The Sports car is an 'Austin Standard Sports' built on an imported chassis by James Flood and Company, St Kilda Road Melbourne during 1929-1930 and also sold and badged by Latrobe Motors as a 'Latrobe'.
All the Standard Sports and Latrobes I have seen here had the chassis (front axle and all) painted red.
The front guards were mounted on the front hub back plates, turning with the wheel.
The later model had the Spare Wheel mounted on the side as in the 'Myer' picture.
