Thank you, Paul, for that info. I'll try to check it out on a web search later. Don't know why I didn't ask the owner about it when I had a chance. He was standing around it at the time.
Dumb me! Anyway,I thought he did a pretty good job on it. Hope I did it some justice in photographing it

Your photos are very good. Between the people and the way the cars are jammed together it is hard to get good shots at these shows. You did a fine job!

Good call. I was close with NSU.
My 60 year old memory battery is low. It sometimes needs a jump.
My first car was a '57 Renault Dauphine.

I knew I was in the ballpark. There were so many of those one hit wonders back then.
It was an early import because it was left-hand drive.
I was not sure of its linage because England made some God Awful things back then as well.

Some of the English sports cars had to qualify as among the most unreliable vehicles ever made. Fun to drive when you could get them to run.
