OK. But I am still looking for the easy part of the puzzle: Where does the chassis come from?

No. Little hint: This Railton, like many others, used a chassis from another manufacturer, from another country...

Understand.
Railtons were built on modified american Hudson chassis. Terraplane and Super Six.

OK. To be sure - do we consider such brands as Rolls-Royce and Bentley in their current foreign-owned state as still alive or dead?

And next try - Railton?
