1951-1959
 

This car was owned by Mr. Willmott (father of Stephen Willmott) from 1951 to 1959.

"My father bought privately in Stenying, Sussex. The 3-litre had a wide two-seater body (inside hand brake) with a "dickey seat" unfortunately the rain used to run off the body and eventually rotted the rear part of the body. It was converted to a 4-seater circa 1954 used as daily transport plus a couple of Eastbourne rallies. Sold to R. Taylor in 1959 who replaced camshaft, mudguards and windscreen. Sold to car dealer Jack Bond circa 1961".
