1936 Standard Flying Twelve - LSK 952

1936 Standard Flying Twelve - LSK 952
This highly modified Standard Flying 12, which was built in the UK by a guy called Dave Rothwell, is one of my all time favourite British hot rods.

The car actually started out as a 4-door saloon, but that was before Dave got his hands on it and transformed it into the stunning two-door coupé you see here.

Completely rebuilt to an impeccably high standard (no pun intended), the car now features extensive modifications throughout including:

Volvo V70 2.5 litre 200BHP Engine; Toyota Supra 5 Speed Manual Gearbox; Budnik Billet Wheels; and Full Leather Interior With Porsche 911 Seats.

I saw the car advertised for sale for a mere £25,000 just a few years ago. Now, normally, I wouldn't use the word mere in the same sentence as that kind of price tag, but believe me the car would have been worth every single penny.

The fact that it scored heavily in the Best In Britain competition and has even been featured on the Standard Motor Club's website says it all.

Both ... even though I'm not a big fan of the hot wheels look! :-)

Wouldn't do if we all liked the same thing, but at least you appreciate the work that's gone into achieving the look. :)
