Welcome
Welcome to the 2019 Silverstone Classic! This is our ninth consecutive year as the
official auction partner for the classic motorsport festival and we are thrilled you have
joined us for it.
The catalogue for our two-day, flagship sale, is our very best yet. It features the biggest
variety and highest quality selection of cars that we have ever offered. There are 130
outstanding classic and competition cars, as well as a fantastic selection of 200
automobilia items, all for your consideration.
Over the course of the weekend we will be offering an unrepeatable selection of cars,
ranging from the 1959 Jaguar Mk1 which is likely one of the best of its kind that you
can buy (estimate £55,000 – £65,000), through to the beautiful, matching-numbers,
1954 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing (estimate £850,000 – £1,000,000).
We also have two collections as part of the line-up; our car sale on Saturday opens with
a four-car collection from the estate of the late Barrie ‘Whizzo’ Williams. The series
includes his famous Mini Cooper S 1071S, which was the first to win an international
rally.
‘The Property of a Gentlemen’ is a 17-car collection, all of which will be offered at No
Reserve. Each one has their own unique history, from the award-winning Citroen DS
Super 5 to the collectable Lancia Delta HF Integrale; this is an opportunity to purchase
a special car from a gentleman’s private collection.
Alzheimer’s Research UK is Silverstone Classic’s official charity partner for the next
three years. Our automobilia sale on Saturday will open with eight charity lots in aid of
this and all funds raised will go directly to Race Against Dementia Fellowships, which
was founded by racing legend, Sir Jackie Stewart.
Amongst the broad variety of automobilia lots is a very special item, an Art Edition
“Il Fascino Ferrari” from Taschen Books. Number 240 of 250, this stunning piece of
Ferrari history remains unopened in its original condition and will be offered during the
Saturday sale.
If you’re considering selling, we’re welcoming best-of-breed entries to our remaining
two sales of 2019; the Ferrari and Porsche sale which takes place in September and the
NEC Classic Motor Show at the NEC in November.
Finally, thank you for attending the sale and enjoy browsing this eclectic collection of
outstanding cars.
Happy bidding!

Managing Director, Silverstone Auctions

“IL FASCINO FERRARI” ART EDITION
Estimate: £28,000 - £32,000
+buyer’s premium of 24% including VAT @ 20%
Few are the men and brands that have come to define a century. For seven decades and counting, the
Italian powerhouse founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1947 has made an indelible red mark on popular culture and
enraptured fans and collectors across the globe.
Synonymous with beauty, excellence, and unmatched desirability, the Cavallino Rampante lives on as the
driving force in high-performance Gran Turismo, the conqueror of impossible challenges.
A project conceived in close collaboration with Ferrari, this massive tome is a veritable collector’s piece
from Taschen. A production unparalleled in scale, it features exclusive content from the Ferrari archives and
private collections around the world, bringing together hundreds of unseen photographs and documents to
reveal the unique story behind Ferrari’s victories, its protagonists and its legacy.
Limited to 1,947 signed and numbered copies, the handcrafted leather-bound and hand-stitched Collector’s
Edition is enclosed in a Ferrari engine-inspired case designed by Marc Newson. Born in Sydney, Australia,
Marc studied jewellery and sculpture at Sydney College of the Arts before moving to Tokyo. Now living and
working in Paris and London, Newson has become one of the world’s most accomplished and influential
designers. The case is made of cast aluminium, the chrome has been sandblasted with powder to preserve
the metal’s natural feel, whilst the top of the case has been finished using Ferrari’s own red heat-resistant
paint, the same as that used on their engines.
Even more special, the ‘Art Edition’ (No. 1-250) is elevated by a sculpture evocative of the 12-cylinder
engine in hand-bent, flared chromed steel, also by Marc Newson. The bookstand’s legs were joined together
using tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, a process that produces stronger, high-quality welds, typical in the
automotive industry. Each of the 250 ‘Art Editions’ is signed by Sergio Marchionne, John Elkann, and Piero
Ferrari and features:
-Unprecedented access to the Ferrari archives, and those of private collectors, including hundreds of unseen
photographs, drawings and sketches
-Original documents of famed Ferrari drivers
-Never-before-seen appendix gathering all of Ferrari’s victories since 1947
On offer here is ‘Art Edition’ number 240/250 and this stunning piece of Ferrari history is presented in
brand new condition, remaining in its crate having never been opened. White gloves will be available for any
serious potential purchasers to have a closer look.

late Barrie ‘Whizzo’ Williams, one of British Motorsports enduring characters.

