Solved - MJW #468 - HSM Triumph Dolomite Straight Eight 1938

This is NOT a repost.
The question for the point is under what name was this car marketed, by whom and when.
Details also required of the base marque and model.

Is it a HSM Sports from 1934, based on Triumph Dolomite Straight Eight? If so, it was built by Robert Arbuthnot and G. Harnponi.

It is an HSM Sports based on the Triumph Dolomite Straight Eight but not in 1934.
It was marketed by them for one year only - 193x and do you know what HSM stands for.
Locked for you until your next reply.

I had it as 1938 but close enough for your point.
