1927 12/ 4 'Windsor' Genuine 'Barn Find' - in 'Oily Rag Condition' but as sound as they come. Abandoned in a dry barn for 53 years, 3 custodians have repaired, added, replaced, serviced and maintained this fabulus example in almost original condition. Used daily, starts on the button, mechanically brilliant, new brake linings, new ignition, new tyres, additional LED discrete turn signals and stop lamps, good oil pressure and rebored. New exhaust system. Very well received at shows for being in unadulterated condition [renovate if you must but it will only be original once] It even has the original tools in the bulkhead
A no-profit, no risk sale by the current custodian - VAR, ATDC, PWA7 member.

This 'Barn Find' needed rescuing after 53 years untouched. A well documented story - sold for scrap for '30 bob' due only to tyres not being available, a farmer bought it for '50 shillings' with a view to restoriing it - but didn't get around to it. Genuine 'Barn Finds' are treasure to behold - especially as mechanically perfect as this example is. This is my daily car, people are astonished it is so original - but it now needs a new custodian to keep it sweet. Renovate if you must, it will be worth £20, 000 when simply repainted.
Dozens of calls were made but Stockport is a long way, no-one could be bothered to view it. Don't just watch it - buy it, enjoy it.
