GarageScout Take

The period sedan configuration, manual gearbox, and Borg-Warner overdrive give this Standard Eight a distinctly long-legged touring setup. At 72,000 miles, it sits above the middle for the generation, against a 25,000-mile median.

Strengths

  • Borg-Warner overdrive adds a long-legged gear to the three-speed manual.
  • Electric fuel pump fitted.
  • Exhaust manifold gasket replaced before the sale.

Watch For

  • Body was refinished in the 1980s; the selling dealer believes the colour was Ash Green.
  • Mounted with older BFGoodrich Silvertown whitewall bias-ply tires.
  • The South Dakota title is a duplicate and carries an “Exempt” odometer brand.
