Rata Road Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 There is an elderly gent down the road who showed me this pic. One of the kids is him. Story goes that one morning their mother said to the kids eat up your porridge as there is a surprise in the garage. They found this old car covered in bird crap and dust that their Father had bought home and they had to help clean it down and then over time sand the paint off etc. Their Father eventually got the car looking good and on the road. If anybody on here good enhance the pic for me I would love to take it back to him. The car is probably English, any idea of make?

dictator27 Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Not a lot to help identifying the car, but possibly a 1931/33 Triumph 9. WAG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dictator27 Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Bottom front edge of the front door is different so it isn't a Triumph.🤤 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rata Road Posted June 2, 2023 Author Share Posted June 2, 2023 It did look like a triumph at first but like some have spotted it is slightly different. Thanks for enhancing the pic and thanks for your efforts guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rata Road Posted June 3, 2023 Author Share Posted June 3, 2023 Excellent work guys. I see the 27 & the 31 has a ridge under the door handles which goes slightly past the front edge of the front door but the 28 & 29 doesn't have a ridge at all so I guess its either a 27 or a 31 Singer Junior 8. You agree? http://www.simoncars.co.uk/singer/sjunior.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
