Registration No: FHL 616L Chassis No: HS30011712 MOT: Exempt • An original RHD example and UK registered in 1972 • Subject to an extensive bodywork restoration and repaint in current ownership • Offered with a collection of invoices and old MOT certificates • In need of recommissioning after a period of storage • Understood to be 1 of just 1,929 240Z's sold new to Great Britain The launch timing of the Datsun 240Z (sold as the Nissan Fairlady Z in Japan) was impeccable. The much-loved Austin-Healey 3000 had recently passed to that big garage in the sky and enthusiasts were clamouring for a spiritual replacement. On paper, the first of the Z cars was unremarkable, but the sum of its parts was good enough to achieve major success on track and stage (examples won the East African Safari Rally outright in 1971 and 1973) and become a big seller - particularly in the USA, where it was very well priced compared with rival imports. It was powered by a lusty OHC straight-six engine of 2393cc that delivered 151bhp at 5600rpm. This allowed the newcomer to rush to 60mph in around eight seconds and achieve a very creditable top speed of some 125mph. A five-speed manual gearbox was standard and the suspension was independent by MacPherson struts at the front and Chapman struts at the rear. Braking was by discs front/drums rear and steering by rack and pinion. First registered on 6th October 1972, this is an original right-hand drive example of the 240Z and is understood to be 1 of just 1,929 240Z's sold new to Great Britain. In current ownership since June 2013, little is known prior to that however cosmetically, the 240Z has benefitted from bodywork restoration and re-paint between 2013 and 2017 with receipts on file for paint, sundries and bodywork repairs, including an £800 receipt for bodywork in 2017. December 2014 saw new door handles purchased. In October 2015, the engine bay and front running gear were cleaned and painted. Other cosmetic improvements include a Mota-Lita wood-rim steering wheel at a cost of £290, a March 2017 receipt for a set of stainless-steel Datsun 240Z bumpers at a cost of £875; new tail-lights were purchased in December 2014 and new turn signal lenses in July 2017; a 2019 Rota Shop purchase of alloy wheels at a cost of £560. Many trim parts had to be purchased from the USA and beyond and included seals, rubbers, clips, badges and trim. A new Pilkington Classics windscreen was ordered in March 2017 at a cost of £363.14. Mechanically, an alloy radiator was purchased for £210 in September 2016; brake parts were purchased in June 2017; 2019 saw a cylinder head repair by Barton Street Engineering, Stockport; undersealing and Waxoyling; new rear brake cylinders and brake discs purchased; Bob’s Auto Electrics were used to fault-find electrics and a new starter was also fitted in April 2020; heater hose, a battery and a brake servo (at a cost of £249.95) were purchased in 2021. In need of recommissioning after a period of storage, the 240Z is offered with a large collection of invoices and notes regarding the restoration work, along with old MOT certificates and a current V5c document.

Five: Commander J. O. Freeland, Royal Navy, who was wounded in action in Syria in 1840 Naval General Service 1793-1840, 2 clasps, Navarino, Syria (John O. Freeland, Lieut. R.N.); Baltic 1854-55, unnamed as issued; Crimea 1854-56, no clasp, unnamed as issued; St Jean D’Acre 1840, silver, unnamed, pierced with ring and fitted with additional bar suspension; Turkish Crimea, British issue, unnamed, pierced with ring and fitted with additional bar suspension, mounted for display, very fine and better (5) £2,400-£2,800 --- Importation Duty This lot is subject to importation duty of 5% on the hammer price unless exported outside the UK --- --- Provenance: Alan Hall Collection, June 2000. John Osmond Freeland entered the Royal Navy on 3 July 1825, and served his time as Volunteer and Midshipman on the Lisbon, Mediterranean, Home, North America and West India Stations, in the Albion 74, Captain John Acworth Ommanney; Victory 104, Captain Hon. George Elliot; and Rose 18, Captains Eaton Travers, John George Dewar, Arthur Wakefield and Edward Williams Pilkington. In the Albion he was present at the occupation of Lisbon by the British, and at the battle of Navarino in October 1827. Freeland, who passed his examination in seamanship on 28 September 1831, and with credit at the R.N. College on 9 October 1832, continued to serve in the Rose under Captain John Talbot Warren, as Mate, until August in the latter year, after which he was employed for nearly five years in the same capacity in the Mediterranean and on the coast of Portugal, on board the Endymion 50, Captain Samuel Roberts, Caledonia 120, flag ship of Sir Josias Rowley, Volcano, Commander William Mcllwaine, and Donegal 78, bearing the flag of Rear Admiral J .A. Ommanney, his former Captain in the Albion. On the occasion of the coronation of Her Majesty, Freeland was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant by commission on 28 June 1838. In the course of 