Thoroughbred & Classic Car magazines – SOLD

Approximately 500 copies from the very first year of issue 1973 onwards.

Originally called Classic Cars, then became Thoroughbred & Classic Cars, then changed back more recently.

I have almost every issue through to 2020. And more than 12 for many years.

Almost 100 copies from 1973-1980 (only 3 issues were published in 1973).

There are some additional magazines they put out and double copies some months for different markets. There’s also a lot of supplements, calendars, cards, etc, they published.

These are all in good condition. All can be seen, stacked by year.

I don’t want to sell separately (please don’t ask), so the whole lot is available at a price way under market value. Really early copies sell individually for upwards of $20 each. Would cost a fortune to buy individually. I can send a comprehensive list if you want.

Just $300.00, no offers thanks. Need them out of the way…

1967 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 2+2 – SOLD

Every enthusiast should have an E-Type at some point – the car Enzo Ferrari claimed was the most beautiful car ever made.

This manual 4.2 car was one of the 80 percent sent new to the USA and arrived in Perth in 2012 as a project. The owner undertook a major restoration of all aspects of the car. A vast amount of parts were sourced from around the globe for this work.

Notable is the special custom-made Jaguar 5-speed gearbox and ancillaries (which suits beautifully). The engine, electricals, interior, bodywork all received attention. It was converted to right-hand-drive – straightforward with no cutting and welding on an E-Type. Air conditioning was also fitted. The car was finished in 2017.

The proud owner used the E-Type as his everyday car after completing it until he passed away. It picked up some parking marks and the exterior shows several blemishes. Inside, in the boot and engine bay are all very good. There’s even a beautifully made custom-fitted tool box matching the boot trim.

The Jaguar starts well, runs very nicely, sounding great… The gearbox works so much nicer than the original. The car has a nice, tight feel on the road.

Due to the paintwork blemishes and that it’s a non-matching numbers car it is being marketed at a very realistic price, giving a broader group of enthusiasts the opportunity to enjoy E-Type ownership.

Documentation and manuals go with the car as do the plates 1967 XKE if bought by a WA buyer.

1982 Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit – SOLD

The Silver Spirit model brought Rolls-Royce into the 1980s with a modern and improved design. It featured the smooth 6750cc V8 engine, a very high level of luxury and Rolls-Royce’s famous build quality.

This car was delivered new in Essex, England and after a few years found its way to Western Australia. It’s finished in a very regal colour combination of dark blue metallic paintwork with rich red interior. The car features the attractive and rare option of factory alloy wheels.

The car had a two long-term owners in Perth. Two years ago it found a new owner, with the intention of using the Silver Spirit for wedding work, in an idea which ultimately didn’t eventuate. The car was inspected for wedding car use and passed without any issues.

The owner advises that everything works as it should. There are a few minor cosmetic issues externally, not uncommon on a 40-year-old car. It should be noted that the underside and structure of the car is rust free otherwise the car would not have passed the recent pit inspection for registration. The most recent inspection was six months ago.

Inside, the car is lovely, plush and comfortable with beautiful polished woodwork throughout. With power seats, zone-adjustable climate control air conditioning, plush leather seats and the typical Rolls-Royce ‘wafting’ driving, this is a very luxurious and well-equipped car even by today’s standards.

There is a book set with the car in its original compendium, however the service booklet has not been stamped. A quantity of receipts for work done go with the car.

With power seats, zone-adjustable climate control air conditioning, plush leather seats and the typical Rolls-Royce ‘wafting’ driving, this is a very luxurious and well-equipped car even by today’s standards.

The owner is realistic about car values and the car is priced to sell. This Silver Spirit is not a concours trailer queen, but a sound, nicely kept example in which everything works, that offers tremendous value.

1978 TVR Taimar – SOLD

This rare TVR coupe features an upgraded Ford V6 motor, providing excellent performance in the lightweight fibreglass 2-seater body.

The Taimar was a hatchback version of the successful M-series, building on the many benefits the series offered. This car was in fact the company demonstrator and appeared on the cover of a TVR magazine in 1979. It is believed that only two Taimars were finished in this colour scheme.

395 Taimars were produced between 1976 and 1979.

In 1984 Specialized Engines Ltd installed a high performance 3.1-litre engine with competition heads and cams in the Taimar. The car has been fitted with a set of genuine Wolfrace alloy wheels, in the design which was optional at the time the car was built.

The current owner bought the car two years ago from a British auction house, the owners of which are known to the buyer. He had wanted a TVR since childhood and after searching Australia for a good car without success, bought this car in England. After arrival some minor items were brought up to spec for Australian registration, it passed the comprehensive compliance inspection and was licensed in 2022. The owner applied for and received the same number plates the car had worn in its time as a factory demonstrator.

The attractive light interior colour and Webasto sunroof mean there’s no feeling of claustrophobia inside. The car is fitted with a wood-rim Moto Lita steering wheel.

This Taimar runs very nicely, with grunty power delivery, quick steering and tight handling. It offers huge fun driving characteristics accentuated by a sporty exhaust note.

There is a large quantity of historical documentation with the car. Included is an Owners Handbook, autographed by Martin Lilley (TVR company owner at the time). Also on file are original brochures (some showing TVR 22), a spare parts catalogue, old MOT certificates, invoices for work done. In more recent documentation are the import approval papers and invoices.

A small quantity of parts go with the car. The 81,400 miles shown on the odometer is understood to be accurate.

It is believed there are only three other Taimars in Australia. These cars offer a unique classic style, rarity and performance.

1982 Mercedes-Benz 280SL – SOLD

A late version of the classic R107 series, this car presents as one of the most immaculate examples you’ll ever see. Delivered new in the UK, it soon moved to Thailand, after which its Australian owners brought it home.

With a fuel-injected 6-cylinder motor, the car was highly-specified new, and has Bundt alloy wheels, front spoiler, full wood interior (not just the console), air conditioning, etc.

Before arriving in Australia, the owners had chauffeur-driven cars so the cherished SL saw little use. By the end of 2008 it had done just 9755 miles. They kept it until 2009 when it was sold to a well-known Melbourne collector.

The present owner bought the car in 2015 and today, it’s covered just 70,000km, verifiable by the details in two full files of the car’s history. He’s added a reversing camera and satnav (screens hidden in the glovebox) and a rear seat.

The car is in immaculate condition throughout and drives beautifully. It’s genuinely a rare opportunity to get a pristine R107 – and at a reasonable price.

1937 Buick Business Coupe Straight-Eight – SOLD

A stylish big coupe powered by a wonderful straight-eight engine, this car was imported over a decade ago to join a large collection with quite a few Buicks among them. It had already been restored and it’s easy to see why the Buick appealed to its Australian buyer.

With glossy cream coloured paintwork and wide white sidewall tyres it’s a very smart looking example. Registered on club license the car saw some use, along with the owner’s many other cars. However, three years ago he unexpectedly passed away. His family has been thinning-out the collection and this magnificent Buick Coupe is now for sale.

While Buicks were assembled in Australia in the 1930s, the very stylish body design of this car was not made here, so few of this stylish model exist in this country.

The car has recently been recommissioned after its rest period, needing a new starter motor, but otherwise just a service and tune-up. It starts instantly and runs smoothly, as you’d expect. In its day, the straight-eight Buick was the fastest mass production car made in the USA.

It offers a rare opportunity. If you’re interested, please request a detailed description and set of photos by email, from paul@classicrally.com.au
