Hi there

Came across this. Thought it might be of interest:-

Shame I have not got a bigger garage!

All the best.

Fascinating haul though, thanks for sharing.

Good to see, but if they are to be restored, it'll be by somebody a lot better than me! Do British restorers start with something that rusty and corroded?
Good luck!

I'd of had a bid on the a35 if it hadn't been withdrawn Sad

I think the rest is only any good for parts.

Frustratingly, for some reason we cannot open the pdf?? What sort of vehicles are there?

Look for Pughs auctioneers in Ledbury and you can see the catalogue from there.

They could not have rusted more if they'd been stored in the open.Very sad waste of what were at one time probably good cars.

Finally managed to open the pdf, what rust! Would have survived better outside under a tarp.

Are these cars all victims of the "I'm going to do them up one day" philosophy ?.
