Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Long boot, chrome wire wheels, 100D engine upgraded with three Solex carbs, Les Leston woodrim steering wheel. Carefully cosmetically restored with only 16,607 miles from new. A very fine example sympathetically preserved and nicely presented.

Market commentary

Ace Bristols are delightful drivers: light, tight and responsive. There are better restored examples, but probably not another one that better combines condition, origility and driveability than this one. The buyer paid well, but not excessively, for its combition of attributes.
