1951 Daimler Empress 2.5 Litre reg LAD 457

HI,

Does anyone have any recollection of the above vehicle? Currently in a barn in Scotland with the roof removed. Looks to have been done professionally. Wondered if a club member had started a project to create a special then time took its toll....

What remains appears to be in good condition although I suspect the car is now only fit for spares as the cost of completing a conversion would be expensive unless you happen to be skilled in carpentry/metal bashing.

Where about in Scotland is the barn? Not many Empresses known in the West.

What sort of person would cut the roof off an Empress. Vandalism even though it may look professional.
