1960 Alvis TD21 coupe , owned since 1968, only three owners from new.
1960 Alvis TD21 coupe , owned since 1968, Registration 3445 NG, believed only three owners from new with extensive history.
This wonderful Classic Alvis project was bought by the vendors father in March 1968 with 57,860 miles on the clock for £375 (original bill of sale included). According to the service history booklet it only had two previous owners being originally supplied to Mr T.A. Ringer of The Grange, West Rudham. It was the vendors fathers pride and joy and was regularly driven and enjoyed and there is a huge file of correspondence and bills both with the Alvis factory and Red Triangle Autoservices during his ownership. By the early 1980s with 120,000 miles on the clock he decided to restore the car including having the engine rebuilt, starter and dynamo rebuilt, chassis, brakes and suspension overhauled, new tyres, axle rebuilt, a full stainless steel exhaust system fitted, parts re-chromed, body work stripped and the roof of the car resprayed in silver along with the wheels. The lower half of body given a first coat of paint. This work took many years and sadly he didn't manage to finish it although all the major jobs seem to have been completed. It still has its original leather interior which appears in good order but will now require re-assembly and finishing off to complete the late owners desire to have his beloved Alvis back on the road in first class order. It is complete with large history file of correspondence and restoration bills, original service book fully completed up to 1967, original handbook , workshop manual and old V5 document. A very worthy project with all the hard work done. (Subject to 12% buyers' premium inclusive of VAT).
Sold for £6,000