By a happy coincidence, although the simple explanation
tells us that karting in the UK began on the US airbases, in
actuality the publicity given to this new motorsport activity in
American magazines such as Motor Trend, Rod & Custom,
Hot Rod and so on had already interested their UK readers
to the extent that between April and July of 1959 there were
already four kart “producers” - Ecurie Minima, Motor Karts,
Skeeta and Speedex - at work in Britain.
In addition, Peter Agg of Trojan, who imported Lambretta
scooters, had seen karts demonstrated when he visited the
Clinton factory in the States and also decided to give it a go.
After considerable pestering, in July Mickey Flynn received
permission from his Top Brass to hold a British race meeting
at the end of the year and in August, Silverstone car park
was the venue for a karting demonstration. Peter Agg
had imported a few Simplex karts from the US which he
renamed Trokart, though, strangely, Mickey Flynn was turned
away from this event with his five Go-Karts!
This Silverstone event prompted the RAC to hold a law-
making meeting in September 1959, at which the eloquent
Ben Browning of Villiers was present. This meant the logical
over-riding emphasis on non-gearbox karts was balanced
by a voice from the gearbox brigade and thus the class-
structure rules that resulted from that meeting treated the
two power transmission designs equally.
A further promotional event was held in Croydon in October,
where locals Trokart, Azum, Progress and others were joined
by Fastakart, a newcomer from Bromyard near Hereford.
The, somewhat simplistically, named ‘Fastakart’ was the
brainchild of Frank Williams, Barrie’s dad and proprietor of
Bromyard Engineering Ltd. in Rowberry Street in Bromyard
and whose father, Edmund Williams, had been involved with
cars and bikes for many years, owning Edmund Williams
Garage in the centre of Bromyard.
It’s not clear what prompted Frank’s interest in Karting but
he was certainly involved from the early days as can be seen
from some of the fascinating documents in the history file.
Son Barrie was equally enthusiastic and saw himself as
Number 1 driver from the start. The file contains a Track
Test for the Fastakart published in Karting Magazine on April
1st, 1960 which details the technical spec, a photo of the
cover of the inaugural 1961 RAC Karting Championships
programme featuring a Fastakart advert and two pages from
the 17th August 1960 Aintree Kart Meeting programme,
the cover and the entry listings. Barrie won his class that
day driving Fastakart/Villiers number 128 with dad driving
Fastakart/Villiers number 127.
1960 was an explosion of activity. There were usually
multiple meetings up and down the country every weekend
and as well as temporary circuits laid out with straw bales,
events were held on banked concrete cycle tracks, shale-
surfaced speedway tracks, grass-tracks and so on. Equally
explosive was the speed of technical development. Classes
I/II used American ideas and by the end of the year, the
now widely-accepted three or four-rail chassis layout had
made an early appearance. In Class IV the flexible tea-tray
Fastakart had proved consistently superior to the rigid car-
based spaceframe design common at that time.
Although the Fastakart/Villiers was a very competitive
machine and Barrie was enjoying a number of wins, his first
outing in a car race was at Rufforth in 1960 and, presumably
that turned his head, as it marked the start of nearly six
decades of racing and rallying.
Also in the history file are a photo of Frank Williams with
the Fastakart, a photo of Edmund Williams Garage (Barrie’s
grandfather) and details of a YouTube clip of Barrie’s
Fastakart at Race Retro in 2016. We understand that Barrie’s
kart is fitted with a Villiers 197cc gearbox engine and, in
period, according to RAC regulations, it would have been
eligible for ‘Class 4’ (Karts fitted with Motor Cycle gearbox
engines).

2007 Gilera Stalker Paddock
Bike
LOT202
According to ‘Maxiscoot’, when the Stalker was first
launched; “The intention of the Stalker couldn’t be more
clear, its typical, aggressive-looking 50cc with its raised
chassis leaves no room for doubt - it’s meant, designed and
built for fun. its chassis is well designed and makes handling
it really enjoyable right out of the box. But its real focus is on
the air-cooled Piaggio engine with really great performance
and will develop into a real beast when properly upgraded
and tuned. The Gilera Stalker equally caters to the everyday
rider who wants a street-legal, fun and fast machine, as well
as those who are looking for a reliable starting point for track
racing and competition”
You can see why Barrie loved this little bike and frequent
references were made to his long-established nickname and
his progress through a crowded paddock.

• A recently restored 1972 Series II Fulvia HF from the
estate of the late Barrie Williams
• Restored by a previous owner over 4 years with great
attention to period detail
• A lot of the work appears to have been carried out by
‘IN Racing’ in Nottingham
• Delightfully presented in Rosso (HF) with a black interior
and an excellent dashboard
• External brightwork is in very good condition as are the
silver wheels. The HF decals look period-correct
• The engine bay is almost ‘Concours’ standard with a
striking, blue and yellow gloss painted cam cover
• A lovely example of a much-revered model, from a man
who liked things to be ‘just right’
The Fulvia (Tipo 818) was a new, light, sporting car
introduced by Lancia at the Geneva Motor Show in 1963
and produced until 1976. Named after ‘Via Fulvia’, a Roman
road leading from Tortona to Torino, the Fulvia was available
in three variants: a Berlina 4-door saloon, a 2-door Coupé
and the Sport, a distinctive fastback Coupé designed and
built by Zagato, available as an alternative.
As well as being a delightful and rewarding road car in the
best Italian tradition, Fulvias are notable for their role in
motorsport history, including winning the International Rally
Championship in 1972. On testing one of the early cars in
1967, the American magazine Road & Track summed up
the Fulvia as “a precision motorcar, an engineering tour-de-
force”.
The second series Fulvia Sport was launched at the 1970
Turin Motor Show and changes included a 5-speed gearbox,
revised suspension geometry, taller ride height, an alternator
in place of the previous dynamo, a taller final drive
compared to earlier cars and wider tyres. The body was now
all-steel and seated a couple of (not very tall) passengers
behind the front seats. Several other minor changes set the
second series apart from the first: new driving lights, side
mirror moved from the wing to the door, larger bullet-shaped
tail lights from the Peugeot 204 and stamped steel wheels
without hubcaps.
Offered here we have a recently restored 1972 Series II
Fulvia HF from the estate of our recently departed friend,
Barrie Williams. The history file indicates that it was restored
by the previous owner over approximately four years as it
contains an invoice, dated 2013, from Nottingham-based
‘IN Racing’ (Ian Nuthall’s long-established classic sports car
restoration business) for interim work totalling £6,679 and
the HPI reports a colour change to Red from White in 2017.
There is a further invoice in the file from IN Racing in 2013
that details a gearbox strip and rebuild including bearings
and synchros. The Owner’s File contains correspondence
between previous owners, old MOTs, a letter from the Lancia
Motor Club confirming the date of manufacture as being
1972, various invoices and historic registration documents.
It’s difficult to imagine a more delightfully presented little
Italian seventies sports car. It sits square and true and its
diminutive proportions are in perfect balance. It’s finished
to an excellent standard in the correct Rosso (HF) with
a very smart black leather interior. The dashboard and
instrumentation appear excellent and the HF steering wheel
looks original. The odometer currently indicates 29,356
miles but this can’t be warranted. The external brightwork is
in good condition as are the silver wheels and the HF decals
look period-correct. The engine bay is remarkable, almost
‘Concours’ standard with a striking, gloss blue and yellow
painted cam cover. It wears a set of K&N filters on the twin
Webers and is fitted with a Facet fuel pump.
This is a lovely example of a much-revered model, owned
most recently by a man who could be a touch pedantic when
it came to detail, so you can be pretty sure it’s a good one!!!

