Condition
-
Mechanical condition
The engine and gearbox are in perfect working order, indicating that it has been properly maintained. Using a Power spark kit, the distributor/ignition is switchless. Brakes work normally, with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes from a VW 1500 from 1968. The wheels are replica Porsche 914 2.0Ls with Pirelli Cinturato tires that have only seen two summer seasons of use.
-
Interior condition
The interior is made of leather that is in good condition and free of flaws. The white vinyl headliner is in good shape, all of the instruments work, and the floor mats are attached to removable molded inserts. The pedals are abrasion-prone. The heating system is fully functional, with defroster nozzles and vents that can be opened for foot heating, thanks to the engine heating chambers. Two channels that pick up air from the front/spoiler bring fresh air into the compartment. With side windows, the ducts are controlled by cable-controlled dampers and provide good ventilation.
-
Exterior condition
The body is in excellent condition and has not been damaged. There are a few small scratches in the paint, as well as a few stone chips on the nose (see photos). The chassis and metal body parts have no rust damage. The mirror glass in the right outer mirror has a fuzzy appearance due to background release.
-
General condition
This Reeva is one of, if not the best, VW-based sports cars we've seen. The car is handcrafted to the highest standards by skilled craftsmen who have prioritized drivability and comfort, as well as insulation and ventilation (which is often never prioritized).

Facts about the model
Under slutet av 60-talet ändrades dock de svenska bestämmelserna för amatörbyggda bilar. Det blev mycket svårare att få bilarna godkända. Vi vet idag inte om de tre bilarna med V8 någonsin blev helt färdigställda. Men ett antal Reeva GT bilar finns kvar, varav den som nu säljs på Bilweb Auctions är i toppskick.
Just det här exemplaret är byggt av kände karossmakaren och fordonsbyggaren Karl-Ola Englund i
Karlsholmsbruk som den andra Reeva GT han har byggt. Den första färdigställdes i mitten/slutet av sextiotalet och användes på den tiden som "bruksfordon”. Bilen såldes efter några år i tjänst men på åttiotalet blev längtan efter en ny Reeva GT för stor. Karl-Ola fick då köpa karossformarna från modellens båda skapare Dan Werbin och Holger Brånby och byggde denna bil som sedan har använts till finåkning i drygt 4000 mil under 25 års tid.
OBS! Ej testad/genomgången av Bilweb Auctions. Beskrivningen bygger på ägarens uppgifter. Vinnande budgivare får själv kontrollera och bedöma bilens skick innan den hämtas.

Auction information
General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
