What car is this from?

[HectorBart]

Hi, new to the forum so not exactly sure if this was the correct place to post.

Anyway, the meaning of the post. I recently bought this car grille from an antique shop as I am planning on hanging it on my wall, the shop suggested that it might be from a Morris but I have not been able to find any model that has the same. I have tried quite a few other makes as well and am unable to find a match. Does anyone have any ideas as to what vehicle it is from?

Many thanks for any suggestions!

Moved to classic cars in the hope it gets the OP an answer.

I see where you're going with that, and it's close, but it's not.




I can't help think Riley, because of that widow's peak dip in the centre - but I can't find anything where the shape fits.

Why is the top covered?

I didn't think it was covered, looked more like "not there" to me, though now I look I can see how it could look either. Solution shows the top bit is on the bonnet, though.

I apologise for not responding to your help sooner, I haven't been getting the notification emails through (probably my fault). I really appreciate the help in finding the answer and now I can put it on my wall without having to wonder where it came from!

...and what you're looking out for to complete it - that bonnet-edge trim.

Yeah, that's true! No idea if I could get one - I will have to look around a bit. Thanks for your help!
