Karrier Bantam.
More information on this Karrier:
This great little Karrier lorry was near the castle walls in Conway North Wales. This photo dates to 1992 and shows the little truck disappearing into the garden of this house. I can't remember whether the owner told me any history of this truck. I did notice a few years later that it had disappeared although the removed van body was still in the garden.
This section of oldclassiccar is full of photographs showing a mix of unrestored, derelict, abandoned, and scrapped old cars. Some cars are with enthusiasts awaiting restoration, others are dumped or seen in breakers yards. I don't have any more information on the classic Karrier above, so all news regarding what happened to it, or the rescue of this particular Bantam would be much appreciated.
All the photos, including this picture of an old Karrier Bantam, are shown as a reminder of how old cars go to look once past their first flush of youth. Some of the scrapyards in this archive no longer exist, others perhaps survive but don't allow you to walk around them. And those that you can still get in probably don't have many classics in them any more. For more photos like this one of the Bantam, and similar old Karriers, please visit the main scrapyard & scrap cars image page.
