Description
Offered without reserve;
restoration project; 43,458 miles showing, however this can not be verified;
currently owned since 2005
Offered without reserve,
this pre-war Vauxhall 12 presents as a genuine British motoring
survivor with considerable restoration potential.
Finished
in an attractive combination of green coachwork with black wings and
complemented by a green leather interior, the car retains the elegant styling
and character that made Vauxhall's pre-war models so popular. Displaying 43,458
miles, the recorded mileage cannot be verified and should be regarded as
indicative only.
The vehicle has had just three former
keepers and has remained in the current ownership since July 2005, suggesting a
long period of custodianship. Powered by its 1,141cc engine, the Vauxhall is
currently non-running and is therefore offered as a restoration project,
providing the successful purchaser with the opportunity to recommission and
restore the car to its former glory.
Visually, the car
appears substantially complete and retains much of the charm and authenticity
that enthusiasts seek in pre-war vehicles. Such cars are becoming increasingly
difficult to find, particularly those that have escaped significant modification
and remain suitable candidates for sympathetic
restoration.
Whether acquired as a rewarding mechanical
project, a preservation exercise or a rare addition to a collection of pre-war
British motoring, this Vauxhall 12 offers considerable appeal.
Offered
entirely without reserve, it presents an accessible opportunity to secure a
characterful and increasingly scarce piece of automotive
history.
