Please identify this car and earn a point.

I do not think it should be too difficult.

This looks like one of the Docker Daimlers from the early 1950's. Is this the "Silver Flash"?

I think that the car was built on a Daimler 3-litre Regency chassis, coachbuilt and named "Silver Flash" for Sir Bernard and Lady (Norah) Docker.

It's important to mention that this was coachbuilt by Hooper, which should be included in the Solved title. ;)

(1) What year was this built?

(2) Can you post an unmodified pic?

Pictures of this car are hard to find. This is all I've come up with so far.
