My father Terry Dowell helped rebuild it and used to take it to carnivals and it was used a wedding car on many occasions. Easter 1972 my dad and his work colleague drove little OT from lands end to John O'Groats. I spent many an hour when I was little looking though his "little OT" scrap book and reading the route that they took. The picture is a painting of the car that has pride of place at my parents. I would love to know what has happened to this car. It played a huge part of my early years. Unfortunately we lost dad in April and him doing the lands end to John O'Groats run is my favourite memory and of him xxx thank you for taking the time to read this xxx
I have checked the DVLA website and it's still about xxx
The two stickers on the windscreen in the photo taken at Heskin Hall in 2014 suggest that at some point in time the cars owner was a member of both 'The Pre-War Austin Seven Club' and the 'Vintage Sports-Car Club'. Austin Sevens owned by members of the V.S.C.C. rarely appear on the A7CA Chassis Register.
