Lanchester LD10 63324 

This remarkable restoration was moved from its long term home in Blackpool where it had been undergoing a meticulous 30 or more year restoration by Frank Butcher. It has now fallen to the DLOC members to complete this superb Barker bodied 1950 Lanchester car to the same standard and then used to demonstrate the quality of engineering of the club's marques.
