Good to see another survivor. :D


I can see the family resemblance - the back looks EXACTLY like the back of a Morris 1100!

This BMC MTU was in New Zealand for about 14 month 1963 - 1964. One of the instructors were Viv Tayler.
Is it a NZ reg number on it??
Is there a possibility that anyone can search local archives for articles during this period??

Or tip me of web links.
