Jowett 10hp 1937-1940
The Ten gets the '37 treatment though grille slightly different from an 8's.
Other changes are the single carburettor and the free wheel. Spare wheels always indoors, but other year-by-year changes as for 8 HP, including 1940's unusual bonnet-louvre pattern. Vans (1938 on) have un-Jowett-like rectangular grilles.
Flat-four with alloy heads and twin carburettors, rear springs underslung, automatic clutch (but no synchromesh) to four-speed 'box. Early fastback Jupiters and Jasons had slant radiators which didn't help servicing, so more vertical rad and 7 HP saloon body on Plover (March onwards) with steel-spoke instead of wire wheels. A few older-type saloons (Peregrine) also with this later footwear.
