The rod operated rear brakes suggest a late Ruby, 1937+. The chassis numbers for late Rubies, are stamped onto an aluminium plate riveted to the chassis just under the stater motor. If the aluminium plate is missing, but the two plate attachment holes are still in the chassis, the chances of determining the chassis number will be difficult. All Austin Sevens prior to the MkII Ruby, have the chassis number stamped onto the left hand side chassis frame just behind the rear engine mounting bolt. Hope this of help. John
