted to the spring with triple lock panels on the running boards for access. The chassis was also stripped to bare metal with all mechanical items removed, sandblasted, painted and refitted. The Front axle was also sandblasted and painted with kingpins built up and re-machined to size. New bushes and bearings were also fitted, new ball pins fitted to all steering swivel joints and even the steering box was stripped and checked for wear, cleaned and re-assembled. All shock absorbers were stripped, cleaned and painted, worn shafts were built up and re-machined to size. The wheel hubs and bearings were stripped, cleaned and inspected for wear then repacked with grease and reassembled. The cross steering tube and side steering tube swivels were re-set to correct poundage with new leather gaiters.All hubs have dismantled, cleaned and inspected for wear then re-packed with grease and re-assembled. The universal joint in the torque tube has been re-bushed with new leather seal fitted. New linings have been fitted all round and the front drums skimmed. Importantly, for a two tonne car, new brake cables have been fitted both front and rear. The wheels have been dismantled, re-spoked and a stove enamelled finish applied with new tyres and inner tubes including a side-mounted spare.The original Mulliner body has long-since gone to be replaced with a very well-constructed duel-cowl open tourer torpedo coachwork. The frame is Ash with aluminium panels, aluminium wings and a new aluminium firewall. The new bonnet has been built with period-style sliding side vents, nickel silver hinges and rivets which match the handbrake, gear lever and all lighting equipment. The luxurious interior is trimmed in high quality, red leather and contrasting black mohair hood, hoodbag and side-screens. The instrument panel presents with a deep gloss finish and garnish rails.The comprehensive array of instruments themselves have all been with the main ignition and lighting functions also stove-enamelled and re-lettered as have the controls on the steering column. The wiring loom has been replaced with a cotton-braided unit in the original colours and even following the original conduits. The original bell-shaped Lucas headlamps are fitted with main and dipped beam operated through the dash-mounted dimmer switch. Brake lights and indicators are incorporate within sidelights to the front and classic rear divers-helmet rear tail lamps. Even the Klaxon horn has been fully re-conditioned and operational.Needless to say, Wilton carpet can be found at feet level with an additional hinged panel behind the front seat to provide storage for the side-screens. The nickel-plated theme continues with the windscreen frame housing, interior mirror and exterior wing-mirror (carried on the side-mounted spare wheel). Not to mention the rear luggage rack fitted with reconditioned Brooks 'Brexton' trunk. Also supplied is the wheel spanner, bottle jack, starting handle, grease gun, extensive history file and owner's handbook. This represents a supremely elegant motor car produced by the most famous marque in the world, there is little doubt, with some light fettling, that it would win prizes were she shown.Quite simply, beautiful.

1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 427 Transmission: manualMileage:11729This Chevrolet Camaro SS 427 is an impressive example of the iconic classic American muscle car, offered from long-term ownership, and enhanced with a number of discerning performance upgrades. Originally manufactured in Norwood Ohio, this example was imported and first registered in the UK in February 1990 and was with its previous owner for 28 years and used sparingly whilst being kept in fine mechanical health, having only covered approximately 5,000 miles during this time.Repainted in 1993 as part of a photographic restoration, this Camaro SS is now finished in Fathom Green over a black vinyl-trimmed interior, featuring chrome and wood veneer trim accents.

