| This
is Simon Bishop's 1935 Le Mans 9 hp. Simon
bought it from an old friend who happened to mention at a family wedding that
she was thinking of selling the car after many years of using it for rallies,
general transport and shopping, only stopping when her two sons grew too big for
the car. She asked Simon if he knew anyone who might be interested. Simon had
no intention of buying another car, but, he says "you know how it is!" Twelve
years standing in a lock-up had taken its toll, but after renewing the brakes,
water manifold, several tyres, the clutch and all sorts of other little jobs,
the car is back on the road. |
