An Australian Holden-powered special with the grille from a Massey-Ferguson tractor?

Is it based on a mass-produced British chassis ?

SACO · January 24, 2018, 05:00:04 AM

No , a sport British chassis !

oko94 · January 24, 2018, 05:07:01 AM

MG chassis ?

Looks as if it's a late pre-war rebody of some 1930s thing we'd all recognise!

It is a 1934 SS Jaguar.

I seem to remember reading some years ago that Pourtout 'clothed' an SS 'Jaguar' in the 1930s, but have never seen any photographic proof. I wonder if this is that car?!

Allan L · January 24, 2018, 07:09:49 AM

Probably based on an SS90 (which was sidevalve) rather than the SS100 Jaguar which was o.h.v., but in the minds of the lay public and auctioneers any SS car is a Jaguar.

Wendax · January 24, 2018, 07:26:03 AM

If it is really a 1934 car, it should be a SS1, I guess.
