The front and rear wings on a Type "65" were always steel as was the bonnet. The rest of the body should be aluminum. Our '33 is like this. The "65" doesn't have the parking lights on top of the front wings.
Since I'm here, I'm in the market for an early sports crank case with the 'pockets' for the 1.5" crank and the solid mounted feet.... Ours was long gone before Dad bought the car 45 years ago. I know I can grind out the required clearance on a standard crank case, but I thought I'd just throw a line into the water where "65" / Nippy affecianado's are gathered....