1960 Austin Healey Sprite Mk. I 'Frogeye' Transmission: manualMileage:59351The 1958 Austin Healey Sprite was announced to the motoring press in Monte Carlo on 20th May 1958 and just prior to the Monaco Grand Prix. Designed by the Donald Healey Motor Company, the car came under the BMC umbrella with production being carried out at the MG works at Abingdon in Oxfordshire. Its specifications were basic being without exterior door handles; the driver and passenger were required to reach inside to open the door and access to the spare wheel and luggage compartment was achieved by tilting the seat-backs forward and reaching under the rear deck. This cost cutting exercise kept the price down to £669. Power was supplied by a 948cc overhead valve engine derived from the Morris Minor and Austin A35. The cute looks soon led to it being known as the 'Frogeye' in the UK and 'Bugeye' in the US. Its nickname derived from the headlights prominently mounted on top of the bonnet and inboard of the front wings.Originally registered on 19th May 1960 and still bearing its original registration number of 855 PPE, this Austin Healey was manufactured on 21st April 1960 and was despatched to the supplying dealer, Wimbledon Motors Limited on 2nd May. The current vendor is a very knowledgeable enthusiast and he purchased this 'Frogeye' in 2019 and restored the car throughout the lockdown period. Floors have been replaced as have the spring hangers and sills on both sides. The engine is a 1098 unit and has previously had a rebuild with the cylinder head being gas flowed. The head was skimmed giving a compression ratio of 9.5:1. The vendor has carried out additional engine works, replacing the big-ends and also the cam followers, this engine also has a high-lift camshaft. An aluminium radiator has been fitted as have new brakes and tyres. The rear axle ratio is 3.55:1 and fuel is delivered via a Weber carburettor, the original carburettor is supplied with the car. The colour combination is the original according to the Heritage Certificate, the exterior being Nevada Beige and the interior is Cherry Red. Supplied with a V5C registration document and a good collection of invoices, together with two buff logbooks. With the upgrades and enhancements this Austin Healey benefits from it may not appeal to the purists, however if you wanted to buy a 'Frogeye' that has been thoroughly, yet sympathetically worked on and is ready to be enjoyed, then look no further. Often described as a car with a smile on its face, this is a car that is sure put a smile on the face of its new owner.

Lot 455

1969 Triumph TR6R Tiger, 650cc. Registration number RFG 171G. Frame number CC13329 TR6R. Engine number CC13329 TR6R. All TR6’s were known as a Triumph Tiger. There were 4 basic models: TR6R (Roadster & now the standard version), TR6C (with high pipes), TR6P (Police), & TR6RV (a Roadster with an optional 5-speed transmission). In 1969 the piston top, which was wedge shaped, now has a dome configuration with squish area. The result is that the piston is more evenly loaded as the charge fires in the combustion chamber, giving better durability, and possibly less high frequency vibration. Compression, 9:1, is the same. New hardened camshafts and tappets were also used. RFG, matching numbers, was imported from the USA for our vendor with the intention of a sympathetic restoration, the paint is all original and the engine ran well but the carburettor and fuel lines have all been overhauled, the seat has also been restored. it is being sold as he is reducing his collection. Sold with the V5C, and various receipts

When finished, the Honda was ridden locally until another project became a distraction and this bike moved to the back of the garage.  Recent recommissioning work includes replacing the carburettor and battery and the bike was then started in preparation for sale.Estimate: £800 - 1,200To be auctioned along with a fantastic selection of other vehicles on July 1st at our Showell Farm site, SN15 2NU with viewing on the 29th and 30th of June, you can also join us at our Nostalgia Social cars & coffee event on June 25th.

Over the years they have won numerous prizes and attended many rallies and tours which brought him and his family much pleasure.

1964 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible Transmission: automaticMileage:47611Freshly restyled for 1961, Cadillac continued the trend towards cleaner, less fussy styling but there was still plenty of glitz and glamour about the latest model line-up. Notable features included a new-look full-width grille, boldly sculptured side mouldings and smaller rear fins. All 1961 Cadillacs rode on a 129.5 wheelbase chassis with just one powertrain option, the 390ci, V8 combined with GM's sophisticated Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. Rated at 325hp and fed by a four-barrel Rochester carburettor, the big V8 offered plenty of lazy performance, while power brakes were also standard across the range, retaining the finned rear drums and vacuum-operated parking brake release system introduced the previous season. Lavishly equipped, standard equipment included power steering, an external rear vision mirror, vanity mirror, dual-speed wipers and a choice of no less than eight interior colour combinations. Popular options included power windows, air conditioning, cruise control, power door locking system and six-way power seats. More Americans aspired to own a Cadillac than any other car back in the 1960s and having one parked in the driveway was confirmation you had made it.This imposing Cadillac has been owned by an enthusiastic and knowledgeable vendor since October 2018. Finished in the delightful colour combination of light blue metallic with cream interior, this fabulous car presents well. The paintwork is in good order as is the interior, this car is in good condition given it is 60 years old this year. We are informed that the 6.8 litre (415ci) V8 engine runs well although we are informed the gearbox has a serious oil leak and will require removal and attention. Supplied with a V5C registration document and with summer fast approaching this American classic should prove hugely popular and worth a visit alone.Interested parties should note that the gearbox on this car has a serious oil leak and will require removal in order to repair. We apologise for any mis-representation.

