An 18th Century Walnut Longcase Clock, by Edward Adams, London, the 11ins square brass dial with wide silvered chapter ring, with Roman and Arabic numerals, subsidiary seconds dial and date aperture, with matted centre and cast spandrels, to the eight day two train movement striking on a bell, contained in case with moulded cornice with blind fret carved frieze, and split turned columns to hood, plain trunk door and on plinth base, 76.5ins highExternally - the clock presents in good condition showing wear commensurate with age and usage. There are numerous marks to the cabinet, there are cracks to the veneer and the base at some stage may have been replaced potentially but this is historic rather than recent. The veneer has the odd mark and chip and some of the moulding needs attention in places. There is apiece of moulding missing to the top of the main body, the hood has numerous chips, cracks and marks, the fretwork is in good order. The pillars are in good order and appear original. There is a small part to the top left hand cornice on the hood which is missing. All of this is obvious in the images. Prospective bidders are advised to study all images carefully prior to bidding as these images form part of the condition report. The backboard appears to have had some restoration over the years. There is a piece added to the top on the right hand side, there are numerous countersunk screw holes throughout the backboard in general - please refer to images. The cheeks appear to be original, they don't appear to have been extended or altered. The door bears the original hinges, they have a little play but that is historic. The hinge screws look to be later replacements but again this is historic. The door has damage to the moulding but closes snugly, the lock functions correctly. The weights and pendulum are present and appear original. There are some smaller pieces of timber and moulding that accompany the clock. The winding crank is also present. The backboard appears to be original but has had some attention over the years this is evident in the photographs. The mechanism appears to be complete and original however we cannot warrant the originality of all components. The bell is present. The dial's silvering is worn in many places but this is part of the patination in our opinion. Hands appear original. The clock winds, runs and sets but should be regarded as untested. Prospective bidders are strongly advised to study all images carefully prior to bidding as these form part of the condition report

Registration No: BF 9262 Chassis No: A1361917 MOT: ExemptCompletely bespoke-built specialRoad legal, VSCC eligible and supplied with a V5C Registration DocumentHand-finished aluminium body in true late 1920s style with timber framed boat tail rearComprehensively mechanically overhauled, including a recent engine refreshAmid rumours that several US States were preparing to ban his Model T due to its 'unsafe' hand-operated braking system, Henry Ford begrudgingly succumbed to pressure and authorised the development of a successor. Introduced in December 1927, the Model A was greeted with unprecedented demand. Longer and lower-slung than the Model T, it retained transverse-leaf suspension but proved significantly more refined. Designed by Howard Hicks, its 3285cc, L-Head four-cylinder engine developed 40bhp (twice the Model T's output) boasting niceties like coil ignition and integral water pump. Mated to a three-speed manual gearbox, it gave a top speed of 65mph, necessitating the fitment of four-wheel braking.Built by leading marque expert, Toby Ballard of The Ford Model A Revival Company, Kent, in 2020, before first UK registration that year, this special has been comprehensively mechanically overhauled, including a recent engine refresh that included a new crank and re-grind with 'plus 20s' bored out to 3500cc, twin carbs and a Brierley cylinder head, making for very lively performance with an excellent soundtrack! At the front end, the bodywork is all bare hand-rolled aluminium and the rear is timber-framed with a boat-style 'wood tail', really suiting this unique special. For the cockpit, a hand-crafted bespoke Red leather interior adds to the Vintage impact of the special, with its custom dash turned-aluminium finish. In terms of practicality, a custom-made tonneau cover stows away when not required behind the seats, there are working headlights, side lights and brake lights. UK registered, tax and MOT exempt, it is eligible for many events in the UK and overseas, the special recently competed in 'Race the Waves' in Bridlington in 2023 and is still wearing its scrutineering stickers.

