Walk around a 1927 Frazer Nash Boulogne SS

IT'S ALWAYS GOOD TO BE UNDERESTIMATED
Do not underestimate this car. It may look small but it will fight back! With its fixed back axle and driven by chains makes this car a very interesting machine. The tags ‘remove before flight’, are suiting this car perfectly.
A real chain-drive Frazer Nash TT Works car, one of only three fitted with the Saloon body is a little jewel you have to have!
Get to know the car!
The first owner : Robert Lawrence 'Bobby' Bowes of Hendon (UK)
Supplied by AFN Ltd, rebuilt as a Saloon in 1928.
The original engine was an Anzani, engine no. HE 4859
1928-1933
The car went to Mr. Cummings of C&K Motors of Putney, London. It was then sold to John Ogle, who became a well-known and respected aero-space scientist after WW2.
1933-1970
During WW2 the car was in a shed which was bombed during an air raid. The car was not damaged when the roof fell but in an ensuing fire, most of the saloon body was destroyed. For this reason a new body was required: Bill made one from the factory-drawings of the Super Sports body. It is worth remembering that Bill was perhaps the most famous Captain of the Frazer Nash Car Club and a legend driving this very lightweight car on the circuits.
1980-2000
After which his son Steve Stanton started racing the Frazer Nash, again with great success.
2000 and onwards
Mr. di Lauro bought the car in 2000. The engine was then completely rebuilt by Steve at Stanton Motorsports and everything else overhauled without replacing any of the original parts. For example: the radiator surround is of the very early cast-aluminium type, as are the bevel box and steering box castings.
The new owner drove the car in hill climbs and other events in Europe. The engine was again refreshed by Steve Stanton (in 2012). The car that is for sale has been maintained regardless of cost and it is in top condition, with a marvellous patina. Portrayed in the Frazer Nash Car Club Calendar for 2017, '1118' comes with a FIVA passport, VSCC Buff Form, and a current V5C Registration Certificate.
