Late consignments have significantly increased the catalogue for the H&H classic car auction at the Imperial War Museum, Duxford on 19^th June giving an even better opportunity to invest your pounds before they’re worth even less.

Undoubted star of the auction, the 1957 RHD AC Ace Bristol (forerunner of the Shelby Cobra) has been in the same family for 20 years. Originally exported to St Lucia, it has a Bristol BS1 Mk3 race engine, fully independent suspension, disc brakes and underwent a fully documented restoration. It is eligible for some of the world’s greatest motoring events and has a history of success in them. The estimate is £220,000 to £260,000.

This RHD 1995 Ferrari 456 is a rare manual version showing 55,000 miles.

It is estimated at £38,000 to £45,000 so surely a good place to invest your rapidly depreciating Pounds Sterling.

Complete with retractable glass division and two folding occasional rear seats this James Young bodied 1937 Rolls-Royce Phantom III Sports Saloon has a retractable glass division and twin folding occasional seats. Only 727 Phantom IIIs are thought to have been built over three years from 1936 to 1939. Its 7,340cc ohv V12 was fabricated largely from aluminium alloy boasted a seven-bearing crankshaft, eight-bearing camshaft, hydraulic tappets and dual downdraught Stromberg carburettors. Effortlessly potent and eerily smooth, it gave most variants a 100mph top speed. This Phantom III Sports Saloon has been in the current ownership since 1996 when much good restoration work was carried out by the owner, including replacement of sections of the ash framework. It then ‘rested’ for 23 years in a barn, but now this grand machine is ready for its next owner to continue the restoration process. It is estimated at £45,000 to £55,000. 

There is a total of 117 very desirable lots in the sale.
