Who owns this car (pre-auction) ???

 

[Rob Klein]

I think it's out of Texas

 

[Ryan L]

Restored in the UK not that long back if I remember correctly.

 

Any ideas where this might have been taken ? Definitely the UK, early in it's life, perhaps FAV Slough ?

Yes, that's the back of the FAV, (by the time of your picture JWA) factory at Banbury Avenue, Slough Trading Estate. Pictured in April 2024 below.
