Hi trying to find out about a car that was a large part of my childhood - my dad was a Riley nut - he rebuilt is Adelphi with a soft top - most of the work completed by his own hand - it certainly wouldn't be to showroom standard or concourse - the car that was on plate CKV410 has almost certainly been reassigned as i have found images of the car with this plate on and its not the car my Dad worked on and loved... below is the currant vehicle on this number and then the Car with my Mum and Dad as it was when it was sold - to a man named Brian - after this it seems to have vanished - this is just a curiosity quest - i'd love to know what became of it.

It would appear to have been re-bodied yet again as a 6 light kestrel as it still shows an Adelphi chassis number. Calum

Calum Calum - thanks for this - are you suggesting it was stripped to the chassis and then changed to Kestrel body ? if this is the case i am unlikely to see it as it was ever again :-( can you shed any additional light ?

Hi, In another Riley club membership list it is listed as a 1938 Kestrel (ex special/Adelphi) listing chassis number 28A 7394. North East of London. Have you checked DVLA to see if it is still on the road?

Calum - only checked the dvla with this information below, many thanks for your assistance - which site is it listed on - i did contact one or two of the Riley clubs and it wasn't fruitful
