You get to hear about wonderful things, a farm with old buildings and some old vehicles scattered about. You come across a nice 1951 Morris Oxford.
You wander about and what do you see a rather strange back end but it looks rather familiar.
Yes its a J type, surrounded by about 100 other cars and a few odd lorries.
Identity unknown, a
side valve engine fitted but round
side lamps. A brave restoration but it should be saved, we are down to the last 450/500 (very rough estimate) J's world wide and I urge somebody to take it on, if only to give it a bit of cover. If need be scrap it later, maybe twenty years later.
The back end has been cut away, maybe to make some sort of half van half pickup.
Its great that J's are still out there waiting to be rediscovered but we must not be complacent as once they are gone they are gone.
