1022 Coxhead c1950 1.jpeg (Size: 93.45 KB / Downloads: 1,818) I thought I might try an attempt to post a very interesting photo forwarded to me by Ashley Tracey from an album belonging to Jack Cocks of Chewton in country Victoria. The photo caption reads.
'My second Austin 7, 1946 before I got my licence'.
Tony Press has confirmed that is a 1929 Ace built by James Flood, and it also shows the original tool box below the radiator complete with an opening lid to gain access to the crankhandle.
Jack Cocks owned several vintage cars over the years, including two 3 litre Bentleys and was a regular competitor at the nearby Mt Tarrengower Hillclimb.
Note same background for both photos, the Bentley photo dates from 1951.
