Hi Alan

My informant is a auto historian who lives in the USA . He has the book on loan . I would think it would be a very scarce item .He scanned the pages you see . I'm not sure, but Rootes themselves may have published the three volume set . I would love to see the whole book set, rather than bits of it .

Sadly , very few of those wartime Humbers made it down here . At least one Humber LRC did though, a friend here has its remains . Presently, he is rebuilding a FWD heavy utility , a pommie emigrant brought it out here in the late 1950's. Interestingly, it had a British army rebuild in the mid 1950's , scribblings were discovered inside the tailgate panels . It's a most impressive bit of kit I must say . Why on earth didn't they continue making them after the war .. would have been a ripper run about on the 'estate'.
