I guess the lights we see are fog-lights. You can just make out round circles above the fog-lights, slightly offset, which might be the main lights. The top end of the grille is slightly curved upwards, but downwards on the Allards. Also the side-grilles don't match. So far I am not able to tell what it is. I have looked at some options but all turned out wrong.

2491tj ◊ 2007-05-08 20:50	possibly early 60s Riley 1.5 saloon
