A tiny fraction of over 3000 cars on display at Newby Hall, North Yorkshire yesterday. I own the landcrab.

Thanks for posting them peppiB, how long have you had the 1800?

Rick,
Have had it just under 2 years. It is the Morris variety, which I am told is the rare one - apparently only 46 left on the road in the UK. There are many more Austins around, and most of all Wolseley - ironic as there were fewest of the Wolseleys made. It seems everyone wanted to save the posh one!

It'd be worth posting it in the Your Cars category if you get chance, like you say these big old Morrises are getting scarce!

Have every scrap of paper for this one from the original factory order, to sales invoice and every invoice for service, tyres etc, along with all tax discs MOT's etc. She has never been welded and still does not need any. The only reason she has had a respray is that her original paint was wearing so thin the original red primer was showing through.
Will sort something for the your cars category
