Looks rather like a Sunbeam Alpine although the bit of tin down the centre of the bonnet may indicate something else.

So a little more help you can rule out everything French, and you can rule out everything Italian

But one of Micks words is correct. but not the same spelling in the brochure.

Just let me know if you want any more pictures.

The pallet at the left hand side of the photo I can provide a bigger image for, but the eagle eyed ICE expert could go straight to the car with that bit of the image alone.

In a word - maybe !

I was already chasing spiders on the web (where else would you find them

) when you put up the half spider picture but I only found it when I used a visual search on RIS!!

It is a cross between an MGB and the Fiat Spyder in my mind, nice looking car though!

The empty shell made me think of something Eastern European or German, so it didn't take long to find it when looking for a 'German Spider'
