Hello Paul
Welcome to the Forum.
I am afraid PA0827 is not recorded as having survived. The file shows:-
Delivered via Wadham Bros, Waterlooville, to Miss G Gasser on 4th May 1934, Registration RV 4925, colour blue with blue upholstery and engine number 1080AP.
Does your friend own the car and are there any photos? Our Registrar for the PAs is Dick Morbey who would be pleased to receive any information for the record.

Hello George,
Thanks for the information, PA0827 has survived, has been in Italy since 1968 or before. I have been asked by my friend in Italy to try and find as much detail on its past history/owners etc etc. As being out of UK for so long she has dropped of the DVLA system. I realize its a Portsmouth registration number, any suggestions how to find ownership details before 1968. Will see if I can get some current pictures of the car. Thanks Paul. |

Hi Paul
Great news - another "new" car to the Register and we look forward to receiving some photos and more information as to who the lucky owner is.
I have never tried them but owners have used Kithead Trust to gain information.
Best regards
George

Hi George,
Little more info on PA0827, it appears that prior to her going to Italy in 1968, she is said to have been used for racing. Fitted with a Ford 100E engine with aquaplane head, supercharger etc. She has been fully restored and the owner in Italy is trying to find that detail in her history, then she maybe for sale. Here are some current pictures.
Thanks Paul

Hello Paul,
As you may have contact with the owner of PA0827, could you please urge him or her to get in touch with me at richard.morbey@gmail.com so that we can share information about this car. As George says the car is not really on our radar, although it does have a very recently awarded Register Number (3626).....

That looks a very professional conversion, and probably quite powerful. Something the car should retain at this time in its life?
