Rutherford Head

[johnbuckley]

I know this is a Model A engine but we need the help of the T- boys!
Can anyone provide evidence that cylinder heads by Slim Rutherford (see pics) were produced pre 1931 (or pre any date for that matter!) perhaps a contemporary advert anywhere? or invoices ? or history?. Such dating evidence would re-inforce eligibily criteria required by our national Vintage Sports Car Club

I hope that these larger pictures make it easier for folks, so that they can provide more details for you about this Head for you.
