LOST
CAR
HF
9797 registered June
1934.
Purchased from an owner in
Colindale, London in the early
1950's. David Nelms of
Maidenhead restored the car and
used it for every day work
until he sold it on to a new
owner in Middlesex in 1959,
where it was last seen.
Records show that it was not
registered with the new
DVLA reorganisation in
1977.
The original colour
was dark green but was later
re-sprayed pale yellow with
tan upholstery. Its
distinctive feature was
the absence of
the n/s wind deflector
(the reason for which was never
known). It had its original
Triumph
832cc s.v. engine and
was fitted with
cycle
wings.
From known chassis numbers and
the registration date, it would
suggest a VS
341/342/344 or later
number. It may have been broken
up for spares in which case the
front axle, chassis
cross-member or bulkhead may
reveal a vital clue.
Any
known information would be
much appreciated.
