This particular vehicle was originally manufactured on 15th June 1948 and was dispatched on 29th June 1948 to the distributor Hoffman of New York City, USA. She was then exported to Spain in the 1950's where she has been until 2014 when she was brought to the UK. She has undergone a full mechanical overhaul for the past year by Classic Restoration and Service Ltd in Chichester. It is thought that no work had been carried out on the vehicle for the past 20 years or more, but she had been stored well in a dry climate. There is no sign of any rust on the body or underneath.

The original documents show that she was a black body with red interior, as she stands today and one would think that the bulk of the car is original. The engine has had an extensive check over and a new inlet manifold was necessary to house the reconditioned carburetors.

The independent chassis is rust free, it has also been cleaned protected and repainted and the leaf springs have been rebuilt as they had lost their tensile strength. A thorough brake overhaul has also been carried out.

The car drives really well and accelerates easily up through the gears and cruises happily at 60mph on the open road with more to spare. The car has recently passed through an MOT and will be able to be registered on the road in the UK with a new V5 and registration number from 1949, which has been applied for.

A fine car otherwise, but why on earth is the engine and cylinder head green and the spark plug wires red? :)

The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
