Overview of 1974 Clenet Series 1 Replica For Sale by Owner

Dabbling in classic cars is lovely, but what if you want something different? Why not look to America’s host of smaller manufacturers and coachbuilders for inspiration? Clenet Coachworks is a great place to start, as this company made 1930s-inspired cars in the 1970s and 1980s. Headquartered in Santa Barbara, California, there’s not a lot of information about them on the Interwebs. In fact, the company does exist to a degree, as its current owner, Sir Alfred J. DiMora, operates a company called DiMora Motorcar. Why not pay homage to this quirky automaker and buy this 1974 Clenet Series 1 Roadster Replica? With a reportedly original 422 miles on the clock, this car comes with up-to-date servicing and a great V8 under all that vintage-look bodywork.

Exterior and Interior

Wearing red paintwork, this 1974 Clenet Series 1 Roadster Replica is a sight to behold. Your eyes will tell you that the design is quintessentially 1930s, yet there are some modern cues if you look hard enough. For example, the whitewall tires that wrap around the wire-styled wheels are definitely wider than what 1930s cars would have rolled on. Perhaps the most significant indicator of modernity will be on display when the convertible roof is down because then we get a great look at the interior. Speaking of which, the tan leather-upholstered interior of this 1974 Clenet Series 1 Roadster Replica comes with two seats and a wood-trimmed dashboard as highlights. There’s a bevy of AutoMeter white-faced gauges that lend a classic look but are unmistakably modern since their white is a pure shade and not the yellow-hued one of yesteryear. You’ve also got a Vintage Air air conditioning system, a Grant GT steering wheel, and a modern stereo system with proper speakers behind the seats. You’ll also notice the automatic transmission selector from a B&M shifter.

Engine

This 1974 Clenet Series 1 Roadster Replica enjoys ample shove, thanks to its Ford 400ci V8 and 3-speed automatic transmission propelling the vehicle via rear-wheel drive. You’ve also got power-assisted steering and disc brakes for a distinctively modern driving experience. So you can enjoy vintage styling, tastefully blended with modern engineering and creature comforts. What’s even nicer is that you’ll own something rare.
