980cc, 10hp. This rare coupe was retained by the second owner from October 1937, when it was four months old, until 1999. It was subject to a full rebuild in 2001 and has covered 400 miles since. The work included a full engine rebuild, brakes re-lined, clutch replaced, radiator rebuilt and new handmade tyre tubes. The vendor purchased the car in 2020 for his elderly father, who had owned one in his younger days, but has been unable to use it. The car would benefit from some attention all round including the brakes require some attention but it starts, runs and drives satisfactorily. Vendor describes the interior and chrome as original. It comes with buff log books dating from 1937,  MoTs from 1999 to 2012 (last issued), some older bills, tax discs, V5s and manuals. Five owners from new including the vendor and his father.
