I gather that regular body type classification by letter code is a reasonably recent common practice, usefully established by one of the older Club stalwarts. My father owned his car from 1940 and would have been surprised to learn it was an RP. But when did the term box become common useage? I always understood it to distinguish lwb from Rubys esp in 1934 when both apply, but generally applied to swb also.
