[Motu]

Ex Motorcorp parts manager - when he left after Honda took over he took most of their old BMC stock. He started a parts and repair busness at his families garden centre on the Scenic Drive. He was the man for any BMC parts,but later got into Mercedes too. The council made him move all his wrecks out...it was a storm in a tea cup some years ago.

[Ixion]

He was a good dude. Fell into the council mincing machine . There was a film about it a couple of years ago. Council took all the car bits away, turned out the people he had staying there, then took him to the cleaners big time. Violation of this rule and that rule, regulations blah to blahblah, failure to be a good compliant sheep, the usual stuff. Bastards.

Nothing left there now, but back in the day he had just about everything.

I was a Westy when he ran for council...to fight them from the inside - he got my vote. Of course they'd never let anyone with grease under their fingernails on the council - that guy with concrete under his fingernails was enough of a problem.

Man,he was hard case...I'd ring him up -

"Yeah?''

'That you Graham?'

''Yeah''

'I'm looking for a square steering wheel for an Allegro...'

''Yeah''

.................................................. ........................

'So,you've got one then?'

''Yeah''

'Great,can you send it out to me?'

''Yeah''

.................................................. .................................

'Uh,you know who I am?'

''Yeah''

Of course the parts would come. The Yeahs were usually shouted down the phone...he just wasn't interested in talking.

Fuck yeah I want one, my mrs saw the movie for the first time on the weekend.

Got my coupling on my landcrab

I thought it certainly looked based on that rear end treatment - although no factory Mk3 utes were made.

Definately a home made tray - flat sheet straight up from the swage line on the original wing

Prefer this one myself...

Looks like it has a morris traveler up its ass.

[Edbear]

Now if it was a genuine 1800 ute, that would make a great carrier!
