FGT 765 = late 1938. Looks as if narrower rear track than front.

Not a "Magnificent". A 1938 New Minx as I said above. Different grille and external access to the boot, via an opening lid not seen on the earlier model.

I've double checked and I'm in error, sorry. It is a "Magnificent", but post the July 1937 facelift. The Phase 1 was monocoque but under virtually identical sheet metal, but with a boot bustle, like a sort of mini Super Snipe.

The Phase 1 was a 1939 development.
