Nice video. What country is this 1952 car in? I wish I still had the 52 my brother I owned in the 70's.

I never worked out where the chrome bumber came from. Drove this car home from Hertfordshire to Sussex with a piece of rope going inside from one door to the other to keep them closed, maybe 2 brake cylinders working and altogther the worst ride I ever undertook. I really flinch even now to think how really stupid I was to do that.

Still like the car though, I wonder what went through the minds of the crusher men when they saw that lovely restorable shape ready to be pressed into a rectangular lump of steel and rust?

Such is life

Hi Roy, it's Sweden

Oh, do you not have to warm up a 356 engine before you check the level?

Nice car though, beautiful in fact - like your own, Roy!

Thanks Steve, never gave Sweden a thought. Yes, I wondered why he went to the oil dipstick.

Looks like a beetle blade bumper to me.
