Informationen/information |
Truly one of a kind built at immense cost. All steel body, built to the most exacting standard with beautiful paintwork and fit and finish.
The twin cam Riley 12/4 unit matched to a supercharger and single big bore carburettor, mated to a 4 speed RME centre change gearbox. Large drum brakes with competition tyres all round. Precise steering, with quick road speed and good brakes make this car good to drive on the modern highway, performs and handles like a new sports car. The spare tyre and fuel tank are behind the removable boot cover. There is a new cloth hood, boot cover but no side screens. There is good foot room for the taller driver over 5'10" unlike the original. All of the factory gauges work as new with an electric fan with manual over ride. The condition and quality of this car is breathtaking, truly 1st class. All leather seats, extremely comfortable. Only 2,700 miles since build. Correct historic V5 present. |
