Sunbar ◊ 2008-11-05 12:33	So it appears therefore that the movie company had the rear door of the Standard modified to make it look like two rear doors of the Hillman Minx Estate in about 1951.

sixcyl ◊ 2008-11-06 19:30	No , I don't see why? Could it be an aftermarket modified version from an independant body builder?
greybear ◊ 2008-11-06 20:48	It looks very crude, not like the work of a specialist company. The registration number is that of their real vehicle, the Hillman Minx 'version break' as it is described on a French website.
