1964 Merlyn Mk 7 - new lower price!
01/11/2023

The Mk 7 was Merlyn’s first F3 car, was also intended for F2 and often raced in Formula Libre. Based on a spaceframe chassis the car had aluminium sheet stiffening around the cockpit to increase the torsional rigidity. In period the Merlyn showed promise with Chris Irwin running well in several races, challenging Jackie Stewart on occasions and claiming a win at Aintree. A total of eleven Mk 7s were built in either F3 or F2 specification.

This example was originally owned and raced by John Bridges of Red Rose Motors fame. He bought two new Mk 7s from the factory, racing one in F3 and this car in Formula Libre with a Ford engine. Subsequent owners are recorded in the register, including spending a period in Belgium fitted with a Formula Junior engine.

The car is currently in Libre specification with a Connaught twin cam engine and Hewland Mk 4 gearbox. In this form the car has competed in a handful of demonstration events and hillclimbs, including Chateau Impey. As such it offers a relatively low-cost entry into classic speed events and might also achieve invitation class entries to historic race series.

Complete with ownership history and two engine covers, one of which is unused. For further details please contact Damon Milnes on 07802 779301 or info@adamsykes.co.uk

Pilbeam MP92 Sports Racing car - new lower price
16/07/2023

PILBEAM MP92 (carbon tub) Sports Racing car with 7.3 litre Steve Schmidt Racing of Indianapolis all alloy Chevrolet V8 Race Engine and Hewland NLT 6 speed sequential gearbox.

The car was built by Pilbeam in 2005 specifically for speed hillclimbing, but is equally at home for sprinting on race circuits. The car is the only MP92 which features a carbon fibre tub, it was modelled on the space frame Pilbeam MP84 models that were raced as LMP2 cars at Le Mans and in the USA in the Sebring series. The engine is was built by Steve Schmit Racing of Indianapolis to the following specification:

415.5 cubic inch capacity aluminium tall deck block, raised big, cam location, 904 lifter bore, Callies Magnum 4” stroke crankshaft, Oliver steel I-beam connecting rods, J.E. pistons with tool steel gudgeon pins, Total Seal piston rings,Clevite 77 engine bearings, , Fell Pro engine gaskets, 55 mm Competition solid roller camshaft, Isky Red Zone EZ roll X-lifter,ATI super damper,Canfield/CFE/Schmidt 18 degree aluminium cylinder heads with CNC and hand porting Titanium valves, titanium retainers,Manle valve springs, Comp Cam pushrods, Jesel belt drive and Jesel rocker arms, Schmidt buil alloy engraved rocker covers, special ported Rdlebrick/ Glidden intake manifold, Quick fuel 950 Road Race carbuator, MSD distributor MSd spark plug wires and crank trigger system, Billit timing pointer, complete dry sump oiling system with remotr oil tank and all Earl’s braided hoses, ARP engine fasteners.
The engine was initially too fierce with the power delivery and consequently sent to Peter Knight Racing UK where a softer cam and fuel injection was fitted which made the engine more tractable.

The engine on a dyno produced 764bhp and 646.1 lb.ft. torque.(dyno sheets available)

The gearbox is a Hewland NLT 6 speed sequential, developed for world rally cars, to cope with the high b.h.p.and torque. Carbon fibre clutch.

The car will be sold with 3 ½ sets of alloy wheels, 6 rears and 8 fronts, one set fitted with new Avon slick tyres, one set with good intermediate Avon slick tyres , and one set fitted with good part worn Avon slicks. 2 additional front alloy rims without tyres. The car comes with additional bodywork, namely, new front aerofoil, 2 spare sills, 4 spare air vents, front brake air ducts, drivers bucket seat, spare set of damper springs, oil cooler radiator assembly
kit. 4 New brake discs fitted all round in late 2021, new Redtop 60 battery fitted and the car is self starting.

Swift SC93F Formula Ford
10/07/2023

This very successful Sprint and Hillclimb FF is for sale, preferably as a race ready rolling chassis with a good spares package. However, a strong and little used FF1600 engine may be included.

