Minty ◊ 2010-06-22 15:29	Hello all, Its a 1938-39 Standard 'Flying-14' DHC... I know its not a Lanchester 'Roadrider' as I own one - and whilst similar, their also very diffent! - Sorry!

DHC bodies were made by Mulliner Birmingham, Twelve and Fourteen visually the same. 1937 Flying Standard Twelve DHC -- Last edit: 2019-11-03 12:38:49
