H. J. Mulliner Body

This is one of just two 1948 4 door convertible Humber Pullman cars produced for the 1954 Royal Tour of Australia, with bodies built by H. J. Mulliner. Images of the Pullman convertible during the tour are attached. It is understood that the twin car to this has been fully restored, whilst this car was found left in a paddock for many years, until being aquired around 2010 for restoration. The convertible humbers were used amongst other Humbers including hard tops and a laundelette.

More details of the car are to follow. We have attached a couple of video's of the car - one showing where it currently lives, and the other of the car (or perhaps its twin) during the royal tour in 1954.

If anyone has any further information on this car, such as history or additional photographs, please get in contact with us so this can be passed onto the current owner and added to the cars file.
