Description
Standard Vanguard beetleback 1951 - manual. Ratrod or Restoration opportunity with CHERISHED NUMBER JHO 98 ( and new log book V5 ). Believed to be 1 owner with reconditioned engine ( pictures supplied ). . 60, 000 miles and is one family owner from new. Acquired for restoration but due to ill health the opportunity has arisen to pass the gauntlet onto a new custodian. It needs sills ( original ones provided ). and is perfect to harness the current patina ! Great opportunity !
I bought this one owner car with it's one family owner status to build a ratrod but due to ill health I haven't been able to do it . The engine has been fully reconditioned and pictures internally are included. The latest V5 with it's transferrable number JHO 98 is included. The car would suit a ratrod build due to the patina and solidity of the body. It's doors open and shut beautiful. It needs sills and obviously engine refitting but the car is a wonderful almost American shape of classic 1950s.
