Well that's my wife in the background of the second shot so I would suggest it's more truck or bus sized rather than car I didn't have the forethought to measure it but I am back there next year with a bit of luck.

I found this old chassis while wandering around the sandhills in talacre North Wales. It has been cut and the main rails used as fence posts in the fifties probably when this area was covered in home built seaside huts. I know it's a big ask but someone may recognise the spring end of the rail that hasn't been cropped off.

Possibly an electric van, anybody any ides?

Reminds me of a 50s Studebaker possibly a customised one or showcar?

Interesting looks like there are a set of rear wing extensions on the one in the woods. wing1.bmp wing2.bmp

Siva cars in the UK used to do some Edwardian style cars in the 70s and this web site notes them 'casting their own artillery wheels' but lists the size as 18 inches could they be another version of these? http://www.sivaedwardian.co.uk/tourer_9.html

That key slip so made me laugh!! My bowels have never had a screw in the back either.

Agreed not the prettiest Morgan ever built!

Its considered to be an aerodynamic tweak thats allowed in the rules you have to have wipers but it dosnt say where they have to be parked, how much good it would do is debatable.

Looks like one.

Ok so I know this is a Vauxhall Cresta but I've a feeling I've seen that side trim on a 50s/60s american motor, maybe upside down anybody else recognise it or was it a sixties accessory. cheers guys.

Not sure if the stripes go all the way over the top on the example in the book.

scan through this lot, if its out there its on here. http://justacarguy.blogspot.co.uk/2010/08/hood-ornament-identifiaction-guide.html

It is in England Casper, it was taken in a Northern town called Leigh in 1902.

Any ideas what the vehicle in the background of this photo is? looks to have a set of wide wheels on the front makes me think its more commercial rather than private car.

Nice one! I've just googled it and it would make sense as they produced right hand drive ones in South Africa for Australia and presumably the UK market.

Very distinctive estate over here in England what is it? and what approx. year please.

very honest of you Leif! thanks Hanski, I was googling much more exotic makes trying to find it.

Fantastic Leif! thanks for that I would never have found that.

Any ideas if this is Automotive or not? If so what is it off?

Looks like a very early Morris Minor one to me

The tag for calibration suggests it for something that needed to be verified very precisely and repeatedly, so not automotive in my eyes, but very interesting.

As I said on the other thread reminds me of a Puch engine.
