MECHANICAL REFURBISHMENTS

Restored on the 1990s. Painted the car in its current shade of red and upholstered the interior in red/black with a tan top and tonneau.

 

In early 2014, the ArnoltBristol had been under the mechanical care of DL George Coachworks in Pennsylvania. During this time, the unique gearoperated top was refurbished, as were the brakes, to ensure dependable touring. Additionally, they completed a significant mechanical service of the car prior to its last tour, which amounted to approximately $115,000. The rare Borrani wheels were also fitted with new Dunlop tires.

 

EVENTS

  • This Arnolt-Bristol has since participated on the Colorado Grand, the California Mille, and the Pebble Beach Motoring Classic, and it has been shown multiple times, including at The Quail: A Motorsports Gathering and various concourses.