1989 Volkswagen Golf Mk. I Clipper Cabriolet Transmission: manualMileage:103375In May 1974, Volkswagen presented the first generation Golf as a modern front-wheel drive, long-range replacement for the Volkswagen Beetle. Later Golf variations included the Golf GTI 'hot hatch' introduced in June 1976, a diesel powered version from September 1976, the Jetta notchback saloon in October 1979 and from the end of 1979 the Golf cabriolet built by Karmann. September 1983 saw the introduction of the second generation Volkswagen Golf, the Mk. II, that grew slightly in terms of wheelbase, exterior and interior dimensions while retaining, in a more rounded form, the Mk. I's overall look. There was not a Golf Mk. II based cabriolet model, instead, the Mk. I cabriolet was continued over the Mk. II's entire production run. Karmann, in Osnabrück, Germany, was until 2009 the largest independent motor vehicle manufacturing company in Germany. For more than a century, they have undertaken various roles, from design to production and assembly of components for various automobile manufacturers including Chrysler, Porsche and the Volkswagen Group.Originally registered on 24th May 1989 this Volkswagen is painted white with a grey cloth interior and a black roof. Presenting in good all round condition this Golf Mk. I Cabriolet, has had work carried out within the last 12 months including the fitment of a new alternator, fuel pump and starter motor. The carburettor has been refurbished, a new cambelt has been fitted as has a new roof. This is a very tidy example that can be used and enjoyed immediately. These very stylish cabriolets offer retro looks, wind in your hair motoring and German reliability. Supplied with a V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until 21st April 2024.

Lot 138 - 1961 Daimler SP250 Dart ‘B’ Specification Transmission: manualMileage:88982The controversially styled Daimler Dart was introduced at the New York Motor Show in 1959 and had its European debut at the 1959 Earls Court Motor Show; the Dart name was soon dropped after the threat of legal action from Chrysler who had a car of that name within their Dodge division. Thereafter this new sports car was known as the Daimler SP250.   Power was provided by the 2.5 litre, Edward Turner designed, V8 that soon became revered for the smoothness in its power delivery with 140bhp on tap.   Independent double wishbone front suspension at the front and half elliptical springs at the rear with a live rear axle kept the car on the road with stopping power supplied by hydraulic disc brakes on all four corners.   The coachwork was constructed with glass reinforced plastic providing a tough, strong and lightweight shape that enhanced performance with exciting and non-traditional looks.   The 120mph plus capability was recognised by the police and they were soon being used as high-speed chase cars.  505 WPU is reported to have undergone restoration in the early 1990's with the body being stripped and repainted in Navy Blue, the interior tidied up and the engine rebuilt. Any other mechanical work required was also reportedly done at the same time. The supplied purchase receipt to the buyer Dr. Jacobs in September 1993, shows the beginning of much care lavished on the car by the Doctor under his ownership, clearly keen to maintain its restored condition. There are many receipts from Classic Automobile Repair Services of Wandsworth, London, under Dr. Jacobs ownership, detailing the care that was given to the car. Amongst these items was the inclusion of fitting a Kenlow fan to aid with engine temperature regulation in London traffic as well as other works such as carburettor rebuilds and steering strip and rebuild. The vendor reports the car to run and drive extremely well, attracting admiring looks wherever it goes.Supplied with the UK V5C registration document and history file. With a desirable low ownership, this rare, early 'B' specification SP250 offers great usability and looks to match.

1977 Morgan Plus 8 Transmission: manualMileage:66236The Morgan Plus 8 began production in 1968 and continued all the way through until 2004. The iconic Plus 8 returned in 2012 for a further six years, ending production again in 2018. Its iconic design remained largely unchanged throughout its life, lightweight construction, and powerful V8 engine. The Plus 8 is built on a steel chassis with a handcrafted aluminium body and Morgan's famous ash wooden frame. The Plus 8 is powered by the tried and tested 3.5 litre Rover V8 engine, which provides exhilarating acceleration, aided further by the immensely low weight of around 830kg. It also features a five-speed manual transmission.This particular example presents beautifully in dark green with a beige leather interior. The interior looks amazing, having been retrimmed in 2021 at the cost of £4,100 by an ex-Morgan employee, who completed the work exactly how it would have been done by Morgan themselves. The bodywork looks equally as impressive, it isn't freshly painted to concours standard, but it certainly doesn't require any attention. The car is supplied with full weather gear, including side screens, tonneau cover and hood.The engine is where the magic happens on this example, having been fitted with Viper fast road camshafts, Rhoades lifters, gas flowed heads, Hedman manifolds and four-barrel Holley carburettor. Our vendor reports this car is very fast and would make an excellent hill climb or sprint car, whilst remaining very useable on the road. The car was dyno tested at 284bhp, offering a strong improvement over the original engine. The car comes with a good amount of paperwork with a detailed handwritten record of works carried out between 2003 and 2011 and a strong amount of invoices detailing various works carried out over the years.Our vendor confesses he is a 'tinkerer' who enjoys having a project on the go, so is selling his beloved Morgan mainly to free up some space in his workshop. Having owed various classic cars over the years, he admits he enjoys restoring them but possibly doesn't give them the use they deserve. This is a fantastic example of the mighty V8 powered Morgan, which presents great value for money when compared with its rivals of the day.

