TA Notchback #10

Note: Although #10 was listed in an elder SAAC registry as one of the 2 cars delivered to Dockery Ford (and Malcolm Starr mentions 2 cars being delivered to them - see 1967 #11) today it seems to have become accepted that this is the John McComb car, today owned by Gary Underwood (SAAC registrar).
