Description
1972 Mk4 Ford Zodiac stretched Dorchester limousine by Coleman Milne
Purchased by myself in 2004 for funeral use, a few years later the car was sold to a friend who decided to change the colour. After doing half the car, wasn't happy with the finish or colour so hence it is part primer, part original black and metallic grey at the rear. He gave up and I bought it back from him approx 12 years ago.
Runs and drives although a brake pipe has just burst so currently without working brakes. It is very solid structurally with small amounts of rust but overall in great condition.
The interior could be mint with some cleaning, apart from some damage to the front headlining. The car needs some light recommissioning and the engine could do with tuning. I currently have the car running from a petrol can as I think the tank would benefit from a clean, have not tested it, just more for caution.
Automatic choke was removed for servicing and not put back on. This is with the car and obviously brakes needs some repair to the pipes.
The car will need to be trailered away, I can arrange delivery at extra cost with a local company I have used in the past.
Comes with quite a few spares from various limousines I have broken over the years, including 2 doors, a decent secondhand wing, almost complete interior and various other bits.
Two photos of the car in black was taken before the paint was changed.
Definitely recommend you view the car so you can judge for yourself the condition. Car cannot be driven away!
No silly offers. Contact me to discuss viewings. To recap, good points:
Very rare vehicle and not the usual rot box!
Two new front tyres
New Exide battery fitted
Excellent original interior (could be used for wedding or funeral hire)
Bits to be done:
Paint
Exhaust is blowing
Headlining is damaged
Petrol tank could do with a clean
Auto choke is off the car
