Humber - somehow does not look long enough to be a Super Snipe - maybe it is a Hawk?

I think it's a Hawk, but only because of the short badge on the boot-lid. In this series the Hawk and the Super Snipe used the same body.

It is Super Snipe - the wrap-round front grille moulding is just visible. Rear badge and single line side trim exactly match Oct 60 onwards S3.

This is not Series III but is the car used in film 'Legend', and is actually a Series II Super Snipe, 1959-60. The Hawk of this period had no badge to the right of the number-plate. The Series II was in fact over 3 inches shorter than the Series III, which was supposedly lengthened to accommodate air-conditioning for the US market.
