I had a couple of AG's 149497 AG 1357 and 150346 (AG no not known) This latter was sold on quickly to "the trade" , but 1357 was much travelled (Hong Kong to USA and reimported by me. It was quite modified with hydraulic brakes sporting head carb & manifold and gearbox) but it was an interesting car to restore. See an article in the Magazine & quite a lot on here under "CHITTI" I believe the AG were a "run out " model perhaps using left over short chassis and a made up (Cobbled together?) steel body made from old Alloy Chummy tooling possibly. No one seems to know how many were made and the production dates. Yours seems to be around June 1931, mine both seemed to be around Spring/early Summer 1932!]
The AG does not feature in "The Original Austin Seven" book
Good luck with the project...what a find!
