This is old friend 894 FPC. However, I didn't know where to enter "Series II" as can be seen on these pages: /v137788.html /v544933.html /v143295.html Additionally, I noticed some Series III Wolseleys have "Series III" entered as a chassis, unlike the Series II Wolseleys mentioned above: /v1498910.html and my resultant "clone" /v1808867.html I'm slightly confused as to what is the correct approach. |

I can’t help, I’ve looked at them and can’t see how 1, 2 and 3 in the “Mk” panel changes to Roman. |

Welcome to the Wonderful World of Wolseley Naming. It takes several years of deep study in an isolated mountain retreat before you can hope to master it. And I probably haven't mastered it yet, but can explain your queries .... For the 6/90s, enter 1,2 or 3 in the "Mk" field and our wonderful software pixies automatically convert it to Series I, II or III. "Easy peasy, lemon squeezy" as the old Fairy washing-up liquid ads used to say. Similar conversions work for lots of other things. The [Series III] chassis references are a different kettle of fish, as my mum used to say. They apply to pre-WW2 Wolseley ranges and their unchanged resumption after WW2 for a few years in Series III form. Wolseley (and their Morris clones) launched phases across all their models at the same time which were known as Series I, II & III. So to take the examples you picked up, they are Wolseley Series IIIs, not specifically 14/60 Series IIIs. Maybe looking at this list of all the [Series III] entries across the individual models makes it clearer. Similar can be generated for [Series I] and [Series II] if needed but hopefully that is enough to demonstrate the system. And as said it applies to Morrises as well in the same way. |
