1935 Standard R10 SOLD

Standard cars were manufactured from the early 1900's, the name Standard referred to their very high Standard of construction. They were on a par with Rovers of the time and in my opinion much more highly engineered than Austin and Morris cars I have owned.

This car is a 1935 model which had not changed from 1934, it has a 1343cc engine and seats four people in comfort.

The car had only two owners until I bought it after the death of the second owner. It came from Wiltshire and was used up until the late 1990's when the second owner bought it and took it to the home counties.

I don't think it has ever been restored although it has had sympathetic repairs over the years. It benefits from a new headlining and restored sunshine roof which is water tight. The front seats have been reupholstered with hide to match the interior All the door cards etc are original and excellent.

I have had a new laminated windscreen fitted. The engine has had it's valve seats recut and new valves have been fitted. A Standard club oil filter conversion has been added the dynamo is reconditioned and a new distributer is fitted. The carburettor is new (old stock)and it has a new battery and a new voltage control box. Also a new fuel pump and pressure regulator.

The car has been fully professionally waxoyled.

I covered 100 miles in February with complete reliability. The car is ready for immediate use and could be driven away.

This is a useable car not a mothballed show car it has a lovely patina and is very close to original. The bodywork and paint is very presentable.

The reason for the sale is to make way for a new project.

Part exchange considered.

Delivery in England and Wales possible.
