Lot no. 165
1929 Durant Miller 660 biplace No reserve Carte grise française de collection Châssis n° C-039597 - Une voiture confidentielle en Europe - Belle évocation des courses d'Ovale - Travaux mécaniques poussés récents - Sans réserve Cette automobile peu courante a longtemps était la propriété d'un collectionneur monégasque, avant que notre vendeur ne l'acquiert en 2014. Nous ne disposons pas d'information sur son historique passé et ne pouvons confirmer à quelle date elle a été construite. Selon un rapport d'expertise joint au dossier, cette Durant pourrait être un exemplaire unique réalisé par l'usine pour l'écurie Cliff Durant, avec l'aide de Harry Miller. Cette voiture était destinée à courir sur des pistes ovales comme celle d'Indianapolis. Dotée d'une carrosserie biplace, sa carrière en course aurait débuté en 1930, et le nom de Ralph Hepburn figure sur le côté de la voiture. Elle est équipée d'un six-cylindres Continental latéral à carburateurs Miller, d'une boîte quatre rapports, d'un réservoir de 150 L et de freins à tambours ventilés à commande hydraulique. La carrosserie est en aluminium, sur un châssis échelle en acier. Toute la mécanique (moteur, boîte, trains roulants, direction, électricité) ont été restaurés par Patrick Coulant (atelier Belle Époque) ainsi que par le mécanicien de l'actuel propriétaire, les travaux totalisant quelque 30 000 €. Pour permettre l'immatriculation de cette voiture pour la route, le propriétaire l'a équipée de garde-boue, d'un éclairage avec phares Edmund & Jones, ainsi que d'une roue de secours. C'est une auto rare en Europe qui promet une expérience de conduite unique. French collector's registration Chassis # C-039597 - A rarity in Europe - Beautiful evocation of speedway racing - Mechanicals redone recently - No reserve This unusual car for long was owned for a long time by a Monaco-based collector before our seller bought it in 2014. We do not have information on its past history and cannot confirm the exact date of production. According to an expert report attached to the file, this Durant could be a single example made by the factory for Cliff Durant's racing team, with the help of Harry Miller. This car was designed to run on speedways such as Indianapolis. Fitted with a two-seater bodywork, its race career started in 1930, and the name of Ralph Hepburn is on the side of the car. It is powered by a six-cylinder Continental side valve engine with Miller carburetors, a four-speed gearbox, a 150L fuel tank and ventilated drum brakes with hydraulic control. The body is made of aluminum, on a steel ladder frame. The engine, gearbox, running gear, steering and electricals have been restored by Patrick Coulant (workshop Belle Epoque) and by the mechanic of the current owner, the work totaling some € 30,000. To allow the registration of the car for road use, the owner has fitted mudguards, Edmund & Jones headlights and a spare wheel. This is a very rare car in Europe that promises a really unique driving experience.
