This car model was unique. It was commissioned in 1949 from the Belgian | ||
coachbuilder Vesters and Neirinck of Brussels by Mr Gillet of the motorcycle | ||
manufacturer Gillet-Herstal. Originally founded in 1920 Vesters and Neirinck | ||
bodied high-quality makes including Minerva, Rolls-Royce and Bentley. After the | ||
Second World War the firm bodied a couple of Delages, a Delahaye and this Austin | ||
Sheerline before concentrating on commercial vehicles. The body resembles the | ||
work of the French coachbuilder Saoutchik. The car was partly restored and has | ||
recently been auctioned in Belgium. |
