Silverstone Auctions Delivers On Classic And Competition Car Sale

Exceptional achievements included a fully restored 1962 Aston Martin DB4 Series IV Saloon, which went under the hammer to rounds of applause at £170,000 and above its top estimate. A further Aston Martin, a 1960 DB4 Series II Saloon, achieved its top estimate of £100,000 and there was plenty of excitement over a 1974 Ferrari Dino 246 GT that eventually sold for £95,500: all to room bidders. Opening with automobilia items under the governance of auctioneer Guy Loveridge, over 75% of lots from race-worn helmets to club badges, books and posters were sold, with some exceptional results including an Ayrton Senna–signed copy of his book, ‘The Principles of Race Driving’, which sold for £1,420 and well above the top estimate of £180. James Hunt’s 1967 Austin A35 van was a closely-bid contest in the room to achieve £13,000, while Hunt’s Formula One car, Hesketh chassis 308/2 was sold by private treaty prior to auction for a “substantial sum”. Other ‘one-offs’ included a Messerschmitt bubble car and a stunning condition 1957 Volkswagen Deluxe Beetle that sold in the room at £17,500. Opening the competition car lots was a rally-prepared 1962 Mini Cooper Mk1, which created enthusiastic bidding to eventually achieve £21,500, with other sales including the 1961 Deep Sanderson 301 Prototype going to a ‘phone bidder, a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro Racing Saloon making £43,000, and a 1986 Argo JM19 Group C Racer reaching £63,500 with a room bidder, just moments before the Silverstone Classic Group C race started outside on track.  “We are very pleased to report the conclusion of the Silverstone Classic auction with over £1.3 million of automobile lots sold, 75% of automobilia entries, and some further deals under negotiation,” said Silverstone Auctions managing director Nick Whale. “There was an excellent atmosphere and a lot of very keen buyers, with some serious competition for particular cars. The Silverstone Classic event is the perfect environment for such a sale with many buyers already on site, but we were also joined by a number of ‘phone and on-line bidders, who won some important cars. The Wing building provides an incredible facility within which to present our clients’ cars and create a world class auction environment, and we look forward to building on this success next year.

For Sale 1957 STUDEBAKER GOLDEN HAWK Supercharged -- BEAUTIFUL ...

FOR SALE: A GORGEOUS 1957 STUDEBAKER GOLDEN HAWK SUPERCHARGED!! THIS CAR IS PART OF MY LATE DAD'S VAST COLLECTION OF ANTIQUE COLLECTOR CARS. I AM NOT A CAR EXPERT AT ALL. SINCE LISTING THIS CAR, I HAVE BEEN INFORMED BY YOUR PANEL OF COLLECTORS THAT EVEN THOUGH WHEN MY FATHER BOUGHT THIS CAR, IT WAS REPRESENTED TO HIM AS BEING "FULLY RESTORED," YOU PANEL OF COLLECTORS HAVE ADVISED ME THAT IT IS PROBABLY AN OLDER RESTORATION. IT STARTS RIGHT UP AND RUNS LIKE A TOP!! WE ARE SELLING THIS CAR FOR $46,000 OBO. THE CAR IS LOCATED IN NORTH TEXAS. THE CAR IS A STUDEBAKER 289 V-8 with a McCullock Supercharger producing 275 horsepower. In it's day, the Golden Hawk was compared with the Chrysler 300B, Ford Thunderbird and Chevrolet Corvette. 0 to 60 MPH was 7.8 and top speeds as 125 miles per hour. The Golden Hawk was one of the very first "muscle cars" As the final years of Studebaker, now Studebaker-Packard were coming to end, this design combined with state of the art engineering produced a magnificent statement for the company that started out making Conestoga Wagons. THANKS FOR EVERYONE'S ADVICE ON THE "FULLY RESTORED," CONDITION OF THIS CAR. IT WAS REPRESENTED TO MY DAD AS BEING "FULLY RESTORED," BUT SINCE I AM NOT A COLLECTOR OR ANY KIND OF EXPERT ON COLLECTOR CARS, I JUST PUT IN THE DESCRIPTION WHAT WAS ON A DESCRIPTION PAPER THAT CAME WITH THE CAR. IT DID SAY THAT IT WAS "FULLY RESTORED." ANYWAY, I HAVE REVISED MY DESCRIPTION ACCORDINGLY. Sherry states quite honestly that she isn't an old car person.... and I respect that. However, she might want to seek some objective advice from a qualified collector car appraisal service to establish the true condition of each of her late Dad's cars and their current pricing range, given the quality and accuracy of the restoration work done. Or, she simply might want to take the cars to one of the larger auctions. Branson is coming up again in October, I believe. Nothing like a well-advertised, well-attended old car auction to come up with the current market pricing (with the exception of the weird stuff that seems to happen at B-J and some of the other Arizona auctions!). John Good idea, but our knowledge of Studebakers would fit on a pin head! Our car museum in Canfield is open to the public every Saturday from 10 AM to 3 PM - Free admission. If coming from out of town, call ahead and we can usually get you in (except Mondays and Fridays).
