474 FAB

Post by Phillmore »

In the course of work today I was talking to a customer about classic cars (as one does) and when the subject got onto Daimlers he went off to get some photos. It transpired he'd owned four Darts and 474 FAB (if I remember correctly) was his last which he sold in the eighties. It was white in the photos. Checking on the GOV websites there doesn't seem to be any record of it. Does it still exist in Daimlerland I wonder?

At a show in July a guy spoke to me about the Dart he owned in the 60's 474 FAB and he later sent photos of it. Checking with Laurence he had some notes about and the guys name but no chassis detail etc. However a few weeks later Laurence reported that it had surfaced with a different registration no. Laurence was asked to pass on the previous owners details and notes about his modifications etc. to the new owner. I haven't heard if there has been contact. 474 FAB had certainly left a lasting impression on the early owner.
