RE: Austin Cambrian
Hey Gang,
This was a very early 1200cc, B-series powered Cambridge shipped to the US
at the same time that Plymouth Division of Chrysler had the Cambridge name
trademarked in the US. They dropped that name in about 1954/5 when
Plymouth brought out the "hotel series" of names like Savoy and Plaza and
moved the Belvedere name, that was only used on their pillarless hardtop
models, to all of the top end versions. I believe that the Cambrian badges
were dealer installed until the trademark agreement was settled.
How does one pronounce Daimler/Chrysler?
Dime-ler, the Chrysler is silent!
