The UK Tax office database gives the following additional information:

Date of First Registration 17 01 1984
Year of Manufacture 1955
Cylinder Capacity (cc) 2433CC

All these data will have been as declared by the first UK based owner. The following observations may be relevant:

The declared year of manufacture may only be approximate. Since the car was first registered in the UK 29 years after its approximate year of manufacture, it probably spent its earlier decades in another country, possibly somewhere warmer and dryer where cars rust less. The steering wheel is nevertheless on the rights side, so if the car spent its first decades oversea, it was probably somewhere where they (1) liked British cars AND (2) drove on the left. Australia? New Zealand? Malta, even? the cylinder capacity of 2433cc is believed to have been the standard engine capacity for this car throughout its life.
