Subject: Re: Lovely 12/24 LC
Hi Folks,
This 12/24 looks absolutely correct, down to the bullseye side lights and the properly equipped dashboard and CAV lighting panel. It looks like a 1924 model because it has 3 stud wheels, and front wheel brakes. (These were optional for 1923 but I think were probabaly standard for 1924.)
For 1924 the LC model had the integral steel framed body whereas by 1926 it had been replaced by a coachbuilt one. Interesting details are the steel dashboard and parcel shelf below.
Frustratingly the chassis number is just not quite readable. This would confirm if it is a car I know or one that has been unearthed and so beautifully restored.
Anyone know any more about this car?
