1924 Jowett Short Two

Beautifully restored; nicely detailed and on the button; very pretty indeed; ideal LC&ES mount for VSCC activities

This exquisite little Short Two Jowett sadly comes with nothing in the way of history bar the current V5C. It has however quite clearly been beautifully and sympathetically restored and with little work could be a concours contender.

The chassis has been coach painted just as it would have been in period, and the exterior paintwork professionally applied to a very high standard, in a lovely powder blue hue.

The interior has been retrimmed in correct black ‘vegetable dye’ hide rather than the soft modern leather so often incorrectly used in the restoration of early vehicles and it has proven mechanically fit (bar a slipping clutch) since arrival on site.

It is running 12 volts which has meant instant starting and what little brightwork Jowett added in period has been nickelled and not chromed.

Sitting on beaded-edge tyres, it is delightful and would be very welcome at any VSCC or Light Car event – not much else to say other than whoever restored the car knew exactly what they are doing…
