Similar to another Hooper-bodied "Silver Flash" in some areas:

I haven't been able to find a web page describing this car as a "Silver Flash".  I thought only the Docker Daimler carried that name.  Not sure about the 1953 part either.

Here are more images of the puzzle car.  Daimler DK 400 All-weather Saloon by Hooper, Body No.10235, Engine No. 92716, formerly belonging to the Nawab of Bahawalpur.
