Actually, the black plate is correct for a passenger car.? The plates used for
passenger cars from 1947-1955 used the same sort of number sequence as
commercial vehicles used in later plate series.? I've put Year of Manufacture
plates on several cars.? In one case, the 1951 plates I tried to register my
car with had the same number as a Datsun truck!? As long as that Datsun was on
the road, the number could not be used for YOM plates.

Plus right hand drive, so obviously a 100S in my opinion or a very nice
replica. I believe that the black plate used in the pictured car was for
commercial vehicles of the era and not for passenger cars, therefore not
correct.
I just saw a 100s at the Quail Lodge Concours d'Elegance in Monterey last
week but that car has the CA vanity plate I00S (not a 1 but a capital i).
This car was owned by a Stanley Bauer of CA.
Photos included for Mark, but if anyone else wants them I'll send the
directly.
