Well I found it now. It's got a later MGF engine and the guy is having a very happy day out on the track

Saw this on a drive out to the coast and saw this Leyland Tiger PS1 Crossley bus

Sorry not a very good picture but love the simplicity of the old dashboard, Speedo, Clock and two other dials what more do you need :)

And I bet this will last much longer than many of the modern electric ones (yes I am old and sad)

Well XMAS Walk with the dog (its all his fault) saw this unusual motor for the road.

1975 3500cc Petrol (I am guessing that's the Buick Engine) 2 Axle Landy

rain soaked look inside (looks very cold to me even with any heat from engine)

Then we spotted a couple old Landys quietly rotting away in a scrap yard for spare parts I am told

And finally a very sensible place to park you Morris Minor

What a great place to be dog walking!
 
Yes it was like walking through a proper scrap yard where you climbed over cars and took off the bits you needed (now that is going back)

Last time I went to a scrap yard like that was 2011.
I had an Austin Allegro and they got a scrap one in, even in 2011. But it had a brand new primed wing on it.
I called on my way home from work, took my cordless drill and spanner’s, got the wing and several other bits of it and paid something like £50 for the lot.
I miss those days.
