Conquest windscreen sticker

Post by Phillmore »

On the inside of my Conquest windscreen (driver's side) is a paper sticker explaining that the vehicle is fitted with a Fluid Flywheel and pre-selector gearbox and contains instructions as to their operation. Some of the sticker has worn away over time. Would this have been an original fitment from new from the Daimler works or a dealership? Does anyone else still have this sticker attached to their Daimler I wonder?

I've taken photos but when I try to upload is says file size too large (3.6mb). Not sure how to reduce it?

Talking of stickers - when I worked in the trade back in the 1960's we once had an Austin A35 in for repair. Having removed the carpets, there was a sticker on the prop-shaft tunnel which read "Unfit for Export". Make of that what you wil .......................
