Morning all,

This vintage, solid-tyred, Trojan has an interesting story to tell (exported to Southern Rhodesia in the 1930s, returning home recently).

Perfect for VSCC "light car" events?

I only remember seeing the Trojan Brooke Bond Tea red vans. Didn't know they made cars.

I recall reading an article about an RAF chap using one for Hill climbs just after the war.

A bloke in welshpool used to run one of these, but on Blow up tyres in the early 1990's.

He apparently used to simply park it on the side of the road where he lived. This was on a hill

One year it had stopped coming to shows, but we saw the bloke. Some vandals had taken the brake off and let it run down the hill, destroying it!
