Nippy (AEB) was steel-bodied version of 65, released Jan 34; same date for EK Sports and AEK Speedy (round-topped split screen). So 1933 65 Sports [EB] matches the dates if they're precise, but I'm not brave enough to say exact match for car as seen.

Also hers has lower, smaller headlamps that might actually have black paint on them. -- Last edit: 2022-02-09 12:38:37
