| 1956 Standard Super Eight Saloon For Sale edit C39702 | | | http://www.classic-sportscar.co.uk | | The trick with classic cars is finding the really good ones. Examples where the previous owner has expended way more in time and money than could ever be reasonably recouped. These cars are restored with a passion. The very thick file that accompanies this car is testament to such a rebuild.
The car was first registered in Devon in January 1956 and only completed some 12,000 Mls in the first 12 yrs. Being a Super Eight there are features such as a heater, interior lights, and a boot that can be accessed from inside the car. The model also featured a four speed gearbox when most rivals suffered with only three. The comprehensive restoration started in 1989 and took some five years to complete. The car has been seen regularly at the Yeovil Festival of Transport where I am sure it will have been much admired.
I had a short drive today and simply could not find fault with the car. It really is like a two year old, rather than a 52 year old. Mileage from new is thought to be around 57,000 Mls. Highly recommended.
