Hi, I haven't been on here for ages, sorry to have missed you all.
I have just been reading an article on the RHD Crayford cars and really would appreciate a value for one. My car is a 1969 Crayford, in fact I understand it to be the first one ever. I've owned it for about 30 years and now am considering parting with it, but what's it worth? Attached thumbnail(s) |

aus car dashboard.
photos from when it was for sale a decade ago. same stitched seam around joint with instrument pod binnacle. it was the only way it could be done in those days? all the later aus 80s cars pretty much have one piece vinyl skinned dash tops. many are padded. the crayfords cars dashtops are solid. vinyl? more or less stretched and glued directly over a fibreglass moulding. your #1 car would be like that? the other white car in aus that has disappeared had the same dashtop. i believe crayfords used leather and not vinyl but not 100% sure on that. the 6 that i have seen and still see from time to time that was one of the distributor's cars had a similar hand stitched seam around the binnacle, but the dash top was padded under the covering just like a factory car - and included the ashtray. crayfords deleted the ash tray. its pretty easy to tell a crayfords car from the numerous aus conversions dating 20 years or so later in time. also i noticed the badging on the back of your car. i take it thats original with the deletion of vw badging and the addition of neat little crayfords badge (with homage to henry ford, crayfords had links to ford?). the cars that were here both had the the factory vw-porsche european badge on the back. no crayfords badge. very unique to have that crayfords badge. |
