1937 Hillman minx foursome drophead coupe For Sale

My delightful hillman foursome drophead coupe has been used by me regularly over the last 5 years.
previous tax discs going back to 1985 and mot certificates available
green log book present. some service history also present.
the car is in good condition for its year. The green leather is excellent but she would benefit from a new set of carpets.
the body work and chassis are in sound condition although the car would benefit from a respray at some time in the future.
still on original 6 volt system. She starts and runs well although the buyer must understand this is a 30's vehicle and as such suspension, steering etc requires some allowance from the driver.
tyres are fine, as is the spare.
lights and electrics all work ok.
the 1185cc engine has the benefit of a rare alloy cylinder head normally fitted to the higher spec sunbeam talbots. Oil pressure is fine.
the soft top is in good condition and can be used fully to protect both driver and passengers or the "de ville" position can be adopted which covers passengers in the rear seat only. Of course the top can be secured fully down which presents the car at its best in my opinion.
extra spotlights are for aesthetic purposes only.
to absolve my responsibility i must remind the buyer that my vehicle is being sold as a "running collection of parts" which can go straight onto the road or alternatively can be viewed as a project fur further restoration, please understand this point.