The 1993 Swift is probably the best model produced in the day by the company (which is still in existence so chassis and bodywork spares are available). It has provided its pensioner owner with 10 years of trouble-free and economical competition before I purchased an historic FF.

It was prepared in early 2023 for my son to compete before a change of plans. The car is fitted with a good Hewland LD200 gearbox with integral bellhousing and oil tank which take the rear suspension pick ups. All springs/dampers are pushrod operated and the brake balance is cockpit adjustable. The seat belts are in date (although the extinguisher needs servicing) so it’s ready to go. The rolling chassis package includes all engine ancillaries – manifold, silencer, new Brise geared starter, plumbing, Red Top 30 battery, etc.

The car comes with MSUK ROPs certification, log book and factory preparation and set up manual. Spares include 6 wheels with ACB10s, 10 spare LD200 gear ratios (all as new -good), 4 wishbones and various rod ends and spacers, nose cone, side pod, brake pads, Brise 10 tooth starter, alternative springs, etc.

The engine was built by Bob Yarwood and has only about 90 minutes use since new. I acquired it in 2020 and it has been kept unused as a spare engine for my historic FF. The head was refreshed in 2022. It is fitted with a Neil Bold filter oil pump and ‘cut out’ dry sump pan, so it is ready to drop into the Swift, although I’d prefer to keep it as a spare.

Available as a complete car (engine, gearbox and chassis) for £10,000 or as a rolling chassis and spares for £6,500.

Austin Healey 100/6 -3 litre Manufactured in January 1959 -800 EAC

KAIMANN FORMULA SUPER VEE
10/01/2023

This Kaimann from circa 1972/3 has just had an engine “refresh” to include, new bearings, crank and cam, new alloy cam drive gear, new oil pump (uprated) new pushrod tubes, barrels honed and new piston rings and all gaskets and seals where required. The 1700cc engine has standard size bearings and pistons (flat top high compression). So, plenty of scope for any future machining if required. The motor has an electronic distributor, electric fuel pump and pressure regulator feeding twin 40 DRLA Dellorto carbs. A small high output race alternator and a high torque starter. A bespoke exhaust system from RS Fabrications (Towcester). It will require running in and tuning.

The car is fitted with an isolator switch and an Anderson socket. It starts from the jump battery and runs perfectly well on its own alternator and “red top” battery. I would however recommend a new battery and for this reason the seat has been unbolted to gain access.

The car has been built according to original specifications and MSA Blue book specifications although it is not yet MSA log booked.

In keeping with the original specifications the car is VW based. 1700cc ‘W’ designated casings 4cyl. Air cooled engine. Close ratio VW gearbox.

The frame is an Austrian built Kaimann matching original specification drawings. Front uprights are VW but all suspension arms and rods are new. Fabricated from original parts by RS Fabrications. The rear uprights and arms are also new from the same company. I have the jigs required should you need to make more.

Shocks are fully adjustable Ohlins with remote gas cylinders. Front disc brakes and a rear VW conversion from drums to discs, dash-controlled brake bias. All lines are braided. A hydraulic clutch again with braided lines.

X2 sets of wheels one set ATS 6x13 alloys in very good condition with slicks and a second set in fair condition will require tyres, there are also a number of assorted tyres to come with the spares package.

There is a mechanical plumbed in fire system by OMP still in date, and a six-point STR belt in date to the end of 2023.

Bodywork includes x2 side pods, nose cone, and cockpit top, all original Kaimann. Also included are x3 wings, x2 front and x1 rear but although in period I doubt they are originally from a Kaimann. I also have the original long range fuel tanks, but of course I doubt you will be able to use them today as they are fiberglass. The cars were very popular in the USA in the early 1970’s as support to the IndyCar Series.

I would recommend a full “spanner check”, engine running in and tuning and a track alignment before use.

The car is sat on a tall wheeled stand which is also part of the package. There are also available and included, a number of used engine components including engine casings, barrels, heads, cranks, pistons etc. Two VW gearboxes and a good number of various VW spare parts that I can dig out of storage and include.

