Another car leaving us today, but this time it’s one that has been with us for quite some time.
This Daimler Double Six Coupe has been with us since 2022 undergoing a full nut and bolt restoration. In this video you’ll see the final walkaround before it is reunited with its owner.
When it first arrived it was without doubt the rustiest coupe we had ever seen. Nearly 1,000 hours were spent on welding and fabrication work alone. With many replacement panels no longer available, a large number of sections had to be hand fabricated in house.
Under the bonnet, the original 5.3-litre V12 has been uprated to 6.1 litres, while the rest of the car remains largely true to its original specification aside from a different gearbox.
Painted in Jaguar Portofino Blue and trimmed in dark red leather, it’s been an incredible restoration journey which we will do another post to show some before and afters.
We’d like to thank the owner for trusting us with such a special project, and we wish them many enjoyable miles behind the wheel.
