The Porsche 911 Carrera RSR was introduced in 1973 with a 2.8 litre engine and was a development of the highly acclaimed RS Sport Lightweight, a homologated road car aimed at drivers who planned to use the car for occasional motor sport. The RSR, on the other hand made no attempt at being daily transportation, and was aimed specifically at racing teams who wanted an ‘off the shelf’ racer to compete at the highest level including FIA Group 4 long distance endurance racing and Le Mans. Only 49 of the 2.8 litre engined cars were produced as factory built customer racing cars, making them some of the rarest Porsches ever made.
who had raced RSRs in period for Porsche Cars GB, it won the Tour Espania in 2006, and later went on to win the Tour Britannia in 2008 and again in 2010.More recently the car has been refreshed by Mike Bainbridge who rebuilt the engine in 2012, and receipts are included for all these works including an engine spec sheet and a list of parts used. At the time of the engine rebuild he also rebuilt the gearbox fitting new Guard Transmission components, a complete new gear cluster, new crown wheel and pinion and a new Guard limited slip differential, and again invoices for these parts are included in the cars paperwork.
The Porsche you see today was originally a factory supplied LHD, 1975, 2.7MFi Carrera. It was later used as the perfect basis to build a Porsche to FIA RSR specification in 1996. This rebuild was carried out at great expense and with exceptional detail by HS Racing in Switzerland. The engine was originally built by Heini Schneebit using high butterfly injection, twin coils and all the usual RSR type mods used by Porsche to produce around 300bhp. Bilstein suspension was fitted on all corners and the car is fitted with 930 Turbo large front brakes. Well known in competition, and a competitive car in the hands of well known Porsche racer Nick Faure,
Currently set up more for circuit racing than road rallies, the car has seen minimal usage since its mechanical refresh and as such is presented in very good condition all round. Accompanying the car is an old set of FIA/HTP papers as well as period German literature from the time of the car’s import, along with invoices for much of the work undertaken on this fabulous Porsche.

In November 1958, the Cooper Car Company launched the T49 MkI as the successor to the successful ‘Bobtail’. Featuring the coventry Climax two litre engine, all aluminium bodywork and a notorious short wheel base, it was regarded as amazingly low and light for the period and was very successful straight away on track, notably in the capable hands of Sir Stirling Moss. This 2 litre Cooper Monaco Mk I is an extremely well presented car with an illustrious past. Currently raced by rapid and noted Gentleman driver, Graeme Dodd, it has been successfully driven by him to two BRDC Sportscar Championships as well as numerous Goodwood podiums and race wins around Europe. Raced in the early 1990s by Jeffrey Pattinson in extensive VSCC and HGPCA meetings, he went on to claim the BRDC 1950’s Sportscar Champioship before selling the car to ex-BTCC Champion and legend, Frank Sytner, who continued the cars winning ways in Europe and at the Goodwood Revival meeting until 2002. At this point it was acquired by another noted BRDC legend, Ted Williams, who raced the car successfully at the Macau Grand-Prix meeting, as well as

1953 Turner 1.5 litre Sports Racing Car - Chassis 006
The SILVERSTONE CL A SSIC COMPETITION CAR SALE
www.silverstoneauctions.com
Here we have one of just 7 cars built by Turner Sports Cars between 1950 and 1954, one being an F2 car and the others sports cars. This example is chassis number 006 and was built in 1952 and first road registered in 1953. It was originally purchased by Wilfred McDougall of Wolverhampton, who raced it at a number of different circuits and hill climbs around the UK during the mid 1950s, including Silverstone, Brands Hatch, Mallory Park, Oulton Park, Shelsley Walsh, Castle Combe and Charterhall in Scotland. Turner 006’s full race history is still to be fully researched but race programmes in the history file for this early period of the car’s life include: Charterhall International in August 1953, Castle Combe in April 1954, Brands Hatch BRSCC and International in May 1955 and August 1954 respectively and Silverstone in August 1954. Although no evidence at this stage has been found linking 006 to Goodwood, it is interesting to note that two of its sister cars (Chassis 003/JDA 555 and Chassis 004/MAB 121) did race at Goodwood in period. An extensive history file and photo album documents a great deal of 006’s history in what has been a fascinating life for this rare British sports racing car.

It is also worth noting that a Kieft Turner competed in the 1956 Mille Miglia, so it is possible that Turner 006 could be considered for the current iteration of the rally, of course at the discretion of the event organisers.