The reason for the sale is that I now have a different competition car and the Kaimann will not get used. It could just sit in a garage or even in a display (it is 50 years old) but I would like to see it go to someone who would use it. I will be sad to see it go as it has been in my possession for around 15 years. The car will need to be picked up as I will not be able to deliver.

OIRO £12,000

Please note this is a race car. I can offer no warranties or guarantees.

Please contact Mike Wilkinson for more details, preferably by email at mike.wilkinson240z@gmail.com

OMS 2000M 1100cc
10/12/2022

Iconic OMS 2000M Hillclimb/sprint single seater  - very light use/mileage on Powertec tuned ZZR 1100 engine. RS1700 lsd. 500+hp/ton performance. Super reliable. New Sabelts, fresh Avon slicks complete will spares including spare set of wheels, nose cone, wings and spoilers, quick lift jack, Andersen plug/cable, final drives etc.

It has about total of 35 miles on engine since build by Powertec - sealed tags are attached to key components (head etc). Fresh and very sharp with plenty of torque compared to the more modern injected engines. It has 4x race keihin flat slide carbs so super responsive. Dyno chart reading 135hp and flat torque curve with peak at 78 lb/ft at rear wheels (usually lose about 40hp from crank via the box, chain , lsd and props).

It comes with 2 spare exhausts to allow for different noise restricted venues so has quiet (99db) , medium ( 106db) and full bore (115db).

Additional Details:

• Built in 2004, chassis number 111
• Engine: Kawasaki ZZR1100 16v transverse four with Keihin flat slide racing carbs, 6 gears
• Electric water pump, no alternator

Changes since the original build:

• Engine rebuild by Powertec in c. 2014
• Larger carbon fibre front wing, for more downforce (Cost £1200)
• Radiator with electric fan for continuous running at stable temperature
• Higher capacity battery with Anderson socket for lunchtime charging
• Currently a simple clutched sequential manual, but could easily have a new quick shifter fitted

Full service & all fluids in July 2020 - has only been used around a dozen times since then.

Steve Owen who built it (chassis number 111) also maintained it for me, hence the new carbon front wing which is not as per originally fitted but a massive improvement- can take hollow at Gurston absolutely flat out @ 110 ish.

It is one of the wider cockpit versions so plenty of room, lighter weight than most other 2000Ms at around 300kg as has been slimmed down by with having an electric water pump and no alternator (it has proper Varley race battery and an Andersen plug).

Avon Slicks are good with plenty life left especially the fronts - the spare set of wets (on rims included) are done but useful for paddock manoeuvres.

New rear springs with spare lighter ones also.

Plenty of paperwork , log book etc.

Offers in region of £8,500

The tuning has been carried out by Chris Todd and the build was finished this year and took 2 years at a cost of £28k excluding my labour, pizzas, Costa coffees and headache tablets! The engine and gearbox are very easy to remove and it has been designed so that you can remove one or the other or both at the same time. This would make an insane road car as I fully well know or a crazy track or hill climb car.

I am open to offers but please do not waste my time with low offers. I’ve built this car from the ground up and I know every nut and bolt but my heart has always been set on a MK2 escort so that’s why I’m selling it. Part exchange is possible for a MK2 Escort.

Videos available by WhatsApp if needed but no test drives unless I am happy you have the insurance and means of payment.
 

1978 Lola T492 ‘HU21’
09/01/2019

The oldest Lola T492 on the UK Lola Register is now for sale after a full engine and chassis rebuild by Sports 2000 specialist Andy Cattani.

‘HU21’ was one of the five cars imported into the US by Carl Haas in 1978 to kickstart the Sports 2000 class in North America and is believed to be the only survivor. It was raced in the SCCA by Milwaukee-based Mark Daniels and later by Nick Slevin of Newport Beach who took it to the 2004 Historic Sportscar Racing West S2000 Championship. Nick’s HSR West logbook forms part of an extensive history file that comes with the car.

It was re-imported into the UK in 2012 by club racer Steve Baker who has since commissioned the rebuild and now offers it for sale.

