JOWETTS FOR SALE JANUARY 2015

[Chris Spencer]

Market comment - Not a lot moves at this time of the year but the odd sale goes through now and again (right car at the right price will always sell) meanwhile the usual overpriced suspects that have languished for far too long in the market are still available - it is purely down to the overpricing that retains them gathering dust and going nowhere.

1949 Jowett Bradford Van Part completed project - recently repainted bodywork in green, complete rolling chassis, axles, gearbox but no engine - seats require retrimming - vehicle is in Hereford - £1,900 ONO

1952 Javelin project Green with red interior, running car said to start & stop well but not really ready for the road, the outer panels are suffering from rust perforations in all the usual places, rear bumper is missing and the front bumper in a poor condition hence the car presents quite scruffy in appearance, registration number is: BEU 164, the car is located in Holmfirth, West Yorkshire and is on a E Bay fixed price listing of £3,500 - due to the amount of work that is required to the body / interior I am not too sure that is it will change hands at this price - but you never know - link below

LBY 254 The ex Frank Woolley / Richard Gane - Jupiter is for sale - please see listing within this thread / below for images and further details SOLD TO A CLUB MEMBER

1952 Farr bodied Jupiter The advert is sparse in detail but I have made some enquiries in order to add further detail - one of four cars coachbuilt to Jupiter chassis by Farr - I am led to believe that only 3 remain - this was apparently the reserve car for the 1953 Monte Carlo rally - having been barn stored for the last 40 years the car is described as being complete but in a fragile state - given the condition the asking price is very unrealistic at £12,500 - Now reduced to £9,500 - still overpriced and going nowhere - web link to the advert below but no images - the car is in the West Midlands

1951 Jowett Javelin Deluxe Cream with tan interior, restored - vendor has taken the liberty of advertising it has 'Monte Carlo Winning Classic For Sale' However fails to state that if this the actual Monte Carlo car - which I somewhat doubt given the loose sales description that follows the headline, the car is in Brisbane, Australia with an asking price of £11,000
http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C541474

1951 Javelin project - Black - running but requires lots of work - LXT 259 - Price is a very unrealistic £2,800 and no chance of a new owner anytime soon at this price

1926 Jowett roadster - Rebodied in a mid 1930's sports style body finished in bright red and fitted with a Morris side valve engine - quite stylish but very much a mixed breed mongrel - the car is in Elsnez, Germany - unrealistically priced and going nowhere at £14,200 - it has now been on the market for 24 months at this price

BEU, the Javelin, was registered in Brecknock/ Brecon , it looks as if it is a deluxe . It may well have been Gold viz the rear light housings but perhaps the bulk of the car has been stripped for re painting .With body repair and repaint , replacement bumpers etc this could be a quite expensive car. By coincidence an EU reg Javelin has been advertised for sale in Jowetteer recently for a similar price but probably in much better condition. They keep turning up! Bob

[Andy Stevens]

Looks like a standard model with that dashboard

[robert lintott]

Andy could well be correct , it is described in the ebay item as a "standard" car . The brass plate would confirm . It is not in the JCC register (2008). BEU was first issued in Sept. 1951. Bob

[Nick Webster]

BEU 164 appeared in the Scottish Section survey 2013, correctly as green and a standard car (E2 PD 20280). It has previously been in a register (unfortunately I can't off the top of my head say which one - should have though of that when I started my personal spreadsheet) as a beige deluxe. At that time it belonged to a Mr Knowles. We can see in the photographs that beige is probably correct but I suspect the deluxe was a long perpetuated mistake.

[robert lintott]

BEU 164, I thought it might be a DL until I saw the close up interior pic of the dashboard on the e bay site . Is it metal ? there seem to have been variants of the S dashboard .

Is the Scottish Region register available , would be useful to have a copy ? Bob
