The car
An early flat-floor roadster with the outside-bonnet catches and the aluminium dash centre panel. Long-nose, short-deck proportions that have never been improved on, and a straight-six that pulls from almost nothing.
History
Exported to New York in 1961, in the same family from 1968 to 2021. Full body restoration completed in 2020 with photographic record.