As well as a rebuild of the Ford Pinto engine and Hewland gearbox the car features a new clutch, new brake calipers, new exhaust, adjustable Quantum suspension and new bodywork. The original front bodywork and a stack of spares including a set of wets on rims and quick-lift jack come with the car.

The car is located in West Sussex at sports and classic car dealership ‘Lightning Quarter Garage’ where it can be viewed. Contact Neil or Mark on 01403 289719 for further details.

JEDI MK6/7 SUZUKI GSXR 1000
09/03/2018

The (My) Last Jedi:

One of the very few cars in the British Sprint Championship to complete all the rounds in 2017 as it did in 2016. It has regularly made the BSC Top 12 Run Off, finishing 12th overall in 2016 and 11th in 2017.

It’s an LWB MK6 with all ‘MK7’ upgrades. Importantly, it has the factory approved ROPS with MSA paperwork, extra footbox diagonals, upgraded cockpit diagonals, etc. It has, and runs, with the full circuit foot protection, etc., things which are often discarded by others and the car has an absence of the usual appalling butchery.

The car is fitted with a Suzuki GSXR1000K2 with all the usual internal components essential to maintain reliability. It has a stock ECU and is mapped, happy on 97octane pump fuel and just (and I do mean ‘just’) rebuilt. By rebuilt, I mean new rings/shells/Cometics/etc.

The rear drivetrain is not the usual Jedi/Mini. It has a Quaife/Radical ATB differential on bespoke carriers, through to Lobro joints, lightweight driveshafts honed from finest unbreakium, factory billet drive flanges and HD CV joints. It hasn’t broken yet - only the bank balance.

It also comes with stainless manifolding, AP Brakes, factory alloy AVO’s, STACK dashboard, Jedi billet wheels with reasonably fresh A15’s and a 2nd set of wheels with A15 wets.

It also comes with a Race-Technology DL1 data logger, full UK (the BSC calendar, England, Wales, NI and even Scotland) logged circuit and running data supplied with car (especially great to have if you’re a newbie). There are a few smaller circuits in there as well.

Offered as a complete ready to run package, with spare unused unbreakium driveshafts, vast sprocket range, a range of calibrated springs, tailored weatherproof cover and anything else I can actually find,

It's set up for simple, reliable, easy independent running (no starter battery/personnel required whatsoever). Just sit in it and drive. It really is that good (usually).

All for £13,000.

It is located in the East Midlands, contact: inversegate@gmail.com

Chevron B48 Rover V8 - NOW SOLD -
18/01/2023

Chevron B48 Rover V8    £39,950.00
 
Chevron’s F2 B48 was based on the monocoque of the B42 but incorporated revised aerodynamics and suspension by Tony Southgate to incorporate ground effects. This is chassis number B48-08-79 which was run by the factory for Patrick Galliard in 1979. It is also believed to have been driven as a development car by Riccardo Patrese at the end of season Macau event in 1978.

The B48 was subsequently raced by Eddie Jordan and Brian Robinson, who eventually converted it to a Donington GT car with a Lotus Espirit body. The car then found success in speed events, where it was converted back to a single seater, fitted with a V8 and won several class awards and also FTD at the Shelsley Walsh classic meeting. For full history please see https://www.oldracingcars.com/chevron/b48/

The Chevron’s impressive specification includes a JE Engineering 5.0 Rover V8 on down-draught Dellortos, FG gearbox and slicks and wets on Dymag wheels. With impressive power and torque the car is highly entertaining to drive and still represents a competitive proposition for classic hillclimbs. Alternatively it could be converted back to F2.

Complete with 5 spare ratios, running spares, MSA log-book and a detailed history file reflecting the significant sums spent on converting and maintaining this lovely example. Great value for money.

ALDON AL3 SPORTS RACING CAR - NOW SOLD -
23/09/2022

Very reluctantly due to health issues, I am having to offer for sale my original and unique ALDON Sports Racing Car.

