1963 Daimler V8250 - Matching Numbers, Beautiful condition SOLD
The Daimler was stripped down and treated to full re-paint which has been carried out to an excellent standard. The chrome work was renewed, and the car treated to all new rubbers. The interior was fully re-trimmed with Magnolia leather, new door cards, headlining, carpets, re-finished woodwork and instruments overhauled. Mechanically the Daimler was treated to an engine rebuild to include line boring the block, new pistons, machining the crankshaft, new main and big end bearings, new timing chain and tensioners and rebuilding the cylinder heads. Carburettors were overhauled, the water pump rebuilt, fuel pump replaced, and a new thermostat and viscus fan fitted. Further mechanical work included new ball joints, brake overhaul, wiring and replacement of various ignition items. New tyres and chrome wire wheels were fitted and nine years later the Daimler still presents beautifully.
In March 2019 the Daimler was imported to the UK having been purchased for in the region of £25, 000 plus shipping and has had one Midlands based owner since. The Daimler was UK registered and allocated the registration mark WRT 220A and has since had some gentle mileage over the summer months prior to coming to us in part exchange against an Aston Martin Volante. The V8 has arrived in showroom condition boasting a beautiful paint finish, exceptional straight bodyshell with excellent panel gaps, gleaming brightwork and a lovely presented interior trim. On the road WRT 220A is impressive having covered very little mileage since its engine rebuild and mechanical overhaul. The V8 engine pulls beautifully holding correct oil pressure, gear changes are smooth, and the Daimler handles wonderfully. This is a fabulous looking car, is structurally outstanding and ideal for regular use.
