Breaking Daimler Majestic Major DVB 400
Club members, I have just collected chassis number 137192 reg DVB 400, a 1962 Majestic Major that has seen better days. I know that the car has been in long time dry storage but time hasn’t done it any favours. The drivers door fell off in my hands and there isn’t a straight panel on the car. It loo...
