Early shape Vauxhall Wyvern/Velox Cresta with a probably Farnham estate conversion - super-rare now.

Those Vauxhalls are one of the 50's biggest sellers - almost 500,000 made in UK, Belgium and Australia and New Zealand by GM.

Location looks like London possibly.

Thanks for the info. Yes I think it to be an Abbot conversation  - which was called by GM a 'Friary' - because Ford used the Abbot name on their estates - even though both were built by...Abbot. 'Farnham' was one of the estate model type names used applied to the Fords. All a bit confusing - but more info here clearing it all up.

The way that shell has come apart - you can see the way the whole thing was constructed.
