| David Groom's Collection Lifelong Standard enthusiast David Groom
hails from Melton Mowbray in Leicestershire. His current collection not only comprises the
two commercials, a 10 van and the Atlas Caravanette shown here, but also a fine collection
of other Standards of all ages, most of which are shown below.
Fortunately, David's son, Harry,
has caught the same bug and looks forward to the day when he can pilot some of the
Groom fleet to Standard events.
If David or Harry would like to send
me any information about this splendid collection of cars or photos of the remainder, I
will gladly include them here.
You can see larger versions of all
these photographs just by clicking on them.