Registration No: NYP 807 Chassis No: B424TN MOT: ExemptBuilt by Bentley aficionado Paul Forty, being completed in c.2017Displayed at the NEC as the flagship car on Paul Forty's stand and purchased by the vendor directly from the NEC for some £190,000Beautifully crafted with Le Mans-style Tourer coachworkMinimal mileage since the completion of the restoration and still presenting excellentlyEntered from The Loch Lomond Collection, a collection made up of excellent examples of predominantly 1950s, '60s, and '70s classicsIt was in 1953 that ‘NYP 807’ made its debut, clothed in a Bentley R-Type Saloon body, chassis number B424TN was delivered to its first owner, a Mr John Moore Wilson on the 18th of September 1953. Almost seventy years later, in 2012, the tired remains of the Bentley were acquired by well-known Bentley aficionado and builder Paul Forty. Paul Forty, highly regarded in Bentley circles, is the son of Geoff Forty, an esteemed classic car dealer for many decades, trading as International Automobiles Limited. Not only this, but Geoff is understood to have had a contributing role in the founding of Bob Peterson Engineering, with Peterson Bentleys now some of the most exclusive, high-quality, and expensive Bentley specials available on the market. Therefore, there are probably not many more qualified than the Forty family in Bentley special building!Under the custodianship of Paul Forty, chassis B424TN was stripped to the bare chassis, with the chassis sandblasted and restored with new bushes and kingpins. The rear axle was stripped and overhauled with all new bearings before the front springs were renewed, and a new rear shock absorbers system for the rear. The engine was stripped and sent to an engine specialist in Exeter for a full engine overhaul including the crank reground, new bearings, re-faced cylinder head, all valve seats recut or replaced as needed, crank damper completely renovated, and the engine’s recently fitted new piston and liners on inspection were as new. The Bentley then received a full gearbox refresh, flywheel refaced, new steering bushes, and track rod pins, with extensive further mechanical improvement.The braking system was fully renewed, with a complete re-wire provided with all new units except the starter motor which was inspected and found good. The fuel system was fully restored from the tank to the carburettors, with the carburettors completely overhauled, including chemical cleaning and conversion to manual choke. Thereafter, a brand new aluminium body was installed in the style of the now iconic Vanden Plas Le Mans Tourers. I think it is fair to say that the coachwork is stunningly presented and detailed, with features such as the large alloy fuel tank with brass tap bosses, stone guards, polished stainless steel over centre filler cap, fold-down windscreen, nickel plated aero screens, diver's helmet rear lights, and Lucas P100 headlamps all setting the car off splendidly. It is much the same story when it comes to the fully renewed interior, trimmed to an excellent standard, the seats and side panels (with embossed ‘B’s) are trimmed in English hide, with a double duck hood and tonneau cover!The end product is an extremely handsome Bentley which perfectly combines the best of the Vintage Bentley Le Mans coachwork with more modern Bentley mechanicals. Utilising the R-Type 4.5-litre engine, four-speed synchromesh gearbox, and a set of 21-inch wheels, the vendor says it is fast, powerful, and very capable of running in modern traffic. Purchased into The Loch Lomond Collection directly from Paul Forty for £190,000 in 2017; The Loch Lomond Collection is made up of excellent examples of predominantly 1950s, '60s, and '70s classics. Used sparingly since the build, the Bentley has only completed local excursions around Scotland while in the collection, and therefore a degree of recommissioning might be required before pressing into road use. An exceptionally high-quality build from a well-known Bentley aficionado, this one surely ticks the boxes for those in the market for a Petersen or similar special!

