1951 Alvis TA21 Tickford Drophead Coupe
Estimated at £12,000 - £14,000
Lot details
Registration No: CKS 256
Chassis No: 24375
Mot Expiry: July 2001
The TA21 was introduced in 1950 with the centre section of the TA14 but a new seven bearing short stroke engine, a return to coil springs and Alvis's first hydraulic brake system. The rarest of all these models, that were only produced for three years, is the Drophead Coupe by Tickford that is what we have on offer for you today.
Direct from a private collection this car is described as an excellent driving car in very good condition but not a concours example. It has recently had a new exhaust fitted and the previous owner kept the car for over twenty years and hence it still has it's original registration number with the original buff log book, spotlights and the badge bar under the grille and is only for sale due to the owner now having no time to drive the car or space to keep it.
A lovely rare car which should be eagerly contested at the sale today.
