The Gallery is growing, and I thought it might be amusing to bring you a picture each month for wider appreciation.
I'll start with this one submitted by Peter Naulls, since nothing is known about it - maybe someone can add some information? It's obviously a professionally constructed body, so I've put it in the Coachbuilt section, but by whom? The key features I have identified are the long bonnet, which unusually reaches right back to the windscreen and leading edge of the door, the stepped line of the top of the door, and most unusually it's a four-seater. The hood looks like it's in the process of being fitted, so perhaps we are looking at the coachbuilder's premises?
Comments welcome!
Edit: Although the bodywork looks to be new in this photo, the front axle and suspension look a bit weathered, and the front tyres are past their best, so although the car probably dates from 1927-28, perhaps this is a mid-thirties re-body?
