UPDATE - OPEN TO OFFERS FOR JUST THE CAR AS CAN SEPARATE THE ENGINES AND VAST QUANTITY OF SPARES
1935 Riley 12/ 4 two seat open top Pre selector gearbox
This car was built by my father over 25 years ago using a Riley kestrel as a donor vehicle, complete ash frame and aluminum body. Our Riley has had a fantastic life with trips to Monaco, St Moritz and a huge part of Europe over many years without fault, on the longer trips away the only maintenance required was an oil change usually done by the side of the road. It has rather a large boot space covered by the tonneau which has proved ideal. A fully waterproof hood with side screens is very easily put on and is stored behind the seats. I cannot begin to explain in full detail the amount of spares that are included with the car , a fully rebuilt crate 12/ 4 engine , another fully built 9hp engine, pre selector gearbox a vast amount of fully rebuilt parts like dynamos half shafts wheels all sorts of gauges headlights and lenses aero screens ect all you would require to build another car is a chassis and a Brooklands body.
The car is fitted with a Cherry Bomb exhaust silencer which makes the sound of the 12/ 4 engine totally amazing ! This car brings a Massive smile to all who drive it.
Sadly it is now time to pass this amazing car over to a new custodian to have as much fun and adventures as we have had, we would think nothing of loading the car tomorrow with luggage and going on another epic Euro trip as this car with regular checks has been totally without fail . Also supplied are all the 12/ 4 original service manuals and yet again I cannot exaggerate how much comes with this car , if you are new to Riley's you will require nothing. The pictures are only a sample of what comes with the car.
