SUMMARY
The Warwickshire Collection - This car has formed part of an extensive collection of British and European Classics and your inspection is encouraged.
DESCRIPTION
- In recent years, this car has formed part of a large collection and has received little or no use, so an element of recommissioning is to be expected. Some of these cars do start, run and drive. Each car has a condition report, however they are all sold as seen
- The six-cylinder, four-door Majestic with 3-speed Borg Wagner automatic transmission and vacuum-servo assisted, four-wheel disc brakes would have been very mechanically advanced for its time
- The engine is an inline six of 3.8-litres with pushrod operated overhead valves giving a power output of 147bhp at 4,400rpm
- TXW 680 is finished to a good standard in silver over Metallic Grey with a slightly faded red leather interior
- The odometer currently indicates 27,552 miles which is not warranted
- Looking around the car, it's clear that the bodywork and chrome have been restored with a nice paint finish however the interior seems fairly original
- Mechanically the engine appears to have been out of the car and possibly rebuilt but we can't confirm this
- Guided very sensibly, this venerable Majestic could be on the road with minimal effort
