That Zephyr is really nice... Boxes are indeed ticked ! Got a fair few bids on. What are they worth ? I saw the Triumph advertised locall... thik it's more rotten than it looks if I recall... I bet I could swing some repairs down there too. Would be the best opton...

Inspiration?

... the only injury I sustained was a bumped head when I let the seatbelt of without realizing the car was upside down and that's not really the car's fault.

My 2p's worth as a mother of 2 kiddies. We bought the Rapier when my son was 2 and it was great for the 3 of us and all the stuff you have to carry, a year later I had our daughter and it again it was fine. We only got the Super Snipe because it came up for sale and we all really liked it.
The thing to remember as far as boot space etc, is that back in the 1960's & 1970's things like pushchairs tended to be bigger than the ones we use today. My folks had a Hillman when I was born and managed fine for example, they when went on to buy an Avenger shortly after I was born mind you. (You can see where I get my love of Rootes cars from!)
Good luck!

Liking the Triumph, Consul seems to be on my future, 'what if' hit list. and a 100E Roland Rat mobile. Have you thought about a bench seat (3 seat conversion) in the Pick up?

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts
