It is.

I think a company in N.Z. was making a f/glass replica a few years ago.

Another Brit.

It's fairly ugly, my first thought was that I don't want to know what it is. But then I thought it would be best to know so I don't ever buy one by accident.

Is it Eastern European?

It is the product of a fully capitalistic economy. One of the only cars ever made with front swing axles.

Well, that would be a Lightburn Zeta from Oz.

I'm thinking that this is a BSA three wheeler from the 1930's?

Tim will know!

[tchanson]

Beats me.

Omega?

Front hubs don't look like Morgan.

[Aerkuld]

YES!

A BSA-9 Patrol Car 1930-1936.

Interestingly, the first two letters of UK registrations are allocated according to county, the "VV" on the plate of this car designates Northamptonshire - that's my home county!
This car is a Police car from the county where I grew up!
In fact I found that exact picture on www.northants.police.uk


So here's a hard one...



...and an easy one!

1: MG---Q type? supercharged anyway but the twin spares throw me a bit,looking for a boat tail.
2: Wolsely imp/Rily Elf

[Aerkuld]

Bob,
It's a good news / bad news type of thing;

The good news is you're part right about the second one.
There was a Hillman Imp, but it isn't one of those.
So is it a Wolseley (what) or a Riley Elf?

You can tell the difference.

I'm guessing some of these made it over to the USA?

[Bob Goding]

Was it Hornet?

[dafischer]

Okay, time for some difficult old stuff...

[Bob Goding]

Alvis 12/70 special?

[dafischer]

Nope..try again.

[Aerkuld]

Invicta S-Type

[Dottore]

Invicta. No question.

[Aerkuld]

[dafischer]

Two correct answers. 1931 Invicta Low Chassis S-Type.

Yes Bob, it was Wolesley Hornet and Riley Elf. The most noticable difference was in the radiator grills.

Anyone got any ideas about the white car yet?
