SNAP!
After I posted above I went searching for pics in your old posts and found your build thread. That's the same car alright. I was with Terry when he stuck that bug "Mini Inter Net International" logo in the side window. It was a an old e-mail list from the days before the web existed. (It still exists but it's down to one post every few months now.)
Used to belong to a guy named Terry. He went to Hay in convoy with me two or three times in that car, towing "Tiny" a little 4x3 trailer. Good times! He was doing up a Mini Van for his wife but I don't think he ever finished it.
That car was abaondoned in South Melbourne somewhere back in the early 90's. Terry picked it up at the council auctions and did a lot of work on it to get it on the road. Years later he kind-of lost interest in it and parked it. Bought an SS commodore or something I've lost contact with him since. I didn't know if he still had it.
I remember when Terry went to register it he had an argument with the bimbo at VicRoads about the "65 Leyland" bit. She insisted Morris didn't exist, it was a Leyland and that they didn't make that model until 1965.
Good to see that car is still alive.
