This international rule only became effective from the very early 1980,s. Prior to the early 1980,s there were no rules stipulating an erratum, only this :

 

Quote :

 

h) Recognition forms : all cars recognized by the FIA shall be the subject of a descriptive form called recognition form on which shall be entered all data enabling identification of the said model.

To this effect only the standard recognition forms and standard additional form for " normal evolution of the type " and " variant approved by the FIA shall be used by all ACNs. Such additional forms shall be accepted only if at least 50% of the required minimum number of cars have been sold.

I've been meaning to watch the series again but I'm almost certain that at some stage someone mentioned that Ted's Kingswood was a V8?

 

I know they said he bought it new in 1971, which means it could be either a HG or a HQ, and I don't think they ever actually showed the car, but I always assumed it was a 253 auto HQ Kingswood sedan for some reason?

 

With personalised plates "TB007" if I remember correctly.

Dunno! For some reason I always thought it was a latter model . Just Peabued the boot.