The ALDON was originally built and designed by myself and Don Loughlin as one of the first monocoque chassis racing cars of the late ‘60s early ‘70s. It was designed to take a variety of engines that could be used in various formulae.
We built it first for the initial F100 Sports cars series using a BMC 1300 engine racing against the likes of the legendary Tom Pryce in the works Royale. It was also part of the F100 team that competed in the Thruxton 6hr relay along with Mark Cole (Eurosport and Hot Car Editor) Lyndon “Taffy” Thorne and John Calvert.  The team came 2^nd overall only a lap down after 6 hours and 509 miles’ racing, the Aldon shared by Alan and Lyndon doing 350 miles faultlessly!
Lyndon then purchased the car and converted it to a Gp5 car with a 1300 Cosworth FVA engine and raced in the 1972/3 Motoring News/Esso Championship winning the 1300 class and 2^nd overall both years.
It was then purchased by the Hart brothers John and Gregg and raced very successfully in the 1980s HSCC championships, winning five of its six races.
Marcus Pye, former editor of Autosport purchased it off the Harts and took it to the USA and with driver Phil Meany it competed at Laguna Seca, Watkins Glen and Virginia raceway, winning the SCCA 1600cc class and many other races.  They wanted to put it into the 2 litre class due to disgruntled Lotus 23, Merlyn and Elva drivers!

I bought it back from the USA in 2008 with the winning 1600 Lotus T/C engine and converted it to run in the HSA and Midland Hillclimb Championship being very successful with
2^nd overall and class winner in the 2010 MHC and FTD at Prescott Classic meeting. 2^nd FTD Shelsley Classic Meeting Class record Shelsley Walsh 31.05 Class Record Loton Park 55.18 Class record Curborough and numerous class and overall awards. The car is perfectly suited for circuit racing, sprints and hillclimbs.
Spec of the car includes:
Monocoque Chassis with side pods that take bag tanks but has a small alloy tank inserted at the moment for the hills.  Fibreglass body (original moulds included).

Short Stroke all-steel 1,600cc Lotus T/C engine built by a leading USA engine specialist with steel billet crank, steel billet camshafts, Carillo rods and custom forged pistons. We have dyno figures from the States of 200bhp @7,700 rpm and peak torque of 141.2 @6800 rpm but to be honest, we have only seen 175/180 on our dyno! Still good though!  The engine has been completely reliable over the years I have had it, with only a couple of freshen-ups required.  It is very easy to drive up to 9,000rpm with no flat spots or black holes. Twin plate racing clutch. 2 x 45 DCOE Webers, electronic ignition.

Hewland Mk 8 4/5 speed box (rebuilt by JP racing at Silverstone few years ago.  LSD (also rebuilt by JP)

Koni Alloy fully adjustable dampers-rebuilt by Koni
8 x 13 and 10 x 13 split rims with spare set of wheels and tyres
At present on Brabham rear uprights but original Aldon units available along with a few spares. Solid spline hardy drive shafts. Avon classic pattern tyre.  Willans in date harness. Stack play back Tacho. MSA log book and HSCC vehicle identity forms.

The car is all ready to go but needs a bit of TLC as it has only done a few events in the last three years, with none this year. The chassis will easily take an 1800 BDG and FT200 g/box to upgrade
I am open to offers but feel the car with such providence and success is sensibly priced at £29,500.

1972 Brabham BT38 - NOW SOLD -
03/03/2022

The BT38 was the first monocoque production Brabham, and the designation applied to F2, Formula Atlantic and F3 versions. The owner of this stunning example has carried out and commissioned extensive research into its history. Starting out as an F3 car run by the Australian International Racing Organisation of Brian Mcguire and future world champion Alan Jones, it was subsequently used in Irish Formula Atlantic, re-tubbed and became a very successful hillclimb car in the Channel Islands.

Purchased by the current owner in 2013, and benefitting from a full nut and bolt Edginton Racing restoration to Formula Atlantic specification in 2014, including a new upright, new wishbones, Konis, springs, bodywork, radiators, bag tanks, two sets of new wheels, a full chassis analysis and professional set up. The car was attractively finished in Graham Hill/Jägermeister livery and went on to compete successfully in HSCC events in 2014 and 2015.

