1956 Daimler Conquest Century Saloon

Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this 1956 Daimler Conquest Century Saloon. Very attractive in black over green leather interior, it's a nicely restored example both mechanically and cosmetically. Concours-quality paint and body; exceptionally straight and slick with a deep shine. Excellent panel gaps and door fitment, including the precise overlay of the fenders with the leading edges of the front doors tucked behind. 

Interior shows beautifully with excellent wood throughout, door panels, headliner, carpets and interior trim. Green leather seat upholstery has a lovely patina but does not show excessive wear. Lights and indicators are working as they should, including the original trafficator semaphores (even the cancel function when rolling out of a turn still works properly).

The type DJ256 Conquest Century was fitted with a nicer trim and a more powerful engine (which allows it to achieve a higher top speed) than the standard Conquest. Under the hood is a smooth-running 2.4 litre inline six cylinder engine mated to an innovative four-speed preselector gearbox. The drivetrain was fully rebuilt when this car was restored and all systems --
engine, gearbox, steering, brakes, etc -- are working well.  Even after extended highway and city driving on a hot Atlanta summer day, the coolant temperature never got above 190 degrees Fahrenheit. 

Easily among the nicest and best-sorted Daimler Conquest Century saloons available anywhere. For more information about this 1956 Daimler Conquest DJ256 for sale at Motorcar Studio in Atlanta, please call 404-692-5250.
