In 1975 Bristol Cars introduced their first open car since years, the 412. Designed by Zagato in Italy. The S1 version of the 412 is recognizable by the frameless doors. However, this construction had the disadvantage that Bristol Cars had to install a mechanism to automatically lower the side window when the removable roof had to be placed on the car. An expensive solution and also the rigidity of the body suffered from this construction. In total 19 cars of the type S1 were built. The first three cars were built by Zagato, later examples were built by Bristol itself. In all cases with supply of aluminium panels from Coachwork Maggiora, Torino, Italy. It is certain that Zagato built one dark red car, so our model represents the car made by Zagato. It has the Pegasus badge on the grille and Zagato logo on the front wing. This model is only available with Dunlop rims with chromed hubcaps. Customers can place an order through the order form, or email us to order. Normally we produce 100 off of our models, but we will produce only 60 off of the 412 S1. So be quick, or be......out of production.
