Description: The second-generation Zephyr Convertible is a definitive piece of British motoring history, bridging the gap between post-war European design and iconic American styling,Built by Ford of Britain with coachwork handled by Carbodies of Coventry, only 5,139 were originally produced, however, as they suffered from a much higher rust and attrition rate than the saloon models they are considerably rarer,They were powered by an oversquare 2,553cc OHV straight-six engine producing roughly 85bhp mated to a three-speed column-change gearbox,First registered in 1959, this example has been in family ownership since 2009, forming part of a cherished private Collection of British classics, with several companion cars also entered into this sale,Understood to have been the subject of an earlier restoration, the car remains notably well presented and is reported to be both running and driving,Carefully stored for almost ten years following the passing of our vendor's late husband, the Zephyr will require recommissioning before returning to regular road use,An increasingly rare and highly desirable late-1950s British four-seat convertible, presenting an excellent opportunity to acquire a scarce Ford with considerable potential and offered at a sensible estimate,
