Newsletter published six times a year and special issues when needed. From the Editor Hi everyone, Those of you who were not there, are the one’s that missed out on a great time, making new acquaintances and lots of great buys. Yes, I’m speaking about the Pre War Swap Meet that takes place each March in Chickasha, OK. Like every year before, there was a great time had by all that attended. Lots and lots of vendors showing their goods and beautiful cars to be had for the right price. For myself, this year’s trip to the candy store began a good twenty four hours before the meet was to begin, simply to be there when the vendor’s started to arrive. Remember the old saying “The early bird get’s the worm”. In this case, it was true. My quest this year was to find a very special part that would enable me to complete my REO build that has now gone past the completion time allowed to the project. The plans for the carriage had been completed and put up on the website quite a while back and the actual build, for the most part had been done for almost a year now, except for the final steps of painting and reassembly. Thus, the reason for not having any colored pictures on the REO Plans Page of the HCR.com Website.

    Exposé of vehicle-ID: 95842 www.classic-trader.com/ad/95842 Austin FX 3 London Taxi (1955) EUR 34.149 Aangeboden door: GBP 29.950 Beschrijving Comments A Hire Car version, the FL1 was also made, which had four full doors, a bench front seat, column gear-change and an umbrella-type handbrake handle. The two occasional seats faced forward. A 'driveaway' chassis-cab was also supplied to outside coachbuilders. Several shooting brake ('woodie') bodies were made, as well as newspaper vans for the three London evening papers, the Star, News and Standard. Built in 1955, this FLI was professionally restored and converted to a Shooting Car, by specialist trimmer Northumbrian Leather of Newcastle on Tyne, based on the FL1 the shooting car has received a full restoration, and a period of recent recommissioning in our workshops. Interior Fully restored in the style of an Estate / Shooting Car, the interior being trimmed in Ostrich skin and buffalo hide, with contrasting tartan interior, History The Austin FX3 is a taxicab that was sold in the United Kingdom by Austin from 1948 to 1958. It was designed to comply with the Metropolitan Police Conditions of Fitness for London taxicabs, but was used in other towns and cities in the UK. It was commissioned from Austin by taxi dealers Mann & Overton and built by Carbodies of Coventry on a chassis supplied by Austin. The first prototype, the FX had a 1.8-litre sidevalve engine that proved inadequate for the job. The second prototype, the FX2 had a 1.8-litre petrol engine, but this was replaced by the third version, the FX3, which had a 2.2-litre ohv petrol engine.

  • Club Lotus Elan Section
    CLUB LOTUS ELAN SECTION The Elan Plus 2 Estate Conversions In the 2017 spring edition of Club Lotus News we looked at the well-known and much admired Shapecraft fastback Elans. We also looked at the estate conversion of the Elan by Hexagon in the spring 2015 edition and the Elan Fastbacks in the spring of 2018. Although Lotus never built a production estate version of the Plus 2, a number of cars were converted by various individuals or firms. We thought we should now take a look at those we know of. The Hickman Estate This is thought to be the closest rendering of the Hickman estate, a 3/8ths scale model Having written that Lotus never built a production estate, we do know that Ron Hickman, the genius behind both the Elan and +2, turned his attention to the possibility of an estate version. He even went as far as drawing some sketches and making a model of the styling he had in mind at the time. In fact, his ideas took the utility of the +2 further. He envisaged a fixed roof and C pillars allied to a removable boot lid, rear scuttle and rear screen. This allowed for both an estate and a sports pick-up version, as well as the coupe. Although Hickman first penned his ideas in 1961, it was not until late 1965 that he persuaded Colin Chapman that project M28 should be seriously considered. However, the idea was killed off by the Lotus board in January 1966, due to problems with achieving a decent front and rear weight distribution under all loads and the late running development of the 907 engine, which was envisaged as a suitable power plant for the concept.

I came upon the marque in my general course of business in the motor trade and have become as enthusiastic as my customers about Aston Martin and their products. My son Matthew and I with my first Aston Martin There is an aura about Aston Martin, a heritage far beyond simple statistics. Winning at Le Mans, victory in the World Sportscar Championship, the Zagatos and Royal patronage would be enough for any car manufacturer. Aston Martin goes beyond that – every car has its character and every owner, real pride in his or her car. Any market place has pitfalls for the unwary and opportunities for the unscrupulous. What I have tried to produce is an overview of Aston Martin cars that can act as an introduction to the marque. It is my view, coloured by my experiences and the use of my library of Aston Martin books as a reference.

  • 2013 Mercedes-Benz CLS Shooting Brake REVIEW
    2013 Mercedes-Benz CLS Shooting Brake REVIEW Statement of the obvious warning: this is a practical car. It has a boot of many litres, can be had with a tow-bar, and has rear seats that do the split/fold thing and something called underfloor storage. But then so it should - it's an estate car. Only it isn't, it's a shooting brake, and therefore it's different. Can't tell how exactly, because it has the right number of doors and the overall layout is uncannily similar to an E-Class's. And besides, if we're being pedantic, then strictly speaking isn't a shooting brake a two-door coupe with an estate back? Certainly the cars that Mercedes reference - Scimitar GTE, Volvo P1800, and Aston DB5 Shooting Brake - conform to that description. But it's no good trying to split hairs in the brave new world of automotive niche-busting. You can see that Sindelfingen is trying to trendify the estate, so let's leave it at that - first pausing, of course, to recognise the headache the arrival of this car must be causing for Audi and BMW. With the A7 and 6- Series Gran Coupe, they've only recently caught up with the CLS ball that Merc started rolling back in 2004, and now they're on the back foot again. It does change things, the CLS Shooting Brake. And not just because parents with three offspring won't be disappointed when they peer into the rear compartment. It's visually dramatic, a versatile car that actively tries to disguise the space inside, although that's hardly surprising, given that Mercedes freely admits that in the give-and-take tussle between designers and engineers, the designers were allowed to win.
