Summary
Blue painted steel body panel forming part the bonnet of an Austin 12 car. Each side has a ventilation flap and there are numerous fixing holes. The incomplete items are enough to identify the car as a four cylinder, 12 horsepower Austin, and the unusual door shape indicates that the car was a convertible, probably an Austin 12/4 coupe model of circa 1928.
