Name this car....


Recommended Posts

Thanks, Michael! Happy New Year to you, too. 
I do not know, but I would be surprised as the car is from the UK, although I agree that the position of the radio is a little bit odd  (but it would not be possible to reach it from the left side).

Best,

Andreas

Correct, Wilson. As far as I could find out this car is from 1953. 

Interestingly there is more information in the German Wikipedia entry for the Donald Healy Motor Company than on the English one, where this car appears to be missing. I found this one in English though: https://www.lancasterinsurance.co.uk/news/2017/july/03/the-alvis-healey-at-the-classics-supercars-show-sherborne-castle/.

Your turn!

Here is your next one. I think this will cause a lot less head scratching than AJZ's last ultra rare car. I would not have got that without the 3 litre engine clue. Photo taken with R9 and 50mm Summicron-R ROM and the underwhelming Kodak ProImage 100 film. Scanned on a Noritsu scanner.

OK Stuart, here is the whole car less the radiator badge.

Indeed - a Chevrolet 6 from 1931 at Samode Palace near Jaipur, the property of the brothers of the Maharaja of Jaipur. This lovely palace was built some 450 years ago, about an hour's drive north of Jaipur, to keep troublesome brothers well away from Jaipur politics. Now an excellent hotel. I had cloned our the radiator badge. Taken with R9 and 50 Summicron-R final ROM  series. It certainly has that gangster look about it. 

Your turn

Thank you Wilson.  Instead of working m way down I should have started at the bottom and worked up.

Let's try this one:
