This automobile was purchased new by my father in Pennsylvania, has always been garaged and faithfully cared for. Never smoked in. Engine is original, runs beautifully- no smoke. Engine, brakes ( 4 wheel power discs ) and mechanicals have been maintained by British car professionals. November 2016 I had first new clutch put in, new heater box hose, exhaust manifold gaskets, oil cooler O-rings, reworked front engine stabilizer w new rubber bushings, and some minor wiring and hose updates. Also, with this 'doctor' visit , New : Valvoline VR1 racing 20w /50, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and coolant. Muffler and exhaust pipe replaced in 2012, and correct Vredestein Sprint radial tires have less than 200 mi. Original black leather bucket seats - no splits- w fold-down rear center armrest , paint (original exc front fenders), chrome, interior surfaces, headliner, etc., are all in outstanding condition.Dash is NOT faded as it appears in photo, sun glare. AM-FM radio, cigarette lighter, interior lighting, instruments, all in good working order. With four-wheel independent (w DeDion rear) suspension and twin carb ( SU,s ) high compression engine ( 124 HP ), driving is a true delight. I am selling only due to the challenges of storing. I will tell you that this car garners attention wherever it goes due to it's condition and rarity. I have had it to numerous shows and gatherings over the years and I have never encountered another one. In May 1967, Car and Driver Magazine said...."Absolutely the best sedan that has been presented in the pages of this magazine. We think it's an automotive milestone." This unique British marque is in need of a good home.
Bargain cool.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous car. Condition looks to be excellent, and the price is attractive. I always thought of these as the miniature Jaguar Mark 2. I was amused to read that the "Ice Alert" warning light is burned out. Basically, it is a temp sensor on the front bumper that lights a warning lamp if it is below freezing. Probably was a useful feature in the UK, but up here in Ottawa, that damned light would be on steadily from Dec to the end of March.
