You're right! Not a Sprite, and more difficult to solve.

Or what is called the Fencers-Mask Sprite 2-seater special which was shown at the 1935 Olympia Motor Show which technically was a modified MPH with a 12-4 engine?

A shot in the dark: an Alfa Romeo 6C with a body by Corsica?

nicanary · « **Reply #24 on:** June 22, 2019, 11:59:15 AM »

No Alfa connection. It is a European chassis with the engine from another continent.
