About this car

A 1931 Alvis 12/60 with open touring coachwork by Cross & Ellis, one of the sporting British chassis of the post-vintage era. The 12/60 was Alvis's well-regarded small sports model, and open-bodied cars like this remain popular for club events and touring.

This example has been in the same ownership since 1961. The engine was rebuilt some years ago but has not been used since, and the brakes have recently been set up and adjusted.

The car needs an interior and weather equipment, so it is a project to finish rather than a ready-to-use tourer. The dealer suggests that some light fettling would make it dependable transport.