Registration No: DXI 491 Chassis No: 10867S100908 MOT: ExemptExhaustive two-year professional restoration completed shortly after importationPurchased by the vendor from marque specialists Corvette KingdomInvoices on file for some £86,000 worth of expenditure since arrival in the United KingdomSensibly uprated with a brake servo and rack and pinion steering for enhanced driveabilityWorthy of close inspection!Now in its eighth generation, the 'Vette began life in 1953 with the C1 - a model that captivated a generation of American youngsters. It was the work of the legendary Harley Earl and inspired by the great European road/race offerings of the day. It borrowed its name - of French origin - from centuries of small, fast warships. The newcomer was first seen in concept form at the New York Auto Show, and generated sufficient interest for General Motors to hand-build a batch of 300 Polo White Convertibles. Sales, slow at first, had built to no less than 14,000 per annum by the introduction of the C2 10 years later. The C1 received multiple cosmetic updates along the way, the most significant of which came in 1958 when the nose was lengthened and dual headlights were introduced. The model was initially only available with a straight-six powerplant but soon progressed to V8 power units of varying horsepower with various transmission options.Manufactured in 1961, the Corvette C1 offered was supplied new to the Chevrolet's native United States of America, residing there until imported to the United Kingdom in 2008 from the state of Michigan. Provided to Tim Lang Restoration Centre, the Corvette was thereafter provided with an extensive restoration over the subsequent twelve months. The body-off restoration comprised a full chassis refresh and repaint; hundreds of hours of attention to the bodywork and paintwork; an overhauled engine with re-bored block, reground crank, new pistons and rings, main bearings, oil pump, and much more; quick shift gearbox overhaul; new brakes throughout; full suspension overhaul; new body fittings; new hood; fully re-trimmed interior; wheels refreshed; and exhaustive new parts. Provided its first MOT in 2010 at 83,154 recorded miles, the Corvette has now covered very minimal mileage since the completion of the restoration.In 2013, the continued exceptional maintenance of the Corvette meant the car was entrusted to marque specialists Corvette Kingdom for further extensive improvements. The engine was again removed and detailed, and fitted with a new Edelbrock Performer intake manifold and Holley 600 carburettor, new HEI distributor, new aluminium radiator with auxiliary cooling fan, built-in transmission cooler, and a dual Magnaflow exhaust system installed, with the engine bay also resprayed and detailed. The TH350 transmission was removed, re-sealed, and reinstalled with a new three-speed shifter. A front disc brake conversion was supplied, along with a dual circuit master cylinder, and the rear axle was fitted with new wheel bearings. The brakes were again overhauled, with the wheels sandblasted and repainted and fitted with new whitewall tyres.Acquired by the vendor in 2018 from Corvette Kingdom, the Chevrolet has been an attendee of local shows during his ownership, again covering very minimal mileage. Enhanced with uprated steering through a rack and pinion steering column fitment from Corvette Kingdom in 2020 to the cost of some £3,600, the C1 has further benefited from new front exhaust pipes (2021, Corvette Kingdom £1,270) and a new ignition switch. Worthy of close inspection, the vendor rates the Corvette as excellent throughout (regarding engine, gearbox, bodywork, paintwork, electrical equipment, and interior trim). The Corvette started readily and ran well during our recent photography session.Offered for auction with a history file which includes extensive invoices on file that add up to a massive £86,000 of expenditure on the Corvette since its arrival in the United Kingdom, including £26,000 on the works completed by Corvette Kingdom and £23,500 with Tim Lang Restoration Centre. Also included in the history file is a photograph album from the restoration with Tim Lang, import documentation, previous MOT certificates, Michigan State Title, and a current V5C document. Such well presented examples of early Corvettes are a rare find on British shores, so this example with exhaustive improvements and maintenance is surely one to consider for anyone in the market for a C1 Corvette.

Registration No: 632 YUP Chassis No: BN1L158357 MOT: ExemptComprehensively restored and uprated to 'M'-specification to the cost of some £77,000Purchased into the collection in 2018 for some £63,000Offered with a large history file including over 200 photographs of the restorationEntered from The Loch Lomond Collection, made up of excellent examples of predominantly 1950s, '60s, and '70s classicsDonald Healey’s prototype two-seater sports car displayed at the 1952 London Motor Show was based on Austin A90 Atlantic mechanicals with a sleek body designed by Gerry Coker and built by Tickford. Dubbed the 'Healey Hundred' (chosen to reflect the car's ability to reach the magic 100mph), there was a suitably encouraging response and Healey planned to produce it in-house at his Warwick factory. As things transpired, not only did the Ice Blue prototype impress the public, but also Austin's Managing Director, Leonard Lord, who struck a deal to build the car in volume at Longbridge. The early examples (code-named BN1s) were equipped with the same 90bhp 2660cc engines and manual four-speed transmissions as the A90, although Austin modified the gearbox to operate as a three-speed