Doesn't look metal, look at the seam strips. Although rust does seem to appear under the headlight :lol: Bonnet doesn;t look metal either, all joins together differently.

this is a link to a picture of a mini cord, notice it doesnt have the drip rail around the front of the screen? but this one does... and the scuttle corners dont match, so i dont think its a mini cord, but a close relative, could even be a prototype cord? but it does seem to be rusting around the head light.... strange one..

I don't think it's a Cord. The front end has alot of differences, also there is rust under the headlight, and the rear valance seems to have been painted black, like you might if it was rusty.. plus it has seam strips. The moulded arches are the only bit that look Cord to me.

roofs different, and the cord doesnt have the skuttle/wing gap.... the slam panel looks different, as do the arches...
