A New Year, a New Decade even, so may I present a New Car from the New World? Here is a fine photograph, presumably an official publicity shot, of a 1939 Bantam Hollywood Roadster:

I believe this is the prototype Bantam Hollywood - the lady standing beside it was there to conceal the Coupe windscreen which was used as a temporary measure until production got underway.

I agree, a publicity shot; that was taken by a professional. Nice pic!

They have to have chosen the shortest models ever to make the car look big. Based on the wheelbase they must be 4 ft something.
