Chassis No: 193 - Blue Label 10'10" wheelbase with a rather unattractive tourer body. It was a hairy thing to drive and required considerable work to bring it up to a desirable standard. As I also had the 4½-litre which was in such good order that I sold the 3 Litre to an enthusiast here in Melbourne and I have not seen it again in over forty years.
