Re: '34 LeMans on BaT
This one is basically an estate sale. It could be quite negotiable for someone wanting quick entry into pre war Singer motoring. Nice drivable car, but needs some detailing to make it right.

Re: '34 LeMans on BaT
Sad to say, this car has now returned to England. One less pre war Singer in North America. However, it is in good hands with Colin Gibson. I also note from comments on Bat that Ron's '33 Nine Sports is about to hit the road after an 8 year restoration by Morgan West. Here's hoping the time taken has done it justice. This will make it the 2nd of two Nine Sports on the road in North America.

I hope that Ron's car gets back on the road but I have heard that its "almost ready" for several years now....

Re: '34 LeMans on BaT
Yes it certainly seems to have been an epic rebuild for a car that Ron just wanted to get on the road.
