Brit highlights at Mecum las Vegas, May 1 Mecum's recent Las Vegas auction showed solid numbers for prime Brit beef. Here are some highlights. Lot F107 – 1973 Triumph Vetter X75 Hurricane – Au$29,900 (US$23,100, GB£16,700)...we might have expected this one to go higher. Lot F108 – 1969 BSA Rocket III – Au$35,600 (US$27,500, GB£19,900)...a very strong result for this model. Lot F110 – 1959 Triumph Bonneville T120 – Au$29,800 (US$23,000, GB£16,700) Lot F109 – 1963 Triumph TT Special – Au$92,500 (US$71,500, GB£51,800)...a huge result for this model, even given its comparitive rarity. Lot F111– 1958 Ariel Square Four (1000cc) unrestored – Au$22,000 (US$17,000, GB£12,300) Lot F103.1 – 1953 Vincent Black Shadow with electric start – Au$213,000 (US$165,000, GB£119,000)...well above where we might have expected this one to land – big result. See the listing for detail pics, as the electric leg installation is very tidy. Lot T146 – 1928 Brough Superior 680 OHV – Au$128,000 (US$99,000, GB£71,600)...strong result for a relatively obscure Brough, aka the 'little SS100'. Lot T61 – 1975 Norton Commando 850 – Au$22,000 (US$17,000, GB£12,300)...strong result. See the story on our example, here.
