Picture of Vanguard Phase 1 from Standard

Standard Vanguard Phase 1.

More information on this Standard:

A seemingly complete Phase 1 (beetleback) Standard Vanguard was seen in this Staffordshire scrapyard back in '92. Staring upwards is a well stripped Rover P4 and alongside a Mk2 Cortina. This little yard near Talke had some interesting motors in it back then. Not sure whether its still operating though.

This section of oldclassiccar is full of photographs showing a mix of unrestored, derelict, abandoned, and scrapped old cars. Some cars are with enthusiasts awaiting restoration, others are dumped or seen in breakers yards. I don't have any more information on the classic Standard above, so all news regarding what happened to it, or the rescue of this particular Vanguard Phase 1 would be much appreciated.

All the photos, including this picture of an old Standard Vanguard Phase 1, are shown as a reminder of how old cars go to look once past their first flush of youth. Some of the scrapyards in this archive no longer exist, others perhaps survive but don't allow you to walk around them. And those that you can still get in probably don't have many classics in them any more. For more photos like this one of the Vanguard Phase 1, and similar old Standards, please visit the main scrapyard & scrap cars image page.
