Most American collectors are not familiar with the Alvis Marque. In its day, and even in today's world, the Alvis is a highly developed motor car which was found to be in the same price range as the Bentley and other fine cars of that era. This Alvis type TA21 was announced in 1950 looking much like its four cylinder TA14 predecessor but featuring independent front suspension and a new, overhead valve, six cylinder, three litre engine. Styled along classic, pre-war lines, the Three Litre was reckoned by Autocar Magazine to appeal to 'discerning owners who appreciate quality and good handling as well as performance. Tickford body builders built 302 dropheads and most were right-hand drive as is this one. The drophead coupes were announced in the 1951 season and the introduction of open-top models was calculated to boost sales in the United States market where Alvis was beginning to make an impact. Perhaps the best thing about it is that many of the handling characteristics of the sports car have been built into the chassis which combined with a low center of gravity and a reasonable amount of space, make this fine car something of a compromise suited to those who want both family car and sportscar features all in one. Known as having 'Gray Lady Head' (shape) this car has a new crankshaft and bearings just prior to shipping it to the US in March of 2018, new brake cylinders all around (6), a new radiator and a high ratio differential (3.3 to 1) for effortless cruising, Petronics ignition in the distributor so no starting problems, excellent tires and good history.

Alvis https://www.hotrodhotline.com/forsale/vehicles/alvis/other/1952/listing/248114 1953 Alvis TC 21/100 is a right-hand drive “Grey Lady” drophead coupe that was reportedly sold new in England and imported to the US some time ago. Finished in burgundy and black over brown upholstery, the car is powered by a matching numbers 3.0-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual gearbox. Features include a tan soft top, front driving lamps, fender-mounted side mirrors, and knock-off wire wheels. The car was acquired by the seller around a year ago. The previous owner is said to have repaired/replaced transmission leaks and replacing the freeze plugs, battery, and fluids. This Alvis is being offered at no reserve with a fitted car cover, Alvis Owner’s Club items, spare parts, marque literature, an extensive library, tools, photos from the aforementioned work, and a clean South Carolina title in the seller’s name. The car is said to be one of approximately 81 Tickford-bodied examples produced (Same coach builder as Bentley), and is finished in two-tone burgundy and black and features a tan convertible top, rear-hinged doors, fender-mounted side mirrors, and Trafficator turn signals. Mismatched front driving lamps, removed by seller to unclutter the front view; one for Fog and the other for driving are supplied with the sale of the car. The driver-side front fender was repaired and repainted during previous ownership, and the rear wheel spats and engine vent panels were replaced. The brightwork is said to have been re-chromed at that time and aftermarket rear turn signals were added. Cracking paint is evident on the body, and the seller notes that two bolt holes in the driver-side front fender are rusted. Cracked bodywork is present ahead of the driver’s door. Silver-finished wire wheels are secured by two-eared knock-off spinners and mounted with American Classic whitewall tires. A full-size spare is included in the sale. Braking is through hydraulically actuated drums at all four corners. The right-hand drive cabin houses seats trimmed in brown. Alvis