unit with overdrive on the top two ratios. A 1953 BN1 tested by Motor magazine hit 106mph and achieved 0-60mph in 11.2 seconds. A total of 10,688 BN1s are believed to have been produced between 1953 and 1955 (the vast majority of which went overseas).Chassis BN1-L/158357 was built on the 29th of June 1954 and was made to export specification in left-hand drive, being distributed new to the Austin Motor Company of North America for supply to the United States of America. Finished from the factory in Spruce Green paintwork, the 100/4 was specified with the factory-fitted equipment of wire wheels, twelve-volt electrics, SU H4 carburettors, and 590 x 15 tyres. Residing in America until 2012, the Healey was thereafter repatriated to the United Kingdom from the State of California by the first British keeper, seemingly complete but requiring restoration. Lavished with an extensive restoration subsequently by that owner, the Austin-Healey was provided with a total expenditure throughout the restoration of approximately £77,000, with significant numbers of invoices on file for the works completed.Stripped down to a bare shell with panels replaced as necessary and a complete repaint provided by specialists Bexon Auto Classics. The engine was fully overhauled by marque expert Richard Parker of Denis Welch fame with very close tolerances and all the components were balanced, the flywheel lightened, the crank enhanced for a rear oil seal, and utilising of an alloy cylinder head, alloy sum, Le Mans pistons, a Vernier cam sprocket and flexy oil pick-up pipe. The engine also received 123 electronic ignition, an alternator, a re-cored radiator, a retro-fitted Kenlowe fan, and new high-power starter motor, with the gearbox also reconditioned and a new overdrive also fitted.Disc brakes are fitted on the front, and a brand new Healey 3000 steering box is supplied to improve handling. The remainder of the mechanical restoration was completed by Healey aficionado Gerald Stevenson, with the car completed and returned to the road in 2017. Very shortly afterwards (in 2018) purchased into The Loch Lomond Collection for some £63,000; the collection is made up of excellent examples of predominantly 1950s, 60s, and 70s classics. Completing the Scottish Malts Rally while in the vendor's collection, the Healey has seen minimal other mileage while in the collection and still displays just 1,500 post-restoration miles on the odometer and therefore, a degree of recommissioning might be required before pressing into road use therefore.Offered with a large history file which includes the BMIHT Heritage Certificate, the aforementioned extensive invoices, previous MOTs, shipping documents, a current V5C document and over 200 photographs documenting the exhaustive restoration, it is further accompanied by a Black soft-top, side screens, tonneau cover, spare wheel, and toolkit. Healey 100s to 'M' specification are highly desirable examples of the iconic ‘Big Healey’ and with this example having covered minimal mileage since the complete restoration, it is surely one to consider for anyone in the market for a Healey!

Registration No: UJ 4729 Chassis No: 215669 MOT: ExemptPhoto-documented restoration completed in 2022Reputedly one of only 600-700 builtOffered with a history file which includes a collection of MOTs and invoicesUprated with electronic ignition, electric water pump and a twin carburettor equipped racing cylinder headSome 103 years on from its introduction, the Austin Seven's popularity shows little sign of waning. Cheap to buy, easy to tune and hard to break (relatively speaking), the Seven utilised a lightweight A-frame chassis equipped with an all-round leaf-sprung suspension (semi-elliptic front / quarter-elliptic rear), four-wheel drum brakes and a spiral bevel back axle. Powered by a 747cc four-cylinder engine allied to three-speed (later four-speed) manual transmission, it was capable of some 50mph in standard tune but nearly two-and-a-half times that figure in Works supercharged single-seater guise! Indeed, it was enthusiasm for Herbert Austin's 'baby' that led to the foundation of the 750 Motor Club in 1939; an organisation which for many years seemed entirely focused on making decrepit Sevens into improbably fast racers or road cars. Introduced in January 1958, the Hamblin Cadet was among the better known kits for transforming an Austin Seven into a two-seater sports car. Designed by crash repairer turned special builder Syd Hamblin, it was sold by the likes of Super Accessories, Boult Bros., Halifax Panel Beating Co. and Speedex. Priced at just £34 10s 0d (in self-build guise) but looking not unlike a formula racer thanks to its oval grille, cigar profile and bulbous tail, the fibreglass Cadet reputedly accounted for some 600-700 sales.This Austin Seven-based Hamblin Cadet has benefitted from much work. A photo-documented restoration was completed in 2022 and offered a timely opportunity to upgrade components for both reliability and performance. An overhauled engine, described as 'costing thousands', was utilised and built-up with a twin carburettor-equipped racing cylinder head, lightened flywheel, racing pistons, large inlet valves and a new crank. In turn, the ancillaries were uprated with electronic ignition and an electric water pump. Riding on uprated suspension, including new rear shock absorbers new large capacity aluminium tank and a re-wire before the bodywork was repainted. This enticingly sorted and handsome Special is being offered with a current V5C Registration Document and a history file which includes a collection of MOTs and invoices, some of which date back to 1989.

