Sandie ◊ 2011-08-21 20:47	4/4 was definitely my first thought too.

dsl ◊ 2011-08-22 23:19	I think late 50s/early 60s radiator. Has late 60s onwards front indicators, but not sure they look correct - later update??

The fold-down windshield was discontinued by the factory in 1957. (There is a popular after-market adapter to convert solid windshield to fold-down, but the after-market product looks different from the original product in this picture.) This car is a Plus 4 (Triumph engine) rather than a 4/4 (Ford engine: During the 1950s the 4/4 was only available as a 2-seater, so this 4-seater must be a Plus 4. Also, during the Fifties the 4/4s did not have the two rows of louvres on top of the bonnet, which this car does.
