The base car shouldn't be too difficult.

For one point, please respond and identify this car and the coachbuilder involved.

It is a Frazer-Nash BMW 320, but I have a different coachbuilder. Locked for you until your next reply.

Abbott was the one I had. But I see that both names are mentioned in connection with this picture. Anyway, the point is yours. Can somebody else shed some light on this body?

This is the 1937 Bertelli Bodied 328 Frazer Nash BMW, which I own.  The chassis was imported from the BMW works and bodied by the Bertelli Brothers, even though some marketing material was published with the intention of marketing English bodied 2 Litre and 1 1/2 litre cars, the production never went ahead other than this car.
I am looking to sell the project in its current barn find condition.
