Bloody hell, well done! I had never heard of it.
Its not my pic, nor have I seen it, my cuz emailed me it in excitement few days ago, his job sometimes takes him down paths and drives. He's touting it round some banger drivers.
As I suspected I was right about everything.

Oh dear. Hope the rigger boots don't get hold of it, I would have though it completely useless to them - 1100cc of 60 year old tin. I wondered with that sun visor whether this made its way here via Oz - they did sell 'em down under (and anywhere else that would have them).

It is a cousin of the Borgward, part of the same group. It wasn't until I zoomed in on the over-large rear fins that I twigged what it was....

Spotted last week in the supermarket. Remember those days when you could aimlessly wander about?

About as far from an ideal shopping car as you could get I guess.

Likely Martin Buckley's, he lives not far from here.
He has a white SM I occasionally see him in.

Nice find, that....1942 Dodge Business Coupe. No rear seat - just a gurt big boot for travelling samples. Or moonshine.
