True barn find, one owner for 35 years, he bought it from the Portuguese military and then parked it, it is very complete and in a good nick, he started taking it apart a few years ago for a refresh. Ended up getting rid of the Humber Scout Car, since I have always fancied the Humber heavy.....plus it has a turret and goes boom...

Wow, what an incredible find. May be a bit hard to tuck under the Christmas tree.

Good find.
Be wary of the Portugese army's maintenance though. I rebuilt an engine from one of these and they had rebored it in two different bore sizes, three bores of each!

Richard, I have access to 3 other engines and blocks, so definitely will be doing a complete engine rebuild!

An amazing find Lance, looking forward to seeing the Humber Armoured Car when you have it back on the road.
