Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Munge in this case means the top is dirty, deteriorated, bleached out and probably dry rotted beyond use. Wood framed windshield, cyclops headlight, bulb horn, two cylinder engine, side lights. Competently restored some time ago and museum displayed since, showing age but sound and complete. Decent cosmetics. Not used in a long time and in need of re commissioning.

Market commentary

A handsome and eminently cute little open car. Mr. Toads Wild Ride, or at least something Mr. Toad would have enjoyed. Bought at a hammer bid 25% over Christies high estimate, a modest premium to be able to terrorize the byways with the bulb horn going Poop, Poop.
