Does anyone know the name of the buyer and their location of this Humber? I need to contact them.
Thanks, Jim Price |

Looks like a 41 to me. The air intake louvers indicate it is past the 5000 or 6000 production number. I don't know the exact cutoff, but I know the louvers came in somewhere between 5000 and 10,000.

Also has a Humber!
The seller with the F-8 cab 11 also has a Humber on Ebay. It is interesting that vehicles like this are still turning up 60 years later!

The louvres may be a bit of a red herring as the rest of the truck looks Cab 11. I've emailed the seller for additional info, such as the build date on the data plates. This might be an early F8 cab 11. Derek.

It's definitely a cab 11 and the louvres indicate a build date of mid 1940 or later. The attached picture shows what the prototypes looked like in 1939.

The seller is "forthenryantiques"
I think we have discussed this seller, their identity and the quality of what they sell in past on this forum in the context of a C8A HUP/HUW/ZL variant. My memory is that opinions varied widely from "wonderful" to "looks good from far but is far from good".
