1957 AC Aceca Bristol

One of just 169 Bristol-engined AC Acecas built at the marque’s Thames Ditton factory between 1954 and 1963.

Owned by renowned racing commentator and motoring journalist John Bolster – the man who originally road tested the AC Aceca for Autosport magazine.

Cherished in the long term ownership of Jim Fitzgerald for an impressive 45 years.

Subject of a bare metal body restoration and paint in the hands of Spraytech Restorations during 2013, followed by a full engine and gearbox rebuild by IN Racing in 2019, all totalling over £70,000 of work.

A fantastic entry for some of the world’s best road rally events and recent participant in the Mille Miglia, Tour Auto and Zoute Grand Prix Rally.
