1964 COMMER COB 7cwt SERIES III

Reg No: 978 TTA

 Chassis number B631888

Engine number B631888

Estimate: £5000 - £6000

The Commer Cob a Rootes Group model was a panel van based on the Hillman Husky estate. The first version of the lightweight commercial appeared in the 1950s. The Cob saw a steady development over ifs production with improvements to the engine, seating and bodywork through Series I II & III. This charming Series III Cob was originally supplied by Blue Star Garages Ltd, Axminster, Devon to its first owner a Mr W Newbury, a farmer from Colyton, Devon. The original order form is on file stating that Mr Newbury paid £452.8.2 plus an allowance of £20 for a part exchange. Mr Newbury retained the car for twenty years adding 20,000 miles to the odometer using the van to transport the odd calf to Axminster market. Mr Newbury’s daughter and son in law then owned the Cob for a short period before part-exchanging it. The next custodian added a further 20,000 miles on the clock until our vendors' father purchased the van in 2005 with 42,000 on the odometer. The Cob had been in storage for six or so years and required some recommissioning and repairs but was soon back on the road. Over the next 14 years, the van was steadily improved but still retains an honest and genuine appearance which has been admired at local classic car events. Now displaying a believed 55,000 miles from new this refreshingly original Cob will be offered for auction with a history file containing an original owners instruction manual, a run of previous MOTs, tax discs, receipts and the original order form.

All lots in this sale are sold as-is and bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding. Please read our terms and conditions.

1968 BRISTOL 410

Registration No: 9888 PJ

Chassis No: 410-7453

Colour: Silver Over Blue

 Bristol has always been an exclusive marque. They have appealed to enthusiasts and connoisseurs who appreciate engineering excellence and that quintessential understated English styling. The 410 is the fourth in the series of the Chrysler V8 engined models, with only 82 of the bespoke Grand Tourers being manufactured between 1968/69. Performance is what Mr Crook would describe as adequate, with a 250 bhp V8 driving through an automatic Torqueflite gearbox affording effortless 100mph plus cruising performance for four in luxury. This particular 410 is finished in dark blue with a silver roof. The interior is trimmed in blue/grey leather with contrasting dark blue carpets and re-veneered dashboard. Our vendor acquired the Bristol in 2007 and in 2008 installed an LPG conversion (receipt on file with a certificate for £1,800) which our vendor says has made the Bristol much more economical to run without any detrimental effect on performance. There is a large history file accompanying the car with historical and more recent receipts for maintenance, noteworthy works carried out include an engine rebuild in 2007 by Queensberry Road Garage for £5,511.05, repairs to inner and outer sills among other works for £4,219.74 in February 2017, amongst numerous other bills. The Bristol is described as a usable car with a certain charm which could be improved with by the next custodian. Subject to an insurance write off in 1989, MOT until September 2020 (although exempt) and tax-exempt
