This rare 1956 Bristol 405 Drophead is presented with classic dark blue coachwork. The interior is upholstered in black leather with blue carpets to match the exterior of the car. This particular Bristol was the show model at the Scottish Motor Show in 1956 and was present at Bristol Owners Club Concours throughout the 1980's, winning the award for most improved car twice, both the Best in Class and Ralph Hewitt awards in 1982 before winning the Elite Trophy the subsequent year. This Bristol 405 DHC is an excellent example of a rare 6 cylinder Bristol with only 25 of this historic model believed to be remaining. This elegant soft top Bristol is a timeless classic and provides the drive to match its stunning looks and status. Bristol 405 DHC first registered: August 1956 Chassis No. 405/4517
