No, I don't have to keep it going this is a dumb idea.

You only think it's a dumb idea because you didn't come up with it. However, you basically did. So, that makes *you* dumb... if it's a dumb idea.

Actually, I think it's a six. Regardless, what it's doing in the back of a nice restoration at a show is anyone's guess - maybe it's a show/swap meet?

You're right I was counting those freakishly long headbolts like piston shafts.

HI DO you have any details on the two utes (1st and last ones)

I’m looking to buy one and would like to know if you took the photos or can lead me to where you got them from so I can try to see if they are for sale.

Thanks

Scottty

Unfortunately, I scoured these pics from the internet, and it’s been so long since I did so that I couldn’t say where they came from. Further bad news, I’ve just spent 25-30 minutes or so trying to re-find the sources and only found one - though that’s better news than I thought I’d have to offer.

The other, my little post here may be the last remaining place on the web. I tried searches for visually similar image, searches for “Armstrong Siddeley Utility Coupe”, “... Station Coupe”, and even “...truck” as well as the basic one for ...ute”. What can I say, I endorse your aim. Apart from that, and seeing that there’s a ragged one for sale in the UK for nearly 11 thousand pounds, and that one sold on the US west coast for $29,0000, I’ve probably helped as much as I can.

Not a problem at all.

Thanks very much for your time and effort.

I have contacted the top one, On the hunt fro the bottom one.

Thanks

Just out of curiosity, you wouldn’t have the original photo you save by any chance.

The met data might help search.

I didn’t save a copy of the original - I used the image linking tool, which makes a copy of the original onto Gawker’s servers. I just saved a copy of that locally to look at the metadata on it, but there isn’t much. Created with “ACD Systems Digital Imaging”, dimensions, bit depth, EXIF version 0220, and that’s about it. A copy of the original file is what you see when you expand the image, but I don’t think you’ll find any more than I did.
