A point for the make, model, year and who built the body.........

This should also be easy for the experts but don't forget I need to know who built the body

1952 Taylor-bodied Buckler Mk X

A little more information:
G.F Taylor, along with Johnny Offord, were Buckler's 'in house' body builder, housed on the same site as the buckler factory, although they also built bodies for other marques, including the Healey Westland bodies.
The Mk X was the first Buckler with a 'standard' body, all the built-up cars carried aluminium Taylor bodywork, although it was possible to order an unclothed chassis.

And I was pretty sure it was a Ghia-Aigle bodied Jowett Jupiter Cabriolet!
But since barrett is an expert on the special-bodied Jowetts I must be wrong!

[woodinsight]

That's correct Barrett - excellent full answer.
70th point for you.

Feel free to continue using this source, published when I was 1 year old! (I'm guessig you found this whilst researching my Austin A70 puzzle....)

I use this source and other similar ones regularly.
At the time the A70 article was published I was 42 (just a few years older than you!)
