date of first production coupled brakes?
#1
I've got notes suggesting a coupe chassis with 4 wheel coupled brakes went to Longbridge Experimental dept (and stayed there for a year before going to sales) - chassis 108474.

Wyatt also lists prototype B1-301 as first short chassis new body with 4 coupled brakes - that equates to around 107400. And that the first saloons came in around 112000.

We know that developmental TT cars (1929, so presumably c. 80-100,000-ish chassis) had coupled brakes but what actual evidence is there, photographic or otherwise, for cars earlier than 112000? Were the first production EA Sports still uncoupled, or indeed is there proof that they were not?
