Yes not bad, except for the dash and the tail-lights nothing extensively modified and can be reverted to original, if it ends up with the right person that is.
Not commenting/raising any topic on the price in this thread for obvious reasons.

A factory sunroof ? Well all I can say is that please note Rewa estate and Maharajah of Rewa are two different outlooks. Looks more chopped. Just a heads up

Cheers

A West based broker had informed about this car. Though I was not interested, my curiosity was tested as I waited for the pictures since I was told this is one of 3 in the world and only one of the kind in India .

Thanks Ajay for the pictures now seeing the advt., it states this is a one of a kind car, I am even more curious

Thanks Kasli for the update, one would easily imagine this car to be from the Maharaja of Rewa Stables

Cheers

ajay99, kasli and KPS - This one is another example of the same car way back in its hey days (1940):

Two More cars of the same make are known to me, one is the Gem Palace Jaipur car which has been featured many times on this forum and the other one, which is not in the market and known by very few , somewhere in Rajasthan, (cannot disclose any more about it).

The cars pictured here are a little different,note the headlights. I think these are 1940 model. There is a similar car in Hyderabad too.

re: Classic Cars available for purchase

Someone will have to go and have a closer look at that sunroof. Maybe it was cut for Shikar, and therefore will be eligible for the next Cartier event if there is a Shikar class. Did the price of this car just go up?

Jokes aside, I can confirm that in 1939, there was a Buick with a sunroof, and it was genuine original at that time. Maybe I'll put up a pic next week.
There Chevy's are ofcourse not Chevelles,(check the ad), and there is a 2-door version of this car with the Heritage Museum coming up in Gurgaon. And one car went in the ground in Chembur/Vashi, I believe it was originally from Hyderabad.

Cheers harit

I don't know, but sometime ago a Mini was offered at a very "reasonable" rate. The catch was that those who contacted were asked to deposit "earnest money" maybe 1L, "definitely" refundable if they don't end up buying the car, to view the car. So if he gets a few "bakras", he collects a small sum "meeting ke pehle". Price is "meeting ke bad", hopefully a meeting will ever take place.

As they said before, if it is too good to be true, normally it is.

Cheers harit
according to truecaller the number belongs to one prashant k. anyone has any experience dealing with him regarding vintage and classic cars?

1951 Hillman for sale in Kerala.

It seems some degree of reality has set in with respect to quotes of such mass produced classic cars.

Ajay Sir,
I dont think your assumption is correct. At least these 2 fresh ads from our classifeids will certainly make you think otherwise

Thanks much, howler! I do hope to conclude a deal for some if not all of them - for than anything I hope I'm able to follow up on the genuine enquiries, given my paucity of time. I really need to reduce my inventory and travel light. There'll be more coming up after these, including a few 'modern' ones in the stable!

One unique thing about THIS mass-produced classic car is that it transforms into a Willys(?) Jeep at random! See the last pic. in the ad!

It seems almost magical! Did the price just go up a notch?!
