A cheap 10 26 challenge

For now, I lumped all the pre-war cars together, I would LOVE for there to be enough demand to split it into groups (hint...hint, post here about your pre-war Singer)

For this one you would need a faith healer rather than a mechanic, a useful parts stock if you have the space but would not be cheap if it had to transported to UK/US. Realistically you would need another one and make one good one out of two but anything is possible with unlimited time and cash.

Oh-oh Colin...that sounded faintly like buying noises!!!!!
:lol:
This is certainly a Singer challenge. Reminds me of the Airfix kits I used to build as a kid.

And you even get a selection of engines and gearboxes!
Bonus!

It's another 10/26 rad by the looks of it - not a junior

Yes I saw that Bill and you are right it isn't a Junior. There is also a lovely 1934 Singer 11 on at the moment in great oily rag condition. The seller says it needs restoration but in my view it is lovely as it is,especially the interior.

This is a gorgeous car! Love the oily rag condition and it needs a sympathetic new owner who won't ruin it.

Wish I had the money and space for it!

I am reliably informed that the radiator and surround is from a 1925 10/26.
