![]() [quote=GREG;2459]Hal,
A 405 in Sweden is also having / had a BMW engine replacement and much more. Very interesting project and will probably be a superb car if the rest of his work is anything to go by. Dan S-born Refining Hal, Dansborn said that he could complete the car in either convertible or as you like for around 35 k. Even for a Frankenstein special it seems about half price and a very usable car at the end! I think if you just like the Bristol for it's looks it is very tempting. Greg |

the new cost was almost 3.500 GBP in 1952..." The is the same reported price as most Frazer Nash models in 1952! A few weeks ago I looked up various inflation tables and this was one: http://www.measuringworth.com/ukcompare/ Also there are similar tables to show the pound-dollar values over time. It was more interesting than doing my taxes! Bob |
