I have just bought a 1957 Vanguard Phase 3., to keep my Vignale company, and wonder if anyone out there, Peter, Ian or Brian can solve a puzzle I have.
According to the 'All British STANDARD' book, the last chasis for a phase 3 was V 322587 in October 1957?
My phase 3 was however manufactured on June 7th 1957 (according to B.M.H.T Certificate) and was chasis number V 326479 - so how is that possible?
On removing the hand painted finish, the original colour all over appears to be an Air Force Blue - were civilian cars produced in this colour?..... Any information anyone can give me would be much appreciated, either on this message board, or to my personal email at - dave@dcbevents.fsnet.co.uk. Thanks, David Bagot.
