This 10hp has 2 + 1 tourer coachwork by Martin and King, an Australian coachbuilder. It was originally supplied to agents Pound Motors of Melbourne and used in competition work. In 1940 it was bought by Mr Marshall who kept it until his death. It was bought in 2007 by Les Blakers who restored the car to its present condition. Before Les purchased it, it seems not to have been used for many years.

There are five known 10hp survivors in Australia, all with local bodies.

The chassis number is 10/612 and engine number OC542.
