Yes, this model is now accepted by CCCA as "CLASSIC", and is eligible for their CARavans and Grand Classics.

 

By the way, I'm familiar with this particular car and can speak to the quality of its condition. The owner/restorer is meticulous in his work and care.

I love BAT, but it seems that prewar cars don't do very good there. A 1931 Cadillac V12 coupe sold for $126k. A 1932 Packard eight roadster got stuck at $132.5k and a 1939 Packard V12 formal sedan was at $38k. Post war sports cars seem do very well on BAT.

Thanks for your thought's

It appears that  my kind of pre war car is completley out of favor at this time.

I'll give it some time at this price and see what happens.At this time it's in pristine condition so if 

l start using it on tours that's when the chips and scratches happen and its downhill from there

I understand your chip and scratch concerns, but unless you found old primers and paints to restore it the finish is incredibly more durable than those of the past. Unless you plan to rip down gravel roads at 50 MPH there's not much damage that can happen. Even after a few thousand miles the worst you'll encounter for work is a day under it with some soap and water. Putting miles on such cars is really 1/2 the juice of having them. It looks as though in your case the juice is really worth the squeeze. Cars with miles aquired are always better than the wallflower that never gets asked to "dance", if ya know what I mean. 

 

FInally, as to "out of favor", that's the fault of time and current owner's changing habits. The fun and marvel of vintage cars gets better with time ,not worse. Enthusiasm is contageous so get em out there and let's all stop with this "...nobody wants..." BS once and for all. Van Halen said it too, "Everybody Wants Some" so show em what they want y'all.

Ken, I agree that a car that has been used carefully

has more appeal than one that has barely gotten out of the trailer.

 

If you can say, "I've driven this car numerous times this year,

and put on 300 [or 500] miles without any problems," that 

gives confidence to a potential buyer.
