Re: ABBOTT LD10 BACK FOR SALE
I must say the old girl looks really great - and so it should at this price! I used this car for some years as everyday transport and really only had to stop doing so because of the cable breaks: when you have I.F.S., you really need hydraulics. The reg. number is MPJ 371.

I was in a shower too - outside. But it was warm rain and so I knew it was Summer - John

Re: Docker's Daimlers
And in case you were wondering what happened to the Conquest/Century DJ258/9, that model was going to be the Century with a Hobbs Box. I know because I met the Hobbs, father and son, but I don't remember them saying one was ever completed. JohnR

Re: Docker's Daimlers
Richard's books arrived today - great service. It's a good introduction to "our" cars of the period. I still find the Empress line the height of elegance, particularly in 2-door 3L guise, but then I may be a touch biased. JohnR

Re: Retaining Original Registration No
If the reg. number is not already known to the DVLA computer, then even if it can be reissued, it will be only for the original car on a non-transferrable basis. John

Re: Daimler 15 Parts Catalogue.
Yes I have in the past "reprinted" just about every parts book on demand with a second copy as standby. Following a stroke in late 2015, it all became just too much and I have handed all the Clubs originals over to a member who plans to digitise the lot - rather him than me! John Ridley
