Hi, Dan
Now my guess is it's a razor-edge styled saloon from the 1946-54 era called
first the "Town and Country" with an 1800 engine, then the Renown 2000 with the
Vanguard 2 liter engine. Looks like a baby Rolls-Royce, right? Not surprising,
as they were built by Mulliners of Birmingham, who I believe also did a lot of
Rolls bodies.
