Description

A detailed and authoritative history of the post-war Frazer Nash, a car of outstanding pedigree and with an exceptionally successful competition record. This beautifully designed and illustrated book traces the evolution of the Bristol-powered Frazer Nash from the first prototype based on a BMW 328 that had competed in the 1940 Mille Miglia road race to the last cars that appeared at the London Motor Show in 1957-58.

Early chapters recount the founding of the company, the involvement of the German BMW company with AFN, the makers of Frazer Nash cars, and the evolution of the BMW-derived Bristol engine that powered them.

The main themes of the book are detailed accounts of the evolution of these cars, model changes and developments, a deeply informative racing history and, most important of all, a fascinating and painstakingly researched Register.

This gives the histories of each individual post-war Frazer Nash, including the various engines fitted (and a few Frazer Nash cars have had engines other than Bristol), changes in ownership and details of alterations and modifications made to individual cars over the years.
