I agree, that RHD 356A looks a really nice car. Very nice, never seen it before to my knowledge.

Hi Roy , hope you and the car are well !
Fred H of PCGB says the last time he saw this car was circa 2000 , it has changed hands since . Maybe it will show up at Hedingham

I saw it at Hedingham in 2011 or 2012 (when I was specifically looking at "aquamarine blue" cars). I have photos somewhere and will post when I have chance.

Hi Keith , more pics will be good . This particular car is close to non-metallic aquamarine in colour ,however its paint is actually metallic in the flesh . It is not the ex Border Reivers / ex Scots lighthouse car that Jason got gazumped on !

No it's not that car, that was 35VHX.

Apologies for the very poor quality... searched high and low for the digital images without success so have had to photograph the hard copy photos I have. Both taken Hedingham 2011. Definitely a darker colour than flat aquamarine (which I don't think was available in 56), so presumed non-standard.

Don't mention the infamous 356 in a steel storage container in the middle of nowhere (35 VHX) otherwise Jason will get wound up again (and rightly so)!!!

Good work Keith , and you were too late with the warnings about Jason (!) , maybe he does not read 356 threads anymore

Does anyone know the chassis number of this car?
I saw a 57 Aquamarine over red car for sale back in 1992 with chassis number 101046 is this the same car?
