Number Two?...

Could this 1936 Singer Le Mans be the second of three cars originally imported new into Canada?

Taken somewhere around Toronto, Ontario, Canada, in the 1950's, it shows proud owner Jack Luck at the wheel. Jack, a designer by trade, was an early member of the Singer Owner's Car Club as formed by Keith McDowall and which has grown into the current UK Singer Owner's Club. Jack designed the original club badge, another Canadian connection.

It's interesting to note the similar modifications made on Baby Blue, my Singer, and Jack's car back in the '50's, including bumper bars and a conversion to Lucas 700 series headlamps.
