Re: EBay Finds
No. Give me an Armstrong any day. They were genuine 100 MPH cars. In any case, you're in one camp or another. I appreciate Jaguars but cannot enthuse about them like I can the Sphinxes. Same with the Humber, which I've always loved, and will never own a Rover. Incidentally the engines of the Series Super Snipes were designed and manufactured by Armstrong Siddeley on behalf of Humber at their Burlington Works, I guess I'm a sucker for cars that are a little bit different and shunned by the masses, for good reason.

I just fear it will be wasted, considering what little appreciation exists in the face of such uneducated popular folklore awash with a complete suppression of hard facts.

Not only should that 16 remain unrestored, I'd be running it on those plates as well for as long as humanly possible.
