A couple of people tried to post to this thread by email and their emails came to me (webmaster) so I will post them here;
One was a link to the dealer's own website, which gives an indication of the price sought ($26,000). Seems high considering the car needs total rebuild and de-modification, and no doubt some hard to source engine parts. Assuming the block is sound and the crank is still usable.
1951 Bristol 401 Coupe
The other was this comment;
"Very interesting. Apparently it is chassis 401/909, body 401/2/308 & the block with it is 85C/1814
Not for the faint hearted! Not sure I am brave enough!"