legendary man
There can’t be many British motorsport enthusiasts who
are not familiar with the name and exuberant driving style
of the late Barrie Williams. Universally known throughout
the motorsport world as ‘Whizzo’, Barrie was one of the
most versatile competitors of the last 60 years. From an
early age, he wanted to be a racing driver and wrote from
his boarding school to David Brown, owner of Aston Martin
and Lagonda, asking to join the Aston racing team. Brown’s
reply was to suggest that Barrie became an engineering
apprentice with David Brown Tractors, based in Huddersfield
and subsequently, duly ensconced in West Yorkshire, Barrie
soon found himself making friends with a group of like-
minded enthusiasts, members of the Huddersfield Motor
Club. As was possible in the late 1950s, the same car could
be used for rallies, racing, autotests, hill climbs and sprints
and before long he was hill climbing an Austin A40 Devon “It
wasn’t competitive, but it made a lovely noise with a tractor
exhaust on”. It was soon replaced by a Downton-tuned
Morris 1000 (purchased from Peter Kaye, James Kaye’s
father) in which Barrie made his circuit debut at Rufforth in
1959.
In 1962, Barrie had to leave David Brown Tractors to return
home to manage the family business, Bromyard Engineering
when his father became ill (Barrie’s father was a works
rider for Sunbeam in the TT but perhaps is better known
in motorsport circles for founding ‘Fastakart’ and running
a very successful kart racing team). Barrie maintained his
involvement in all available types of motorsport, earning a
growing reputation in the West Country as a young driver
to watch but at this point, most of his success was in
club rallying in a Mini Cooper. The smooth reliable style of
Barrie’s later years was not always evident at this point in
his career and night rallies were occasionally punctuated by
botanical expeditions through the scenery usually without
a scratch. Ironically, it was a non-fault road accident that
put Barrie in hospital in 1963 and it was whilst lying there
that he heard about the newly introduced Mini Cooper ‘S’
(1071cc). Apparently there was a six-month waiting list
which seemed quite a way off so one was immediately
ordered, however, 120 MNP turned up three weeks later.
In Barrie’s words; “We had a few wins and I rashly put my
name down for a brand new Cooper S. When it arrived
I couldn’t pay for it, but I got it on HP and it was much
better than the Cooper because it had brakes. Some mates
said you ought to do an International. I said, don’t be silly,
we’re only club boys. Anyway, we ended up doing the Welsh
against the works teams. Our service crew were at a wedding
all day Saturday and turned up in the middle of the night
in darkest Wales to service us in tailcoats and top hats. It
was very wet, very foggy, very nasty and at the finish, we
got very drunk and then somebody said, you’ve won it. We’d
passed all the works teams in the fog and we’d won our first
International”. The Motoring News on Thursday 9 January
1964 proudly announced “Outsiders Win First International
Welsh Rally. This tough long weekender was made even
harder by prolonged bouts of both fog and ice but Williams,
accompanied by John Griffiths and behind the wheel of
his Mini Cooper S, finished just ahead of Roy Fidler, Phil
Simister, Reg McBride, Eric Jackson and John La Trobe. Not
bad for a driver on his first International”.
Meanwhile and also in January 1964, Paddy Hopkirk along
with Henry Liddon, became national heroes when they won
the 23rd running of the Rallye Monte-Carlo, beating a host
of V8 Ford Falcons on handicap in the process, however,
although the Mini Cooper ‘S’ won two International Rallies
within a couple of weeks and despite what you might have
believed up to now, history is quite clear that the accolade
for the first international victory by a Cooper ’S’ belongs to
Barrie Williams, John Griffiths and 120 MNP.
Through 1964 and 1965, the long-suffering 120 MNP was
used in all the major rallies in the British Isles and several
overseas events such as the Geneva and Swedish Rallies,
however, eventually Barrie was persuaded to part with it to
a friend, who in turn sold it to another friend. Sometime
later the opportunity arose to buy 120 MNP back and, after
some detective work, Barrie managed to locate all the car’s
original paperwork and photographs up in the loft of the
previous owner’s ex-wife, safe, dry and intact, which is more
than can be said of 120 MNP which hadn’t fared too well.
With many offers of paid drives in single seaters, sports cars
and saloons, it was not Barrie’s intention to use the Cooper
in anger but simply to return it to the way it was when he
won the Welsh. A new shell was sourced and the car rebuilt
using the original components as far as possible and the
engine was fully rebuilt to the original 1964 Welsh Rally spec
by Southam Mini and Metro Centre in Warwickshire. A roll
cage was added and the seats and belts have been changed
in accordance with changing regulations.
Over the last few years, the little Cooper has been used
as a road car, taking Barrie all over the country to events
and shows and up to the BRDC for lunch. He loved it and
whenever he felt the need would jump in it, like putting
on a pair of your favourite slippers he would say and be
transported back to those carefree, happy days of the mid-
sixties.
With some updates to the safety equipment etc, 120 MNP
could well be a competitive historic rally car, however, we
prefer to think that it will be preserved as it is, the first Mini
Cooper ‘S’ to win an International Rally and the beloved
favourite of a charismatic enthusiast, a crowd-pleaser for five
decades, without whom British Motorsport will be the poorer.
It’s a modest car for a modest man. When strangers would
notice the logo on his jumper or the little shield pin on his
blazer lapel and innocently enquire what the letters BRDC
stood for, Barrie would usually reply ‘Bromyard Rural District
Council’ and leave it at that. Now that’s modest.