1944 Willys MB Jeep Transmission: manualMileage:5700The Willys MB U.S. Army Jeep and the Ford GPW Jeep were manufactured from 1941 to 1945 and are considered the iconic World War II Jeep and inspired many similar light-utility vehicles. With America enduring difficult economic times, the U.S. Army instigated a program to modernise its fleet with a 'general purpose, personnel or cargo carrier' especially adaptable for reconnaissance or command and designated as a ¼-tonne, 4x4 truck. Ford Motor Company, American Bantam Car Company and Willys-Overland Motors all competed for the government contract and American Bantam were the initial winners of the bid. However, the U.S. government were keen on standardisation and Willys' production capacity eventually won them the contract. Towards the end of 1941, Willys' facilities could not keep up with demand, so Ford were contracted to produce the Jeep under licence in addition through to the end of World War II. From 1942 to 1945, Willys produced over 360,000 Jeeps and parts used on Willys' MB Jeeps and Ford GPW Jeeps are completely interchangeable mechanically.This WWII-period 1944 Willys Jeep is finished in US Army colours and holds a wonderful authentic patina. It was imported from France many moons ago and kept in dry storage before being recommissioned and registered (new style V5C present) in the UK in 2017. The odometer reads just 5,700kms which is believed to be correct. Fitted with Combat rims, folding canvas roof, windscreen cover, rear bustle rack and an array of WWII-style accessories. Recent works include a new alternator conversion, carburettor rebuild and temperature gauge service alongside an oil change. Also, the driver's seat has been extended to accommodate the larger driver, something that often stops those 6ft plus from enjoying these excellent Jeeps. Naturally, it qualifies as a Historic Vehicle so is MoT exempt and there's zero Road Tax to pay. It is declared to be in excellent running order by its enthusiast owner. This WWII Willys looks every bit the part for both those looking for authenticity or simply a fun summer run-around.

Recently arrived from France, this left-hand drive, US-spec, 308 GTSi has covered just 55,000km and looks very smart in Rosso Rubino.The Targa-topped GTS was first seen at the 1977 Frankfurt Motor Show and, in common with its GTB sibling, then had its carbureted engine replaced by one with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection in 1980, giving rise to the GTSi and GTBi models respectively. The mechanical fuel injection was coupled to a Marelli MED 803A Digiplex electronic ignition system, incorporating a coil, distributor and ignition module for each bank of cylinders and these modified engines produced 211bhp. The slightly disappointing reduction in performance was remedied by altering the final drive ratio to give similar acceleration to a carburettor car, with the whole car weighing just under 1,300KG. By now the use of GRP for the fixed roof bodies had been dropped and both variants were clothed in steel. Production of the GTSi version had totaled 1,743 cars by the time the model was replaced by the 308 Quattrovalvole in 1982.Recently arrived from France, this left-hand drive, originally US-spec, 308 GTSi has benefited from an inspection and service at Cecil Cars, who are reputed restorers near Paris. The odometer indicates c.55,000km and the car is finished in Rosso Rubino with a black leather interior which is believed to be original.Brought to the UK on a Temporary Admission, ready to be registered or exported. If the car is registered in the UK, import duty at 5% will be due on the hammer price plus buyer's premium.

