Austin BMC Sedan with an inline 6-cyl Rolls Royce engine 4-litre

1966 Austin 1966 Princess 4LR

Honestly I am looking for offers, so I’d be glad to hear your questions as I am developing this listing to completion. Nothing is intentionally hidden from view, this is just the beginning of my effort to sell it.

And to naturally find what it’s market value becomes. Willing to negotiate!

Otherwise It seems to me almost impossible to evaluate it’s worth. Ask me questions!!

I about to conclude the speedometer has been stolen, I don’t ever recall removing it. The fuel, amps, oil and temp gauges are still there. It’s one circular piece containing the 4-gauges.

I removed the burl dash 3 decades ago and have it safely wrapped indoors in plastic. But I don’t recall ever taking out the speedometer.

Photos show part of its condition.

This is a stalled restoration effort by me. The results of my earlier efforts are can be seen in a handful of areas.

The interior is rough, I the two front buckets need full upholstery restoration( unattached), the rear bench seat is basically unused condition but weathered from sitting outside. The woolen headliner is missing and the woolen carpets all need cleaning.

I’ll have photos soon showing more detail. I can’t currently open the bonnet. I’m a bit flummoxed but I’ll succeed soon somehow.

Look closely #2 though, and you can notice the RR on the engine head.

Last running 11 years ago, last driven 24 years ago. Rides like a coach built- like gliding down the road on a boat.

Has a characteristic ‘one sticky lifter’, though does NOT affect performance. Did not affect performance I should say, but there’s no reason why this could not be started once again, from my experience with basically fully-sealed from the elements, antique engines.

The first one off the Rolls Royce Kingsbury Line in Northwest London, was a gift to Young Queen Elizabeth which was maintained along with her stable of automobiles.

This is #662 of only 2000 made 1966-68.

Drives typically like a coach-built. Like on a cloud or a boat.

Ask any questions, Thank you.
