Vehicle Description

The Vauxhall Cresta PA was introduced in October 1957 and represented a dramatic departure from its very round bull nose predecessor the PA remains one of the most distinctive British saloons of the post-war era. American themed the US culture exerted an increasingly powerful influence over British tastes. The PA combined American inspired styling with dimensions better suited to European roads. The very first PAs had the distinctive dog-leg windscreen, pronounced tail fins, elaborate grille, and the 3 piece rear windscreen that was phased out after a year or two. A generous bench seat to the front allowed 6-person seating in comfort. Other features of the early models are the stainless-steel gutter rails, split-top rear indicators, narrow front quarter lights, early boot mouldings. Powered by Vauxhalls super sweet 2,262 cc overhead-valve straight-six, producing approximately 82.5bhp, coupled to a three-speed all-synchromesh manual transmission operated via a steering-column change. The PA we have here is a multi-award-winning example and is superb in every way, finished in Pine Green with Saddle Brown interior. The bodywork is super straight, the chrome is gleaming, interior plush with its all leather seats, she sits beautifully on the wide white wall radial 185 tyres, engine is super quiet and retains its auto choke for easy starting, the 3-speed synchro gearbox shifts perfectly, brakes, clutch, electrics all perform as they should. A superb example of this increasingly rare model the is open for any inspection.
