Lea Francis - taken from outside the family home, 1966. Note the RM Riley in the background, heading towards town.

The Total garage/petrol station, was, many years earlier, where dad met mum for the first time. He was assisting on the garage forecourt when she appeared needing the tyres pumped up on her bike.

Later, this was the base for 'Roys Motors', who bought two ratty old double deckers for our school run. Roy and his lovely wife lived in the bungalow, before selling up and moving to South Africa. It then changed to Speeds, Volvo dealers, before the whole lot was demolished for flats.

Leyland (could be filed as British Leyland of course). One of many prototypes at Gaydon.

I'll probably be at C & C and with a 'For Sale' sign in the Cooper S. 2002 with just 41,000kms on the clock, NZ new, manufactured to order, with black leather upholstery. Need to slim down the collection. Marcos will be next, but after a bit of TLC has been applied - and a WoF.

I am in Chatswood, so easy for you to collect.

I am in Chatswood too !
ERC is relieved, or has been relieved of the Six Boxes of the NZCC mags - yesterday. They now live in Hillcrest in my Late Uncle's workshop
Spent a couple of hours today sorting through them - found a few with Austin Healey articles as well as Triumph's.
So some stories to come.

Thanks Ray,
If anyone is chasing Back issues - happy to part with most of the ones 1993-2014 for the cost of the postage.
Usually around $5.00 for an envelope that will take several.

Cheers Guys,

PS for those who were at Caffeine and Classics last Sunday - there was a Swallow Doretti with UK style number plates.
I note that the same car features in one of the NZ CC Magazines from around 2006.
Not the White one in ERC's post #3383 but a Red one - took a couple of photo's - now to download.
These things take time !
