barrett Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I'm too old to get stressed out about people ruining old cars with half-arsed modifications like I used to (certain exceptions apply of course), but I definitely get properly wound up about people making a start on their half-arsed mods and then selling of the project halfway through because they CBA finishing it off. That Minor is an excellent example - it looked like it was pretty much ready to go in the first pic, and a really late Traveller in that proper '70s colour would make such a nice little car to run around in. Now it is literally just a pile of scrap. I suppose if you have a rotten Traveller you could transfer all the rear bodywork over to this one, but then you'd have to paint it and that would destroy the lovely patina... these people are just thick and really shouldn't be allowed to own old cars.

Yup I have not seen a late Minor in that BL colour for ages -I think it is 1970' s Harvest Gold. On a purely practical basis I have always found estates more useful than pick-ups for general use - so creating a pick-up is not a particularly useful move IMHO.

Sorry for being a pedant but it's Limeflower (same as my mk3 ado16); as far as I know Harvest gold never quite made it onto a Minor. I'd love a limeflower or aqua traveller but fear that ship has long since sailed. Amishtat, Braddon81 and lesapandre 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
