Has this been seen before? A wonderful set of "underneath" pictures. https://www.ebay.com/itm/132842799329?ul_noapp=true

Thanks Tony.
Many interesting features; the rod brakes, extended chassis but inadequte old style long shock absorber etc.
Typical of so many restorations; effort seemed to begin and end with the paintwork.

It certainly is a wonder of mixed specifications - probably 1932? - and obviously somebody with concerns about the brakes put some work into improving the system. The Mirror-image engine - always fascinating...
