10hp Stanley, ex-Henry Slatter?

A huge cache of Steam Car Developments & Steam Aviation now on eBay includes the April 1935 number -

In it is an advert by Henry Slatter for a 10hp Stanley, with "two-seater body, rounded tail and special bonnet".
For the Stanley Register, I'm always trying to link information about long-ago owners to current cars. The only English-bodied 2-seaters I've seen pictures of are the E. G. Kendrew car and the Bill Hunter car, and they both seem to have a standard Stanley bonnet.
Does anyone know which car was owned in '35 by Henry Slatter?

P.S. The price was £20, less if you didn't want the boiler.
P.P.S. There's also a great 1934 picture of what is presumably Richard Granger's tourer in

Hi Kelly,
There are two other English bodied Stanley's which I know of and they are Richard Granger's and Peter Harper's 10HPs. Richard Granger's was originally a two-seater which was converted to a four seater in 1948. Could this have had the rounded tail and special bonnet orginally and was converted to standard spec in 1948? Old Timer.
