History
The nda V12 DHC was manufactured in 1939 on a short wheelbase chassis (chassis 14102). After completing the bodywork production, the car was shipped on February 1, 1940 to the US and then transferred to Argentina where it remained for many years. About 15 years ago, it was discovered and transported back to rope and became the property of a gentleman from which it was bought by the current owner.

Quality
The car is made with a cabriolet aluminum body and ‘Rapide’ fenders. The body was designed and fabricated by Frank Feeley, the engine being referred to by many as ’s masterpiece. The car was one of the last 189 built nda V12’s after the outbreak of World r II. This particular V12 – 4.5 litre engine in this car was supplied to the same specification as the V12 Le s race cars, which came in third and fourth place in the 1939 Le s 24h race. Like these Le s racing cars, this car is fitted with a four SU D4L carburettors, a special inlet manifold, special camshafts and valves and an increased 8.5:1 compression ratio compared to the 7:1 standard. Sufficient ventilation in the bonnet ensures adequate ventilation of the engine compartment. Just like Le s race cars, the car has the same type of improved hydraulic drum brakes.

The first owner is not known but it was most likely one of the departments of the government
of Argentina and used for visits to the ssy.
When it returned to rope, she was fairly complete, but in a condition requiring a total renovation. The vehicle was restored gradually from 2012 to 2331     [Email er]
