This looks like very rare first year only version Oct 52 to Sept 53. I don't think it has front indicators which were added for the Sept 53 slight facelift which also changed the grille from flat top to a pointed and higher top with chrome outline inside the aperture but still body colour surround (and doubled round rear lights). Pictures here show this initial grille and absence of front indicators. Not sure how many were made pre-facelift, but if I'm understanding Glass's info on chassis numbers correctly only 164 Austin Princesses across the range of three model [DM4, DS3, and DM3] were made Oct 52 to Sept 53 (chassis 10141 to 10314). |
