Default Glad I wasn't driving.

These series of photos were found in a cupboard I purchased a while ago.

On the reverse are these words.
"Standard Vanguard recovered after hitting a tree at 85MPH outside B.M.H Kamunting on 3rd. Aug 1956.
Taken at 2 Inf Wksps Taiping
August 7th 1956
Series of 9 Photos."

Further on another,
"Wrecked Standard Vanguard Staff Car
on 20thn Trailer
2 Inf WKSRs
August 7th 1956"

and on another
"Wrecker S/Vanguard S/Car on B.L.R Park. Note Steering wheel
through windscreen.
2 Ink WKSPs Taiping August 7th 1956"

and the last notation,
"underneath of Standard Vanguard Staff Car.
Note. Snapped Tailshaft and the differential hanging down.
2 Inf WKSPs Taiping August 7th 1956"

I am laying claim to the ownership (copywrite) to these photos, but you are welcome to reproduce them with acknowledgement to myself.
Regards Rick
