Which Wolsley?

Post by oddbod »

Just spotted a Wolsley in a scrappers, its well gone, the numbers on the rear are 15/.... nothing left. Could this be the model with the better drums for a Moggie??

Probably a 15/50 or whatever they were, looks like a smaller 6/90. Unless it was a later Farina 15/60 with tail fins. The one you want is a Wolseley 1500 which is a smaller car - not sure if the brakes from the one you saw will fit.

Yes - Wolseley (not Wolsley) 1500 - or perhaps the Riley 1.5 are the brakes you need.

Yep, it had tail fins, looked kind of like a small Austin Cambridge.

Probably was a Wolseley 15/60 then.