Following a period of inactivity the BT38 had a full recommission and conversion to F2 specification by Edginton Racing in 2020, including a new clutch, dampers, high pressure fuel pump, pre-warmer and safety equipment.

The Brabham has not been used since and is offered as a rolling chassis ready for the installation of a BDG or BDA.  Complete with a detailed history file, current (Atlantic) HTP and a useful spares package. In superb condition and would make a great classic hillclimb car.

Price £39,950 ono. For further details please see www.adamsykes.co.uk or call Damon Milnes on 07802 779301

1989 VISION V89 CLUBMANS - NOW SOLD -
29/01/2021

1989 VISION V89 CLUBMANS £12,950

This highly developed Clubmans began life as a very successful circuit car and has subsequently been converted to a turbocharged hillclimb and sprint contender with a very competitive power to weight ratio. 

A multiple class winner in hands of John Barnard in the 1996 and 1997 Castle Combe GT series, the car benefitting from extensive development from Gould Engineering during this time.

The Vision was then extensively rebuilt and modified to accept one of the special turbocharged K Series engines which were developed by Rover for the MG EXF project. The car has proved to be a competitive proposition in speed events over the years but has not been used since being immaculately prepared with a freshly rebuilt engine.

The V89’s impressive specification includes:

- Rover K series 1.4 Turbo which is unraced since a complete engine and turbo rebuild, coupled with a new Emerald ECU with switchable maps, boost control and launch control
- Quaife 4 Speed dog box with a triple plate AP clutch
- Lightweight chassis with immaculate bodywork and carbon fibre wings

With over 1,000 bhp per tonne the Vision has achieved numerous FTDs and class wins in its current form or alternatively the very rare EXF engine (one of five) could be sold to an MG enthusiast and the car reverted to circuit specification for the MSV Clubmans Sports Prototype Championship.  

Complete with extensive history and set up information, two sets of wheels, moulds, jigs and suspension parts.  Offered for sale again due to change of plans.  Sensible offers and part exchanges considered.

1963 Cooper T65 £69,950 (price reduced) - NOW SOLD -
22/09/2020

Chassis FJ-15-63 first appeared at the 1963 Racing Car Show fitted with hydrolastic suspension and known as the Hydro Proto Car. This arrangement proved to be unsuitable and the car was converted to coil springs and run during that season in Formula Junior by the Tyrrell Racing Team. The Cooper then ran in International F3 in 1964 before being purchased by Peter Stewart who competed in Scottish races and hill climbs until 1970. The car was then laid up until 2007 and not used in competition until purchased by the current owner in 2009.

Very successful and reliable, the T65 has been campaigned continuously over the last 10 years, mainly in the FIA Lurani Championship where it won class E2 in 2014, 2015 and 2016. The T65 has raced at all the major Grand Prix Circuits and many other major events including Laguna Seca, Watkins Glen and the Vernasca Silver Flag. The T65 was invited to the Goodwood Revival in 2018 where it competed in the Chichester Cup.

The car is in race ready condition and is fitted with a very strong Swiftune engine with only 30 minutes running since rebuild. The six speed Jack Knight ERSA gearbox has had a major rebuild and has zero hours running since. The tyres have only been run at the Silverstone Classic and Goodwood and the T65 has current HTP papers expiring in 2026. It comes with a large spares package and is also eligible for Historic F3 Racing when fitted with a 1000cc engine. The correct F3 gearbox (requiring rebuild) comes with the car.

Complete with a detailed period documented history, including articles (with cut away drawings) in Autosport and Sports Car Graphic and all invoices and race results since purchased by the current owner in 2009. In excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition and would make a lovely classic hillclimb car.

OMS 2000M - NOW SOLD -
30/07/2019

This car has been a fantastic introduction to single seaters. I'm only selling it as I have acquired another car/project. It is a well-known car that I have owned for the last 3 years and was originally built for Tim Wilson in 2001 and more recently run very successfully by Keith and Chris Green. It is the rare long cockpit version.

It has been a competitive clubmans car having given me regular event class wins as well as both HSA Speed and Midland Speed Championships class trophies.

