Aside, I somehow reckon that horizontally wide numberplate would've had a lot of things- and people- bumping into it and getting hurt rather badly!

Re: Nostalgic automotive pictures including our family's cars

Some interesting pictures with cars from the Book on Field Marshal K M Cariappa, written by his son Air Marshal K C Cariappa

Quote:
Field Marshal Kodandera "Kipper" Madappa Cariappa, OBE (28 January 1899 – 15 May 1993) was the first Indian commander-in-chief (C-in-C) of the Indian Army. He led Indian forces on the Western Front during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1947. He is one of only two Indian Army officers to hold the five-star rank of field marshal;

Shantipur, 1966.

The folded rear seat brings back memories.

The pilgrimage to Sabarimala in our 1965 (?) FIAT - KLT-4828 was made so much more comfortable, when Dad decided to fold the seats and make a bed that extended all the way to the boot

The R-R in KartikeyaL's post should be the Monghyr / Munger Silver Ghost, Chassis 69TW. It was an ex-Viceroy car.

Nostalgic automotive pictures including our family's cars-monghyr-rr-sg-69tw-white.jpg

It has been seen in both a light and dark colour with silver filigiree decorations.

And this is 69TW as it is supposedly today. I do not have any confirmation of identity though!
