I thought that the crayfords had small rear side windows I'm no expert tho so I stand to be corrected

i never understand when people say IT WAS A NCIE CAR 10YEARS AGO BUT ITS BEEN STODD FOR 8!

 

why was it stood if it was so good?

[Guest v6dale]

they guy that owned it 10 years ago sold it to a mate of his, he then got done for armed robbery i think so the car was left on his drive all that time
