Someone bought that??
Someone is entering a world of pain! I hope they have their own machine tools and a big workshop. My next door neighbour had a similar project on - took him 20 years. Mind you, it's a beautiful old car now.

What about a Wolseley - somehow the radiator sign rings a bell but I don't know still the time, so to speak. Doubtless a British car. Yeah, I believe it's a Wolseley.

Wolseleys of that age look too angular so I don't think so:

They adopted a "softer" grill shape later, but too late for this car:

Apparently most of the old Wolseley saloons like that rusted away because the build quality was dreadful.
