You gotta love this one, it's got a wireless.
Is that an original?
And is that a gas filler
on the back?
IT's LIKE WATCHING DRUNK MONKEYS TRYING TO HUMP A FOOTBALL.

Hi Lynch & Matty, that's right Craig, a Nasco Gear Leaver lock.
Matty, that is a Standard FB door trim. Ek Standard door trims are different again.
Craig's spot on again, the standards had no arm rests & no chrome strips.

This car is also fitted with a HEMCO heater which I haven't seen to many of.
With its astor deluxe radio, parcel shelf, scratch plates, door pulls,
venition, white walls, wheeltrims, headlight protectors, bonnet bird,
sunshade & gear lever lock, it is one dressed up standard.
It makes you wonder why the old farmer (the original owner) didn't order
a special!
Cheers
