E93A Prefect post war, small painted boot lid hinges, no overriders. E493A Prefect, small painted boot lid hinges, overriders. Some doubt in my mind about standard/deluxe variants. I’d say it’s a post war E93A Prefect, about 80% certainty. -- Last edit: 2021-07-12 23:38:08

There also appears to be a small oval badge on the spare wheel cover which disappears when the “Prefect” badge is there. I think it might be “10”. -- Last edit: 2021-07-13 13:20:27
