Not been on for awhile as have been dealing with my mothers estate and one of my sons has bought a flat which needs decorating etc!
Came across some more photos which include these of MP 5634 taken around the early 70s. My parents house is in the Solihull, West Midlands area, so Midlands Austin 7 Club patch.
I seem to remember it was someone passing by who had a problem (looks like he's been rallying!) and Dad said he could leave it in the garage for awhile. Anyone recognise it or still own it?

As regards DF 2993 (see first page) I've decided that I've left it too late in life to do what's necessary to get it back on the road and I don't have the room to do the work. I only have a single garage and that is taken up with a number of motorbikes whilst I can still ride them!
So it is with some sadness that I've decided to sell it on behalf of the family. As you can see it's a Chummy, from 1927, and will require quite a bit of work. Its been off the road for many years but has been kept in a dry garage. I'll provide more information once I've had a good look at it. I'm being realistic about the price but was thinking £6k. - I know info. is sketchy at the moment but does that sound about right?
