Joseph Cockshoot was an English coachbuilder whose firm built carriages from the early 18th century. They had premises in Manchester where they also sold Stanley Steam Cars and during World War I, staff cars and ambulances were provided but the late 1930’s saw production switch to aircraft parts for Avro and the coachbuilding side sadly declined. Lex Garages bought the business in 1968.
The 20/ 25hp Rolls Royce chassis and running gear formed the staple product of the thirties and has proved to be long lasting and remains very useable. A Cockshoot body will be amongst the rarer survivors and this is a very handsome example.
CLY 691 was stripped to bare aluminium by its previous owner, who decided to leave it unpainted because he considered the coachwork to be in such excellent condition that it would have been a shame to cover it up with paint. However, he did carry out renovation work to the ash frame. The chassis is now described as good, as is the upholstery and most of the brightwork has been re-chromed. We are informed that the dashboard and cappings have been reconditioned and the instrumentation is original and in good working order. The Rolls-Royce is fitted with recent new tyres, a rebuilt exhaust system (some of which is stainless steel), a new wiring loom and new rubbers to the running board beading. The rear built-in number plate assembly has been restored and we are informed that the cylinder head has been replaced.
The 20/ 25 is supplied with copies of the original factory build sheets, early invoices, MOT test certificates, invoices for coachwork repairs, chrome plating and mechanical work, and the V5C registration certificate.
