1967 Singer Chamois (sport conversion) for sale

This gem of Rootes Cars engineering was my wifes daily driver for around thirteen years,this was after I did a total strip down,all suspension and parts taken off the car for a full respray,we now have another Singer Chamois to rebuild,its a Sport version and car number 610 of only around 2000 built in 1966.

Left click any picture to view full screen and see more detail and yes,the engine was running when I took the pictures!

The engine was rebuilt and  fitted with a Hartwell four branch exhaust system and a pair of Stromberg Carbs,both new (and correct air box) plus an oil cooler as fitted to the sport motors,with a cleaned up cylinder head the car performs really well.The wheels are 13"and 5.5j steel rims with low profile tyres on (new) the car handles better than the car would have on 12" 4.5j rims and high profile tyres.The interior was fully retrimed,seats,carpets and even the headliner.

Spares,here in Cape Town,I carry what is probably the largest spares sets for the Hillman Imp and Singer Chamois range in South Africa.

So Jeans car needs a new owner,the car is licenced and would suit a driver looking for a small classic car with great appeal,priced at R25,000 its very good value,thats about U$3300 or Euros 2600,depending on the exchange rate,we can ship world wide.
