The car in above
photograph has been identified as
Chassis no. 590 by Phillip Schudmak.
Phillip says, "I understand that
this is actually a 3/4½ and
is chassis 590, owned by John Vallings
of Auckland for many years. He imported
it into New Zealand in the 1980s and
still has it. I understand the registration
number is now JV." — February

"Your info is correct but
you have the engine no. wrong. I have
corrected it. Also It is still in
my ownership colour green, on the
road and working!!!" — John
