The front end was a black radiator cowl with embossed Austin winged wheel and the forward aspect wasn't too bad. The square box bulge on the LHS was repeated symmetrically on the RHS and the rear floor sloped slightly downwards rather than upwards which must have been interesting to drive over the French "ralentisseurs" ( sleeping policemen). The run from the paddock to the start had a couple of dips on which I think he managed to scrape the tail.
If the big rivets are mirror screws I suppose the bodywork could be described as "QD" and so, at a stretch, it could be a quick temporary job for the event.
