B30 KM was built in 1950 (just), but only delivered in June 1951, as its first owner lived in Chirstchurch, New Zealand. Originally Belco Black with red hide, a later owner introduced Kiwi Green as a second colour. All things bright and beautiful thus. Although a colonial specification as such does not seem to exist, she has different bumpers, two lamps in lieu of a centre lamp, an oil bath air cleaner, and so forth. Additional rubber on the rear spats too. Mileage probably less than 100,000. The original interior was refreshed. The engine had coolant blockage at the rear of the block and exploded en route from France. By chance another 4.25 engine, freshly rejuvenated, was discovered and installed and now she is waiting to go again.