Saleroom Notice - The car is a GTB not a GTBi as erroneously catalogued. The car's history file is still with the vendor and will be forwarded directly to the buyer after the sale. One of just 211 right-hand drive examples made and only 31,000 miles from new; extensive history, much originality and recently fully serviced ready for auction. With its stunning and shapely Pininfarina-designed body, styled by Leonardo Fioravanti, and mid-mounted 2,926cc quad-cam V8 fed originally by four Weber DCNF 40 carburettors, the Ferrari 308 has rightly become a significant collector's car. Pininfarina had already penned such eternal classics as the Daytona, Dino and Berlinetta Boxer. The 308 GTB was Ferrari's replacement for the immortal Dino 246 GT and made its debut at the 1975 Paris Salon 1975. The very earliest Ferrari 308s were built with fibreglass bodies, however, manufacturing quality issues meant that Ferrari quickly changed to steel in 1977. In 1980, the carburetted engine was replaced by a Bosch fuel-injected version for the sake of reduced emissions, however the change left the revised unit short of power although the final drive was altered on these cars to give similar acceleration to a carburettor car. Made famous by the TV series ‘Magnum PI’, the 308 has matured into a collectors' favourite and when production stopped in 1988, it had become the most popular Ferrari ever.The car presented here is a UK-supplied/RHD 1981 Ferrari 308 GTBi, chassis number ‘30685’, one of just 211 right-hand drive examples built and has covered just 31,000 miles from new .In recent years this matching numbers car was owned by a prominent member of the Ferrari Owners Club, who knew a good 308 when he saw one; he was the custodian of one-of-the-best, lavishing much expenditure on it, having owned it, we understand, since 1989. It's accompanied by an extensive history file containing numerous invoices for servicing/maintenance over the years. Sadly, the last owner passed away and the car is now being sold by his close friend, on behalf of the family.This car has never required any major work due to its regular servicing, low mileage and garage storage. Rarely have these true classic 1980s V8 Ferraris lived such a pampered life in the hands of so few owners (just two previous keepers). Small but important details are ‘just right’ on this car, all indicative of dutiful ownership and it's in impressively original condition. Indeed, the car has just (April 2023) received a full service (including cam belts) by Ferrari specialists ‘Shiltech’ of Loughborough and is absolutely ‘ready-to-go’, a great introduction to V8 Ferrari ownership.This is a simply lovely genuine example of a Ferrari model that remains sought-after, with both a low mileage and owners, just as you’d hope to find. SpecificationMake: FERRARIModel: 308 GTBYear: 1981Chassis Number: 30685Registration Number: AFX 44ATransmission: ManualEngine Number: 30685 Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 31000 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: BlackClick here for more details and images

1968 BSA 500cc A50 Royal StarRegistration no. WGU 567FFrame no. A50 RB 2269Engine no. A50 RB 2269Following Triumph's lead, BSA turned to unitary construction for its range of twins as the 1960s dawned, launching the all-new 500cc A50 and 650cc A65 'Star' models in January 1962. When the range was revised for 1965, the touring twins were renamed 'Royal Star' (A50) and 'Thunderbolt' (A65) respectively. Although a little less powerful than the A65, the A50 was lighter in weight and smoother running than its bigger brother, to which, engine capacity excepted, it was otherwise identical. This UK model is finished in Lime Green as an attractive nod to its A7SS Shooting Star predecessor. The vendor advises us that this motorcycle was totally restored in 2015 in every respect mechanically and cosmetically, with all components refurbished or replaced. Close inspection will verify that every nut and bolt is not only new but also the right size, shape and thread. New components fitted include the chains, sprockets, controls, cables, internals, exhausts, Amal Concentric carburettor, and Smiths speedometer with under two miles on the odometer. The engine has standard-size big-ends, timing-side bush and plus 0.020' pistons. Stored in the owner's dehumidified private museum, this stunning BSA A50 represents a rare opportunity to own a rare and beautiful British classic. Accompanying documentation includes an old-style logbook; BSA OC dating certificate; a V5C Registration Certificate; and current MoT.

