Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Blackwall tires on red wire wheels, tiller steering, hill holder sprag. Known since the late 30s, VCC dated in 1947 and a multiple Brighton Run participant (something like 34 times) with an entry for this years event. Restored in 1997 preserving original features including upholstery. A stout old car.

Market commentary

And a stout old price, too, but veteran Brighton Runners like this are hard to find and command a high degree of loyalty. A satisfying, if expensive, acquisition.
