1968 AC 428 Convertible by Frua

This striking 1968 AC 428 Convertible is a rare gem amongst the approximately 80 ever produced with coachwork by Frua during its seven-year run. One of about 29 convertibles made, this classic British automobile, chassis CF14, features an aluminum body on a steel ladder-frame chassis, providing a unique blend of strength and lightness. Originally owned by whisky heir and privateer Formula One team owner Rob Walker, the car underwent development changes before being commissioned to Frua's elegant design. It retains its original 5.0-liter Ford V8 engine producing around 271 horsepower, mated to a 4-speed manual transmission for raw driving pleasure. Currently situated in Missouri, United States, this iconic motorcar presents an excellent opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts alike to acquire and restore one of the rarest British convertibles ever built.
