wlaidlaw Posted August 18, 2018 Share #11201 Posted August 18, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) Dunk, If you have anything to post please do. I am lying flat on my back, with a severe flare up of my arthritic degenerative scoliosis, hoping to let it to settle down a bit, after the elephant sized steroid injection my doctor in France gave me this morning.

dkCambridgeshire Posted August 18, 2018 Share #11203 Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) Hope you are soon recovered Wilson. I can post something later today … but it's likely an easy classic to identify ... so will post a photo of the engine with smudged logo. William, the Lea Frances Hyper is an interesting 'Coventry' car. One reason why Coventry became a UK bicycle and thence motor cycle and car manufacturing city, is that its 19th C. watch and clock 'fusee chain making' expertise (££undercut and driven out of business by cheaper Swiss and American imports) lent itself to the manufacture of bicycle chains. dunk Edited August 18, 2018 by dkCambridgeshire Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hektor Posted August 18, 2018 Share #11206 Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) Wilson, I am sorry to hear about your scoliosis. Is there nothing better that can be done? One of my daughters had mild scoliosis whereby two fine stainless steel rods were attached to her upper spine. She is still able to touch her toes. Back problems are exhausting; I "popped" a disc as a competitive rower and have suffered from nerve pinching ever since. Trust you recover soon and well. PS The latest picture is of an early fifties Ferrari, but it would take an expert to identify the model.

willeica Posted August 19, 2018 Share #11217 Posted August 19, 2018 Rover 12? I hope that you are feeling better today, Wilson. This is not a Rover, but '12' appears in the full title of the car. This particular car has an interesting 'nickname' or 'pet name'. William Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
willeica Posted August 19, 2018 Share #11218 Posted August 19, 2018 (edited) To help matters along, the nickname of this car could be described as 'the unauthorised lady friend'.
