WE ARE OPEN AND NOW IS THE TIME TO HAVE ALL YOUR WORK CARRIED OUT, SO THESE SALE CARS ARE AT, OR WELL BELOW THEIR COST TO ME. I’m very dealable! www.barriecartermg.com Triumph 2000 MK II Estate. I’ve seldom seen car that looks like it’s just come out of the showroom as this does, Not only pristine top, but underneath too, It shows 47,000 miles and is fitted with Power Steering, so us older gentry don’t get tired arms, Interior is in reddish brown and Mint, Exterior is likewise and you’ll never find another like this. £9,750 1936 Morris Eight Tourer. This absolutely beautiful car has had only two owners and has been fully restored by it’s last owner of 29 years. I don’t think you’ll find another one like this. £11,995 MG YB Saloon Still they emerge! MG YB, the rarer of the forgotten MG. 3 owners, 1 for 40 years and owner history from new. It has never been restored and is still wearing its original and very nice paint. Being interred for so long it has missed the ravages of time and has no apparent rust problems on its very straight original body. The interior, always a problem with “Y’s” is intact and only needs cleaning. The carpets are very original and the sunroof water tight. Excellent chrome and square tyres make this the barn slumberer of the year. Unrepeatable and complete with dust £8,950 Saab 99 2 litre with only 33,000 miles and 3 owners, Absolutely unmarked body that is in as new, unrestored gorgeous condition, the interior is as faultless as the rest of this rare RHD beauty, A Treasure that has never been restored and is lovely. £8,999 My 1932 Lanchester L10 is a gem that I’ve been meaning to finish for myself to use. It appears to have only 32,000 miles on it and there are various supporting facts to this including a large folder of dedicated service history. It’s barakes have been attended to, radiator recored, and dash beautifully refubished with the correct instruments. It needs the rewiring finishing and has a new loom fitted, a small job. It drives well and sweetly, stops good too. The interior is sumpmtuous red leather and all origional. Its body had surface paint disturbance, but I wouldn’t touch it, it’s part of its charm. I love it. Hope you do. £7250 TC Racer Although there has been much interest in my ex-championship and well known T.C. race car, I don’t want the part xs offered. It is already very cheap and has so many rare and expensive parts I’m not giving it away. L.S.D. Derrington inlet and ex. manifolds, 13/4 50s vented brakes, trampbars, telescopics, alloy panels, 72 spoke 16” wheels, Avon ZZR. To build this would cost £50k but it’s a proven car. It can be sold as a rolling chassis all complete but less engine, or with a less modified engine or whatever combination you wish. It’s very cheap and will give you lots of fun, road or competition. Ring for a price Lancia Appia 1960 RHD. This superbly restored Car is a 4 door pillar less replica of the same car as competed in the Acropolis Rallye in 1960, It has had £ thousands spent making it the superb example you see, Luxurious red leather trim, All the required navigation equipment, Drives free and flowingly, I doubt there’s a better one anywhere. Enormous amount of boxed history and receipts, Gorgeous, £19,995 - May Part/ Ex for something tasty. My MGA race car. This fully prepared virtual FIA exchampionship winning race car is available as rebuilt for the coming season. It’s 1840cc steel full race engine was sealed by an MSA scrutineer during its build at Sigma and has only rolling road running time. The suspension, straight cut CR gearbox, LSD etc were all rebuilt to the correct specs and the car was repainted at the same time. It handles superbly, especially in the wet. It has had 2 Thoroughbred and Classic Championship wins historically and is capable of winning again in the right hands and with its correct full width screen is elligible for just about every classic race series available. I’m 79 now and the years, aching bones and a promise to my dear late wife, mean I’ll no longer be racing after 55 years. My lovely A needs nothing doing to it and is ready for the next owner to carry on its sucessfull career. It is a UK car, and is road registered with its origional number. £35,000 I may take a part exchange if I like it.
