Nice try, but this is an 18/85 (1800cc) not a Six (2200cc).

 

Have added it to http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_371878-wol ... -1971.html for you though.

Not a Wols, but thought Keef would want to see it

Spotted this on Ovalchat, Morris 2200 located in Surrey for £350. No further info in the ad sadly but pm me for the sellers number if you fancy it.

[keef]

Thanks Flat, but simmo beat you to it.

OMG

 

a Wolseley 6 with tidy front wings! I have never seen one of them - the top round the lights was a mudtrap!

I quite agree. Car generally looks in good shape, although you can't see much of sills and none of floor.

 

I suppose it could be :-

 

Lazy Days by pete_tography., on Flickr

 

or :-

 

Wolseley Six 1 by thermionic, on Flickr

 

Second one seems unlikely as I think you'd see remains of airforce sticker on front panel, but .....

[bangers & mash]

keef, ONR 98M is one of the Howarth cars I posted up last month.

Yep.

 

Is it still there?

 

Lots of people have "spotted" it since and a few have posted pics. :-

[bangers & mash]

They were both still there at the end of January when I took my pics. I haven't been back over that way since, but looking at the date the photo was taken and, location of the stickers in the windscreen on the scrapyard one, it isn't likely to be the Howarth car.

 

Was it you that invited my pics to the flickr group last week keef?

 

Bit busy this week, but if I get chance I'll have another run over and check for you.

I agree; just odd that another white one turns up; especially as it looks in such good condition.

 

ONR was taken 28/01/2011 and has a Triplex sticker in lower middle and a BMC, Tax disc and two other stickers on passenger side.

Scrapyard taken 4/02/2011 and has no Triplex sticker in lower middle and only two stickers on passenger side, as far as I can see.

 

Was it you that invited my pics to the flickr group last week keef?

 

'twas. Surprised you didn't post from your Flickr account rather than the Photobucket one, as it seems so much neater for forums.

 

Bit busy this week, but if I get chance I'll have another run over and check for you.

 

Cheers. http://www.flickr.com/people/pete_tography/ says it isn't still there, so ..............

[bangers & mash]

Probably just me doing something wrong, but I couldn't get the images to link from flickr when I did the shite farm thread.

I must admit I didn't "get it" straight off. There's two sets of code and most of the time you need the BB one. Flickr itself uses the html code.

 

I've gotten frustrated with Photobucket of late, but it still offers the best way to store a largish volume of pics. Flickt just seems to have an edge of ease of use and has less rubbish surrounding it, but maybe that will change.

[bangers & mash]

Bad news about the Haworth cars keef, they're both gone. I knocked on a couple of doors nearby to enquire about them, but didn't find anyone at home.

[keef]

Bad news about the Haworth cars keef, they're both gone.

 

Hopefully they found good homes.

 

They clearly weren't doing anything just sat where they were anyway.

[bangers & mash]

Hopefully they haven't both ended up over the bridge.

[flat4alfa]

Oh dear

 

DVLA have now deleted the ONR 98M record.

 

[flat4alfa]

...also PUW 277L

 

 

The Harworth Two are dead.

 

Can we have minutes silence.