1839 he served on the South American Station (on which passage he was made prize master of a slaver) in the Electra 18, Captains William Preston and E. R. P. Mainwaring, Fly 18, Captain Graveille Gower Loch, and Imogene 28, Captain Henry William Bruce. In 1840 he was present at the capture of Sidon and at the bombardment of St Jean D'Acre on board the Stromboli, Captain Woodford John Williams, and, whilst in temporary command of this frigate, he took despatches from Alexandria to the senior officer on the coast of Syria. In the attack upon St Jean D'Acre, Lieutenant Freeland received an injury from gunpowder in his left cheek, the result of which was a tumour, then a malignant ulcer, and some years afterwards, a painful operation which was needed to save his life. In April 1841 Freeland exchanged from the Stromboli into the flag ship of the Hon. Sir Robert Stopford. He removed immediately afterwards as First Lieutenant to the Beacon 8, Captain Thomas Graves, under whom he was employed for nearly four years in surveying the coast of Greece, the Grecian Archipelago, the shores of Asia Minor, and the Gulf of Smyrna. Twice during that period he had personal charge of the ship for several months, in the absence of his Captain on Admiralty leave and on detached service. He also had command of a party employed on shore in excavating the Xanthian Marbles, now in the British Museum. On leaving the Beacon in March 1845, Lieutenant Freeland received a letter of thanks for his general services from Captain Graves. His subsequent appointments were 10 May 1845, to the Coast Guard on the coast of Sussex; 11 January 1848, as Senior Lieutenant to the Ocean 80, flagship of Sir Edward Durnford King and Hon. George Elliot, at the Nore, where he served for three and a half years as First Lieutenant; 1 September 1852, to the command of the Mercury cutter (tender to the Dasher), for the protection of the Channel Island fisheries; 7 March 1854, again as First, to the Prince Regent 90, Captain Henry Smith, one of the Baltic fleet during the campaign of the same year, and in the following December in a similar capacity to the Exmouth 90, Captain Hon. Frederick Pelham, fitting at Devonport; and 7 February 185,5 to the command of the Oberon, of 3 guns and 200 hp. In the Oberon Lieutenant Freeland sailed for the Mediterranean and Black Sea where he rendered assistance in the ensuing April to the Weser gun vessel which had caught fire, struck a rock, and been beached near the Dardanelles. For his services in Prince Regent and Oberon Freeland received the Baltic and Crimean War Medals, the latter without clasp. He was advanced to Commander on 26 May 1856 and shortly afterwards was placed on the Reserved List. He died on 26 January 1875.

Herbert Lyon was born on 28 December 1856, at Woodley, Pilkington, Lancashire. He was the son of A. W. Lyon J.P., of Abbots Clownholme, Rochester, Stafford, and was educated at Windlesham House, Brighton, and the Reverend H. Burney's Royal Academy, Gosport. He entered the Royal Navy as a Cadet aboard the Training Ship Britannia, which he joined on 15 January 1870, at the age of 13. On passing out in December 1871 he gained six months’ sea time, and joined his first ship H.M.S. Sultan in December 1871, being promoted to Midshipman on 20 June 1872. He was appointed to Charybdis in October 1873 for service with the East Indies Squadron, and served aboard this ship for nearly three years, seeing action on shore with the Naval Brigade during the Lingi and Lukat River expeditions, the Straits of Malacca, and at Perak. For these services he received the Indian General Service medal with clasp 'Perak'. On returning to England, Lyon joined Topaz in June 1878, having been promoted to Sub Lieutenant on 20 June 1876. Next appointed to Excellent in September 1877 for College and examination, on passing out he was awarded a 2nd Class Certificate in Seamanship and 3rd Class Certificates in Gunnery and Navigation. In April 1878 Lyon joined Boadicea for service on the Cape of Good Hope Station and West Coast of Africa. Whilst in this ship he was landed in Zululand with the Naval Brigade, and served on shore from 19 March to 6 August, 1879. He was mentioned in Despatches by Commodore Sir Frederick Richards and recommended for promotion, having been in all of the operations leading to the relief of Ekowe and commanded a Gatling gun at Ginghilovo. For his services he was promoted to Acting Lieutenant on 21 January 1880 and appointed to Flora; he was later confirmed in this rank with seniority of 7 February 1880. In September 1880 he joined President for study and examination; on qualifying, he joined Garnet in July 1891. As a Lieutenant he served aboard Rifleman from November 1881; Himalaya from May 1883; Hercules from September 1884; Tourmaline from August 1886; Duke of Wellington from November 1889; and Impregnable from March 1890. He was promoted to Commander on 30 June 1894, and joined Vivid in September 1895. Lyon then served aboard Pelican from January 1898; Curacoa from February 1899; and Cleopatra from August 1900.

