yes Wolfie, idris is correct this one with triangular supports under the canopy is rare. With your one and the one I have your one is only the second one I have ever seen. With your colours I have another one which is a Yellow/Green variation.
I hope all is going to plan with you, take care.

Of course I know the difference between holy grail and htf.

I would say many of the cars visiting the 1959 MG1 garage in the Accessories, Kings and Major forum are htf

But to each of us the ones we are chasing, but can't find are each holy grails
