Hall & Hall have Mk III 1103 ex-Aitken on their stand this year that looks like fully restored

Too bad about those lights on the front end...but it WAS built that way.

Nice Type 41 Bugatti behind it, too....what is that little red car to the left, there?

 

[Jos]

The type 41 is Tom Wheatcroft's replica there as a tribute to him

The red ((I'm told) is an Alfa Roméo Nardi Danese with Motto body, which took part in two Mille Miglia & two Targa Florio

Beside that is a type 46 built on a Schlumf chassis with a body by Ashton Keynes restorations

Good review/information here (in French)

1103 is a 6400-mile from new car that has been parked/displayed in the National Motor Museum for many, many years. It has received a coat of polish but requires full mechanical refurbishment, which hopefully it will receive shortly.

I volunteer to do this, no problem. All they have to do is send it to me in Annapolis, MD. Happy to help out.

Jim,
Can i help ?
I have a screwdriver that only works anti clockwise.
What will we do with all the parts that it undoes ?

 

[Jim Rosenthal]

Put them on my car, maybe.........
