  One of those would be a great garage companion for my 3 Citroen Tractions. The bumps in the roof fabric are a little worrisome; could there be rot in the wood? Also, I've heard that you can now get flashing LED bulbs for the trafficators.

  The flashing LEDs for the trafficators sound interesting. It would save adding non-standard indicators. The biggest issue I find with trafficators is that drivers behind aren't watching for them and tend to nearly pile into the back of you...then hoot at you. I'm not sure about the bumps in the roof. I guess it could be wood rot, but have never checked. The roof seems solid, but I can't give you a definitive answer on it. Love the Traction Avants. I had a LHD once once, and it drove so much more like a modern car than others in the era.

  Hey, I love your car! I have just purchased an identical 1932 standard big 9. I can't find the chassis number on mine. Do you know where I could look? Thank you :)

  I thought for a moment that you were about to open the boot, but no. Hardly anyone thinks to do so.

  Good point, but its hard to do with one hand holding the camera. It reqires a t-handle key to unlock each side of the bootlid before the lid folds down towards you.

  My British grandfather had a Vauxhall of the same year and model. It had a smooth 6 cylinder engine and a very distinctive transmission sound that distinguished it from other cars. I wonder where that old DX, (I believe that was its model designation) is today. KDF 587 was its number if my memory serves me right?

  My first car back in 1972 was a 2 door split screen. Didn't keep it stock though. 1100 engine, no bumpers, Morris 1100 front sidelight/indicators, VW beetle rear lights, screwed down front torsion bars, uprated lever arm shocks, small steering wheel, rev counter and oil pressure gauge, 5 1/2" x 14" rims with 165 radial tyres and a bucket seat. I used to do production car trials with it and a few nights rallies.

• 
  @loveclassiccars Жыл бұрын

  Awesome :) My first splitscreen was in 1978, when 17. I knocked the big ends out of the original 803cc engine, and replaced it with a 1098c too. At some point when trying to get a backfire out of it I destroyed the exhaust and ended up with a Peco 3" diameter tail pipe coming out under the front door. Hliarious at the time.....

  I had a black 1948 Standard 12 with green leather upholstery and rear window blind. In 1962/63 as a young apprentice, it was not modern look with two wings at the front. However it did everything i asked, to visit British G P at Aintree, weekend trips from Sheffield to London on 100 mile of then new M1. No lighting or central reservation fencing! Thereafter from Cardiff to London. I renewed the valves and did 22000 miles as the sadly last owner! Only now do i understand Standard meant an aspiration to compare with others not the alternative dismissive view!

  Fabulous little cars. Yes, it really was the luxury small family car of its time. My Dad's first car was a Wolseley 10, a 1947 model reg no KBB 469. I have so many happy memories of days out in that car. It was incredibly reliable, never broke down and the only big job I ever remember having to be done for MoT was the kingpins.

  My dad bought one in the mid 50's, in dark metalic green. At 18 yrs old, in was in excellent condition, all leather interior, smooth running and for it's age, quite sporty. This model above, is in a dream-like condition--A FULL RESTORATION ? Wish it was mine.

  My dad's first car when I was a kid in the early 60's. His was one of the last, made in 1947. Reg. EOW 472. I remember the wipers packing up during a torrential downpour, but, you could hand crank them from inside! That became my job. One time we were returning home from town and pulling away from the kerb when the steering failed, --like the wheel turned around and around in my dad's hands! It had to be towed. The leather seats were freezing cold in winter too I recall, no heater in the car of course. No seat belts either. Happy days.
