Snows Garage High Street, Merthyr Tydfil in the 1950’s. I wonder if the car still exists?

The Registration number looks to be either OD 7973 or DD 7973, and if so neither number is recorded on the data base.

A lovely picture!
If the reg is OD 7977 (it's almost certainly that) it is J4412. The first owner, according to the Factory records was a resident of Beaworthy, Devon, but alas we have no owner info ever since then. The car was originally red and had red trim. (This pic is already on our database record for the car.)

I think that the number looks like 7973 and the letters look as though they could be CD

Gotta add my two p worth. I do not think the numbers are 7973 but rather 7977. Looking closely the bit that makes the 4th digit look like a 3 is actually a fastener from the taillight.

The letters could even be BD.

Hi Tom

You could be right - OD7977 is J4412 which appears live and well and in Canada.