Connaught tuned Honda CBR 1100 Blackbird (1137cc) engine, race cams, polished head, Keihin FCR41 flat-slide carbs

• MIL flat shifter

• Quaife QDF7ZR ATB Diff
• 2 sets of centre lock wheels (1 set split rims, 1 set Compomotive CXR’s.
• Various spares

Shortly after buying the car I stripped it down and refurbished it including replacing wheel bearings and front brake discs along with checking or replacing rod ends where required. Since then I have replaced the diff, the CV & Tri-Lobe joints and driveshafts and fitted new front brake callipers. Recently stripped and checked over again prior to having fresh paint along with a new clutch.

£9000.00

Also available is a professionally covered Brian James Minno twin axle trailer with tyre rack and winch. Fits inside a single garage. £2500.00 (to be offered with the car).

Fitted with a Sadev sequential gearbox with paddle-shift, GT3 RS suspension and full datalogging systems.

Complete with a large history file and a significant spares package including a new custom supercharger kit which has never been fitted. Offered for sale at approximately a quarter of its development cost, and would make a superb hillclimb, modsports or track day car.

PRG Prosporter trailer also available by separate negotiation.

1947 DELLOW PROTOTYPE TRIALS CAR - NOW SOLD -
03/09/2018

Dellow Motors Ltd was launched by Ken Delingpole and Ron Lowe to produce rugged road-going sports cars for enthusiasts to use on trials, rallies and hillclimbs. They won numerous events in the late 1940s and early 1950s, including the Daily Express National Rally and the Circuit of Ireland Rally against strong opposition. Notable works drivers included future Grand Prix driver Peter Collins and future multiple hillclimb champion Tony Marsh.

CAB 282 is one of the best-known examples of the marque and is one of two survivors of the four prototypes built by Dellow immediately after WW2. It was first owned for Lewis Tracey who was very active in club motorsport in the early post war years. Unlike the later production Dellows it has an Austin 7 chassis but in common with most Dellows it has an 1172cc Ford engine and a Ford front axle. During the 1940s and 50s the car was used in a wide variety of trials, circuit events and hillclimbs as well as being used on the road.

The car had a period in storage and by the 1970s it had fallen into a rather tired state, but fortunately it came into the hands of Peter Seabrook-Harris who over time restored it to its current lovely condition. The Dellow starts on the button and on the road it is very lively and handles well. It is very sound with a sweet engine, an easy to use Ford three-speed gearbox, taut suspension, good steering and strong brakes. It is great fun to drive and ready for classic trials.

Complete with a very comprehensive history file including dozens of original black and white photographs, letters, event reports and articles from motoring publications. The file also includes several restoration photos and a film of the car made at the 2006 Dellows Meeting at Shelsley Walsh, where the car attracted much attention. Also a fascinating three page article by Michael Ware which was published by The Automobile magazine in June 2013.

This historically significant competition car would grace any collection.

1964 ALPINE RENAULT A110 - NOW SOLD -
05/07/2018

The history of this stunning A110 can be traced back to 1977 was exported from southern France to the USA. According to its first US owner the car looked as if it was used for competition, having virtually no trim, no ignition key (just a master switch) and various other competition features that were available in period from the factory, including a lightweight body, plexiglass rear screen, fibreglass bumpers (replaced with steel at some time), front mounted radiator, high ratio steering rack, close ratio 5 speed gear box (still 5 speed but no longer close ratio), removable rear cross member to aid rapid engine removal and substantial chassis reinforcing. The Gordini engine has a race cam and has been enlarged from 1255cc to 1296cc.

The car came to the UK in in the early 2000s, and is well-known to the Alpine Owners Club. Granted FIA papers in 2007 it was then campaigned in hillclimbs and sprints, including the Brighton Speed Trials and events at Prescott, Goodwood and in the Channel Islands. In 2012 the car was withdrawn from active competition and an engine rebuild and full body restoration was carried out, before the current owner (a classic car mechanic) bought it as a partly completed project.

The Alpine has subsequently been professionally re-trimmed.

