Sir

I wonder if through your columns your readers can help me with information on a 1911 Marion Speedster, serial number 30839, I have recently acquired.

The car is in a very original condition having laid in a Danish furniture store for a number of years. The original speedo still works and shows a reading of 9000, which bears out the excellent mechanical condition of the chassis. The car is fitted with a 4-cylinder L-head engine, separate cylinder blocks on an aluminium crank case, camshaft-driven lubrication system and a Shedler carburettor.
