Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Sliding divider, speaking tube, luggage trunk, jump seats, pullup windows, Barker dipping headlight system with Lucas lamps, boa constrictor horn, factory fitted front brakes in 1925, later oil filter and overdrive. Rebody from an earlier chassis. Landaulette is functional and was down for the auction. A sound but aged old restoration. Good paint with some cracks and crazing. Good interior. Not used in some time.

Market commentary

A sound but curiously mixed origins car with rear bodywork that will accommodate the tallest of top hats and the most effusive ladies millinery. The successful buyer traveled here from Ireland specifically to secure this car, making the amount he had to bid to get it almost irrelevant.
