Mike Costigan said: Unfortunately I don't believe that number belongs to your car; it's a well-known number seen on several period photos, and i believe an American owner has just made up the plates to give the car some UK authenticity. Your car is a 1925 model, and that number is inappropriate for that age of car.

If this is the car I am afraid that Mike Costigan is 100% correct.
This is a 1925 model as Mike stated and the number plate looks so fresh as if it was done and painted just recently. No trace of dust on the number plate as on the bonnet.
OK 9365 belong to a Scoop Scuttle AB Tourer with a 3 numbers chassis, which once was part the Bill Harrah's car collection in Las Vegas. It was then sold in 1979 to an another museum in Phoenix Arizona.
