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

Is it based on a mass-produced British 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?!

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.

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