It is I. I'd very much like it to go to someone with Seven connections and thought I'd tentatively tried to seek an owner here through the recent thread elsewhere. The little restoration/archive site (https://woodie7.car.blog ) for the car explains what we know of the history, but - Colin - it IS essentially a special that probably originally came from a coachbuilding company employee doing work on accident damaged (rear-ended) small cars for a bit of extra folding - in, say, the 40s. The wood 'kit' was likely used on a 28/29 firstly from the relationship of its windscreen height to rear when found i.e. wrong! It is trigger's broom - it has clearly seem a lot of changes but Martin and Dave Prior have adapted the rear window:arch heights to properly fit the scuttle it presently wears. There were remnants of full-size doors which had never been hung. I saw it (for me) as a more modern open chummy with an openish top, hence the chummy half-height doors and the sunshine saloon-style roof covering. Would make a great camper, and its fiendishly light so feels pretty powerful with the 4 speed box.
