Registration No: TTW 865N Chassis No: GAECPU01693 MOT: August 2025Bespoke conversion by BSCC champion, engineer and entrepeneur Jeff UrenBelieved the only MkII Capri-based Stampede of 8 builtIncorporating a Ford Boss 302 ‘G Code’ engine with a close ratio Toploader transmissionPaintwork created by Mechspray of Kent, known for movie-car and custom paintA British Saloon Car champion and engineer, Jeff Uren, is probably more well-known for his bespoke conversions of Fords in the late ‘60s and early ‘70s by his company Race Proved Performance and Equipment Ltd. Originally built in June 1974 as a 3 Litre Ghia Automatic for the Ford Motor Co management fleet, after a year 'TTW' was sent for the 3-month conversion in the summer of 1975 and destined for a Mr Stamos Fafalios. Believed to be the only MkII Capri-based Stampede, post-conversion, Mr Fafalios sent 'TTW' to receive the ‘Frosted Grape Pearl’ custom paintwork from Mechspary, known for their efforts on movie cars and film props. It was the subject of a refresh by them c.2013. The car’s impact saw it featured in the full-colour centrefold of Hot Car magazine in 1977 and was road-tested by Classic and Sports Car in 2014. Mr Fafalios kept the car until 2013, by which time the Stampede displayed c. 21,500 miles. Incorporating a Ford Boss 302 (5.0 Litre) ‘G Code’ homologation engine designed for Trans Am racing, it’s married to a Toploader close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission - renowned for high-performance strength and durability - and an Atlas rear axle, appropriately uprated suspension and period F1-style Lockheed 4-pot caliper brakes, with a final set-up by Uren and his friend ex F1 driver John Miles.Recently benefitting from an engine overhaul using Peter Knight Racing internals, the engine is said to be capable of 8,000rpm, although currently set-up with a 7,000rpm limit! The original engine parts are included in the sale. An extensive paperwork file supports the provenance and accompanied by an original handbook, service book and press articles. The Stampede is a unique combination of American muscle and European automotive design and is very much a European Mustang and a performance car that is still very tractable. Expected to be driven to the sale, this is a great opportunity to acquire a very interesting fast Ford! For more information, please contact: Stewart Parker info@handh.co.uk 07836 346875

China. William Saunders Albumen print, 270mm x 210mm mounted on thin card. The image is titled "Barbers at Work" c1875. This appeared as an engraving in the London Illustrated News on 2nd December 1876 and on Page 334 in History of Photography in China, Western Photographers 1861-1879, by Terry Bennett. William Thomas Saunders (1832–1892) was a prominent British-born photographer who established himself in China, gaining renown as the foremost photographer in Shanghai during the late Qing dynasty. Pioneering the introduction of hand-colored photographs in China, Saunders left an indelible mark on the photographic landscape of the time. Born in Britain in 1832, Saunders initially travelled to China in 1860, as an engineer. Subsequently, after returning to Britain and immersing himself in the study of photography, he equipped himself with photographic apparatus and returned to China in January 1862. There, he established one of Shanghai's inaugural photography studios, strategically positioned in close proximity to Astor House Hotel at the epicenter of Shanghai's commercial district. Over the course of twenty-five years, Saunders' studio thrived, a testament to his amalgamation of significant photographic talent, business acumen, and marketing prowess. While primarily recognized for his expertise in portraiture, Saunders' enduring fascination with China motivated him to document current events, local scenery, and the indigenous population. His photographic endeavors encapsulate a pivotal juncture in Chinese history, coinciding with Shanghai's ascendancy as an international commercial hub. Saunders' collection of photographs provides an intimate portrayal of Shanghai's diverse populace, elucidating their traditional lifestyles and occupations. Studio portraits by Saunders frequently incorporated props emblematic of the subject's trade or social standing, with an evident emphasis on the subjects' attire and hairstyles. Despite the posed nature of many of Saunders' depictions of everyday life, dictated by the limitations of photographic processes, they authentically capture the essence of 19th-century Chinese existence. Moreover, his work significantly contributed to the dissemination of knowledge regarding Chinese customs and traditions in Western spheres. Retiring to England in the late 1880s, Saunders maintained a regular travel schedule to China. During a return voyage to Shanghai, his health declined precipitously, culminating in his demise in December 1892 at the age of sixty, succumbing to bronchitis. Saunders' enduring legacy is encapsulated in his pioneering contributions to the field of photography, capturing the essence of a transformative period in China's history and facilitating cross-cultural understanding through his compelling visual narratives. Excellent image, good contrast and colours.

WILLIAM GEAR RA FRSA RBSA (SCOTTISH 1915 - 1997), ORANGE FIGURE oil on board, signed and dated '57, titled versoframed image size 82cm x 122cm, overall size 86cm x 127cm Provenance: Family of William GearExhibition label verso: Guggenheim March 58, Gimpel Fils Gallery, London; 12th Sao Paulo Biennial (partial label); City of Manchester Art GalleryNote: William Gear was a painter born in Fife, Scotland, on 2nd August 1915, the son of Janet Gear and Porteous Gear, a coal miner. He studied at Edinburgh College of Art from 1932 – 6, gaining a postgraduate scholarship that enabled him to study art at Edinburgh University from 1936 -7. Winning a travelling scholarship enabled him to visit Italy, Greece, and the Balkans and to study in Paris with Fernand Leger. After serving throughout the Second World War as an officer in the Royal Corps of Signals he settled in Paris where he met many of the leading post-war Parisian artists. After meeting Appel, Constant, Corneille and Jorn, he joined the COBRA group, Europe’s most important avant-garde movement of the mid – twentieth century. COBRA is an acronym based on Copenhagen, Brussels and Amsterdam in acknowledgement of the founders’ nationalities and to emphasise the internationalism of their attitude. The COBRA painters emphasised spontaneity – an image, they felt, should appear on the canvas as naturally and quickly as a sudden change of weather in the world beyond the window. And it ought to be as impersonal as a thunderstorm. William Gear exhibited with the group in Amsterdam and Copenhagen in 1949; however, beyond his association with COBRA he had a long and successful career in his own right. For example, he was awarded a Festival of Britain Purchase Prize in 1951 and his work appeared at the 1954 Venice Biennale. He became a Senior Royal Academician in 1995 and his work is held in many major public and private collections around the world.

* JONATHAN HOOD (SCOTTISH b. 1957), DANCERS oil on board, signed, titled and dated 2006 versoframedimage size 48cm x 46cm, overall size 65cm x 62cm Note: Jonathan Hood was born in 1957 in Edinburgh, and grew up in Fife and Tayside. He was artistically trained at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee and at the Ecole des Beaux Arts, Paris. Jonathan became a full time painter in 1986, mostly working in watercolour and collage. He is a keen art teacher, regularly running children’s workshops as well as adult night-classes. In 2006, he conducted a collage and painting workshop in Morgan Academy, Dundee for the Racial Equality Commission enabling 2 school pupils to reach the final. Since 2006, Jonathan has also run the WASPS studio open weekend in Dundee. Currently, Jonathan is working mostly in oil, using bright colours and painting on board. He has been exhibiting regularly in galleries around the UK, and in Holland, France and Italy. Jonathan uses dramatic blocks of colour to create depth and texture within his works. His clever compositions create narratives through the interaction between figures, and the addition of carefully selected props to be interpreted by the viewer. It is a testament to his artistic skill that he can convey strong emotion with only the simplest of brushstrokes to represent facial features.
