WPJ 752 was a car I new well during the 80s, it belonged to an elderly woman who lived nearby, she had owned it since the mid fifties. I think it was a 55 model and when I first new it, it was largely original. Unfortunately the old lady was talked into getting it resprayed in about 1987 (completley unecessarily) and during the process the car lost its original wings, badge bar and ancilliary lights.
The Lady died in about 1989 I think, and I don't know what happened to the car after that, but a check of the DVLA website indicates that it was road taxed until 1995.
I wonder if it still exists?
Mike.
Here are a couple of photos of it I found from before the respray...
