“Monty”
Our Renown has never been restored. It has simply been maintained in running condition since new. It was first purchased and registered in Merseyside, England by the local vicar. Original owner's handbook, shop manual, parts manual, registration log book and tools have remained with the car.

Recent repairs included a de-coking w/ new head gasket and new nave plates.

Sorry... just now seeing these comments - didn't know folks could comment on my photos! Yes, Barry, I brought it over about 32 years ago. And Bobby, I have a few more photos - anything in particular you're looking to see?

Nave plate is wheel cover or hub cap.

Yes, a nave plate is the period-correct term for what we now call a hubcap.I dont know if the parish paid for it - the logbook only lists his name. Thank you for the kind comments on the car. It will be for sale shortly, actually, after almost 40 years of ownership.
