The Consul formed part of Ford’s pioneering post-war range, featuring modern unibody construction, independent front suspension and a 1.5-litre overhead-valve engine - advanced engineering for the period First registered in 1955, this example has had just six recorded keepers from new, including several understood to be long-term custodians Finished in Dorchester Grey with a red leather interior, the car appears fundamentally solid but is now presented in a condition requiring full recommissioning prior to any return to the road Likely to have benefited from restoration work earlier in its life, though it is clear that further mechanical and cosmetic attention will now be required An increasingly rare sight today, offering an excellent opportunity to acquire and revitalise an early post-war British Ford, well suited to an enthusiast seeking a practical and engaging project Exterior
