Andrew Moran purchased
this car in 1967.
"Herbert A Jackson purchased
two 3 liters and had Martin &
King fit both with open 4 door bodies.
His wife drove one which was re-bodied
also by Martin & King as a Coupe
in 1931. This was sold as a ladies
car to Roy Johnson in 1937 for his
wife — she could not drive it
and it was sold 3 weeks later to my
father Ralph H Moran who later found
an overly thick oil in the gearbox.
I took over the car in 1967 after
a restoration — it is now undergoing
a more serious restoration."