**SALEROOM NOTICE - Please note mileage is now 18,953 and the vendor has recently purchased a two-year transferrable Ferrari warranty.**Beautifully presented UK-supplied 488 Spider from Ferrari's Tailor-Made programme with less than 17,000 miles from new. The 488 GTB was a bit of a departure for Ferrari, not only because the 458 Italia and Speciale had been so successful, but because it marked a change of philosophy for the company’s mid-engined supercar. Gone was the naturally aspirated 4.5-litre V8 and in its place was a smaller, direct-injection 3,902cc twin-turbocharged, flat-plane-crank V8. It was more efficient and significantly more powerful and has now become regarded as an automotive masterpiece. What the turbocharged engine lacks in character compared with the outgoing V8, it makes up for with outrageous performance and such drivability that no matter what gear you are in or how slowly you are driving, all 661bhp and 560lb/ft of torque are instantly available. The chassis is sublime, melding unexpected levels of comfort with unflappable control and crystal-clear communication as the pace quickens and you start to build up to exploiting the remarkable performance on offer.It was only natural, given the success of the 488 GTB Berlinetta, that Ferrari would introduce an open-top model. It utilised the same drivetrain, engine and electronics as the GTB, differing only in the modified bodywork and engineering required to accommodate the folding hardtop. Thanks to careful design, the Spider weighed only 110lbs more than its hardtop sibling, a highly impressive feat for an open car and matched the GTB’s 0-60mph in three seconds, although the top speed was slightly slower at 202mph, hardly a deal breaker.Ferrari Tailor-Made is the exclusive Ferrari programme for those customers who want to customise each element of their car for a perfect fit, creating an unmistakable, one of a kind vehicle which reflects their personality and tastes.This beautiful 488 Spider dates from 2017 and is an original UK-supplied car fitted with the 3.9-litre, twin-turbo V8 mated to the state of the art, 7-speed, F1 semi-automatic transmission. In addition to the very high specification that is standard on a 488 Spider, here are the Tailor-Made options on this particular car:Rosso TRS 64181105 paintSpecial livery in glossy Nero (DS1250 229511) with inner edge in glossy Argento Nürburgring (266697)External mirrors with livery in glossy Nero ( DS1250) and glossy Argento NürburgringRear diffuser in Matte Nero (DS1250) with horizontal flaps in glossy Rosso TRSNarrow Italian flag painted on side air-splittersSeat belt cover, lower part of rear shelf, centre console panels and cup-holders in Crema leatherInserts in Rosso Ferrari leather on seat sides, door armrest and lower part of dashboardInner door handles in glossy Rosso TRSInternal part of air vents in glossy Rosso TRSF1-paddles in glossy Rosso TRSButton surrounds on F1 console in glossy Rosso TRSSpeaker grilles in same colour as leatherAll internal plastic parts in same colour as leatherRed additional carpet mats with Crema leather edgeCrema leather side inserts and '488 Spider' logo embroidered in Rosso 0504 threadDedication plate with Tailor-Made logo and tricolour stripeSill kick with Tailor-Made logo and tricolour stripeSTC2 tone-on-tone stitching as follows: 4,000 thread on the black parts, in Rosso 0504 on the red parts and in beige Chiaro 1209 thread on the Crema partsSeats with racing style centre recess panels with contrasting central stripe in Rosso Ferrari leatherThe current indicated mileage is 16,624 and the car has been serviced exclusively by Ferrari agents, with the most recent in 2024, all detailed in the service records and related invoices.

