Description
1939 SS saloon... 4 door with wires. A delightful pre-war motor car, reputed to be 1 family owner and obviously well cared for over the years.
Drives exactly as you would expect with all the correct noises and a distinct vaguery to the steering due to the fitted cross ply tyres...
The tan hide is in excellent order with evidence of a couple of repairs adding to the over all presence. The wood dash and picnic tables are without damage and the instrumentation is as per original... all gauges are working, however the fuel gauge has the odd off day ! Steel sliding roof works and is watertight.
Turn the key and press the starter, the old girl bursts into life and quickly settles down to a steady tickover... select gear and drive away without fuss... semaphores working correctly although the right side sometimes refuses to sit in its place!
These pre war SS motor cars are becoming very hard to find, an easy car to own, enjoy and maintain, spares are plentiful and an active club provides help and advice. Generally this fine old car is far from mint condition, however an able Diy'er could cope with improvements and servicing..