The two-door version of the Bentley Continental was
produced from 1991 to 2003 and at the time of its launch,
was the most expensive production car in the world. It was
the ultimate Grand Tourer - sleek, seductive and fast. It used
the engine from the Bentley Turbo R with certain updates
designed by the legendary company, Cosworth Racing
Engines, who confirmed that power was up to 385 BHP
with and an incredible 750 Nm of Torque available from
just 2000 RPM. This meant a car that weighed over two
tonnes could accelerate from 0 - 60mph in just six seconds,
remarkable.
This car is both a UK supplied and matching numbers
example that is coming from private ownership of a true
Bentley enthusiast. Finished in the traditional colour for a
Bentley of Ascot Green but with an unusual shade of tan
leather upholstery (known officially as Saddle) specified
from new. The non-standard features, as confirmed by the
original factory specification in the accompanying history
file, include fully veneered waist rails, a chestnut console and
walnut dashboard, colour-keyed door mirrors, electric rear
blind, reversing aid made audible and visible, an Ascot Green

only available in three bespoke colour combinations with
Macau Blue being the rarest. It was originally supplied new
by Quadrifoglio BMW of Southampton to a Lyndhurst-based
lady owner who enjoyed the 635csi for almost its entire

owner, a certain rock legend, Jay Kay of Jamiroquai with
only 46,000 miles on the clock and subsequently, in October
2015, was purchased by a BMW collector with the mileage

panels, centre console, glove box, roof lining, sun visors,
door pillars, upper door trim and dashboard. The Motorsport
635 was rumoured to have an additional few horsepower
(up to 292bhp) which may well be to compensate for all the

1992 Ford Escort RS Cosworth
LOT208
• Low number ownership and only 26,000 miles
• Original wheels on OE fit Pirelli P Zero’s
• Ford Motorsport Diamond White
• Pristine black leather LUX interior
The Ford Escort RS Cosworth proved a worthy successor
to its legendary 1980’s Sierra namesake. Just like the
Lancia Integrale and Subaru Impreza, this was a ‘Group
A’ rally car for the road - pure and simple. It was actually
underpinned by a shortened version of the Sierra Cosworth
RS Cosworth’s platform and powered by the same 2.0-litre
turbocharged, longitudinally-mounted, Cosworth-developed
engine driving all four wheels. The car was designed and
engineered in Boreham, styled by noted designer Stephen
Harper and ended up being assembled by Karmann in
Germany.
At the car’s launch in 1994, two models were available, the
Club-spec standard car at £21,380 and the Lux version,
which included electric windows, heated screen, sunroof
and Recaro seats. Power was up slightly from the Sierra
RS Cosworth, at 227bhp and performance consequently
improved.
Offered here is an early production Escort RS Cosworth that
has only covered 26,000 miles from new. It was delivered
new to a Mr Michael Lanes by Fosters of Truro Cornwall
and was one of the first ‘Lux’ models delivered in the
UK. In 1997, it was sold into the family of the well-known
Lotus Cortina Centre in the West Country in 1997 where it
remained before being sold to a family friend, making this
effectively just a three-owner car. The V5c shows just two
owners.
Above the Lux specification of sunroof and leather interior,
this fine RS comes with an additional set of Borbet wheels
which were a period option. The original wheels are in great
condition with original Pirelli P ‘Zero’ tyres. It has the Monte
Carlo-style front headlight treatment, a replacement alloy
header tank and the exhaust is stainless.
Finished in Ford Motorsport Diamond White with a beautiful
black interior, this low mileage RS needs to be shown or just
driven and, considering its low ownership, low mileage and
fabulous condition is available at a very sensible guide.

When Colin Chapman was drawing up plans to replace the
slightly troublesome Elite, he was intent on sticking to the
glassfibre monocoque principle and using a Ford-based twin
cam 1000cc engine (effectively creating a rather expensive
Lotus Spridget). However, serendipity got in the way and a
steel backbone chassis, designed for testing the prototypes-
mainly because the mechanical parts needed to be attached
to something for testing-had proved such a successful and
cost-effective solution that it was adopted for production.
Meanwhile, other larger variants of the Ford Kent block, up
from 997cc to 1340cc, became available and Chapman was
eager to exploit the potential for extra performance. So by
the time the 1962 Type 26 Elan Roadster took to the roads,
it had moved up a class.
The glass fibre-bodied Elan may only have been available
initially as a Roadster Kit but its specification was very
advanced and adhered to Chapman’s “just add lightness”
engineering philosophy. Power came from Harry Mundy’s
Ford-based Lotus 1558cc DOHC engine, it was fitted with
disc brakes all round and the independent suspension
was set up to optimise ride quality and handling finesse,
qualities for which this little car is still admired. It soon sired
other derivatives including the Type 26R racer, the Type 36
fixed-head coupe, the Type 45 drop-head coupe and the
Type 50 Elan +2 of 1967.
The 1971 Elan Sprint was essentially based on the Series
4 Elan bodyshell and was primarily designed to rekindle
demand and improve the performance of the nine-
year-old sports car. Conceived by Lotus Sales Director,
Graham Arnold, the Sprint’s most notable feature was the
horizontally-split two-tone paintwork echoing the livery of
the Gold Leaf Team Lotus Formula One cars. Meanwhile
providing the ‘go to match the show’ a new big-valve
cylinder head with high-lift cams and a raised compression
ratio, the work of Engineering Director Tony Rudd, provided
a 25% increase in power to 126bhp. The drivetrain was
suitably toughened and braced and the front callipers were
redesigned to cope with the increased performance.
This smart little S4 Sprint is UK-supplied and dates from
1970. It’s finished in the traditional ‘Gold Leaf Team Lotus’
colours and we understand it has had seven former keepers,
with the current owner enjoying the car since 2010. The
owner immediately prior to our vendor found the Elan in a
barn and commenced a three-year restoration which was
completed in May 2010. The car has only completed 1,000
dry summer miles since and there is large photo file in the
car’s history with a record of the restoration.
The odometer indicates 11,800 miles from new which our
consignor believes is accurate but obviously, this is not
warranted. There is a full history file with the Lotus with
invoices, photographs and older MOTs.

