Summary
This 1961 Borgward Isabella coupe was purchased by a US serviceman in the 1970s, stored for decades, and acquired by the seller in 2013. Subsequent mechanical recommissioning included cleaning the fuel system, rebuilding the brakes, and installing new whitewall tires, with approximately 3,000 miles added since. The car features an older finish that was professionally color-sanded and polished, original vinyl upholstery, and is powered by a 1.5-liter inline-four paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox.
