Cheffins Cambridge Vintage Sale at Sutton near Ely is set to take place on the 24 October 2020. A selection of 150 vintage and classic tractors will be up for grabs. Other lots on offer include, 40 vintage motorcycles and 15 classic cars and commercial vehicles.
The firm have said that the upcoming October sale will welcome back live bidding for tractors, vehicles and motorcycles although following strict social distancing guidelines. Other parts of the sale will be held as a timed online auction.
One of the stand-out newer classic tractors of the sale is a 1985 Mercedes MB Trac 1000 (above) which is believed to have been cosmetically restored. With 8,350 hours on the clock and the V5 present, Cheffins say it carries an estimate of £25,000-£28,000 (€27,392-€30,680).
One of the older lots is this 1915 built Weeks-Dungey Patent 'Simplex' tractor which is estimated to command a price in the region of £35,000-£45,000.
Other vintage and classic tractors offered on the day will include varying makes and models dating as far back as the early 1900s. One of which is a rare 1915 model of a Weeks-Dungey Patent ‘Simplex’. The tractor was built by Hugh Percival Dungey from Cranbrook in Kent, with these particular models said to have been designed for use in small fields and between narrow rows of fruit in orchards. There are few of these machines still in existence, with this model believed to be of historical significance. It has an estimated guide price of £35,000-£45,000 (€38,350-€49,305).
This model six-inch scale Burrell Steam Wagon has the highest-estimated guide price of all lots booked at £65,000-£80,000.
The item with the highest-estimated price is a model six-inch scale Burrell Steam Wagon which is estimated to reach a price between £65,000-£80,000 (€71,220-€87,655). This example is exactly a half-size replica of the Burrell 3793, built to Burrell works drawings by a master model engineer over a 10-year period.
This 1941 Fordson Roadless Standard N crawler is estimated to sell for £15,000.
Also on offer is a 1941 Fordson Roadless Standard N crawler which was previously owned by Sir Richard Fairey, a British aviation pioneer/manufacturer of military planes during WWII. The crawler still has its original identification and war department’s registration number. It is estimated to achieve a price somewhere in the region of £15,000 (€16,435).