• First registered 2 July 1958. Full matching numbers,
original engine, gearbox and chassis
• Long term ownership from March 1966 to 2005 before

• Partially stripped in August 1967 and remained that

• Lovely detailed history of our vendor’s journey returning
the Aceca to glorious health. Notable ‘Concours’
success 2015 - 2018 winning the 2018 ACOC Hurlock
Trophy as ‘Champion Car’
British racing driver and wizard tuner, Ken Rudd, whose
business K.N.Rudd Ltd. were official suppliers of AC cars
in the mid-1950s, developed the very first Ace-Bristol and
it wasn’t long before his hybrid was quickly adopted by the
AC factory. First shown in autumn 1956, the AC Ace-Bristol
and its Coupé sibling, the Aceca-Bristol, were in production
by the spring of 1957. Because it was not only more
powerful than AC’s own engine but capable of a lot more
development, the Bristol unit made these cars much more
suited for competition and the extra power seemed to get
the best out of a very capable chassis.
The roots of the Ace-Bristol design go back to the Thirties,
when BMW engine design-chief, Fritz Feider, produced a
series of six-cylinder engines that culminated in the 1971-cc
unit of the fabled 328. After World War II, Bristol of England
“acquired” the design by somewhat dubious means and
manufactured it in the UK. By the mid-1950s, Bristol was
happy to supply this remarkable engine to other low volume
car makers.
#BE662 was delivered in June 1958 to K.N.Rudd Ltd. to
fulfil an order that had been placed by Flying Officer J
H Scullard. Subsequently, it was purchased by Graham
Enfield on the 25 March 1966 from Camden Motors who
had had it on their stock since Feb 1966 and he was to
own it until his death in 2005 when our vendor became the
AC’s next custodian. Perhaps with motorsport in mind (he
was later to race an Aston and a Porsche) Graham took the
car of the road August 1967 to rebuild it and the car then
spent 38 years in various addresses, Ruislip, Maidstone
and Northamptonshire whilst Graham focused on a life of
working and family. In fact it appears that a considerable
amount of work had indeed been carried out on the AC as,
to quote our vendor, “When purchased in 2005 the chassis
would roll and I asked the estate to blow the tyres up before
I collected so I could put it on the trailer, wow it rolled so
easily, it would appear that the suspension, brakes etc
were rebuilt previously, the rusty discs were just corroded,
new and unused, it came with almost all the original parts,
engine, diff, gearbox, wood, seats, all in all about 50 boxes!
It was so complete in the boxes that I had a new alloy fuel
tank, three new Solex carburettors, a new distributor and
even a replacement rear window catch for the one original
that had broken.”
It also transpired that at some point the chassis had been
modified at the rear to take Jaguar Mk II wheels as Aceca
tyres were not available, however, our vendor decided to
leave the chassis as altered and source some new 15” x
6.5” MWS wheels and Avon radial tyres. Progress during the
next 10 years is best described by our articulate owner; “In
September 2005, I bought a windscreen from Autoglazing,
Huntingdon and a new rear screen was obtained from Geoff
Leigh in ManchesterThe car was sent away 2006 to have the
chassis grit blasted by an “Artist in Grit Blasting” to remove
the green Hammerite paint and rust and they sprayed the
chassis black. I did not want to remove the body but they
managed to access 95% of the chassis Not knowing too
much about AC cars the Aceca was slowly rebuilt and parts
put back together by myself and Lewis Beales a motor
vehicle lecturer, usually on a Thursday evening. We removed
the head from the engine, it was all new inside and rebuilt
by Bristol Motor Co and left on the garage floor but was
regularly turned over by hand with oil in the bores.
In 2010, the car was sent to Nigel Winchester for new sills.
Seats and dash taken to Gibson Car & Coach Trimmers
in Harrogate to be recovered with new leather and carpet,
additional carpet and leather purchased at the same time to
complete the trimming elsewhere. December 2012, the car
went away for a week to Jody Arch at JA Classics Kimbolton
to have a few odd jobs done and the engine to be started for
the first time in 46 years which it did when the distributor
was reset. It did blow oil out as the pressure relief valve
was stuck after the engine had been sitting on the floor,
quick removal and clean and it started fine. Nov/Dec 2013
discussions took place with ACOC and Bertie Gilbert-Smith
to re-activate the original registration. This was relatively
simple; the car was known to Tony Michaels ACOC from
his Camden Motors days. I had the original continuation
logbook and various other details and in Jan 2014 a new V5
was issued by the DVLC. With an MOT not being required
the car was taxed and the insurance cover changed to
include on-the-road mileage.
In December 2013, the car went to Martin Jackson at
Huntingdon Coachworks for painting. How much will it
cost I asked? Martin replied, are you keeping it or selling it.
Keeping it, then Martin said he will do it and this was the
only discussion on the cost that took place. What colour,
it had to be as near to the original maroon as we could,
the closest we could find was Jaguar Damask Red, a 1956
colour for a 1958 car seemed appropriate. Martin was ill
in early 2014 so the car was not touched for three months
and then he had to complete a Mini Cooper rebuild but my
friends who know him well told me to leave it and be patient
and in Sept 2014 and I paid the modest bill and collected it,
what a fabulous job he had done, doors refitted, door gaps
resolved, numerous body imperfections filled and both rear
wings brought back into shape, not totally Concours but
good enough. Front, rear screens, number plate glass and
rubbers were all fitted, roof rubber strips fitted, basically
all the bits I would ruin if I tried. The exhaust was refitted,
Martin did not like my attempt at fitting. New number
plates were bought at Martin’s insistence, I could keep the
old ones but it was having new ones and how right he was.
Three months later, on Christmas day 2014, the car was
sufficiently complete to be driven for the first time in 47
years and five months and ready for proper use in 2015.
Small jobs would continue to occupy Lewis and I through
early 2015, rear inner wings, front wheel stone guards etc.
After a bit of further fettling by Jody over Christmas, the
car was running better but would be taken to Pete Baldwin
rolling road at Wimpole Garage on the 27 March 2015 to
have him set up the engine correctly. It arrived with 122bhp
and left, using less fuel and 134bhp. Professional help
used to fit the roof lining, leather bits around the rear glass
and complete and trim carpets to the boot and floor. Car
returned to Martin at Huntingdon Coachworks to do some
final bits to the paintwork.”
Eventually, the car was ready for the May 2015 ACOC

