I am plucking up teh courage to start restoring my Grandad's old car - which I thought was a 1928 Standard Big 9.
Looking at your cars - I'm not so sure it is - It kinda looks like a Teignmouth. It's 4 door wooden framed and fabric covered.

What details (numbers etc and where to look) do I need to i.d. what the car is??

cheers David

Depends on the date of your car being correct...

1928 appears to be too early for a Big 9. There were 4 variants and this might help you confirm what you have.

Alternatively, this feature on a 1929 Teignmouth will help: www.standardmotorclub.org.uk/cars/edwardian%20and%20veteran/features/teignmouth.htm

Look forward to your response
