Comments of this past auction
Technik: Excalibur präsentierte 1980 sein viertes Modell als Nachfolger des Excalibur Series III. Die Wagen waren deutlich größer als ihre Vorgänger. So wuchs der Radstand um mehr als 30 cm auf 3170 mm. Das Design wurde eigenständiger; man sah deutlich, dass die Karosserien die klassischen Vorgaben nur noch zitierten. Das Fahrzeug ähnelte mehr dem Mercedes-Benz 500 K der 1930er Jahre. Im Angebot standen die Ausführungen als Roadster mit Notsitz und Phaeton, wobei der letztgenannte jetzt auch mit fest installiertem Hardtop lieferbar war. Als Antrieb diente ganz überwiegend der 5,0 Liter große Small-Block-Achtzylindermotor von Chevrolet, der 147 kW (200 PS) abgab. Die Fahrzeuge waren bei 3175 mm Radstand 5258 mm lang, 1905 mm breit und 1499 mm hoch. LGTom
