Bruce Meyers is quoted as saying, “I'm an artist and I wanted to bring a sense of movement and gesture to the Manx. Dune buggies have a message, fun. They’re playful to drive and should look like it. Nothing did at the time.” Sure enough, using a basic Volkswagen chassis and engine, this radical design concept proved an instant hit both in the US and then, later, in Europe.This short wheel base Meyer Manx Evocation is presented in a stunning gold fleck with black leather bucket seats with matching carpets and sitting on American Racing wheels. Boasting a newly rebuild 1641cc twinport engine this left hand drive example was imported from the USA in 2023 and registered in the UK as an historic vehicle. Perfect for the UK summers this example also offers a full wet weather gear with removable hood so you do not get caught in those august showers! Specification on this buggy includes Powerspark electronic ignition distributor, twin cannon exhausts, Scat crank pulley, alternator conversion, US specification lights, Empi gear shifter, deep dish steering wheel, roll over bar, cassette player and speakers and footwell courtesy light. It has recently benefited from a new clutch, new carburettor and all new tinware the rear brakes have been newly refurbished and we are informed it starts, runs and drives great. The front bucket seats are on sliders with removable covers and the passenger seat flips forward for access to rear seat making this a fun almost practical summer option…. TO THE BEACH!

The original 911ST has an interesting history, probably more so due to its genuine competition lineage. During the era of early 911 production, Porsche were continuously developing their road cars for competition, and with great success. Keen to see customers using their cars in the same manner, they created a series of performance accessories that could be ordered directly from the factory to upgrade a standard car either after, or during production. In 1969 a race-oriented version of the 911 was launched known internally as the ST (the name stood for Sport Touring). The original was based on the 911 T with a 2.3 litre engine, whilst the later 2.5 was usually based on the 911S and internally known as the SR, however, most are referred to as a 2.5 ST today.Interestingly, unlike the ‘73 RS that followed, there is no particular defining characteristic for an S/T, each could be made with different combinations of racing components offered by Porsche to suit the intended use. Whether it was for rally or race, your new 911 could be equipped accordingly.S cams would usually be preferred for rallying, whilst peaky 906 cams could be specified for the most powerful short-stroke, twin-plug, fuel-injected 2.5 motors, often producing circa 270BHP+ at 8000 rpm depending on spec and application (track vs rally for example). Impressive stuff for the early Seventies. There were also a number of gearbox options with ratios for different scenarios, as well as plastic and steel fuel tanks, and a host of different other upgrades for racers around the world, and all were detailed together with setup guides for the 911 in the `Sports Purposes` booklet. Sometimes these special components were installed by the factory, and in other cases, they were installed retrospectively by dealers or racing teams. By the early 70s, this allowed privateer teams to compete with effectively works specification cars. Some early examples could be seen sporting Minilite rear wheels instead of the classic 911 Fuchs alloys, and most S/Ts featured a number of thinner steel, aluminium or fibreglass parts to keep weight down, often in different widths and profiles too.That’s what makes it so hard to define an S/T. It’s not a specific set of components, rather a combination of special components. These were race cars that were extensively modified and rebuilt in period without any thought toward their status as future collectables and as such each car is unique. Originally supplied by AFN in the UK, this matching numbers 1971 911T remained in largely original specification but for a restoration in the late 90s, sold to specialist Dave Dennett of DSD Motorwerks in 2010 for conversion into a period specification ST. During the build, any modifications he made were period correct, his aim being to acquire FIA competition papers when completed. This included the steel arches being replicated from period photographs, hand beaten to accommodate 7” x 15” front and 9” x 15” rear wheels, and a lightweight interior being fitted. The original matching numbers engine was retained, however currently fitted, is another engine built from a genuine un- numbered 7R magnesium case. This engine was fully built around these cases to short stroke ST specification. This included the following: Cases shuffle pinned and gas flowed, 2.2 crank 66mm, Porsche S nitride rods, JE pistons, Mahle barrels, twin plug heads with new guides 3 angle valve seat and enlarged ports, titanium valve springs, new race valves, ST twin plug distributor, S specification cams, uprated and rebuilt MFI pump, uprated oil pump, 1”5/8 race headers and lightweight aluminium flywheel. The brakes were upgraded with aluminium RS spec callipers and vented discs all round and period Koni adjustable dampers and uprated roll bars were