Founded in 1977 by Sir Frank Williams and Sir Patrick Head, Williams Grand Prix Engineering Ltd. are a successful Formula One motor racing team and constructor. Winners of nine Formula One constructors championships and seven drivers championships their track record speaks for itself. Between 1995 and 1999 Williams designed, built and ran the works Renault Laguna entries in the British Touring Car Championship. Things started well, with the team taking the manufacturer’s championship in their first year 1995, although 1997 was their best season by far, when they took 15 out of the 24 races and both the drivers and manufacturer’s championships. Those were heady days when most of the cars on the grid cost over £1m to build and budgets of £3-5m to run each car for a season were not uncommon. Of all the manufacturer built cars in this period - it was the Williams Renault that was the most highly regarded.

This car, chassis no.99/04, was the last ever chassis built and was prepared for ex F1 driver, Jean-Christophe Bouillon, to race alongside multiple champion, Jason Plato for the 1999 season. Nescafe were the main sponsors, and the cars were both distinctive and quick. Jason Plato secured an outright win for them during the ‘99 season, but ultimately Renault had decided to switch their focus back to Formula One and consequently pulled out at the end of the year. Currently, this car is a highly competitive entrant in the HSCC Super Touring Car championship and runs against similar period cars from Vauxhall, Peugeot, Nissan and Ford. Scoring regular podium finishes in 2014/15 the car is offered ready to race, some guidance in running the car will be freely available and a small spares package is included.

1979 Ford Capri Grp 1 - Ex Gordon Spice
Registration: Not Specified Chassis Number: CC10 Engine Number: N/A Year of Manufacture: 1979 Estimate (£): 75,000 - 90,000
Helped by the success of his Motor Sport and Performance Car accessory business (run with his brother Derek), Gordon Spice became an established racing driver from the late 60s, through the 70s and 80s in saloons and Group C. A veteran of 14 Le Mans races and 4 FIA C2 World Championship titles, he raced over 70 different cars during his long career. From 1986 onwards he designed and built a range of Group C Spice Engineering cars that enjoyed unrivalled success internationally in endurance events, World Sportscar Racing and latterly IMSA GT. When our vendor purchased this Capri he was naturally curious about its history and his research lead to the understanding that this may have been the ‘Autocar’ Capri, chassis CC10. A letter on file confirms that Gordon Spice has inspected the car, and after a phone call to Dave Cook of CC Racing confirming some key identifying marks, our vendor is confident that this is their 1979 car, CC10, and the car now proudly displays a stamped chassis plate to this effect.

Although it went well and was a lot of fun, he is a purist and a former racing driver of some note, so decided he would like to return the car, as far as possible, to its 1979 specification. A lot of the original Group 1 parts (brakes, body panels, tailgate, windows and bumpers) were supplied from the previous vendor which made the task a little easier. The car comes complete with a large quantity of Group 2 parts, spare rims, the appropriate Capri Homologation Papers, regs for the RAC British Saloon Car Championship 1979/1980 and, most generously, a number of Gordon Spice’s trophies from the car’s winning years. It also comes with professional set up sheets and data from back in the day, as well as period photographs and a spare engine. A wonderful opportunity to own a racing Capri with great history that would be welcome at any Historic Motor Sport event (a potential entry for the Goodwood Members Meeting ) and will quickly gather a crowd in any paddock.

For the privateer in the mid 1970s who wanted to go sports car racing, and in particular compete successfully at the famed 24 Hours of Le Mans, there was really only one viable option, the Porsche RSR. Introduced in 1973, the RSR was a factory built racing car based on the 911 chassis. These were not converted road cars, but rather purpose built competition models, designed and built from the ground up for serious racing use. In 1974, the factory made significant changes to the car including a new 3.0 litre engine, wider wheels with centre lock hubs and improved aerodynamics. The result was a car that would dominate the GT category and challenge for overall wins around the world for years to come. Finished in White with classic Martini Racing Livery, we are informed by the vendor that this particular car began life as a German market 3.0 Carrera before being converted in the 1980s to a full 3.0 RSR race car. During its current ownership, it has raced in both the 70’s Masters series and World Sports Cars and is currently also eligible for various historic racing events. In 2014, the engine was completely rebuilt by AWS Engineering at considerable expense, the build including new rings, new bearings, new valves, new rod bolts

