I took this photograph before the start of the Lancashire Automobile Club's Manchester to Blackpool Veteran and Vintage Car Run in June 1975.

I no longer have the programme of the event, but it's a 1914 Crossley Staff Car and the 1990 programme of the run gave this information about it:
'1914 Crossley
Reg: NA 557 4 cylinder 20 hp
(G.D.Moores, Denton, Manchester)
This Royal Flying Corps staff car is one of only
two known to exist in Britain. Originally built in
Manchester, it spent much of its life in India,
and returned to the UK in 1969. It has twin-tyred
rear wheels and has been a class winner many
times on this Run.'
