1938 SS Cars SS 100 Roadster

  • Chassis Number: 39039
  • Engine Number: M536E
  • Body Number: 4913
  • Registration Number: HMX 87
This SS 100 is chassis number 39039. It was delivered new to Harold C. Goozee, of London, on March 11th of 1938. it was given registration HMX 87, a Middlesex issue that began that month. It is the only SS 100 to be painted Snow Shadow Blue. The car competed in the Royal Automobile Club Scottish rally that spring, and again in 1939, with Goozee himself driving. He also raced in rallies at Bournemouth, Buxton, and Scarborough. He raced at Brooklands and Donington, where he was clocked at 110 mph.

After World War II came to a close, Goozee resumed competition. During 1949 and 1950, he raced at Silverstone and Blackpool, and he also competed in Prescott hill climbs. In 1959, the car was sold to G. and J. Smith, of Herefordshire. In 1993, the car was imported to the United States where it was given a full restoration by Terry Larson of Mesa, Arizona. Since restoration, the car has been used regularly.

The car has a four-speed overdrive gearbox from an XK140, installed in the mid-1950s. Turn signals have been installed in the original lighting fixtures. There is also a hidden master switch that disconnects all electrical circuits when the car is not in use.
