I agree with Jaguar Mk.IV Drop-Head Coupé , though it may be a pre-war model under SS make

Isn't it rather "Drophead" in one word?

In my book on Jag they wrote "Drop-head" like this in 2 parts... but I don't know if it is correct actually ...so you can change it if you prefer. The best would be to see a commercial factory doc of the car... but I don't have :/

I do not know for this particular car, it is just that we have three "drop head" including this one, and much more "drophead". But maybe both are correct, depending on the car.

From 1939 (SS Jaguar) and 1945 (Jaguar) brochures - "Drop-Head"

The Oxford dictionary lists it as drophead. Its a British term for a particular type of convertible. There are probably several different ways to spell it. We should just pick one and be consistent with that.

According to my Oxford dictionary it is 'drop-head', but I have seen it written in one word, too.
The word(s) are also used with different meaning: a 'drophead' is used in connection with concrete formwork, and a 'drop head halt' is a machine stop.


Somehow this comes to my mind, too: [Image: behead.gif]

The car in the clip is definitely not an SS or Jaguar DH. I am fairly sure it's an MG SA or maybe WA DH.

Note the different door mouldings and handle positions and wider rear wing in the MG. The Jaguar running board curves into the rear wing.

After looking at a number of pictures of both the MG SA and the WA, I have found only one (a MG SA) with the same door hinges. Three hinges the top flush with the body, some SAs and all WAs have three projecting hinges.
