Hello, my name's Mark and I live in Yorkshire, what used to be called the North Riding, where I work as an engineer. I've owned my '46 Rover ten for about 25 years now and I'm still learning to drive it  I used to have a Series 2 Morris Oxford as a daily car but I sold it after 16 happy years. I also used to own a 1933 B.S.A. thre-wheeler, possibly the worse thing I ever bought. I eventually got rid of it by getting ******* *. ***** (a well known dealer) to sell it for me. Big mistake, they are rogues and liars.
I also put ships in bottles and do a bit of blacksmithing which is why the mascot on the radiator cap is an anvil. It's from an early Vulcan.
The pass light fell off one day which is why there is an empty bracket at the front.

Welcome from me also!
As far as adding photos go, there are some instructions somewhere on the forum.
Looking forward to seeing / hearing more about your cars! |

Welcome Mark! 
Alway nice to see an India Tyres advert - my father was a Department Manager at Inchinnan in the 1960's / 70's, many a happy Sunday morning I spent there watching all the huge machines making tyres.
I still remember the smell of hot rubber - and I mean tyres before somebody yanks my chain!  |
