Interesting bracing on the windscreen - must have been very rigid, for its time.

Not! because that's a very modern machine - a Royale Windsor, a Brit-built kit based on a Ford Granada

Royale? Yes. But it goes by another name than the Windsor. You'll probably get this point anyway, so I'll make it easy for you: It has something to do with the shape of the body.

You're right, the Windsor is the four-door; this is the Royale Drophead

1982 Royale Drophead - how very different from the 1649 Royal Drophead (Charles I) ;D
Opinionated but sometimes wrong
