My father in the 1940s and 50s would have been very surprised to learn he drove an RP. What equally intrigues me is the term box. It seems to fit the RN/RP proportions and for 1934 separates from the Ruby. But also applied to earlier saloons. Does anyone know when the jargon crept in? And was it always applied to swb saloons?
(just post war early Sevens were so common my father said service station attendants regularly went to the scuttle for the tank. Remember there was a time when it was not diy.)
