What great shots Ian - Thank you. Would suggest it's an early 1924 rather than 1923, as the front axle seems (to my eyesight) to have the bossed provision for shockers, but none there. These axles were available in early '24 and whether you had to pay extra for shockers at the time I don't know. Maybe they were undecided if really necessary, as I have photos of several cars (including one of Waite competing in a trial with a Factory chummy) with these axles, but no dampers fitted. Re the Script badge, I thought that only the factory-owned cars had these fitted, not every car, so pleased to find I was wrong. The car in your photos has the second type of crankhandle, which also would make it not 1923. Hope this helps. Cheers, Bill in Oz
