The Replica that you need. (UPDATE; Dacre Stubbs'car)

Among the dozens of attractive cars in H&H's 3rd October auction is this one that's making us crazy. Of all cars it is the mother of all replicas. No fear to get funny looks when you meet your friends with this one. It is the best 'fake' you can get! A true factory replica made in 1934. The ultimate British light sports car. The backbone breaking stiff springs, the biceps breeding direct steering and howling chain gear 'box' altogether are far too much for beginners, but the ultimate for the true connoisseurs. The Frazer Nash TT Replica is a car to savour. Alas, we are afraid we will not be alone. The car already has drawn crowds of dreamers and cheque bookers. Moreover, the fifties photo here is hiding an interesting omen. When you zoom in on the photo, it is as if the man on the left is making a call with his mobile telephone! Doing an early telephone bid ? (photo courtesy H&H Classic Auctions)
UPDATE by Martin Stubbs who recognised the photo made by hisa father in 1947; more to follow later)
