I have certainly never seen one of these and I can’t imagine what it’s doing in the US.
This seems to have a transverse I6 and thus front-wheel drive. Basically, it’s a microcar limo, of sorts.

Interior is pretty much classic 60s British, but the shifter is, umm, interesting.
There’s space, but not seating for a large number of celebrities.

MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to present one of the most unique limousines we have had in our showroom with this 1967 Wolseley Six limousine you see before you. This limo was taken off the line and converted to a private car by coach builder Woodall and Nicholson of Halifax, United Kingdom. Spending most of its life as a private car in the U.K. then shipped to the U.S., this car has gone through a rotisserie restoration including a Bluetooth entertainment system. This limo will turn heads on U.S. roads or anywhere in the world!
If you had asked engineering maestro Sir Alec Issigonis to name his favorite car out of all those he had designed, you’d expect him to mention the Morris Minor or Mini. So it might come as a surprise to learn that the model he was most proud of was the good old LandCrab, a nickname it acquired thanks to its awkward looks and unusually wide stance.
Modeled after the codenamed ADO17 from British Motor Corporation, this “Landcrab” is a Mark I. It has undergone a fantastic restoration and would look great as an advertising tool or for a special event.
The exterior is a deep black that will stand out at any special event, and the Lucas headlights will light the way on a night out. The black vinyl top is in good condition, and this modified limo sits on four Wolseley wheels wrapped in All Season tires measuring P195/70R14. Two rearview mirrors have been added, making this limo safer to drive.
The interior has been restored in an amazing fashion, and the dashboard is in impeccable condition. The black and silver vinyl seats feel brand new, and we will note this limo is a right-hand drive. There is a Grant wooden steering wheel and Smiths gauges measuring fuel, temperature, oil pressure, speed and an analog clock. The velour headliner was restored to a great condition and feels soft and luxurious. An aftermarket Kenwood Excelon stereo with Bluetooth has been installed, and the sliding glass divider provides the classic limousine feel.
The 135.9-CID inline six-cylinder engine is unique in that it sits perpendicular to the car rather than parallel. However, it still makes for an incredibly driving experience as this limo drives fantastically and has some eyebrow-raising power for a British car. The engine is mated with an automatic transmission.
This unique limousine will surely stand out in any collection, so don’t miss your opportunity to make it your own! Mileage currently reads 38,680, VIN is WHS367653, and it is being sold on a clear Arizona title. GET OUT AND DRIVE!
