The Godsal was a sports car designed in 1935 by Charles Godsal (1907-1965), son of barrister and inventor Herbert Godsal, and built by Research Engineers Ltd of London, UK.
The Godsal Sports Tourer incorporated a contemporary Ford Flathead V8 engine with single dual-throat carburetor achieving approximately 85 bhp at 5,500 rpm, 4-speed Riley preselector transmission, sliding pillar front suspension with live rear axle, 4-wheel drum brakes, and coachwork by Corsica Coachworks.
The Godsal V8 Corsica featured prominently in the 1969 movie Mosquito Squadron.
The car featured more recently in an episode of chasing classic cars with Wayne Carini at F40.
Re-restored after its original purchase by Bob Morris in 2017, it took top prize in the Amelia concourse event of 2020.
It was sold again by Bonhams at Amelia in 2021.
