WW2 SHAPE SHIFTER

-

David Palmer is downsizing his collection of Wolseleys, selling a 1931 pick-up that appears to have last been taxed in 1947. It is believed it started life as a fabricbodi­ed saloon, maybe converted early in WW2. In ’47 it was owned by a J Twizell of Newcastle-upontyne, described as a ‘hay bogie.’

There’s then a gap in its history until Palmer bought it from a John Wain from Darlington in 2010, by which time it had lost its pick-up bed. The car remains in original condition except for the body, with all the factory instrument­s and bulkhead fittings still in place. If you’re interested, email davidpalme­reng@gmail.com
