As a result of an acquaintance's death his widow is wishing to dispose of the above. It is currently dismantled to some extent, but I suspect everything is there. Does anyone have any idea of the value of these?

Condition and completeness will be a major factor, as will be model - 2 cylinder or 4 cylinder (a 1935 is probably a four cylinder, which is the less desirable model). A really smart one in good running order will probably be around £15,000; a complete and original 2-cylinder car needing a full rebuild has just failed to raise a bid on eBay with a starting figure of £8,000 ( I thought a realistic price was probably £4-5,000). It's now been relisted at the same price: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BSA-1933-3-Wheeler-Barn-Find-/112002903828?

Thanks Mike, the engine was swathed in "bandages" but based on what you have said, if I return I will pay more attention. I was aware of the eBay one and suggested that they should not let it go for much less than £4K.
