This is Jenny Croutear’s dark blue 1932 Junior Saloon, which she inherited from her late father Harry Little. Harry first saw the car standing in an orchard bought by the building firm he was working for. The owner, who had bought the car new in Bromsgrove in December 1931, told him to take it away if he was interested in it. So, Harry gave it a general clean up, freed off the clutch and brakes, put some petrol in and ran it for 12 months. The car then lay in the garage for nearly 30 years. After cleaning out the rubbish from the garage one day, Harry ‘found’ the car again and decided to restore it. After several years work it passed the MOT test-first time-on October 19th, 2000. First outing was to a local show in November, when they had a great time. Although the original owner died about 6 years ago, his wife is still alive and is looking forward to seeing the car again as she had gone with her husband when he bought it 70 years ago. There can’t be many 70-year-old cars with only two owners
