1958 Superb MK2 Zephyr 6 Convertible Aquaplane Overdrive For Sale

We are delighted to be able to offer this wonderful vehicle again, due to the downsizing of a Ford Collection . Since we sold it , the car has had £3000 spent on it at Zodiac Motor Services having had a full service , tuning, and various other items replaced .. It’s also had the correct Highline headlamp bezels and hubcaps fitted ..

Beautifully treasured example of this very rare early MK2 Zephyr 6 Convertible. Examples like this just don't come along these days

Only Four registered keepers from new and just 76, 000 recorded miles from new

Originally supplied with Aquaplane inlet , triple SU carburettors, six-branch exhaust manifold & Overdrive

Always well maintained and fastidiously preserved, original handbook and warranty card

This truly delightful Convertible has been known to the previous owner vendor since it was new, as he worked in the road where it first lived. The Zephyr was supplied to its first owner by Rugby Autocar, Ford dealers for the Coventry and Warwickshire area at the time.
It was first registered in August 1958 and has had just four owners since, and only covered just 75, 000 miles. The Ford has never undergone restoration and, aside of the occasional bout of cosmetic paintwork, remains in fabulous order remarkably original, even down to the Aquaplane triple carburettor and six-branch exhaust manifold conversion that was fitted when the car was new.
We've never seen one where the hood and windows all fit properly . Needsless to say it drives beautifully

Very comprehensively equipped, the Zephyr also comes with overdrive, full and half tonneau covers, polished wheels trims, period radio, auxiliary lights and badge bar with numerous badges.

Finished in an eye-catching shade of Red and trimmed in Cream with matching hood and tonneaus, this wonderfully evocative '50s Ford is now offered complete with history file containing MOT certificates back to 1980, items of Ford Owners' Club material, the original handbook and warranty card, plus various hand-written items contributed by former owners.

The car is painted and detailed underneath and is as clean under there as on top


Further Info:

Ford's Consul, Zephyr and Zodiac models were heavily revamped and restyled for the 1956 model year, during which the engine capacity of the six-cylinder cars was increased to 2553cc, which in turn raised the output to 86bhp. The model came with the choice of three-speed manual gearbox and the option of overdrive, or Borg Warner automatic transmission. The substantial hood of the Convertible version could be purchased with or without power assistance, and lowered in two stages; the first of which was a glamorous-looking 'de ville' position. An overdrive-equipped Convertible put through its paces by Motor magazine delivered a top speed of 88. 3mph and a 0-60mph acceleration time of 17. 0 seconds - as tested, the car cost £1193.