the Aceca Class at the 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 ACOC
events. In 2018, it also won the ACOC Hurlock Trophy as

there appears to have been 328 Acecas built, 151 with the
AC engine, eight with a Ford and 169 with the Bristol engine
of which only 89 Bristol-engined cars were UK-registered
in right-hand drive. 3759 BP is one of those 89 and with
a lovely history and looking this good, would be welcome

1965 Morris Mini Cooper S
LOT211
Registration: JUU 968D
Chassis Number: CA2S7799534
Engine Number: 9F/SA/738970
Estimate: £28,000 - £32,000
• A UK-supplied, right-hand drive, 1275 Cooper ‘S’
• Recently fully recommissioned
• Classically finished in Old English White over Almond
Green
• Coming from private ownership with a plethora of
paperwork
• Offered at a very competitive estimate
Alec Issigonis was firmly against the idea of a performance
version of his new baby, despite several long evenings of
animated discussion with his good friend, F1 guru, John
Cooper in the Royal Oak. However, after JC appealed to BMC
Management, Issigonis’ concerns were disregarded and
the two good friends eventually cooperated in creating what
rapidly became and still remains a legendary little motor
car. The first cars used a 997cc twin-carb A-series, changed
for a short-stroke 998cc unit from 1964. Front disc brakes
were standard and Mini-Coopers stood out thanks to their
two-tone paint schemes and special grilles. These nimble
little cars soon established their credentials as race and
rally winners and the stage was set for even faster versions.
The first of these - the 1,071cc Mini Cooper ‘S’ of 1963 -
took engine development a stage further and provided the
basis for the 970 ‘S’ and 1275 ‘S’ of 1964. The ultimate
Mini of its day, the 1275 ‘S’, pumped out 76bhp while
remaining exceptionally flexible and was good for a genuine
100mph - an astonishing performance at the time.
This, UK-supplied, right-hand drive 1275 Cooper ‘S’ is
classically finished in Old English White over Almond
Green and benefits from a recent refurbishment to a high
standard by a marque specialist. During the process, the
following new parts were fitted: wiring loom, clutch, master
cylinders, servo, hoses, radiator and the twin 1.25 inch
carbs were rebuilt.
This Mini was fully serviced on completion of the renovation
and sits on good 145 x 10 Dunlop ‘Aquajet’ tyres on rare,
original 3.5B Cooper ‘S’ rims. The front seats and interior
are showing a nice patina and new carpets were fitted
throughout. Coming from private ownership and offered at
a very competitive estimate, this car may reward further
investigation.

1965 Studebaker Lark Daytona
500*
LOT212
• Highly developed and extremely competitive car that is
both beautifully prepared and expertly engineered
• Built with no expense spared, originally by Fortec
Motorsport and more recently by, Richard Moore Racing
• Top spec Peter Knight freshly prepared, fully FIA-
compliant Chevrolet V8 producing circa 430BHP at
7,000 rpm
• Invited and competed at Goodwood five times over the
last decade gaining regular top finishes
• Eligible for and welcome in, the 2019 Masters Series,
2019 HRDC Historic Touring Cars, Bernie’s V8s and
HSCC Touring Cars
• The only racing Lark Daytona 500 in Europe and its
rarity will ensure invitations to all the greatest saloon
car races in the world
The Studebaker Lark was produced between 1959 and
1966 in various guises as Studebaker’s mainstream
production saloon and manufactured in both Canada and
Australia. The Lark Daytona was the third generation of the
Lark model and only produced between 1964 and 1966
with a unique separate chassis and body construction. It
was offered with various engine options including the small
block Chevrolet V8 which was introduced in 1965, for both
the American and Australian market only. The car was used
successfully in competition in Australia, specifically at
Bathurst where it gained a podium finish. During the final
year of production, a limited edition ‘Lark Daytona 500’
model was also produced as a pace car for the famous
Daytona 500 race in America.
This car is the only racing Lark Daytona 500 in Europe and
has therefore secured invitations to some of the most high
profile historic saloon races in the world, including both
Goodwood Members Meeting support races as well as the
main Goodwood Revival. It has been built on a no expense
spared basis, originally by renowned single seater experts
Fortec Motorsport and more recently by historic saloon
specialists, Richard Moore Racing.
The car runs with a top specification Peter Knight freshly
prepared and fully FIA compliant Chevrolet V8 which gives
circa 430bhp. The car runs to a minimum agreed weight
of 1,200 Kgs in the Masters Series and is also rev-limited
to 7,000 rpm. The car is extremely competitive and has
recently circulated Donington Park in early 1 minute 23,
Goodwood in 1 min 30.3 and Spa in 3 minutes dead. It’s
offered with a host of comprehensive spares including
12 wheels and tyres, two limited-slip differentials, spare
body panels for front wings, doors, bonnet and boot
(including moulds where appropriate) and many further
assorted components. It has been invited and competed at
Goodwood five times over the last decade gaining regular
top finishes in the Pierpoint Cup, the Jack Sears Trophy
and the St. Mary’s Trophy. In fact, at the 2018 Revival, it
qualified third overall and finished second overall in the St.
Mary’s Trophy celebrity race, just behind eventual winner,
Ash Sutton, after a race-long epic battle. It is welcome in
the 2019 Masters series, as well as the 2019 HRDC Historic
Touring Cars, Bernie’s V8s and HSCC Touring Cars. It is also
“highly likely” to receive another invitation to the various
prestigious races at Goodwood when their period of racing
is for 1960’s saloons. (Letter from Goodwood on file).
Offered at No Reserve, this is a highly developed and
extremely competitive car that is both beautifully prepared
and expertly engineered. Its rarity will ensure difficult to
obtain invitations and allow a competitive entry into all the
greatest saloon races across the world. Truly stunning and a
reluctant sale by long-term owner, Silverstone Auctions MD
- Nick Whale, who is making way for another exciting new
project. Please call him in the office for further details and

