With this low roof it can only be the Humber Sceptre. |

As far as I know the Humber Sceptre Series 1 and Super Minx Series 1 had the same roof-line. I must admit the picture looks rather strange - very low. ![[Image: fs1963humbersceptremarkgj2.2141.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/0is151/fs1963humbersceptremarkgj2.2141.jpg) ![[Image: fssuperminx10ft3.th.jpg]](http://img151.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fssuperminx10ft3.jpg "http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/9663/fssuperminx10ft3.th.jpg") -- Last edit: 2007-02-26 13:36:11 |

Roof-line of the Humber was more sloping down and a bit lower: heighth of the Humber was 145 cm, of the Hillman 148 cm, so a difference of about an inch. Roof of Singer and Hillman were equal. In the late sixties my parents had a second hand Hillman Super Minx and our neighbours a Humber Sceptre (and a Sunbeam Rapier as second car). So it was quite easy to see the difference... |
