This 1975 Bricklin SV-1 is finished in red over a tan interior and powered by a 351ci Windsor V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. The car is equipped with air-actuated gullwing doors, pop-up headlights, 15″ Turbo Mag aluminum wheels, power-assisted front disc brakes, a dual exhaust system, air conditioning, and a factory radio.
The SV-1 features acrylic resin body panels bonded to a fiberglass substrate, which are mounted on a steel frame with an integrated rollover structure. A claimed 2,100 examples were produced for the 1975 model year, and this one was repainted in its current shade of red around 1995. Design cues include pop-up headlights, impact bumpers, and gullwing doors that have been converted to air actuation.
Machine-finished 15″ Turbo Mag aluminum wheels are wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/A white-letter tires that were mounted in 2022. Power steering was equipped as standard along with power-assisted front discs and rear drums.
The bucket seats are covered in two-tone tan vinyl and suede microfiber cloth, and they are accompanied by a color-coordinated dashboard and door panels. Equipment includes a factory radio, a three-spoke President steering wheel, air conditioning, and a rear defroster.
VDO instrumentation includes a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer, while gauges for voltage, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level are located in the center stack.
The Ford-supplied 351ci Windsor V8 was factory rated at 175 horsepower and 286 lb-ft of torque. The seller notes that the alternator was replaced in 2022 and the carburetor was rebuilt in 2023.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Ford FMX three-speed automatic transmission. The exhaust butterfly has been removed.
