Interesting haul, I quite like the look of the little Railton (pic #3, 2nd link)

Some really oddball cars there,which appeal to me.
The Fiat 1200 coupes,the Skoda Octavia,NSU Sport Prinz.The Wolseley 1500 looks a good bet,it appears in much better shape than most.

Yes, Freddie loved Eastern European cars and lots of other odd balls besides.

I've seen the Woosey close up and it wouldn't be a bundle of fun to restore.

Peter,

Did you attend the sale? I was wondering what the Jags went for.

No I was still in Spain 'til yesterday evening but Alan Logan went. The Jags were £300, £600 and £5000. I guess the 5k one is easy to recognise. As to the other two, I think you can see where Freddie decided (cynically) to turn one into a drophead. It's the one with front doors that no longer fit.

Peter
