This extremely rare Humber Super Snipe estate was, we believe, originally owned by Sir Robert Black Bt. who, when purchasing the vehicle, requested that the original 2.6 litre engine that was fitted to the Series I cars be replaced by the more powerful 3.0 litre six cylinder engine.
The present owner informs us that this interesting car is in excellent condition throughout and feels that it would be ideally suited to the classic racer who would like something special to use as a tow vehicle for his race car and just by way of interest we are also informed that the car is eligible for the paddock at Goodwood.
It has been featured in three magazines and a photograph of the car appears in the book 'Humber, An Illustrated History' by Tony Freeman. The magazines are included with the sale of the car as well as various letters from previous owners, a wonderful colour sales catalogue, the original logbook and MOT certificates confirming the mileage of 76987 as genuine.
A rare and wonderful piece of British motor heritage.