Whilst holding this post he was appointed an A.D.C. to King Edward VII on 5 November 1908. In 1907, during the King’s visit to Spain, Malta and cruise in the Mediterranean, Lyon was awarded various Spanish and Turkish decorations, ‘private’ permission to wear being confirmed in most cases in his record of service, and all confirmed in Who’s Who. On returning to England, Lyon was promoted to Rear-Admiral on 14 April 1910, and at his own request placed on the Retired List on 24 January 1913. On the outbreak of World War I he offered his services to the Admiralty in any capacity available. He was appointed a Captain R.N.R. on 16 November 1914, and given Command of the Yacht Safar El Bahr on 23 August 1915, for service in the Eastern Mediterranean. On 24 October 1915, he was promoted to Vice-Admiral, and in October 1916 he was appointed to Egmont for charge of all armed patrol vessels at Malta, as Commodore 2nd Class R.N.R, remaining in this post until the end of the war. He was brought to their Lordships favourable notice by Rear-Admiral Ballard for valuable services whilst in Command of escort vessels at Malta and was awarded the C.B. (Military) for services in charge of auxiliary patrols, Malta (London Gazette 15 July 1918). He was admitted to Bighi Hospital, Malta, in February 1919, and died there on 15 March 1919, from illness contracted while serving afloat. He is buried in Ta Braxia Cemetery, Malta.

Registration No: EGJ 124J Chassis No: P1R35884 MOT: ExemptSubject to an extensive restoration with in excess of £20,000 in parts alone1 of just 1,040 RHD home-market examplesInterior trimming in Black Leather plus headlining and panels from Aldridge TrimmingFitted with a high-torque starter, adjustable shock absorbers and upgraded handbrake linkageSubstantial history file and photographic record of the restorationTriumphantly unveiled at the 1961 Geneva Motor Show, the Jaguar E-Type created a furore thanks to its supercar performance, stunning looks and modest price tag. Early racing success at the hands of Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori amongst others helped cement the newcomer's reputation. Built as a monocoque with an engine-cradling front sub-frame, the E-Type's combination of all-round independent suspension and disc brakes allied to rack-and-pinion steering resulted in excellent road-holding and handling capabilities. Introduced in 1968, the Series II cars were distinguishable by their revised bumper and light arrangements. Less noticeable was the increased size of the front air intake that in conjunction with dual cooling fans made the Series II better behaved in hot weather and heavy traffic. With its 4235cc engine developing a quoted 265bhp and 283lbft of torque, it was reputedly capable of nearly 150mph and 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds. The range expanded with a 2+2 derivative joining the Coupe and Roadster and evolved through steady stages until the final Series 3 V12s bowed out in 1975.1 of just 1,040 RHD home-market examples built, this 1970 2+2, in Opalescent Silver Blue, has benefitted from a 'full' bare metal restoration. The odometer has been re-set post-restoration, so it now reads very few miles; prior to the restoration 'EGJ 124J' had covered some 98,000 miles. There was in excess of £20,000 in parts alone. The restoration included new wheels and tyres, interior trimming in Black Leather, headlining and panels from Aldridge Trimming and a double tinted windscreen, no longer available off the shelf or elsewhere, however, in this case it was custom-made by Pilkington. Some of the upgrades have included a high-torque starter, adjustable shock absorbers and an upgraded handbrake linkage. In the main, mechanical parts were sourced from SNG Barratt. There is a substantial history file with the car, pre and post-restoration, which includes a photographic record of the aforementioned restoration and a current V5c document is also included in the sale. A reluctant sale due to ill health. For more information, please contact: James McWilliam james.mcwilliam@handh.co.uk 07943 584760
