I asked for that!Rasputin wrote:Steel colour
The case involves a 1956 WHITE S11 4dr which, according to BMIHT records, was
built/despatched BLACK!
Any suggestions?

The bodyshell that the Club owns is either black or very dirty. Any new panel that I have seen has always been black, so it sounds reasonable as a general protection against the atmosphere.

Was CKD finish available for Hm.Mkt. cars - no mention of it in books.

Usually,with claims, a BMIHT Certificate is sufficient for DVLA.
However, on THIS occation - as the HC doesn't match - I've had to contact 2 possible
county archives to find contempory registration records that hopefully DO add up.
