Default A "new" one on me!

The Gawsworth Hall Classics Rally this year was rather less well attended by "interesting" cars this year. There were legions of modern Porsche and Morgans, which are OK, I suppose; but when you've seen one.........

However, I came across this old beauty, which is something I've never heard of; anyone know anything?

Thanks for that Andy. Wish that I had talked to the owner.

Pete I go to Knebworth House every year for the Pre-50 American Auto Club "Rally of the Giants" and do exactly the same thing. I am reviewing the images the following week and wish I had sought out the owner over something I missed at the time

Looks like my old headmaster's Wolsley 1500 behind too. Has it still got the potato in the exhaust pipe?

I think I understand what you mean, but photographs can be used in a documentary fashion as well
the first is more appealing as a photograph, but the second allows me to enjoy the context & in this instance seeing this grand automobile is a treat indeed
thanks for going to the trouble
