Anyone seen the 1947 for sale in this months VW Ultra. Oh let my 6 numbers come up this evening

I was at the Brooklands auction approx 7 years ago when John Miller successfully bid and purchased the car.
I was actually there with the view of buying it myself,after viewing the car i did not place a bid.Much work is needed and a lot of money needs to be spent.John to his credit is not trying to hide these points.
It is a very rare car.I hope someone buys it and does a good job of the restoration,it will be lovely to see it on the road again.

It would look nice next to [/b][/i]our[i]🅱 '47 😃

I've seen this car years ago and it does need a considerable amount of work to be made good. It used to be owned by a chap called Tony Oliver (if I remember correctly!) before it was auctioned. Tony found it in a scrapyard in 1962 and paid £10 for it!!!

You are joking!!! Is John selling the 47? How come?
I got the rare priviledge of going to see his collection last summer when he was going to buy my 48. He needed a 48 to fill the gap in his otherwise complete chronology of cars from 47 to 52. I don't understand...
The 47 is very nice even though it needs some work, mostly mechanically
though. The engine has got very little compression left.
Still, can't knock it...
