Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1935 Vauxhall 12/6 DY, named Clarice, has been with only a few owners and features a documented bare-shell restoration from 15-20 years ago. Recently recommissioned after 12 years in storage, it comes with extensive documentation and presents nicely, making it an appealing classic.
Condition
7
The car received a bare-shell restoration 15-20 years ago, including a full interior retrim, and has been recommissioned after being stored for 12 years. The description notes it 'still presents very nicely today' and the bare-shell restoration would improve the condition, though the time since restoration and storage period suggests minor reconditioning may be required.

This smart Vauxhall 12/6 DY, affectionately known as Clarice, is believed to have stayed with its first owner until 1992, and has had only 2 registered keepers since then.
Its last 12 years have been spent stored in a garage, unused, until the vendor rescued the car a few months ago and treated it to a sensitive recommissioning.
This has included a refurbished water pump and fan belt, fresh oils and filters, brake overhaul, replacement petrol tank, fuel pump overhaul and the fitment of a stainless steel exhaust.
Around 15-20 years ago the car received a bare-shell restoration, which is carefully documented in an accompanying photo album.
This work included a full interior retrim (reportedly by a retired Lotus upholsterer) which still presents very nicely today.
The car comes with previous and current V5Cs, original handbook and maintenance manuals, Vauxhall Owner's Club documents, and a meticulous collection of club magazines covering 2010 to 2025.
