In the "yellow" photo the car has no scuttle vent yet in the magazine article they can be clearly seen... curiouser & curiouser.

By looking at the 2 photos I would say the yellow one has more of a curve on the bottom of the windscreen.

I'm still not convinced that the bulkhead is from an RP saloon - the horizontal swage line is wrong, irrespective of which windscreen is used, and the gap between the scuttle vent and the door opening is too narrow. LWB RN or perhaps the remnants of a tourer? rear wings are not from a saloon.
Be interesting to see if the body & chassis numbers are still available.

From previous discussions with Dale and seeing his photos it is the same A7 but had not spotted the windscreen change. If you zoom into the second photo in this thread there looks like a right angle to the bottom corners of the windscreen aperture. One to check the next time I see it or Dale.
