Bristol 407/410 Convertible, 1963, by Viotti. A one-off Bristol convertible that was originally owned by actor Peter Sellers is for sale in the UK. A standard RHD Bristol 407 was sent to the Italian coachbuilder, it was a design exercise requested by Bristol Cars and made its first public appearance at the 1962 Turin Motor Show. Bristol decided against putting the car into production but Peter Sellers, a loyal Bristol client, persuaded the company to turn the prototype into a fully-finished car. It was often used by his wife, Britt Ekland

The Airport Visitor : the annual guide to civil aviation : ed : S/Ldr. N. J. Freeman and G. D. H. Linton : Penman Enterprises : London : [1953] by mikeyashworth Via Flickr: An interesting booklet aimed at the civil aviation enthusiast in days when a trip to an official viewing area at one of Britain's civil airports was quite the day out. Several here are noted as having "broadcast commentaries and recorded music" to help set the scene. The booklet lists all Britain's civil Customs airports, those operated by the Ministry of Civil Aviation or by operators on their 'behalf' and many of which still had Ministry of Defence links, along with non-Customs licensed aerodromes. As well as this there are descriptions of the various airlines, the 'planes they operate and an aircraft log book along with information as to ground activities such as control and approach radar. The cover is by artist Lawrence Fish (1919 - 2009) a noted commercial and advertising illustrator and puts Silver City Airways firmly in the picture. Silver City, formed in 1948, were noted for their "air car ferry" services operated primarily from Lympne to France and from Southampton to Cherbourg. The fleet of Bristol 170 Mk.21 Freighters and Mk.32 'Superfreighter' seen loading here carred three cars and twenty passengers. The freighters also carried, as can be seen, bicycles. The helicopter seen above is how Silver City saw the future; the company put considerable effort into considering the adoption of a freight helicopter and detachable "pannier" system for moving freight at a time when Fairey Aviation were developing the Rotodyne and Blackburn Aircraft were developing the SP60. The project never came to fruition.

Bristol 406 Zagato, 1960. One of 6 Zagato-bodied Bristols was part of the Zagato display at the London Concours. The Italian cars were lighter, smaller, and faster than the factory-bodied base car and are considered the most valuable of classic Bristols
