JowettTalk

Market comment - Spring is well on the way and sales are gathering momentum - Bradford projects tend to appear on E Bay and then end long before the auction closing date which equates to them being in strong demand has bidders are making contact with the vendors and making strong offers to secure the vehicles rather than face a bidding war, I am aware of a very nice Jupiter changing hands and two further Jupiters that will come under the gavel of various auction houses in the next few weeks - plus Alan Fishburns Jupiter prototype replica is also to be re-entered for auction this month. Javelins are also sought after and I currently hold a request from a prospective member - if you have a largely original - well presented Javelin for sale please advise and I will put you in touch.

http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C602089

1952 Javelin Project Said to start & stop by the vendor but in a non roadworthy condition, quite scruffy in appearance and requires work to the outer panels in the usual areas that suffer from rust perforation, there are also a few cosmetic items missing and although usable the interior also requires some work. For sale via a E Bay fixed price advert and quite heavily priced given it's condition at £3,500 or offer (unsure if the vendors idea of an offer is something that actually reflects the true value of the vehicle) Now reduced to £3,250 but still some way overpriced - Reduced again - now £2,950 - and again to £2,850 and yet again to £2,750 but the vendor needs to get realistic and reduce the car by a further £1,000 in order to achieve a sale

1949 Javelin - Early car, solid & roadworthy, new tyres, gold coachwork, presentable and solid car which would benefit from some cosmetic TLC, for sale by club member Danuta Morgan 01633 211410 - car is located in Newport, Wales - well priced at £3,500

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 £9,500 now on the market for several months and going nowhere at this kind of money - 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 a hefty asking price of £11,000

1952 Javelin - Straight car, nicely presented with gold coachwork, original interior in red with nice patina but now showing signs of wear
The car is for sale with a dealer in Lancashire for an eye watering overpriced & unrealistic £18,000 !!! Remains for sale but now reduced in price to £15,990 or near offer which still somewhat maintains the vehicle in the unrealistic & overpriced league

The figure quoted is incorrect - it sold for less than that

Chris , The anglia auction has revised it's sale price for the Jupiter to £25200 . It was registered in Burnley in 1953 and is chassis no. 932 . Bob

Listing updated 11/04/15 @ 12:30 with Javelin projects + Stondon Museum cars for auction

A remarkable lot of cars from the Stondon Museum, should be benchmark prices for a wide range of classics . The Javelin is in the" owner unknown" section of our 2008 register and is shown as an "S" standard car but it looks like a delux inside at least and in very good order .

The registration is a mid 1953 number in County of Chester so it must have been in a dealer for quite a time . My Javelin is E2 PD ( not PE as shown in our register) 22752 , 164 after this one and was registered on 1st October 1952 .

The car looks good but is missing --or painted over --the front screen surround insert , and the title "PE" should read "PD" as shown in the particulars . Await the result with interest ! Bob

Listing updated 13/04/15 @ 10:20 - more E Bay projects + Jupiter project for sale via a dealer Its a strong market for both vendors & purchasers with a lot of current choice - 29 Jowetts presently listed - although some will never sell at the current vendors stubborn valuations

Not sure about 1937 pick up....cab back / roof doesn't look right.....is that a running board under drivers door?
