Tracked and traced …

By February 9, 2022Headline News

In August 2010 an unusual OHC engined 1932 Morris Minor Two-seater was photographed parked-up at the roadside in a Suffolk village with the Warwickshire registration of WD 4459. Nothing was known about the car or its owner at the time and all efforts to track it down later, failed. Fast forward to September 1st 2019 and the car with its crew of Andy Sexton and his wife attended the Network’s Two Breweries Run as guests of ‘regulars’ Dudley Stammers and Rachel. Mystery solved. Move forward again to February 2022 and a request was received via the Morris Register Help-Desk seeking information about the car and its current wherabouts. James Colman, the son of the car’s first owner, (which was bought new in June of 1932), was attempting to track the car down in order to provide the current owner with some detail of its early history and to satisfy himself that the car he knew as a child still survived. Thankfully, the Network’s archive came to his rescue and with the permission of the current owner a happy conclusion is in the offing!
