dsl ◊ 2024-05-25 23:32	1949-51 Tickford 7-seater estate, only 641 made with over 600 going for export and about 20 known survivors today. The prototype - with a unique split windscreen - had an intricate livery of Sage Green with cream window frames and cabin panel insets, leading to a very small initial batch in Sage Green with Ivory window frames, followed by a normal run in Sage Green, an option from mid-1949 of Sage Green over Bronze Green and final production in all-over Bronze Green; it received the October 1950 headlight change when the lights were mounted through the grille, but not the June 1951 larger headlights separated from a smaller inverted T-shape grille. This looks mid-1949 Sage Green over Bronze Green with lights behind grille. CAF 529 looks familiar from somewhere I can't place, but was Cornwall March-July 36 so probably irrelevant.
