"Engine rebuilt in 2010 by Simon Adams and Jock Mackinnon with an NDR
block. A few mods have been done to the car now including an alternator, overdrive,
bigger carbs and most recently a single plate clutch. A good turn of speed and effortless cruising at motorway speeds make this a very
usable car able to complete the 500 mile trip from Goodwood to Edinburgh in a day. Regularly used and enjoyed.
Apparently the car was rebodied in the early 30s with a Vanden Plas body."
