Applied regularly to many other '20's & '30's cars.

Well, that's the kind of thing that makes a long build tolerable.....If I can't find time to get out to the garage and build, I can at least look for more pictures or try to find out more about the car.

Yeah, the funny part is that later on (I think in the 1950s and 1960s) they started legally making austins.....got a formal licencing agreement and everything instead of just ripping the Brits off off like at the start.

Odd, I would have expected that search to return Del Long's EMod "jeep"

Looks like Cherokee or the pickup version of it (Comanche)... but maybe not...

I can't see the pic your linking, my work filter thinks it's pron. But that looks too car like to me, too tall a windshield to be a truck/SUV isn't it?

1933 Chevrolet 6 phaeton. My father had one just like this, except LHD. Same colors and everything. His was an Eagle 6, not a Master 6, so it had hard cases for the spares, not just canvas covers.

He drove it every day into the early '50s, then occasionally until about 1970 when the engine quit. He started restoring it off and on, but never got it done before he died, unfortunately.
