The F-registration with preceeding numbers was an Essex issue from Feb 1957 to Apr 1958, so that is almost certainly the car's original number. _________________ in the garage: 1938 Talbot Ten Airline

Essex was the last mainland county to continue allocating non suffix registration numbers right up to the middle of 1965 when the then government decreed that suffix numbers became compulsory.
The Scilly Isles continued with *CY non suffix numbers until CY was allocated to Swansea. _________________ Starting Handle Expert