1981 Honda CB900FBRegistration no. FNP 41WFrame no. JH2SC0101BM004267Engine no. SC01E-2210928Having blazed the multi-cylinder trail in 1968 with the trend-setting CB750, Honda found itself upstaged by Kawasaki's Z1, which was not only larger at 903cc but boasted two overhead camshafts to the Honda's one. Honda's riposte, the CB900F, did not arrive until 1979, by which time Kawasaki had moved on to the Z1000. However, the CB900's twin-cam cylinder head boasted sixteen valves compared to the Kwacker's eight, enabling it to produce 95bhp against the Big K's 93 and deliver an almost identical straight-line performance combined with superior handling. This CB900FB is beautifully presented and in excellent condition for its age. It is believed that the Honda was imported and first registered in 1994. The last owner purchased the machine in 2019 and commenced a sympathetic restoration to original condition. Work included professional blasting and powder coating of cycle parts; re-chroming of fork stanchions; and refurbishing brakes. The bike also features an original Honda exhaust system; new ignition coils and relay; and an LED headlamp bulb. The vendor believes the accompanying partial MoT history shows that the bike has a lifetime mileage of under 41,000 miles (current odometer reading 6,332 miles). The Honda is in running condition - all electrics work and all gears engage - but would benefit from a carburettor clean and tune-up. Last run in March 2023, the machine is offered with sundry bills, some MoTs, and a V5C document. Keys present.Footnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

A spectacular launch stunt saw three Thunderbirds lap the Montlhery circuit at over 90mph for 500 miles, after which they each achieved a flying lap of 100mph-plus and were ridden back to the Meriden factory. When displayed at the Earls Court Show in October, the new twin featured the headlamp nacelle and fuel tank with luggage grid first seen the previous year. An interesting change to the Thunderbird for 1952 was the adoption of an SU carburettor in place of the original Amal, a specially prepared machine managing a staggering 155mpg at a steady 30mph on a factory organised economy run. Little is known of this Thunderbird's history, other than that it has been checked by the vendor mechanically but left cosmetically untouched. Interestingly, the original RF60 logbook records a change of frame, or at least the frame number, 17 days after first registration. Both the frame and engine number stamps appear genuine, their non-conformity possibly being due to a factory error. It should also be noted that the registration 'VJW 123' does not appear on the HPI/DVLA database having presumably lapsed, accordingly prospective bidders must satisfy themselves as to the validity of the VRN prior to bidding. Recommissioning advised.Offered with keyFootnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1961 Aermacchi Harley Davidson 250cc Ala d'Oro Racing MotorcycleFrame no. 220029Engine no. 223622•Successful overhead-valve racing single•Raced regularly•Engine rebuilt five years ago•Electronic ignitionAermacchi is a household name among motorcyclists thanks to its heroic achievement of producing the most highly developed and successful overhead-valve racing single ever: the Ala d'Oro (Golden Wing). Although the pushrod Aermacchi never won a World Championship race, it did achieve a number of 2nd places, Alan Barnett's in the 1970 Junior TT being one of the most memorable. Despite a lack of ultimate success in Grands Prix, the Aermacchi single was outstandingly successful at national level and today, having benefited from another five decades of development, remains a competitive force in Historic motorcycle racing. The vendor purchased this five-speed Ala d'Oro at one of Brooks' Stafford sales in 1999, since when it has been raced regularly, the last occasion being at Cadwell Park in September 2022. The Aermacchi has mostly competed on the Continent, winning at Hockenheim in 2006, the Nürburgring in 2007, and the German Grand Prix at Schotten in 2016 and 2018.. Five years ago the engine was rebuilt with new bearings, piston, etc and fitted with an Ala Verde 350 type carburettor. The ignition system is electronic. The machine comes with instruction manuals and a set of linkages for converting the gear change from right- to left-side operation.Footnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Property of a deceased's estate2006 Triumph 865cc Bonneville T100Registration no. T90 RATFrame no. SMTTJ9152G6257846Engine no. 2258902 (see text)Ever since the re-emergence of a newly revitalised Triumph in 1990, enthusiasts had been eagerly waiting the revival of the Bonneville brand, one of the most evocative names in motorcycling history. Ten years would elapse before Triumph felt ready to do so, having by then emphatically established its credentials as a builder of thoroughly modern motorcycles rivalling the best from Japan and Europe. Triumph's design brief for the new Bonneville was to emulate the classic style of the late 1960s version while incorporating the best of modern technology in the engine, transmission and running gear. The new Bonneville debuted to critical acclaim at Munich in 2001 and before long the concept had been expanded to include cruiser-style Bonneville America, super-sports Thruxton and various other models such as the T100. Carrying a tax disc that expired in 2013, this T100 will require re-commissioning to a greater or lesser extent following a period of inactivity and thus is sold strictly as viewed. The vendor advises us that a new battery has been fitted and that the engine turns over but will not fire (a carburettor issue is suspected). It should be noted that no silencers are fitted. Documents include a current V5C and DVLA V11. It should be noted the V5C records the engine number as '258902'.Offered with keyFootnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
