1928 443 in South Africa

Posted by EmilSA On 2011/7/6 4:06:20

I came across this car about 10-15 years ago but it wasn't for sale at the time. It is now on the market and I considered buying it.

However, I've been advised that the body from the cowl backwards is 1980's South African homemade. On closer inspection I also started noticing the differences.

I must admit that it is still a nice car and that probably 99% of the world's poulation would never know that the bodywork is not original.

Please have a look at thi pics that I attached. The scan of the advert shows the side-view. Back door isn't suicide and has the curve of the mudguard, which it shouldn't have, etc.

Note that this car is RHD! If you are still interested in learning more about this car please let me know. If you want to buy it or parts thereof I can probably put you in touch with the owner.

It should still be a runner, although I haven't seen it go yet.

I'll be interested in the discussion that will hopefully follow.
