It is my understanding from the SA plant tour that there are two kinds of Aluminum cars. They referenced the "Polish Aircraft Factory" cars (which we know are Kirkhams). There is a true British rolled aluminum body still available for a very large premium. Those rollers are still finished in Vegas. I saw one arriving on a truck in August. It was awesome looking, but very crude, and was also very obviously going to take a lot of TLC to be finished.
