1958 BOND MINICAR MARK F *** VERY RARE NOW ~ INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY *** for sale
Current customer rating: (318 votes ) based onThe Minicar was amongst the first British cars to use fibreglass and aluminium body panels and steel chassis.
The engine was upgraded in 1958 to a 247 cc twin-cylinder Villiers 4T. The engine. gearbox and front wheel were mounted as a single unit and could be turned by the steering wheel up to 90 degrees either side of the straight-ahead position. enabling the car to turn within its own length.
Fitted with a Dynastart unit. which doubled as both starter motor and alternator on these models and incorporated a built-in reversing solenoid switch. After stopping the engine and operating this switch the Dynastart. and consequently the engine. would rotate in the opposite direction producing a reverse gear.
Top speed was given as 55 mph (89 km/h) with an average fuel consumption of 60 mpg.
In great usable order throughout. Drives superb with a lovely gearbox and clutch.

The body work is in great order throughout and has been hand brush painted in the past. which many of these vintage vehicles were then. but it adds to the character and charm.
The interior upholstery comprising the seats and door cards are finished in light dove grey and are also in great condition throughout. Must be viewed to be fully appreciated. Not to be missed.

This is not a 1958 Bond. The "A" registration makes it 1963, the same as mine.
