I am still trying to make sense if the bits of evidence I have regarding
the sequence Crossover body Mk1 cars. I have Tiger B9473202 with JAL 562772.
I have heard from the owner of B9473187 that his car like mine has square
door corners and both cars were finished by Jensen on April Fools Day 1965.
I have also heard from the owner of B9473317 (presumably built after April
1. 1965) that his car has round door corners. A wise person on the list has
reminded me that Jensen received the bodies a already painted from British
Pressed Steel and that the JAL number is perhaps a better indicator of the
sequence of body production. So, does this explain the apparent
flip-flopping of body features, or is it more likely explainable by cars getting
pulled from the line for repair and thus delaying VIN assignment?
Thanks!
Zach
