Sunbar ◊ 2006-02-23 12:53	1962 Austin A60 Cambridge - (Rear lights differ I think to Morris and Wolesley versions - sloped back and dual tone paint work stadardised from 1962 in place of a contrasting flash down the side.)

Not too sure about the colour, either. Ahead of it is a Morris Oxford VI, I presume, with appropriate paintwork -- Last edit: 2006-03-14 14:55:24

The colours look like period bmc shades, rose taupe over smoke? -- Last edit: 2011-10-17 21:26:14
