so last week i was talking to some lads at work and they know of a lanchester for sale for fairly cheep,i know its not a hot rod but dont really wanna take this to a restorers forum and i need to know some info.

right so from the pictures ive seen of it,its a two door looks to be around the mid 40's-50's era,ive searched for some info on it but it seems that nothing like this car excists,byt the looks of it it has the same overall shape as a ld10 with the same kind of grill,but the info ive found says only 4 door shapes where made,i then found out there is a model called a roadster deluxe that is similar just with 2 doors and a different grill.

could this car be a rare coachbuilt model?

I have this poster here. I also had four Lanchester hubcaps that i sold to a Mr Lanchester in the USA. He was making them into letterboxes for his family.

There was a Lanchester rod at the Brass Monkey run this year:
