 |  |  | Tickford Drophead Coupe Chassis Num: VA2550 Engine Num: 6786-5 |
| Sold for $66,000 at 2012 RM Auctions. | |||
Morris was responsible for the four-door saloon body and had the traditional MG grille with two large chromium plated headlights. The other two body styles were a four seat tourer and the Tickford folding head foursome (also known as drophead coupe).
This Drophead Coupe with coachwork by Tickford has been its same ownership for 26 years. It was the subject of a comprehensive restoration in the early 2000s.
In 2011, this vehicle was offered for sale at the Quail Lodge auction presented by Bonhams. It was estimated to sell for $65,000 - $75,000 but its reserve was not met and the car would leave the auction unsold.
