Hello: I have a 1959 LLoyd Alexander TS, LHD, also numerous mechanical parts. They're a great little car, fun to drive. The Alexander has steel body panels that just bolt together, like a meccano set. The idea was so that in an accident, owners could just buy a new panel, and bolt it on themselves. The Alexander 1957 - 1961 was an air-cooled 600 cc 19 HP four stroke twin, O H cam , all bearings were ball / roller, not shell, with heads very similar to Porsche design, and the more luxurious Alexander TS (1958 - 61) also similar engine but tweaked to 25 HP. The engine is nearly bullet-proof. Very strong and reliable, and efficient. Prior to the Alexander, the LP300 (1950 to 1951) was a fabric bodied 10 HP, and developed into the LP 400 13HP (1953 - 57), then to LP 600 19 HP, built alongside the Alexanders until closing in 1961 (another story). A lot of people call any Lloyd an Alexander, which is not true. If he belongs to the Borgward Club, then he should be correct, must be 1957 - 1961. Lloyd also made in 1959 to 1961 a more modern design 900cc 45 HP Arabella. In Australia, a different version of the Alexander was made, with local panels but same drive train, called a Lloyd Harnett. These may have been exported to HK. Ian.
