Colourful Marginal A7 Motoring - 1954

[John Cornforth]

Looks to me as though the artist was working from a photograph.  Note the starting handle correctly at 9 o'clock, the radiator Austin script nicely central and in line with the headlights, and the radiator side plates in place.  The underbonnet wiring is tidy too, including the two rubber rings to hold the HT leads in place.  I once sourced some of these from a Mo**is spares stallholder at Beaulieu.  I do hope he's not going to wipe off his grinding paste with a petrol soaked rag though !
