The short chassis RM saloon continued well in to 1932, and the four seat tourer and boat-tail two seater continued on the short chassis until September 1932. As far as I am aware, there was no long chassis tourer (2-seater or 4-seater) produced with scuttle tank or three-speed gearbox. I doubt if the French authorities would be aware of such details, but one never knows...
Mike. I think youve got some duff 'gen'. Ive seen at least two long wheelbase 4 seat tourers with scuttle tanks and 3 speed box. They also had vertical seams at each side on the back. I dont think it would be hard to find an example for you if you dont believe me. I had assumed these to be type AH?. The short version the AG?
The later cars, 4 speed. rear tanks were AJ?. Yes this car seems to have one of these bodys. But a car fitted with a body built in the same year as the chassis, both built in the same factory by the same maker? A problem? Id be very surprised.
