The owner of the garage owns the car, and his son now runs the garage, they have just last week started it and are making preparations to MOT and get it back on the road.

I have arranged a visit with the owners to take a look in August, and see if we can unravel some of the history.

Its never been to the States...........


let me know if they need a hand fixing it :)

Bought at Frimley Car Auctions in late 1982.

Six cars sold, this was the 3rd one to sell.

That was a receivership auction then of some sort I assume? Although Frimley is a long way from Belfast...

Well, Gary says it was something to do with a transportation company, wasnt NIC, as they had their auction in Belfast.

He was advised not to buy the first or the last car by the auctioneer, some sort of bidding tactic.
