Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1949 AC Buckland is a rare, coachbuilt car with a fascinating history, including being a prototype demonstrator. While it needs a respray, interior renovation, and engine work to resolve cooling issues, it presents a sound basis for restoration, supported by a vast collection of spare parts.

Condition 

5

The car has good alloy bodywork, but the paint is utilitarian and needs a respray. The interior is complete but needs renovation. The engine has been rebuilt, but there are unresolved cooling issues, and the car is a non-runner. The car comes with a large quantity of spare parts. It requires around £6-10,000 to restore to a usable condition.

Built in 1949 but not appearing to be registered until the 25th March 1951, this AC Buckland was Buckland’s prototype demonstrator and the very car that Motorsport magazine tested in its September 1952 edition.

(A copy of the article will be included with the car and can be inspected in the Gallery) Interestingly, the car retains its original registration number.
