1937 Amazing Two owner Ruby, Second owner since 1964!!! For Sale

This remarkable Ruby has only 2 owners from new and the last and second one, from 1964 on. It was used as a daily driver for many years and then he stored it in his garage and added it to his collection. It the 90s it had a complete engine rebuild, new bearings etc, and has covered minimal mileage since, The roof lining was renewed. The sunroof is excellent as a result. It even has the original running board rubber mats. The seats are lovely and all original, and the car performs briskly. Its brakes are real stoppers and it is a cheeky little Ruby. Its last owner, not in good health, decided it and the rest of his collection should go to new homes and be used and it is ready for just that. I havnt cleaned it as I think it would spoil its patina, the paintwork however is in very nice condition not showing any appreciable problem, and the instruments and steering wheel are all correct and nice. Youll never find another like this and with this provenance. Im on the details below or the details below
