Vintage & Classic Car Collection
Ceylon, ‘the pearl of the Indian ocean’ has had numerous wonderful and exotic automobiles imported into the island during the first half of the twentieth century; unfortunately, many have since left its shores. In the early seventies, the government of Sri Lanka realized of its rich automotive heritage and brought in legislation prohibiting the export of these automobiles under the Antiquities Act. Of the handful that remains in the country, some lie derelict, and it is hoped that this publication will serve as a source of inspiration for their restoration.
Our vintage & classic car collection of over 70 automobiles illustrates the evolution of cars that presents an artful perspective tracing the major role that the automobile has played relative to history, culture, industry, and innovation. Take a look at our diverse collection of automobiles from many different eras.