1973 Triumph Dolomite Sprint
Race Car
LOT213
Registration: Not applicable
Chassis Number: VA/2110-LDL0
Engine Number: Not Specified
Estimate: £20,000 - £25,000
• Ex-’Butch Racing Team’ car and ex-Spa 24 hours in
1974 and 1975
• Perfect candidate to be rebuilt to Group 1 Historic
Touring Car specification for HTCC and Goodwood
Member’s meeting
• Believed to have been last raced in 1981 and still
wearing that livery
• Offered with a BMIHT Certificate and a spare set of
wheels / tyres
Although the Triumph Dolomite range, introduced in 1972,
had proved to be refined and sporty, competitors such
as BMW’s 2002 had a performance advantage which was
costing Triumph dearly, both in terms of sales and prestige.
To remedy this, they unveiled the Dolomite Sprint in June
1973, although the launch had been delayed by a year,
having been due to go on sale in 1972 alongside the main
range.
A team of engineers, led by Spen King, developed a
16-valve, single overhead camshaft head. The capacity was
increased to 1,998cc and combined with bigger carbs the
output was upped to 127 bhp. This represented a significant
increase over the smaller 1850cc variant, however, it fell
frustratingly short of the original target of 135 bhp. As a
result of this new engine, the Dolomite Sprint has a claim to
be the world’s first truly mass-produced multi-valve car and
the design of the cylinder head won a British Design Council
Award in 1974. Performance was excellent, with 0-60 mph
taking around 8.4 seconds and a maximum speed of 119
mph.
We are informed that this particular Dolomite Sprint
entered the 1974 Spa 24 Hours as part of a four-car team
sponsored by Butch Tailors - the ‘Butch Racing Team’. Car
no. 46 was driven by Claude De Wael & Etienne Staelpart
and the team also ran the car that finished 5th overall
driven by the famous pairing of Tony Dron and Andy Rouse.
Whilst running very well in the top ten, this particular
car (chassis 2110) unfortunately failed in the 23rd hour
(listed as suspension maladies but believed to be a rear
axle failure). The following year, it’s believed the car was
entered in the 1975 Spa 24 hours, again as part of the
Butch Racing Team entry. The car was eventually to end
up in the ownership of Nelio Brunetti, along with its sister
car # 3353. Brunetti continued to use this car in European
Touring Car events held mainly in Belgium and Italy.
Believed to have been last raced in 1981, # ‘2110’ now
remains exactly as it was when it returned from its last
outing, in this distinctive Black, Orange and White colour
scheme with sponsorship by ‘Mach 3’ (Belgian shoe-
makers) and Brunetti’s name on the roof. However, open the
bonnet and bootlid and yellow paint from its original Butch
Racing Team livery is still evident, confirming its originality.
Since then ‘2110’ and sister chassis ‘3353’ have remained
together for most of their lives passing through European
dealers until they both ended up in the hands of Dirk Van
Gorp, from whom the previous owner purchased it. For the
past two years the car has been professionally stored in
dehumidified storage maintaining its period look.
A ‘British Motor Industry Heritage Trust’ Certificate
accompanies the ‘Dolly’ and confirms ‘2110’ was built on
the 12th July 1973. The original wheels, along with various
other components, are included in the sale. This car would
be the perfect candidate to rebuild to Group 1 Historic
Touring Car specification and obtain FIA papers to ensure
that it is fully eligible for HTCC and some of the most
prestigious events, including perhaps, the Gerry Marshall
Trophy at the Goodwood Members Meeting, the Algarve
Classic Festival and the Spa Six Hours Endurance weekend.
In short, this Dolly needs adopting and returning to its
former glory.

