That door line sure looks like a Singer. Nine sports - has the suicide door and the door shape but not the same vent in front of the door or the same windshield. I do wonder if it might be a special based on a Sindar?

Looking at this - Singer LeMans - clearly not it but it might be the look they were going for. What increasingly makes me think it is a custom is the louvers on the rocker panel - I have never seen those on a production car and can't imagine why they are there unless they decided to run the exhaust through the rockers. Interesting pic for sure!

JP - there are louvers on the rocker panel of the car in my post.
Sorry, badly worded post - it is your car I was referring to. I've not seen louvers on production cars making me think the one in your post is a special.

OK - thanks. Note that there are louvers on rocker panels in my photo, as well as the original poster's photo.
oops, you're right - no brain this morning.
