Looks like a very sound truck. I didn't know about the Plymouth / Dodge relationship until you mentioned it. I'd almost be tempted to take it back to the original blue but I realise it would be a mammoth task and probably impossible just to remove the light blue coat. The engine certainly sounds very sweet and the spot lamp is great. I see that turning on the head lamps switches off the side lamps.

I agree it would be a shame if those finds were not saved. The Graham Bros. was a sleeping beauty; was it not? I think the Morris van would also be a worthwhile restoration and possibly even a profitable one.
It looks very much like someone had tried to bite off more than they could chew.
Fast forward....are they still there ? |

It'd be interesting to know, I can't quite remember where they were.

I know that feeling. Going back a good 15-20 years ago I was in France, somewhere west of Orleans, when I passed a compound surrounded by high wire fencing. Within that compound was dozens of 2CV Fourgonnettes (vans) mostly ex-poste de France. I have never been able to locate it since. Even spending hours looking on Google Earth and Street View has come to nowt.
