1950 4CV LEMANS * PRICE REDUCED*

John Ashley are pleased to offer this one of a kind

1950 4CV Le Mans

This 4CV Le Mans using a 4CV 1060 base was originally a Parisian car

before being imported into the UK in 1964. The 4CV spent many years on

display at a Renault dealership when it was then sold to an RAF Pilot who

converted the car to 12v and fitted a servo. It was subsequently sold on

to D. Wheeler, Hillclimb Champion and Engineer. The current owner then

worked with Mr Wheeler having commissioned him to build a Le Mans

Recreation using extremely rare and period parts.

The original 760cc engine was replaced with a 904cc unit.

The 3-speed box was upgraded with an extremely rare 5-speed

Redele/ Pons, also known as a Claude box, had the mesh removed to fit

the extra gears. At the time the 5-speed gear box was manufactured, it

sold for the same price as a standard build 4CV.

The rear suspension was also upgraded, again with the ultra-rare Gregoire

Rear Suspension.

To match the Le Mans spec, the brakes were changed to 9-inch Juva

drums.

All components that have been removed have been stored away and

come with the car.

Also included is a package of period, later dash, Jaeger Gauges, Rev

Counters + drive for rev counter either from the engine or distributor

(minus cable) in order to configure the dash to Le Mans spec.

This 4CV Le Mans is a unique package that would be very difficult to put

together again. This 1950 4CV, in this configuration that was normally

used in the extremely rare Alpine 106 Mille Miles, makes this a truly exceptional find.

Finished in Z1098 Lazuli Blue.
