1939 Singer Nine Tourer
Chassis Number: J26357
Registration Number: RN7457
A very early example of the Singer Nine Tourer.
Beneficiary of a near £4,000 engine refresh in 2021.
Finished in light blue over grey with a navy blue reupholstered interior.
Singer and MG were great rivals during the 1930s competing against each other at race circuits, trials and in showrooms alike. Vying for sales with the MG T-Series, the Singer Roadster retained what was essentially the same two-door, swept tail silhouette throughout its sixteen year history (1939-1955) albeit with stylistic tweaks along the way. The open four-seater appeared on 6th March 1939 with a lightly tuned version of the larger 1074cc overhead camshaft engine already seen in the Bantam Nine along with its three-speed gearbox.
This is a very early example of the model which has benefited from almost £4,000 expenditure on an engine overhaul by M J Motor Services of Leominster which included re-white metalling in 2021. The carburettor was also refreshed using an SU overhaul kit. Invoices for the work accompany the car. Finished in light blue over grey with a navy blue interior reupholstered towards the end of 2023, RN 7457 is offered with aforementioned invoices and a current Swansea V5C.
This little car has surprisingly good performance running well in modern traffic. The three speed gear box is easy to use & the car pulls stronlgly in all gears. The engine has covered just a few hundered miles since its rebuild so is still inthe process of being run in.
Despite its slightly diminutive suze, the car affords seating for 4 people. The vinyl hood & frame stows cleverly behind the rear seats & is easily erected should the weather turn inclement. There is a useful 12V cigarette lighter adaptor mounted below the dash affording power for Sat Nav/cell phone charger etc.
All in all this is a well presented little car in excellent condition that benefits from the engine having been freshly rebuilt. It has a jaunty appearance & elicits smiles from all who see it.
