1951 Borgward Hansa Custom (3.8lt V6 / 4spd Auto)
Currently Club Registered - QLD Registration Plate S37363
(Previously Club Registered In VIC - Registration Plate 2773H8)
This 1951 Borgward Hansa Is Unlike Anything Else On The Road — A Rare European Classic Transformed Into A Striking Custom Resto-mod. Starting Life As A Humble Post-war Sedan, It Has Been Completely Reimagined With Deep Gloss Black Paintwork, Bold Red Vinyl Trim, And A Stance That Instantly Demands Attention. In A Country Where Borgwards Were Uncommon Even When New, Seeing One Today — Especially One This Unique — Is A Real Event.
The Standout Modification Is The Powerhouse Under The Bonnet: A 3.8-litre V6 Paired With A 4-speed Automatic, Both Sourced From An Early 1990s V6 Commodore. This Gives The Car Genuine Modern Drivability, Reliability, And A Strong Surge Of Performance That The Original Hansa Could Never Have Dreamed Of. The Blend Of 1950s Curves With A Proven Australian Drivetrain Makes It A Fascinating Fusion Of Old-world Charm And Practical, Usable Engineering.
At 70+ Years Old, This Borgward Is Already An Attention-getter By Virtue Of Its Rarity — But Combined With Its Custom Finish, It Becomes A True Head-turner. It’s The Kind Of Car That Draws Crowds At Shows, Gets Waves On The Road, And Sparks Conversations Everywhere It Goes. A Distinctive Resto-mod With Personality, Presence, And Plenty Of Story To Tell, Ready For Someone Who Wants A Classic That Stands Apart From The Pack.
