SLO4 Two-seater Feature

Don Brunt owns this two-seater
Standard SLO4 from 1922. Some of the history of this car is known.
It was restored in the 1960's by Standard-Triumph apprentices and
spent the next period of its life in the British Motoring Heritage
Trusts collection, eventually being on display in the Gaydon
Museum. It was sold in auction a couple of years back and bought
by a Classic car dealer in the West Midlands. From there
possession passed to Don Brunt
Don has embarked on a nut and
bolt restoration of the car, and the pictures shown steps in that
process. In rebuilding the car, he found that another rear axle
worm wheel was needed, but this has now been supplied following
help from Paul Newsome and the Club.
I hope that Don will be able to
supply photos of the finished article, I am sure that it will look
magnificent.
Don has supplied far too many
photographs for me to publish here, so these are just a selection.
If you want to see how a particular part fits on your SLO4, give
me a call, there is probably a photo of it! As examples, by clicking on any of the
thumbnails below, you can see an enlarged version of that
