Vauxhall.
A PA Velox of 1960.
Not where I'd choose to put 6.3 litres of mill, backed up with a 700R4.

Volvo 240 rear axle.
Disc brakes of undisclosed origin.

As with the Humber I posted recently, buyers are not falling over themselves. If it ain't a Cheby or a Ford, we shy away.
Or perhaps it's the £10,000 starting bid. The auction will end, bidless, he'll be none the wiser at to what it might fetch. Low start always better, if one really wants to sell.

And he's not helping himself with the pics: Parked in a field, in a car park, by a shed. Take it somewhere picturesque...

Ah well, it got done. Nice cruiser. Have to admire a chap who actually gets the job done and the car on the road.
