Description
For sale: Chenard et Walcker 1922 Cabriolet
Belgian registration with extendable side windows so the car can be completely closed
The car was completely rebuilt from the chassis by the previous owner and finished by me in the most original possible way (chassis, engine, body/ coachwork timber, interior, bonnet, radiator, etc.).
It has Belgian registration documents and has a technical inspection (definitely exempt as a year of manufacture before 1926 at the next inspection).
It is regularly used for club visits and local vintage car exhibitions (about 500 km per year) and has always been maintained every year. In spring 2025, the engine again received fresh oil and all lubrications were checked. Always starts with a single pull using the hand crank (better when cold) and the original starter is also in working order. At the time of purchase, additional explanations on maintenance, adjustments and use in traffic.
