Description
i'm selling my restored Daimler sovereign series 1. Daimlers are luxury versions of jaguars, that's why my car has four electric windows, power steering, electric aerial and overdrive. the paintwork has been partially redone, the two front wings, the front bonnet and the two rear wings. the alignment was done this summer. i've done a compression test on the six cylinders, which vary between 8 and 9 bars so very good.
the car is fitted with spoke wheels with white edged tyres, the hubs as well as the bearings and spy seals on each wheel are new. the engine compartment has also been repainted, as well as the cradle and many parts in gloss black. most of the silent-blocks are new.
the car has been fitted with an electronic ignition, a high torque starter and an alternator (instead of a dynamo). the steering rack has been completely rebuilt. the overdrive and the gearbox have been rebuilt and everything works well (5th gear). I have owned this car for over 10 years, I bought it from a person who used it as a donor, and bought it himself from a gentleman who lived in Toulon. The car was almost complete but in parts, the bodywork was in good condition, paint had to be redone and a few spots of rust on the floor. The restoration was done in several stages due to a lack of money and especially time I started with the restoration of the engine compartment then the bodywork to finish with the interior. I used it for several weddings including that of my niece. The roadworthiness test has just been done, it is clean. The car is not registered as a collector.
