1933 Singer Nine Sports

Description

Fresh from a 25-year restoration including a new ash frame, aluminium body and leather interior; vendor lost count of restoration costs after £30,000!

First delivered to dealers Cook & Palmer Ltd in May 1933, this Singer Nine Sports 4-Seater was originally presented in Ivory and Red before it was treated to what appears to have been an epic restoration by the current owner.

The club dating certificate on file and copy of original build sheet confirm the above details.

The early life of this Singer is unknown, but our vendor bought it in c.1998 as an ‘absolute shambles’ and commenced what would be end up being a 25-year restoration.

Notes and invoices in the history file give details of the restoration which included a new ash frame; new aluminium body; new leather interior; new hood and side screens; a rebuild of both engine and gearbox; four new tyres and wheels; re-cored radiator and electric fan; full re-paint and re-chrome and to top it off a new steering wheel. The vendor has told us he rather lost count of the expense after £30,000, although it has resulted in what is almost a new vintage car!

Since the restoration was completed, it has been mainly kept in storage but is being offered for sale to free up the space that it occupies. It does run and drive, but having not been used regularly recently, we would recommend a few simple checks before taking out on the road.

As you can see in the photos, it looks absolutely wonderful and is ready for a new custodian to enjoy.