A superb Defender which has been restored, personalised, updated, upgraded and strikingly presented in Lamborghini Blu Caelum. Land Rover's venerable Defender series debuted in 1983, taking over from the tried and trusted 'Series' Landies so beloved by generations of farmers, soldiers, explorers and adventurers. A design icon that’s as globally recognised as a London black cab or double-decker bus, the Defender took the all-wheel drive, go-anywhere, do-anything Land Rover into a new era, introducing improved road manners thanks to its all-coil spring suspension and permanent all-wheel drive with its lockable centre differential – both adopted from the Range Rover.Given a production volume of more than 2,000,000 units from the early 'Series' models to the very last Defender, their distinctive shape remains a very common sight globally. Adaptable, supremely competent in any conditions, the Defender brought the Land Rover right up to date, while losing none of its rugged appeal.This stunning Land Rover is no ordinary Defender. Originally registered on 2nd April 1985, it was recently restored to an extraordinarily high standard by Greg Morris of Auto Audio Installations as his personal vehicle. Greg runs a high-end audio business and much of the work was supplemented by marque specialists, Vitesse Engineering.This 'no expense spared' RestoMod features a John Eales 3.9-litre fuel-injected V8, producing a very healthy 220bhp. This is mated to an upgraded 5-speed gearbox by Ashcroft Engineering, driving through a rebuilt transfer 'box to Ashcroft-rebuilt front and rear axles.This sensational Land Rover’s spec is almost too extensive to list but key features include:Bilstein dual-mode electronic suspension for superb fast road and off-road capabilityUpgraded braking with vented, slotted discs all roundA custom-made stainless steel ARO sports exhaust which makes this Defender sound as good as it goes (see video below)Bowler 18” lightweight alloy wheels, shod with BF Goodrich all-terrain tyresBowler lightweight front rally bumper and steering guardBowler rear steps and side rails have also been fitted, along with a Bowler gear-shifter kitA Momo classic leather steering wheel controls the all-important power steeringThe interior is bespoke, with custom-made leather trim, heated front seats with Exmoor trim and four inward-facing seats in the rearA heated front ‘screen, remote central-locking and electric windows are among the refinements added to the vehicle, for ease of everyday useBattery cut-off switch and trickle charge attachment fitted. Registered with Meta Trak (subject to subscription)Under its current ownership, a tow bar has been added, along with an electrics kit, Fire And Ice side steps, mud flaps and a pillar grab handle.A Pioneer TS-WX140DA sub-woofer has also been added, to complement the Pioneer SPH-EVO93DAB multi-media screen/system and Morel Virtus Nano Carbon integrated sound system. The media system allows the use of Carplay, Google Maps etc, as well as featuring a reversing camera.The transfer ‘box ratio was recently changed from 1.4 to 1.2 for better road use and in October 2024, the vendor renewed the crank pulley, all the belts, plus oil and filters.This outstanding Land Rover is even more eye-catching thanks to the choice of Lamborghini Blu Caelum paint paired with the cream interior. The current MOT is valid until April 2025.This Defender 90 Soft Top stands out from the crowd in every way, emanating quality. The upgraded components and standard of workmanship involved are absolutely first class and this RestoMod is sure to put a smile on the face of its new lucky owner.Specification Make: LAND ROVER Model: DEFENDER 90 RESTOMOD Year: 1985 Chassis Number: SALLDVAC7AA232928 Registration Number: B757 XKL Transmission: Manual Engine Number: JED3921004 Drive Side: Right-hand Drive Odometer Reading: 1869 Miles Make: RHDClick here for more details and images

German WW1 'crank handled' trench knife bayonet with Gesetzlich Geschutzt to one side of the ricasso and Demag Duisburg to the other, 15cm double edged blade (tip missing) and scabbard with integral leather belt loop. PLEASE NOTE: WE ARE NOT ABLE TO OFFER OUR USUAL POSTAGE SERVICE FOR THIS LOT
A WW1 ‘crank handle’ German Demag bayonet - believed to be a fairly good, aged reproduction of this very rare bayonet. Featuring a double edged blade, of flattened diamond form. Marked ‘Gesetzlich Geschutzt’ to one side of the ricasso, and the round ‘DEMAG DUISBURG’ trademark to the other side (with small stars separating the words). The spine lacks the proof mark seen on originals. Shaped handle with 4 rivets, each of which lacks the peened look seen on genuine Demags. The pommel area has the correct button release catch, and morticed groove for attaching to a bayonet. The metal scabbard has the integral leather belt loop with press stud fastening, with the stud lacking the usual ‘snowflake’ pattern to the top. Overall aged and patinated finish, with some light surface corrosion in places. Length in scabbard approximately 28cm, blade length 15.4cm. Condition: generally good. No damage, but perhaps an artificially aged finish.
