Who will be the first to identify this one, both by 1:1 and 1:43 builders?

That's a Bantam isn't it?

@bob-jackman  Correct, a development of the English Austin 7.

Well done, Bob, and John backs you up.  These American Austins were some of the finest 1/43 models around, at least in my opinion.  I understand that there will be no more.  Enjoy!
