This well-travelled Amilcar CGS was formerly owned by an Australian before coming to the UK in the 1970s. Reportedly, the car was raced by a lady driver at Prescott, Silverstone, and other venues with the VSCC. Subsequently it was sold to Belgium, remaining there for some ten years before being offered for sale by the Belgian dealer Marreyt, from whom it was purchased by the immediately preceding owner, a friend of mine.
Over the last ten years the Amilcar has been comprehensively restored, including a full engine rebuild around a new cylinder block and an in-period Cozette high-performance cylinder head. Any machining work required was undertaken by Formhalls Vintage & Racing. Other works carried out included rebuilding the magneto; re-spoking and powder coating the wheels; and re-trimming the interior in chocolate leather.
Presenting beautifully and driving well this represents a rare opportunity to acquire a rare motorcar.
