Hi Roger,

Thanks for following this up. The car has an interesting history. I was also fairly keen on a late '30's coupe or coupe convertible. There isn't a lot to choose from down here in Oz! I don't really care if it's RHD or LHD, since I'm comfortable driving LHD.

Shannons advertised the car as having vinyl seats, whereas Theodore Bruce say it's leather as per factory. I'm pretty sure it's leather.

The provenance on the vehicle is fascinating. Most lose this info over the years, but it's nice that this vehicle still has its history to go with it.

There's a stunning regatta-blue 1937 Super-8 1501 for sale in the US, but I'm thinking that'll go for about 5 times my budget.


Cheers, Lloyd
