I've lost track again. What is this sporty car, and from when does it date?

Experts?

FORD "Y" tourer

barrett · July 19, 2016, 04:45:09 AM

Yes, based on a Ford - now, what is it?

luisps · July 19, 2016, 01:56:09 PM

Were several versions of tourers made on the 8 HP "Y" base, that one looks as the 2 seater offered by Wilsons (Kingston) Ltd. in January 1933.

sorry, I missed that!

It's not by Wilsons

1933 Ford Y by Abbey?

barrett · August 12, 2016, 08:59:09 AM

Not those. I think Greyhound was a style of body, possibly by Abbotts?

Less known than the suggestions so far.

Arrow?
