I would love to trace the history of my Ruby reg. CKJ182 prior to 1977 when she was owned by Derek C Baxter of Digby Lincoln.The car was then red with black. Originally it was completely black and in 1935 it was sold by Martin Walker of Folkestone and Broadstairs to a Mr C W Martin on the 10th July 1935.All the numbers match and she has not been restored since the colour change which was possibly in the late 60's or early 70's. i would like to trace the restorer and any owners or anyone who knows the car. She is fully roadworthy and covers a fair few miles over the Lake District. I have had the block converteed to unleaded with exh. v/v inserts. one small problem at present is flooding of the 26VA carb. after switching off. any cures out there ? this is also my first time on the WWW. I am also a member of the PWA7C + NECPWA & Cumbria Classic Car Club.
