Hello Ollie, Whilst browsing photos on the internet I found this photo of your car at VSCC Prescott 2011.

I am a little confused. November last Chris Garner noted regarding the Gaydon surviving Austin Seven records -

For clarity to other Forum members:
March - June '29 77535 to 97332 inclusive.
April - Oct '30 107228 to 117126 inclusive
Jan to June '31 127026 to 136924 inclusive

I have a note from Phil Baildon regarding a local Austin Seven with missing chassis number which quotes from the surving records -

CAR no A9 5912, CHASSIS 93245, ENGINE 91969, Built 25.7.29 Date advised 27.7.29

which is after June 1929 - and only to chassis number 93245.

Also I think there is a misunderestanding among some UK experts that all chassis were stamped with their number by the factory. We have ample examples over a number of years to prove that unstamped chassis exist - as noted elsewhere many may have been provided with a painted number but these have usually been lost (painted out) in the intervening 86 years.
My 1929 fabric saloon engine number M 83747 seems to have no number stamped in any of the various locations, and as only the third owner there is no suggestion of it being removed. Unfortunately all local early registrations only required the engine number.

Henry,

That is more like it-

March - June '29 77535 to 97332 inclusive.

should read

March– June ‘29 - A8 series - c 77,535 – 87,433
June – Dec. ‘29 -- A9 series - 87,434 – 97,332

Thank you.
