What
is the Standard Motor Club
This
Dark Green area of the Site tells you all about
the Standard Motor Club.
Our
Club caters for enthusiasts and owners of products
of the Standard Motor Company of Canley, Coventry,
England, which were built from 1903 to 1963. As a
multinational company, cars were produced and sold
in most of the world's markets. A popular
misconception is that Triumph took over Standard,
this is NOT TRUE. The Standard Motor Company
bought the defunct Triumph car company in late
1945 and all postwar Triumph cars were designed
and made by the Standard Motor Company in Standard
factories. Whilst many are more familiar with
Triumph cars, the parent company's products and
the Standard marque generally has largely been
ignored, except by their owners and this club. One
of the club's aims is to change that, highlight
the cars' qualities and give them the recognition
they deserve.
If
you have a car with a Standard badge on it or
built on a Standard chassis we welcome you into
membership. The
Club also caters for any vehicle made of
Standard Parts.