The Ferrari 360 Challenge is a race focused development of the hugely popular Ferrari 360 Modena road car. The 360 Challenge was a significantly modified, non-road legal car, originally conceived with Ferrari’s popular racing series the ‘Ferrari Challenge’ in mind. When the car was first introduced, Ferrari claimed that the 360 Challenge boasted a quicker acceleration time of 3.9s from 0-62mph along with substantially better cornering ability over the standard road car unsurprisingly as a result of its enhanced racing suspension and brakes. Purchased by our vendor in 2012 from GT Cup regular, Mick Dwane, this car had been campaigned in the Ferrari Challenge in 2003 and 2004 and Mick had raced it in 2010 and 2011 in the Pirelli Ferrari Open as well. The condition of this car appealed to our vendor as it had never sustained any accident damage, chassis damage or corrosion. At the time of his purchase in 2012, the engine had been rebuilt by Graypaul Ferrari Nottingham and the power had been increased by fitting a Stradale inlet tract and uprating the exhaust. There are dyno sheets showing a power increase to 442bhp at 8,300rpm and 325 ft. lbs torque at 5,800rpm. Original 360 challenge figures are 410bhp at

Named after its founder Vincenzo “Enzo” Osella, the team began life by racing Abarth sports cars in local and national races in the mid 1960s in Italy. Though relatively successful (Osella eventually took over the factory Abarth sports car program), Osella expanded into single seater racing in 1974 to further develop his business. The team would rise to Formula Two in 1975, achieving some success with its own car (the Osella FA2); François Migault scored one point. They also competed in sports car racing producing some of the most competitive and prettiest two litre cars ever produced.

The process took nearly two years and the first outing at Brands Hatch (2011 HSCC MARTINI) when running a very respectable 4th, fuel pressure problems halted any further progress. In 2013 two races were entered at Donington producing a win and the chance of another while leading till loose bodywork prevented a double. In 2014 four races were entered in the HSCC MARTINI and it won all four. The very highly respected Ian Flux proclaimed this Osella was the best 2.0 litre sports car he had ever driven!
The Osella PA3 BMW M12 offered here was purchased by Colin Pool, who was responsible for nearly all the Osellas in the country, from Francesco Molina of Pescaro in the early nineties. Like many Osellas of the period, it was used initially for hill climbing but did compete in the 1976 Monza 4hrs finishing 11th overall. Chassis PA029 resided with him until 2011 when it was purchased by our vendor who set about a comprehensive rebuild. It was decided to commission a new tub which was built by Martin Slater of Lyncar and a new replacement engine was purchased from Wassermann. Every other component was either

With the Lotus 14 of 1959 - better known as the Elite - Colin Chapman demonstrated that his skills as a racing car designer and constructor could just as easily be applied to production road cars. The classically shaped body was extremely aerodynamic thanks to the pen of Frank Costin and was one of the leading factors in the Elite being incredibly successful on, as well as off the track! The Elite was a class winner across the globe in International Motor races, notably at Le Mans where it won its class 5 times! This particular car, chassis 1947 was delivered in 1962 as a Series 2 Super 95 car. The Super 95 was a car that enjoyed more power from an engine that had a higher level of tune, with raised compression and a fiercer camshaft with 5 bearings. Very little is known about the early history of the car however, it is likely that it was a car supplied for fast road use. By the 80s, however, with historic racing becoming more fashionable the car was converted into full racing specification. The car has been raced extensively across Europe ever since and has become well known in the historic paddock as one of the most

Elva, whose name is derived from the French phrase “elle va” (she goes) was founded in 1955 by Frank Nichols in Bexhill, Surrey. Nichols always took the approach that it was better to sell racing cars than race them himself. However, it was the Mk 7, introduced in 1962, that enjoyed success on both sides of the pond. Porsche supplied engines to Elva, a rare instance of the German firm supplying another manufacturer, and a Porsche-engined Mk7 took a debut win in the 1963 Road Atlanta race, one of the most important on the American calendar. In Europe Herbert Muller drove a Mk 7 to 2nd place in the European Hill Climb Championship whilst Tony Lanfranchi regularly beat the Lotus 23s and Brabham BT8s en route to the 1964 Autosport Championship. The Elva Mk 7 was the best under 2 litre sports car of its day but despite this, it is believed that only 29 were produced over a 2 year period. This car, chassis 023 was originally supplied through Carl Haas to Jim Rahal, part of the Rahal racing dynasty. Driven in SCCA and club events by his father, the car has been described by ex F1 driver and Indy legend Bobby as the car that ignited his passion for motor racing.

