A particularly pretty car which has undergone in the last few years a ground up nut & bolt restoration. The previous owner purchased the car in a dilapidated condition & set about a multi year restoration to make the car like new. To that end the body was removed from its ash frame & new parts fabricated as required using the old as patterns to make the car as new.

The wheels were sent to Motor Wheel Service for rebuild whilst retaining the splined hubs but including new rims. spokes. stove enamelling and five new Dunlop tyres. New kingpins and bushes were fitted as well as bearings and friction discs in the front and rear dampers. Tony Stairs overhauled the magneto and all back axle bearings have been serviced and replaced as have the torque tube bearings and rubber drive shaft couplings.

The gearbox has been serviced with all bearings replaced and the brake shoes have been re-lined with new wheel bearings and oil seals. A fully rebuilt engine has been fitted which has covered running in miles only. The headlamps have been stripped and new reflectors fitted the wiring loom itself is to the original pattern as is the dashboard and instruments. The dash is flat aluminium in style with a Jaeger 8-Day clock as well as speedometer and rev. counter. The petrol gauge is La Nivex in origin and a stylised 'Pegasus' adorns the radiator.

The paintwork in black & burgundy is a real labour of love that is not only the original colour combination but also took six months to achieve the finish required by its fastidious owner. Black leather seats completer the ensemble. With five years in total to bring this charming example back to the condition we find it in today. its restoration is a testament to his experience and knowledge.

The car starts easily from the starting handle after priming of the carburettor & the engine is sewing machine sweet in its running. The three speed gear box is easily mastered & the car light & delicate on the steering as might be expected. In stock with us now. it is a pleasure to drive.
