Expert 5K+ Posts: 7207 Location: Victoria, BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada | There was more than one of the cars built. Whether it's the actual one she rode in is up for debate. I posted this thread about the car back in 2010. More of the history is recounted on the thread --- http://forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=30921&post... | ||

Expert Posts: 2524 Location: Houston | It all depends on condition, of course, but it's a pretty swanky ride for $55K. That is a convert, after all.. | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 7207 Location: Victoria, BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada | ASSUME that the car needs a complete restoration, and he wants $55,000.00 to start off. And he has not posted any other photos of current condition. This car was one of six built and may NOT be the actual one that Princess Margaret actually rode in. | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | There's a seat for every a**hole. Why is it anyone gives a damm that some princess parked her's in this one ? That fabric pattern is awful and should only be viewed with loud and wretched bagpipe noise before putting the muzzle of one's pistol in their mouth and pulling the trigger. | ||

Expert Posts: 2524 Location: Houston | You'd think they would picked her up in a Windsor. I guess they didn't want her to find out they named the lowest priced model after her peoples. or country. Or whatever a Windsor is. | ||
