Ulster details/Photographs

[Robert Leigh]

Has anyone ever taken a sounding of how many "original" cars are still with us,or coined a registry of such rare creatures ?
I've been searching for several years for a genuine Ulster with no success ... in a market that's awash with incredibly rare exotica the Austin Sports is indeed a unicorn.

Hi Albert
All original genuine Ulsters and TT are accounted for. All reconstructed Ulsters and TT from few original parts are known ie. a car built around an engine, around a chassis or a panel of an original car. The rest (90% of the total around) are replica's being on a short or long chassis are immediately recognisable from the inaccuracy of the body measurements, the wrong engine, the wrong chassis etc.
Price reflect this. No doubt we have seen cars being describe as original in fact they belong to the 90% Ulsters replica's out there.

Really? I'd like to see you prove that... We have original Ulster parts that aren't on cars, and have cars that have some original parts.

Copies of the original ledgers have been created by my dad after lots of time in Gaydon archives. (You aren't allowed to take photos). It doesn't cover the full timeframe that "Ulsters" were produced as some ledgers were destroyed / lost.

Ledgers, click on the arrows to view the others.

Many thanks to your dad for his ledger copying the hard way. I have finally proved that a suspected Ulster is genuine.