Riley & Scott Mk III. Chassis WSC 95-03 The Riley & Scott Mark III was a Sports Prototype initially designed by Bob and Bill Riley and Mark Scott of Riley & Scott Cars Inc. to compete in the WSC category of the IMSA GT Championship for the ‘94 season. However, it was to be 1995 before the first Mark III was completed. This Mk III, chassis number 95-03 was presumably the third car produced and was originally delivered to, and run by Payne Racing in mid 1995. In its first season, the car was entered into 6 IMSA races with a best result of 4th at Mosport, but went on to complete the entire 1996 season with a solid 5th position at the Daytona 24 hours and achieved its best result of 2nd in Texas. The Italian team “Target 24” later bought the car, running it again at the Daytona 24 in 1997. Following engine problems, the decision was made to change from the original Oldsmobile V8, to a Chevrolet. After competing in one final race in the States that year, the vehicle was shipped back to Europe for the 1998 ISRS Championship, where it raced for most of the season, plus an outing at the Vallelunga Gold Cup, and achieved a creditable 3rd at the Le Mans Bugatti Circuit.

Once they had dealt with the engine’s gremlins, the car was once again reliable but, regrettably, it wasn’t to be raced regularly as the new owners now had other commitments. Following an extensive rebuild in 2003, the car has been carefully kept in the owners unit, where it has been moved around to keep everything free, the engine regularly run-up and the transmission taken through several heat cycles. The car comes complete with 3 sets of spare rims and several sets of gear ratios, however, a large spares package, including a spare engine, is available with this car by separate negotiation.

Warranties All lots are sold on an ‘as seen’ basis. You may wish to bring a competent mechanic with you to inspect any Motor Vehicles on your behalf. The catalogue will describe the lots to the best of our ability on information supplied. You should, however, satisfy yourself as to the condition, age, and integrity of any lot prior to bidding as no warranties whatsoever are given in relation to any lot. Once the auctioneer drops the hammer a contract is made and you are obligated to proceed with the purchase. It is therefore vital that you are satisfied with the condition of the lot you intend to bid upon before doing so. Charges

SAL has the right at its sole discretion to refuse any bid, to divide any Lot, to combine two or more Lots, to withdraw any Lot and, in the case of dispute, to put any Lot up for Auction again. If SAL is notified about the Seller’s alleged breach of any of the Terms before it has remitted the Sale Proceeds to the Seller, it may at its sole discretion withhold payment until that dispute is resolved. SAL may, however, deduct any sums that are due to it from the sum held. Loss or injury SAL shall be under no liability for any injury, damage or loss sustained by any person while on SAL’s premises (including any premises where a sale may be conducted or where a Lot, or part of a Lot, may be on view from time to time) except for death or personal injury, damage or loss caused by the negligence of or other breach of duty by SAL, its employees or agents in the ordinary course of their duties to SAL. Lots The Catalogue contains details about each Lot. The description printed in the Catalogue is given on behalf of the Seller, and may contain SAL’s opinion about the Lot, but in any event is not a contractual representation or warranty by SAL. Photographs, Illustrations and diagrams contained in the Catalogue are for identification purposes only. They may not show the true condition and colour, (which may be inaccurately reproduced) of the Lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the Sale and it is for any potential bidder to satisfy themselves as to each and every aspect of a Lot, including its authorship, condition, provenance, history, background, authenticity, style, period, age, suitability, quality, roadworthiness (if relevant), origin, value and estimated selling price (including the Hammer Price). Each Lot is sold by its respective Seller to the Buyer. Lots are sold to the Buyer on an “as is” basis, with all faults and imperfections. The actual condition of a Lot may not be as good as that appears by its outward appearance. In particular, parts may have replaced or renewed and Lots may not be authentic or of satisfactory quality; the inside of a Lot may not be visible and may not be original or may be damaged, as for example where it is covered by upholstery or material. Given the age of many Lots they may have been damaged and/or repaired and you should not assume that a Lot is in good condition. Any person who physically interferes with, scratches or damages the Lot in any way (at, before or after the Auction) will be held liable for the loss so caused.
