Why has the Humber got a sump on the hood?

That was considered clever by the owner. The car was a cover/center fold in Custon Car and the paint was considered very clever and ahead of its time.....

I don't think we had seen much lace work over here at that point.

There's me thinking the sump was a budget cowl induction scoop

Mmmm, lace paint panels...

Please stop putting these pics up, the Dart is now cowering in the lock-up in fear of getting a 70s paint job before the summer

can't remember but i when ever i would go over Gasoline ally to buy some stuff i would have a good look at his customers cars photos while drinking my tea .., along with " money hungry " i am pretty sure there was a black Goat with Marshall Dixon on it , long time a go now i might be getting mixed up

, he also brought in that red 70 charger R/T that i posted in ( old pictures of Santa pod )