1979 Formula Two March 792 - NOW SOLD - NOW SOLD -
23/05/2017

Ground effects came to Formula Two in 1979, and that year's European Championship was won by Marc Surer in the works March 792 BMW. Although not universally successful the 792 was popular with customers and 32 were sold by the factory. Most of these competed with BMW engines, but several were powered by Hart 420R and one ran with a Cosworth BD.

This chassis is the Marlboro liveried Tiga Racing car in which Eje Elgh won the 1979 Gran Premio del Mediterraneo and finished ninth overall in the championship, powered by a BMW engine.

More recently this lovely example has been used in speed events, and it is now fitted with a low mileage alloy blocked Cosworth BDG 2.0 on DTA management, producing 289 BHP at 8,900 rpm. This engine has only been used for two seasons of hillclimbing since a comprehensive rebuild at Ridgeway Race Engines. The car also benefits from a recent Simpson exhaust system, freshly rebuilt Konis and a bulletproof Hewland FG 400 gearbox. It has an excellent tub and very smart repainted bodywork.

Complete with slicks and wets on rims, spare nose and winglets and parts to convert the gearbox back to 5 speed. An immaculate and well known car on the Midland hills which could readily be converted for circuit use.

1984 Pilbeam MP53 Turbo - NOW SOLD -
24/03/2017

Manufactured in 1984 the MP53 was the first honeycomb chassis by Pilbeam and was also fitted with pushrod suspension. This was a very advanced car for its time, and weighed in at only 508kg.

Chassis number MP53 -04 was a double Hillclimb Championship winner with many FTD’s in the hands of Martyn Griffiths and Max Harvey. The Hart engine was subsequently developed and turbocharged in line with current F1 practice. The car continued to compete successfully in the hands of Martyn Griffiths, and in turbo form finished second overall in 1988 British Hillclimb Championship, narrowly missing out on an overall win. Tim Thompson then ran the car in 1989, finishing third overall in British Championship and winning the Harewood Championship.

Having been stored in component form for many years, MP53-04 was fully rebuilt by Barrie Lines from 2007, with a complete photographic record of each stage. This included an engine rebuild by Ray Buckley who worked on Hart turbo engines in period. The car was converted from Zytek to DTA ignition and a new intercooler was fitted to to be on the safe side (original pipework with car to revert to original if required). Turbo work and wastegate rebuilt by Turbo Technics and the engine was run in and dyno’d by Aldon Automotive. In period the engine ran a higher boost and produced 450 bhp. In its current set up the engine was dynoed at 380 bhp at 5/6 psi boost pressure.

The car was also resprayed and decaled in its period livery. Set up by Ian Dayson and has covered very little mileage since rebuild. On the button and complete with a useful spares package including slicks and wets on Pilbeam rims.

1991 SPA Judd - NOW SOLD -
10/02/2017

Recognised as one of the most powerful sports racers ever to have competed in speed events, the SPA Judd is a fabulous piece of engineering which started life as a 2.8 litre Hart powered car in the early 90s. Original owner David Render used the car in hills and sprints before selling it on to Ferrari & Lancia enthusiast Christian Mineeff. Christian then had the car completely reworked and converted to F1 power with a 3.5 litre Judd CV power plant. Aero developments by Gould Engineering in the late 1990s made this car the fastest sports racer on the hills bar none. Subsequently owned by Matthew Harrison and Chris Cannell, the car has most recently been campaigned with some success by Tom Brown and Steve Cunningham. Powered by a mighty ex Leyton House Judd CV 3.5 litre F1 engine, which still runs F1 cams and sounds utterly superb!

Following successful outings in 2013/14 the car was taken to Group C specialists Xtec, who carried out a full chassis up rebuild of the car, complete gearbox rebuild and a full top end rebuild on the Judd. Only used on one occasion since, the car has been carefully stored and regularly run up since and is ready for the forthcoming season.

Complete with three sets of wheels and used tyres, remote starter, pre-heater, spare gear rations, a set of straight through pipes and everything you need to run the car. It also has a PC with data-logging and an old style MSA Competition Log Book.

Your chance to own an awesome piece of hillclimbing history!

May split if sufficient interest.
