Some history, pictures and links



The Standard Motor Company was based in Coventry, Warwickshire, England and made cars from the turn of the 20th century until the mid 60's. It took over The Triumph Car company and continued to manufacture sports cars and saloons until the 1970's, and all Triumphs post war were designed and made by the Standard Motor Company. ( thanks go to the Webmaster of the Standard Motor Club for the correction )


To assist me in my search for spares and knowledge I have joined the Standard Motor Club , and I urge anyone contemplating restoring a classic car of whatever manufacture to search out and join the relevant club.

I purchased my project via Ebay from a seller in Bath, England and have had it transported to me ( 310 miles away ) by Beamish Transport Ltd.

This is what I have bought
