I can trace names as Morris 1650 and MG Magnette 16/22, maybe also MG Magnette 1650, but no idea how solid these references are. Also in this view alone I've no idea how to separate any of the ADO9-based Siam Di Tellas or the ADO38 versions. So are there other views or is it a known car to support why entered as MG 1650??
