Check the rear subframe. They had a habit of rusting. I have good memories of the MG version, Torquay and a girlfriend, maybe why I have back problems now. Cool

Great find.

http://archive.heritage-motor-centre.co.uk/heritage_certificates_taxexempt.html gives you a guide on if your Wolseley is Historic tax or not. W-A4S5 44429-M or prior?
