62-Years-Owned 1958 AC Ace-Bristol: A Racing Legend

We are honored to present Chassis BEX469, a remarkably preserved 1958 AC Ace-Bristol that has remained under the stewardship of a single owner since 1964. This left-hand-drive roadster is one of only approximately 463 Bristol-powered examples produced, representing a rare opportunity to acquire a vehicle with an unbroken 62-year history of care, competition, and refinement.

Highlights of Chassis BEX469:
Six Decades of History: Purchased in 1964 and campaigned for decades in the Pennsylvania Hillclimb Association and VSCCA events.

Recent Refurbishment: Underwent a comprehensive four-year restoration (2020–2024) by Richard Mullin Coachbuilding, returning the aluminum body to its striking red finish with silver dorsal stripes.

Award-Winning Pedigree: Fresh off a "Best in Class" win at the 2025 Radnor Hunt Concours d’Elegance.

Race-Ready Engineering: Powered by a 2.0-liter Bristol inline-six with triple Solex carburetors, featuring custom front A-arms, a roll hoop, and a fire suppression system.

This Ace-Bristol is not just a showpiece; it is a "living" sports car that carries the soul of its racing history. It comes complete with an extensive collection of spares, including the original bucket seats, weather gear, and an SCCA logbook.
