SUSPENSION:

Independent front suspension and an unusual but interesting Girling-designed “hydro-mechanical” hybrid cable/hydraulic braking system are also notable. Though relatively frumpy compared to more rakish competitors like MG’s TD Midget, this car would be a far rarer site on US roads, and though getting it back together and in top driving condition will take time and money, what can be seen suggests it’d be a rewarding experience.
