Further Info:
Manufactured in late 1936, this splendid 302 Airstream Saloon benefits from a recent professional mechanical restoration. However the coachwork remains untouched and the interior features the original carpets, mats, seats, door panels, instruments and switches, while period accessories include the original air horn. Delivered new to Cherbourg, it comes complete with French Carte Gris, Peugeot 'Lettre D'Attestation' and UK HMRC NOVA entry - a UK V5C has been applied for. The following work has been accomplished in the last 2000km at a cost in excess of Euro 9000: full engine restoration; brake drums ground and braking system overhauled; dynamo, starter motor and carburettor refurbished; new battery, clutch, radiator and Michelin tyres fitted; petrol tank cleaned and tested; steering realigned. This is probably the most original 302s currently for sale, and benefits from an untouched 'oily rag' appearance combined with restored mechanicals. Having just completed a 500 mile European trip, the vendor reports 'constant oil pressure and no overheating, even in temperatures over 32 degrees'. This fine period Peugeot is accompanied by the original first edition owners' handbook, technical manual and history file containing invoices and notes from the recent restoration.
