Description

1946 Standard 4/ 8A

Running and ready to use.
Generally in excellent condition for age.

Chassis has been restored some time ago and is totally solid. There are some photos showing the restoration.

Paintwork is good but close up a few areas that could be improved.

Interior appears to be very original. Looks like headlining/ carpets have been replaced but rest of interior has a great original patina.

Engine holding good oil pressure and starts on the button from cold.

Fuel gauge not working but I will be looking at that over the next few weeks.

Chrome parts are probably the worst part cosmetically but acceptable from a distance.

Overall a very solid and useable vintage car to enjoy as is or turn into a show car should you wish.
