Registrazione: LWA 382Telaio n.: 1677Immatricolato il 30 settembre 1948, il telaio n. 1677 era originariamente una Healey Duncan Saloon su un telaio di tipo B. È stato convertito in un buon standard in un periodo di oltre 25 anni fa per replicare una Healey Silverstone, forse utilizzando un telaio di tipo C per parte della costruzi..
Registration: DFR 82 Chassis No: 71L/525Registered 1st May 1948, this is an L-Type Tourer which is understood to have been part of this collection since the middle 1970's. Understood to have been restored around 1986/87, it has seen little service since. It was seemingly Cream when new, at some point Gunmetal Grey, and now it is White in ..
Registration: JNF 39 Chassis No: 71L/407First registered on 16th July 1948, this four-seater tourer wore then, as it does now, Blue paintwork, and presumably the same style leather interior which is present today. It has a wooden dashboard fascia, a combination of Allard, Smiths and Lucas instruments, a Bluemel's Brooklands wire steering ..
Registration: JDH 169 Chassis No: 71K/633This striking K-Series two-seat sportscar in Red looks an eyeful and sits 'just right'. The side profile view of this car is perhaps the most pleasing. The paintwork is largely good, as is most of the brightwork. It has wire wheels which were a period option which few people undertook, and the tyre..
The second incarnation of the Cortina was designed by Roy Haynes and launched on 18th October 1966, four years after the original Cortina. Although the launch was accompanied by the slogan 'New Cortina is more Cortina'. Improvements included a better turning circle, softer suspension, self-adjusting brakes and clutch, together with the availability..
When the Anglia 105E was introduced in September 1959, Ford switched to an overhead valve engine for its smallest family saloon. The 997cc four-cylinder unit proved to be a very reliable unit and lent itself to being tuned, hence the success in Formula 3 and Formula Junior. The suspension retained the McPherson strut at the front and live rear axle..
The squarer-styled Escort Mk. II appeared in January 1975 with the first production models having rolled off the production lines on 2nd December 1974. Unlike the first Escort (which was developed by Ford of Britain), the second generation was developed jointly between the UK and Ford of Germany. Codenamed ‘Brenda’ during its development, it had th..
There are few road and racing cars more instantly recognised than a Lotus Cortina, with its green arrow pointing its way so clearly towards success. Using Ford's eponymous two-door saloon and Colin Chapman's fabulous twin-cam engine, the marriage was a match made in heaven. Chapman commissioned Harry Mundy, he of Coventry Climax fame, to come up wi..
The Triumph Roadster was produced by Britain's Standard Motor Company from 1946 to 1949. It was first available as the Triumph 1800 Roadster from 1946 to 1948 and then as the Triumph 2000 Roadster from 1948 to 1949. Triumph had been purchased by the Standard Motor Company in 1944 and the managing director of Standard, Sir John Black, wanted a sport..
The 1945-1948 Jaguar Mk. IV was Jaguar's first car after World War II and was essentially continuations of the 1938-39 models. Very few of these cars were built for the right hand drive markets as steel was being rationed for goods for export. The origin of the name is rather odd since, back in 1948, there had been no Mk. I to IV Jaguars; the Mk. I..
