Re Castle Douglas Austin 7's - Interestingly back in the 1960's on the outskirts of nearby Dumfries was a large filling station possibly Esso that always had unrestored pre-war cars spread around the forecourt all of them for sale - I remember seeing a Ruby or two and bigger Austins for sale at various times. I was under the impression many had been found in the North / South of Ireland and ferried into Stranraer - whether that was true or not, I can't say.
