Description

1 Previous Owner, A particularly sound and correct example of a desirable & rare drophead, restored in the 1970s to an award-winning standard. In fact, amongst other prizes, B4HR won several awards at Pebble Beach, including 1st place in class in 1978. When new, the car was displayed at the Earls Court Motor Show, before being delivered to its first owner in Gibraltar, later going to the USA and later still to France. Forty-six years after the restoration (thirty-two of which were with one owner), the car is still in very good order, running and driving very pleasantly, excellent structurally, including doors which close with a satisfying click with no up & down movement and a rust-free chassis & underside, due no doubt to the warm dry climates the car has lived in at various stages of its life. Cosmetically, the paint is showing its age & lifting in places, but still mostly presentable, the leather is original, in very good condition with no rips or tears, the woodwork is attractive and the hood & lining are excellent. Looking very handsome in two shades of green with tan leather and a beige power hood. The car is fitted both with original trafficators & flashing indicators, which are incorporated into the existing side and tail lights - very neat. There are even colour co-ordinated inertia reel seat belts fitted and radial ply tyres to which the car is well suited. Wholesome and appealing, a desirable car and good value for money, offered serviced, performing very nicely, and MoT tested until November 2025. Chassis No. B4HR Reg. No. LLH 236
