Approaching the big five-oh, I wanted to do something special to commemorate the occasion. And what could be better than to get another Singer Gazelle like the one we used to have? So since this is a British car, I turned next to some of my friends in the Aston Martin Owners Club. And they found for me this red-and-white 1962 Singer Gazelle Series III convertible. We were elated. After extensive e-mail correspondence getting first, second, and third opinions, getting answers to my
seemingly endless questions, and even getting a friend to test drive the car and report back, we finally decided it had sufficient sentimental value to be worth buying, and wired the money. We had the soft top repaired in England and while that was going on made the arrangements to ship the car to Japan. Once it got here, we unwrapped it and played excitedly with our new toy, and I am currently having a ball working on restoring it."
Yasuhiko has now completed the restoration from the red car he imported to the beautiful pale blue replica of his first Gazelle. Below is a picture of the car as imported, plus some pictures of progress through the restoration process .
