When the film was shot, the car had already been fully restored so the chassis of another car which Eric was restoring at the time, a rare 1916 Perry, was used to replicate the Morris during restoration. edit: except that it appears Wikipedia entry is wrong and it cannot be the smaller Perry 2-cylinder but another Morris 'Bullnose' chassis and only the 1914 Perry's body was used. -- Last edit: 2015-10-19 13:52:50
