• 1927 Chevrolet Sports Special built over a period of 7 years to VSCC eligible specification
• Handmade body by renowned coachbuilder Clive Smart (Shapecraft ltd)
• Original RHD UK vehicle accompanied with its original owners manual, copy of registration logbook and current V5C document which displays '0' former keepers

This unique hand-built special was manufactured over a period of 7 years from 2013 to 2020. ‘UM 6135’ is based on a 1927 Chevrolet Saloon. The story, as it goes, is that the donor vehicle was purchased and unfortunately the body was damaged in transit. Purchased shortly afterward by the vendor and built specifically with VSCC eligibility in mind, this particular example therefore retains its original chassis, engine and gearbox. Built largely by Steve Cato Classic Restorations of Kings Lynn, what makes this special rather, well, special, is that the body was handcrafted by renowned coachbuilder Clive Smart (Shapecraft Ltd). Although requiring little introduction, it is worth noting that Clive has been responsible for the bodywork on a number of the world’s rarest and most valuable Ferraris and cars from Aston Martin, Jaguar, Alfa Romeo, Lotus, Maserati and more.

With its 3.2L Straight 6 OHV ‘Stove Bolt’ engine, ‘UM 6135’ is also rather interesting with it being an original right-hand drive car, imported and registered in the UK in 1927. Now registered as a ‘Chevrolet Special’ on the V5C document which displays ‘0’ former keepers, this vehicle also comes accompanied with its original owners manual and a copy of registration logbook. The vendor rates the condition of the bodywork and interior trim as ‘very good’, the electrical equipment and transmission as ‘good’ to ‘very good’ and the engine as ‘good’.
