Sorry guys and thanks for the rotate.

Yes there are two front axles sat on the front chassis as this is neglected in a corner of a Jaguar workshop that restores them, so has many rusting examples around, although this one caught my eye.

The black 'bar' running along the front edge of the roof, is made of wood.

Has a few similar lines..

The way the body tucks in under the front end is very similar..And the suicide doors.

The front axle looks like trailing arms which must be rare.

The scuttle panel's completely the wrong shape, as are the tops of the doors.

It was round the back of a Jaguar restorer's workshop, so could be.
