AUCTION CLOSED

1954 Bristol 403 / 1475 “Barnfind”

Introduction

It’s a true classic car but does need a new owner to bring it back to life.

I bought it with my friend as a project for him to restore, circa 30 years ago.

Unfortunately life and circumstances put it on the back burner. However he made steady progress with it but sadly died in August and I have no knowledge of restoring vehicles.

It would be nice for the car to find an enthusiast who can return it to somewhere near its former glory.

This listing was written from information supplied by XXXXX after meeting XXXXX the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.

History and Paperwork

The old-style V5 document is available with the vehicle.

Sadly there's not much history with the vehicle as it's been lost at some point - so no service history, invoices or receipts.

I am not aware if there are any missing parts and there maybe duplication of some parts.

From Trade Classics:

This is a Market Auction listing, meaning we have not visited and photographed the car - instead the seller has supplied the images and written the description. However we’ve done all our usual seller checks, including photo ID that matches the V5, and also actioned a history check on the vehicle - this is a professional check operated by HPi that will highlight if the car has been previously stolen, recorded as being in an accident, or have any outstanding finance - note, this does not include a mileage history check.

Viewings are welcomed, so please get in touch with us via the 'contact us' page - we just need to speak to you first on the phone, have you register on the site, and also send in valid photo ID before confirming a suitable time to visit.

Like all our auctions, if there's anything you're unsure about, no matter how small, then please first ask the owner in the comments area below before placing your bids, as bids can't be retracted and form a binding contract if you win the car - the Buyer's Premium is not refundable in any instance, just like a traditional auction house.
