Harley, Your windshield frame should be chrome, with rustless steel joint clips. The interior surface of the chrome was painted black, to prevent sun glare. Yours is the early version having the joints midway in the frame. As you are in England, how is it that you have a left hand drive? And the right hand hood trim appears damaged as would be expected on the left side due to the hood prop design. I would have thought the picture reversed, except for the interior picture. Your headlights have aftermarket frames to use sealed beam bulbs. Very straight looking car! The 24 stud was introduced alongside the 21 stud on job 1, but the 21 stud was not produced in sufficient quantity to complete the 1938 production year. Supplies would have been depleted on different dates at the various assembly plants.
