1948 Alvis TA 14 Navigation
This Alvis TA 14 wears a Drophead Coupe body supplied by Carbodies and is one of just 400 examples believed produced. The car was dispatched on August 30th of 1948 to the British Embassy in Washington D.C. where its first owner was employed as the Civil Air attaché. The history picks up four decades later when it appeared for sale in a 1986 Alvis Club publication. More recently, it has resided in collections in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and Sun City West, Arizona prior to acquisition by its current caretaker in March of 2005.

This Alvis currently has fewer than 48,800 actual miles.
