A correct, running chassis, complete with radiator, louvred bonnet, dashboard, instruments, engine bay ancillaries, etc, etc, and in fact consists of more or less everything that the chassis would have left the factory with in 1935. Fitted with a temporary seat to enable it to be driven. The engine, L9M, is the original, and runs nicely. When new, the chassis was fitted with an Arthur Mulliner saloon body, and was owned by George Bernard Shaw. Comes with a buff logbook from the 1950s, which will enable the original registration number to be re-allocated when the car is completed. 

Chassis No. GHG39.                            Reg No. BYE 779.                          £15,000.
