Vince. I have 1930 standard roadster with engine CA53781, body number 7F93 and unknown chassis number.
It has 28 style curved bumpers, oval speedo, Robertson head screws and 7 tooth steering.
My wife has 31 Tudor ( registration papers say 1932) with engine number CA 63283, early style steering column support - not dash mounted- and non-indented firewall. Both are RHD of course
Hope this helps
EDIT. I see the Tudor engine on the reg. Papers is CAI 6087. So the engine must have been changed years ago. The roadster engine seems too early for the car too. I guess many have been changed like this. Probably not much help to you after all!!
