Yesh!  It's a BOND!  An Equipe 2+2 which like the Gilbern is a rare four seater.  Your chance to acquire James for road or competition use starts here! Registered AOJ 339B the previous owner thought it might stand for Any Odd Job.  The car is from 1964 and the model was homologated for competition use and performed honourably in the 1964 Monte Carlo Rally.  The Equipe was based on a slightly modified Triumph Herald chassis with the popular and Prevous owners with the Equipe at a show tuneable Triumph Spitfire engine.  450 of these were made, fewer than 30 survive and perhaps fewer than 20 are on the road.

This example has been in dry storage for many years, re-trimmed in the late 1970s it has been used little since.  It is very original and, unusually, complete and though much of the paint hasA small pile of parts been stripped the glass fibre body is in good condition.    The rear has been used to make a mould so some of the rear lights have been removed but they are in the small pile of parts that come with the car.
