Information
has gloss	eng: Crayford Engineering (more commonly known simply as Crayford) was an automobile coachbuilder based in Westerham, Kent, England and formed in 1962 by David McMullan and Jeffrey Smith. In the 1970s, a subdivision within the company, called Crayford Auto Developments, Ltd., was established for automobiles. The company specialized in converting European coupés and saloons into convertibles and estates. Notable products included the convertible Mini, BMC 1100/1300 convertible, the rare Triumph TR7 Tracer Estate, and a Leyland Princess hatchback conversion, a commonly-accepted principle for a car that appeared to be, but was not, a hatchback to begin with. Other lesser-known conversions from Crayford included the Tempest, a convertible Volkswagen Scirocco, a Ford Cortina MkV Convertible, and a Mercedes S-Class Estate.

Meaning
German
has gloss	deu: Die englische Firma Crayford Engineering wurde 1962 von David McMullan und Jeffrey Smith gegründet. Das erste Projekt der kleinen Werkstatt in Westerham/Kent in Großbritannien war ein Mini-Cabrio-Umbau für 100 Pfund. Rund 800 Mini wurden "eröffnet". Charakteristisch für die Crayford-Umbauten ist die Tatsache, dass im allgemeinen keine Lackierarbeiten erforderlich waren. So blieben die Kosten niedrig. Später stieg der Preis zwar auf 150 Pfund, dafür waren nun aber die Seitenscheiben voll versenkbar.
