What’s the prettiest?

[tom abernethy]

Roger, I have only ever seen one photo of the car you mention, if I recall it still retained much of the Brookland's body but had a revised scuttle, do you have any picture's of the car you would be willing to share here?

Several in fact. The first two are of the car as he bought it in 1936, then two subsequent evolutions. Take no notice of the registration plates, in those far-off days of impecuniousness they were more like flags of convenience. If you had 2 or more green Austins, why bother to tax all simultaneously?You couldn't drive them all at once.
My father left notebooks and photos. I have thought of putting together an illustrated article, Jack French and his Austins, maybe, as an exhibit in his reconstructed garage. These photos might be part. What do you all think?

So good to see photos which have not been seen before Roger -excellent! Somewhere I have an outline of a Brooklands manifold which Jack drew around the original item. From memory we left him at about two in the morning to drive back to Scotland. An illustrated article  would be good.
