Happy New Year.

in my home state of Victoria Australia, during the 1930's the VIN of a car was the engine number
In chasing up information on some L types I seem to see odd variations in the engine numbers.
For my N type, the engine is 556A (std pistons) 134N (early single breather N type).

The L types typically have the engine number XXX A then the 97 (L type K series block) but the letter can be L, G, C or 0

e.g. L2069.... Guarantee plate says 809AL, but the engine is stamped 809 A 97 0

This is inconsistent with the J, P and K types I've seen.

Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

regards,

Andrew

Hi Andrew
Interesting observations and I don't know any answers. My L types
have eng stamped 696 AL 97C and the plate is 696AL, the tourer has engine stamped 990AL 97C and the plate is 990 AL. My spare block is stamped KC817 so that gives you another mystery.
I'll be interested in learning about your findings.

and Happy New Year from Sweden

Sven
