Spares for sale
I have inherited parts of a
Flying Standard 10 Coupe from my father. It was a
restoration project going back 40-50 years that he never really
started. There is the chassis with engine, gearbox, wheels,
steering wheel etc but no body. I also have the dashboard
and some other small parts (I am no expert!) in addition to a bit
of paperwork. I am very happy for an enthusiast to have all these
items if they may help with a project probably as spares. The
current location of the car is South Manchester area near New
Mills and I am located in Bedfordshire. Matthew

My name is Peter Matchan. I've
been bringing my Flying 8 saloon up to tip-top order, with
much help I might say from Brian Parkes who has assisted in many

finished on its side. Needless to say the body damage was
extensive. I am now looking for a body shell. PMatchan@aol.com
