What’s this?

[Brinyan]

No bonnet badge or much to identify it.

Moss Kit Car?

[Skyedriver]

Don't recall any Moss like that and while most were based on front engined cars I cannot think of many that would have incorporated a starting handle in their new layout. Might be wrong. My thoughts are A7 special or something French.....

[3.8 MOD]

It does have some agricultural A7 special about it but I'm not sure about the front suspension.
Looks like there are telescopic shocks and I'm not sure the axle looks right either.

It's not an Austin 7 front axle / suspension.

[A993LAD]

Judging by that nearside headlight I'd say some kind of WW2 anti-aircraft searchlight disguised as a contemporary car.

[Brinyan]

The body tapered away at the back, from what I could see, with very low doors.

Brum just down on hes luck ?

I've enlarged it - the resolution is poor but it gives a better idea.

I think I probably meant Spartan.

Nah, it's not that ugly.....

Dunno, but i like the trailer's number plate. Looks like it's moving, but with the door flapping open ?

The car on the transporter isn't this, but it's close in some areas, no opening doors though (although kit builders added changed lots of things in the 50s and 60s).

The front nose cone is grp and some didn't buy or fit this - it was available as a kit at £156 in 1958 using parts inc rad and fuel tanks from Ford 8 and 10hp (1938-1953), or new components... Anyway, closer than the offerings tendered so far (imo)

[nicanary]

Looks like a special probably built on a mundane chassis. A bit like a Dellpw. Definitely not a kitcar, looks too much like a genuine barnfind.

[underwhelmist]

Could it be a Midge? IIRC you bought plans and cut all the body panels out from marine ply or similar. I think they looked a bit like this, although I never saw one in tel life.

The car itself looks pretty large in comparison with the modern truck it is on. Bentley Blower sort of size?

Deuce Coupe Convertible?
