Or can anyone identify this car? Similar to NA0762 below, but not quite the same.

Lew,
this car is NA0285, MMM Reg.No.3396

It was offered for sale by a Vintage Car Dealer in Germany in 2006.
I have some more photos of the car.

Thanks, Gerhard. However, can you also identify the body style (Maker) as it is clearly not your standard NA 2-seater.

Sorry Lew,
but I have no idea who made the conversion of the rear end.

The bodywork back to the rear of the doors certainly look standard to me, the alterations to the rear half look to be very good and not unlike the Cresta body.

Perhaps the chassis files might help in showing if the car was sold as a either a standard bodied car or just a chassis.

There's nothing in the files about the original bodywork. Lew, can you provide any current ownership details please?

Regards

Robin

I have nothing on this particular car beyond what Gerhard related above. The reason I ask is related to my earlier query regarding NA0762. The owner of NA0762 sent me the photo as is is very similar to this (the red) car. His father purchased NA0762 back in the 1960s while in Germany, but has never been able to identify the coachbuilder. Since this is a more recent photo of a very similar car, he thought they may have come from the same source. Robin, I believe you have the details on NA0762. Nothing has changed from the current register details.
