surviving hutchinson cabriolets

[tommy8252]

A few may have seen my post earlier on facebook but thought I'd share it here for those of you interested and without facebook.

9 of the 10 kown remaining hutchinson cabriolets have been tracked down through Facebook. By putting them in here I'm hoping the cars locations and current owners will have a permanent record which can be updated.

So here's the current list.

Hopefully by listing this some more cars and owners may be uncovered.

Wasn't there a really tatty yellow hutchinsons convertible on ebay done time in the last year? I seem to remember the seller trying to sell it with pictures of it still half under a car cover.

Dave.

[tommy8252]

Yes he had a white one (sold on now) and a yellow one, think the yellow one is still alive, he was asking £2000 for it as a project last summer iirc. I had completely forgot about that one.

[bazzap8389]

I remember seeing a very tidy black one at pvs 2013. Not seen any pics of it since.

[tommy8252]
