1991 Ginetta G33

A barn find G33 3.9litre V8 once owned by world-famous author Frederick Forsyth.

HISTORY
Thought to be the only black G33 ever made and purchased from the son of author Frederick Forsyth – fax correspondence with the author comes with the car. Mileage reads as 14,700 and is believed to be correct. Purchased in 2014 by the current owner who is the owner of his own specialist sports car manufacturer. Sadly unused since, the car ran and drove when parked in ’14 but now is being sold as a non-running barn find. A new battery and some new fuel should see the car start right up.

SPECIFICATION
Black with red leather, full roof canvas and side screens, alloy wheels, 3.9 litre Rover V8 with 5-speed manual gearbox, pop-up headlamps, Kenwood speakers, stainless steel exhaust (in excellent condition).

CONDITION
In remarkably good condition considering its lack of use for the last 11 or so years, the glassfibre bodywork has some marks and some light damage on the bonnet where a screw on the engine has pushed through. The interior is pretty good as well and would probably clean up very well. The chassis clearly has some surface rust, the worst to the front of the car but we don’t believe any welding will be needed. The wheels are still in good shape and the roof and roof frame are present and in good shape, but the car will clearly need recommissioning and light restoration. Thankfully during its time off the road the car has been dry stored. Will need to be trailered away. The last two pictures show the car in period on a track day.
