Hello all, I'm new here Thought I should post up some pics of cars I've found on a farm belonging to a mate of mine. Waddya reckon? ;D car number one: Black Moggy Traveller, 1962/3 ish with a nice numberplate All tucked away... Not too bad underneath.. Last taxed 1979!! Car number two: Wolseley 16/60. Can't get to the front end of this one. 1969 G reg. Car number three: Unknown! - waddya reckon it is? Theres loads of spares tucked away too, a whole spare wolseley engine, bonnets, bootlids, hundreds of wolseley doors (well, not quite literally but at least 3 cars worth...). How's that for a first post?

Top findings there! Shame about the Moggy, it's probably beyond saving...they are smashing to drive as well :-)

Excellent first post mate. TOP finds too. Last one dunno but is it for sale? Cheers, I'm hoping I can save them myself but I doubt I'll be allowed to keep 5 cars so there may be a possibility of it coming up for sale in the future. great first post - mystery car could be so many things they all look a bit crusty though I was actually pleasantly surprised by the conditions considering I don't think they've turned a wheel between them in 25 years. I've taken several pics of the underside of the Morris and it doesn't look too bad It's growing interesting colour mould on the woodwork though welcome wasn't pheonixC after a 16/60? bit far gone on the rear quarters tho top findings! I'm fairly sure I found a rear quarter hidden away. I need to have a better look Great stuff! The last one looks quite small...perhaps an Austin 7? Cheers I know it's something fairly old, at the minute I'm thinking Ford model A or similar. I don't know a lot about anything quite so old Here are a couple more pics: The last one is a whole front panel for the wolseley hanging up against the wall

I think that the old car (last one) is probably a morris 8. Back Doesnt look right for model A.
I am seriously interested in it mate, whatever it turns out to be, if it does come up for sale and you don't want it or want to pass it on then please think of me.