1972 Lola T 290 FIA Sports
Racing Car
LOT214
• Took part in the 1974 Targo Florio, fitted with a Porsche
906 engine
• Purchased by our vendor in 2007. Fitted with a
Cosworth BDG engine and a Hewland FG 400 gearbox
• Last raced at the 2011 Silverstone Classic driven by
David Gathercole
• Fitted with a zero-timed, David Gathercole-built,
Cosworth BDG. Current FIA HTP
• Eligible for a number of series such as World Sportscar
Masters and Classic Endurance Racing
The T290 was Lola’s 1972 contender for the European
2-litre Sports Car ‘Championship for Makes’, a vibrant
series which ran at most of the classic circuits in the 1970s
with many famous drivers.
Lola designers Bob Marston, Patrick Head and John
Barnard produced an entirely new car to replace the
outgoing and winning T210 and T212. The new 1972 car
was based on an aluminium monocoque and designed to
take a variety of 2-litre engines including the Cosworth FVC
and the Chevy Vega. As always with Lola, their production
race cars were very competitive and easy to run for privateer
racer and the monocoque T290 was direct competition for
the Chevron B21 and Abarth Osella SE021.
Chassis HU 16 was originally supplied through European
Lola agent Jo Bonnier where it remained for 2 years and
subsequently was sold to Italian Bruno Rebac. The car,
at that time, was fitted with a Porsche 906 engine and
took part in the 1974 Targa Florio where it, unfortunately,
crashed, however, the parts were subsequently reassembled
into a new chassis built around the original bulkheads by
John Collins.
In 1988, a Swedish gentleman purchased the car and took
it back to Italy where it remained until 1995 when a Mr Jim
Jaqua purchased it and exported it to America. Mr Jaqua
prepared the car for racing and it was then in the hands of
well known US preparer, Lee Chapman Racing. The car was
later purchased through Simon Hadfield by our vendor in
2007 and is currently fitted with a Cosworth BDG engine
and a Hewland FG 400 gearbox.
HU 16 last raced at the 2011 Silverstone Classic driven by
well-known engine builder David Gathercole who had fitted
one of his own 2-litre FVC engines for the occasion. David
ran as high as 3rd in the race against such opposition as
Lola T70s demonstrating just how quick and competitive
this car can be.
Subsequently, the Lola has been fitted with a Cosworth BDG
zero-timed engine making it eligible for a number of series
such as World Sportscar Masters and Classic Endurance
Racing. With a new owner, this car should be as competitive
once again as it was in 1972 and 2011
The Lola comes complete with full FIA HTP papers.

Engine Number: Not specified
Estimate: £65,000 - £75,000
• Desirable ‘K-Code’ Mustang finished in Guardsman Blue
• Raced from new in 1965 by David Tallasken before
being campaigned by IMSA winner Gene Felton
• Engine totally rebuilt by I.C.E. Automotive Racing
Engines in 2017 and used minimally since
• Potential entrant to Goodwood Revival, Tour Auto, Spa 6
Hours and Masters Pre-66 Touring cars
• Supplied with a UK V5c and a superb history file
UK saloon racing in the 1960s was epitomised by the
battles between the American V8s and the British Lotus
Ford Cortinas and Austin Coopers of the day. They were
driven, in the British Saloon Car Championship (pre-
BTCC), by current Grand-Prix stars such as Jim Clark, Jack
Brabham and Graham Hill, as well as saloon car specialists
like Frank Gardener, Brian Muir, Sir Gawaine Bailie, Roy
Pierpoint and Jack Sears. It was an exciting and evocative
period of racing and the crowds enjoyed the closeness of
the racing brought about by the contrasting abilities of the
nimble Cortinas and Minis and the straight line speed of the
V8s.
We are pleased to offer this special 1965 ‘K-Code’ Ford
Mustang Notchback, finished in Guardsman Blue, which
was purchased new by a Mr David Tallaksen who set about
racing the car straight out of the box. Mr Tallaksen went
on to campaign the Mustang across the South Eastern
States, even setting a track record at Savannah International
Speedway in 1965. A few years later Mr Tallaksen went on
to own a Ford GT40 Mk.I – clearly bitten by the Ford/Shelby
bug.
Late on in the 1965 season, the car changed pilots and
owners, when Tallaksen sold it to a Mr Gene Felton,
who, at the time couldn’t afford a new Shelby Mustang,
so decided instead to have this car upgraded to Shelby
specification. Two full seasons in the SCCA Regional and
National Championships in 1966 and 1967, saw Gene win
a number of races and finish in the top three each season,
culminating in an overall win of the Southeast Division in
1967. The car and driver were both invited to the American
Road Race of Champions each year, with a credible 6th
place finish overall at Riverside, California in 1966 – a
picture of the car in action at this race is included in the
file. In July 1967, Gene Felton entered The Paul Revere
250 Trans Am race at Daytona, leading the charge until an
engine fault forced retirement from the race. At the end of
the 1967 season, Gene retired the car as it was in need of
repair following an on track skirmish and the arrival of a
new Camaro saw the trusty K-Code sidelined. Remaining in
storage throughout the 1970s and into the 1980s, Mr Felton
eventually decided to return the car to its former glory and
post-restoration began to campaign it successfully once
again, winning on its first outing at Road Atlanta in 1989.
Due to its illustrious period race history and its period-
correct race preparation, it became one of the first historic
race cars to gain SCCA certification in 1992. After some 28
years of ownership in 1993, Gene sold the Mustang to a Mr
Richard Amsden of Florida. The car remained in the USA
until it was purchased in 2006 by a Mr Anders Nannerup
and exported to Denmark.
During Mr Nannerup’s ownership, it was raced in Denmark
with a class win at the Grand Prix of Denmark and a 3rd
overall in the Danish Vintage Championship before it was
again the subject of a full restoration in 2008 preparing it to
‘Historic 1965 Mustang Appendix K’ specification. Finished
in its 1967 Paul Revere 250 Trans Am race livery, it was
invited to compete at the 2014 Goodwood Revival where
Mr Nannerup shared driving duties with ex-F1 driver Rupert
Keegan.
Purchased in 2015 by the current owner, it has since been
prepared by WDK Motorsport and was the recipient of a
full and comprehensive engine rebuild by I.C.E Automotive
Racing Engines in July 2017 resulting in an invoice in excess
of £15,500, however the dyno sheet confirms a healthy
395bhp at 6,800 RPM. The car was then campaigned at the
2017 Goodwood Revival and Tour Auto.
