1964 Alvis TE21 Series III Drophead Coupe

The Alvis Car company of Coventry, England, became known for its grand tourers, with modern engineering and fine custom-built coachwork.

This car represents the penultimate model, the TE-21, which employed the most developed iteration of the six-cylinder engine with a modified cylinder head, producing 130 horsepower. Penned by Swiss-designer Graber and built by Mulliner Park Ward of London, this is one of two TE-21 Drophead Coupes built as left-hand drive and remains the only survivor. Originally finished in green over green with a black top, this car was delivered new to actor Tony Curtis while he resided at the Grosvenor and Dorchester hotels in London. The current owner has enjoyed the car since 1992 and drives it extensively.
