Landcrabs on the bottom aren't they? ;)

The photo of the Rootes dealership above is a touched up black and white shot isn't it? I remember quite a few postcards being done that way. I still have a few tucked away I think. Photography has changed SO much in our lifetimes.

Looks like one of the beach cars from the factory so not sure it is a ‘kit car’ as such.
