Rosengart LR4N2 Cabriolet 1937

At the beginning of the last century, Lucien Rosengart was a French factory owner and engineer who was an important financier and producer of car parts for Peugeot and Citroën, among others. After the production of the cycle cars that were popular at the time, Lucien decided to produce Austin Sevens under license under his own name. This successful LR2 remained in production while the further developed successor LR4 was also brought onto the market in 1931. Despite the industrial nature of the production, the production number was not high. After the Second World War, the success of the LR2 and LR4 was no longer equaled, after which the brand closed its doors in 1955. The LR4N2 Cabriolet from 1937 offered here has a sporty black finish with red accents. The leather of the interior has a beautiful patina. Technically, this Rosengart underwent an engine overhaul at the end of 2021, including a new head gasket and overhauled cooling system. The carburetor has also been overhauled and the oil has been changed. The convertible drives well and reliably, without fluid leakage. The convertible top is intact, but some snaps could be replaced. What is extra special is that there is a certificate from the German Rosengart Museum, proving its origin. When imported in 1979, the RDW mistakenly registered the year of manufacture as 1930. The actual year of construction of 1937 has been verified by the Rosengart Museum. To get a good idea of the lot, we advise you to come to the viewing day.
