The second Bob Jones Teal Type 43 seems to have been in the ownership of Wimbledon Tennis Ladies’ Champion Maria Bueno and her friend Leslie, shown below:
VX18117
The photos below show a Teal Type 43 being built by Bob Jones and Tony Melia, the louvres for the Type 43 being punched by Tony Melia (the same machine was used for all our Teal bonnet louvres), and a Type 43 shell on the Teal Stand at a car show – the lovely curved bodywork, attractive mudguards and small nearside door are particularly noticeable in this last photo.
POSTSCRIPT: A third Teal Type 43 has recently been created (2012) for owner Aaldert Postma by engineer Mike Hall to a somewhat different but also most elegant design. This Teal has now been painted in The Netherlands and is being refitted with lights, brightwork, etc, and will figure in it’s own right as Teal of the Week in the near future.***
