Annie: an Unique vintage car!
Built in Italy in 1921 as a rolling chassis, powerful engine with modern techniques such as overhead camshaft (OHC) and a crossflow cylinder head. Shipped to New Zealand, equipped with a 2 seater sporty open body, built by Stevens & son from Christchurch (NZ) and cherished by 1 owner since 1960 please note! Mr. Stephenson from Christchurch! Annie even emigrated with him to Perth, Australia. Participated in many events see all the plaques on the dashboard. Mr Stephenson has always maintained Annie very well and found 2 extra engines and gearboxes as spares.
Annie has an extensive documentation folder with information about Ansaldo, including a manual and parts book (copy) but also old photos, the oldest from 1960!
In 2015 Annie was brought back to Europe by us! Back then we won a prize at the Concours D’Elegance in Antwerp and now for sale.
