Hi
If the certificate says tourer it has clearly been re-bodied rather than built on an export chassis.
To my mind the body is of a style reminiscent of an American Bantam of the forties. Perhaps that is when the car was re-built?
The heritage certificate for my special is, similarly, for an export tourer with no indication of where it was exported. The only clue I have is that the half shafts were stamped ‘Dufor’ which I believe was an aftermarket manufacturer in Australia.
Good luck with tracing the origin but I doubt the internet will be much use if the car has been lost since the sixties.
Cheers
Howard
