Description
Stately and rare 1949 Humber Pullman MkII.
Needs light restoration and is in largely original condition. Was running and driving before being stored a couple of years ago due to other commitments. It is still regularly started and checked but hasn’t moved for some time. Original registration number and buff log book, as well as modern V5C.
The Thrupp and Maberly bodywork is in good condition structurally and no evidence of any welding underneath. Paintwork is old and has marks but acceptable for its age, with no significant rust.
4. 1L original straight six engine starts and runs. The column shift 4 speed manual gearbox is in working order too.
New exhaust and ignition system, converted to negative earth and a disguised alternator. All other electrical/ mechanical systems in working condition including the semaphore indicators and optional 3 way heating system.
The brake system has been overhauled, as has the fuel system.
The interior is largely original and needs tidying. The boot has new wood lining. The chrome work is in good original condition.
First owner was the 5th Baron Lord Harris of Kent. As part of his duties as Vice-Lieutenant of Kent he claimed to have carried the Queen Mother in the car on several occasions. Documentary evidence provided.
The car is located in Newport, South Wales. Open to sensible offers. Please message me in the first instance.
