Beschreibung
The car was built 50 years ago from an original 1925 Saloon the chassis was shortened the radiator, gearbox most of the clocks and most of the running gear was used. The engine was a 3 litre with a cone clutch and C type gbox. The mags are original as well as radiator cowling.
The Vanden Plas body is partly original the wings were new.
Then around 10 years ago a new 4. 5 block and converted the car to 3/ 4 1/ 2.
Phoenix crank & rods with new lightened flywheel are fitted the carbs mags etc were moved onto the new engine.
The original C type gbox was upgraded to straight cut gears from Brineton Engineering and a overdrive with modern plate clutch fitted. It goes like a rocket and is lovely to drive.
The car was painted cream with black wings in the 70’s and then changed to British racing green in the late 80’s.
The car has remained in the family for all these years, being driven around the roads of Shropshire on fun days out to many a wedding hire!
