The one driving towards the camera looks a little too wide to be an Austin7.
My dad had one - reg no HG114 - He ran it on paraffin during the petrol rationing
Austin 7 box saloons

Tee hee ... you're back-handed compliments are pure class,Retlaw..

Did ask earlier about Spring Mill .. anyone got any drawings/photos of that? Seemed to be the heart of the town at one time, but can't find much about it.
