When I first got my 1949 roadster, I though it was a " 4A". But I later learned that the rounded tops of the windscreen, the knurled windscreen knobs, and the air vents on the sides of the scuttle were indications of a
"9" My headlights are 7 inch, not 8 inch (but could be replacements)
Last night I dug up my identifying numbers:
chassis number: A1648S
body number: A1657S
This seems to fit into the sequence for the 4A, namely A1579S to A2600S.
So should I call it a 9 or a 4A (I call it a lot of other names on occassion, but none repeatable here

Gene,
My car too has a bit of an "identity" crisis. An A Series with a 10 engine and a 4 speed gearbox...
I go with what the car was originally... an A Series. Then I can get into the rest of its history.

identify
Talking about identity, mine is still not sure of it's own, is it a Singer , is it a MG, so we called it FRANKENS TAINLESS SINGER. LOL!!! Does it really matter, as long as you love it. I love them all.