fitted in addition to the rebuilt suspension. A lightweight clutch was fitted and a Tuthill adjustable pedal box. Wheels are 7×15” refurbished Fuchs on the front and 9”x15” Minilites were fitted on the rear. Also fitted were upgraded Bosch twin fuel pumps, plumbed in fire suppression system and Schroth 5 point harnesses.As is often the case with these projects, it was sold before being totally finished to our vendor in 2019, who has now continued the journey of personalisation to the tune of an additional £150,000, a car than now ‘owes him’ £275,000 and as he states to create this car would be in excess of £350,000 and involve a 2-4 year wait given the names involved in the build.Offered with a history file detailing the build with photographs and documents in a box file full of provenance of the car now and back to the 80’s. The matching numbers 2.2 engine is stored and this and the fibreglass bumper for FIA papers comes with the car, the new owner will need to collect or delivery can be arranged at their cost.The modified Porsche scene is dominated by Singer with its reimagined ST built on a later 964, Tuthill with their interpretation the 911K, in an area that ever popular, enhancing original cars to a period upgraded specification this example sits neatly offering a buyer the opportunity to rub shoulders with the bespoke ‘resto mods’ like Singer. If you are looking for a genuine period car with period `Sports Purposes` upgrades, together with a nicer interior than a stripped-out racer, then this car certainly has a good deal more kudos than a backdated example. If you want to take things a bit more seriously remove the niceties, put the fibreglass panels back on, install a pair of current FIA seats and this car will be ready for the Tour Auto or Modena Cento Ore without the three to four year wait for the build of a car and the expense of over £300k to build the car today. If there was ever having your cake and eating this is it.. Consigned by Mathew Priddy
A GEORGE III GILT BRASS MOUNTED EBONISED TABLE/BRACKET CLOCK MADE FOR THE IBERIAN MARKET ROBERT HIGGS AND DIEGO EVANS, LONDON, CIRCA 1780 The five pillar twin fusee bell striking movement with trip-hour repeat and later anchor escapement regulated by lenticular bob pendulum, the symmetrical foliate scroll engraved backplate signed Higgs y, DIEGO EVANS, Bolsa Real, LONDRES to a central reserve beneath a basket of flowers, the 7 inch brass break-arch dial with calendar aperture and shaped recessed silvered plate further signed Higgs y, DIEGO EVANS, Bolsa Real, LONDRES to the matted centre within applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring incorporating Arabic five minutes beyond the minute ring, with scroll pierced steel hands and applied rococo scroll cast spandrels to angles beneath arch with TOCAR/SILENCIO selection dial flanked by conforming cast mounts, the bell-top case with hinged brass carrying handle over rococo scroll cast mount to superstructure and brass pineapple finials over double cavetto top mouldings, the hinged front with giltwood fillet mouldings to the glazed dial aperture and folate cast and pierced upper quadrant frets, the sides with break-arch windows and the rear with break-arch glazed door set within the frame of the case, on cavetto moulded skirt base with gilt brass ogee bracket feet. 48cm (19ins) high with handle down, 28cm (11ins) wide, 18cm (7ins) deepProvenance: The Late William Keith Neal, Antique firearms collector, formerly of Bishopstrow House, Warminster, Wiltshire.Robert Higgs is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as apprenticed in 1743 and gaining his Freedom of the Clockmaker's Company in 1750. He worked from Sweetings Alley and took his brother Peter into partnership in 1770. James Evans is recorded by Baillie as also working from Sweetings Alley from 1773. In 1775 he went into partnership with Robert and Peter Higgs; the firm subsequently moved to Exchange Alley and continued in business until around 1825. The partnership of Higgs and James Evans specialised in producing clocks for the export market - particularly to Spain hence a significant proportion of surviving examples (including the current lot) being annotated and signed in Spanish. Condition Report: The movement is in relatively clean working condition however the strike train sometimes 'miscounts' the hour suggesting that slight adjustment to the rack/snail system is required. The escapement has been changed from verge (with short bob pendulum) to anchor although minimal intervention to the plates has occurred hence the clock would convert back leaving little evidence of the present arrangement if so desired. Movement otherwise is in good original condition but with some re-pinioning. The dial is in good original condition retaining older mellow surface exhibiting some rubbing and discolouration, The minute hand has been restored. The case is in good condition with faults limited to slight rubbing to the ebonised finish (most noticeably to the front door) and some light shrinkage cracking (most noticeably to the superstructure). The rear has a small veneer loss to the lower left-hand corner; the escutcheon plate to the front door is a later addition. Clock has a crank winder and a case key. Condition Report Disclaimer
