Bristol 401 coming up for auction

[William401]

I was in the area and called at the auction house for a quick look at the 401.
The body is in pretty good condition however the chassis has succumbed to being outside for many years. The rear of the main chassis is badly rusted and holed at the rear corners. Most of the outriggers are holed. Much of the interior seems to be missing and there is a small plate on the engine block in the usual place where it cracks. I've attached photos of the right hand rear corner of the main chassis and the left hand corner looking forward as well as a view of what I could see of the rear left hand end of the chassis where the bumper would mount. Unfortunately I was in clean clothes for a meeting and sans boiler suit so didn't crawl about much. I still got grubby tho.
