1967 Bristol 409 Coupe

    1967 Bristol 409 Navigation
    Though not widely known in the United States, Bristol is legendary among those who appreciate its combination of build quality, exclusivity, reliability, and performance. Before building cars, Bristol built airplanes, many of which served the United Kingdom well during World War II. After the war, Bristol built a reputation for producing hand-made automobiles that were unique and distinguished but also elegant and understated.

    Introduced in 1965 and produced through 1967, the Bristol 409 cost a formidable $11,265 in 1967. That princely sum bought a 5.2 liter Chrysler 318 cubic inch V8 engine, 3-speed push-button Torqueflite automatic transmission, as well as optional ZF power steering and four-wheel Girling disc brakes. This example is the final of 79 409s built.

    With a top speed of over 125 miles per hour, the Bristol was a credible alternative to Aston Martin, Bentley, and Jaguar.

    The 409 has a hand-formed aluminum body and a pair of access panels in front of the doors. The right side houses the battery and brake servo and the left side houses the spare tire.
    This example was purchased from the estate of the original importer, who had worked in London for many years. The car has been subject to a full mechanical and bodywork restoration over the past three years.

    These cars are very rare in the U.S. and represent a truly hand-built and old world 'gentleman's express'. This is likely the only running restored Bristol 409 in the country.
