Reg. no. BM 3128Chassis no. 10699Engine no. 10427VCC Dating Cert. no. 645Although there were many companies with the Standard name it is the British one that is best known. Founded in 1903 by Reginald Maudslay with a capital of £3000 it wasn't until 1904 when the first car was sold. Originally sold with 2, 3 and 4 cylinder engines, a 6 cylinder 18/20 was introduced and was entered in the 1905 TT race coming in 11th out of 18 entries. Between 1906 and 1911 the entire output of the Coventry factory was taken by the dealership owned by Charles Friswell, Chairman of Standard until 1911. It was he who arranged for Standard to be the sole make represented at the Delhi Durbar held to celebrate the Coronation of King George V as Emperor of India; some achievement with over 70 vehicles there. After Friswell left the company the next important step was the introduction of the 9.5 hp Model S an example of which is on offer here. Powered by a monobloc engine of 1087 cc and ignition by Eisemann magneto, it was available with a couple of different styles of body with the survivors wearing the 2-seat open type. The price when the Model S was introduced in March 1913 was £185 but by the September this had risen to £195. Edwardian Standards rarely come to the market in this condition or with the history this one has.According to records BM 3128 was supplied new by Quenby Brothers Ltd, High Street, Baldock and registered on 16th March 1914 to Arthur Puddlephatt, 185 Castle Street, Luton. It was then transferred to a Mary Isobel Bishell, South Lodge, Baldock on 16th October 1916. Some time in the early 1920s the car was repurchased by Quenby, there is a buff log book in the file with a stamp against their name dated 1925. Quenby kept the car for promotional purposes and attended many shows and events local to them before it was sold to a Mr Anthony Rogers in 1974. His name is also in the buff log book. The next owners who kept the car for, we believe, approximately 40 years was a Mr Geoffrey Downing who enjoyed many miles of trouble free motoring on VCC events and the car was sold in 2019 on his death; it is now offered from the estate of the current owner.The car is offered in good condition and is ready for the forthcoming rally season. Works known to have been carried out in the last couple of years include the rebuilding of the magneto, a radiator overhaul, the fitting of new valves and guides, and a partial re-trim of the interior. There are many invoices for this work on file. The original monobloc engine is fitted and rated at 9.5 hp (1087cc). When inspected the car had not been started for a few months but after priming the oil pump, flooding the carburettor and setting the controls the engine started easily and settled down to an even tickover. The car was then driven for a short distance and everything worked as it should. Wearing its original 2 seat bodywork painted in green, the car is also fitted with a factory extra of a dickey seat which cost £3 fitted at the time. It also has the added advantage of a discreet starter motor having been fitted. The Standard also comes with a full complement of brass lights and a period speedometer has been fitted.The V5C is present as well as an extensive history file that includes the aforementioned buff log book, an original Standard Light Car instruction and maintenance book, a reproduction 1913 Sales Catalogue, a raft of old MOT documents and most unusually a 1956 tax disc and then a run of tax discs from September 1974 to April 2014 and an early VCC dating Certificate. The car would of course be welcome at VCC Events as well as Standard Register Events.
