I'd never have considered a Moggy as underlining the greatness of anything - particularly that one! It looks like somebody parked it under a propellor at the wrong time! And there's a little Tiger Cub next to it - I had one of those in sixty something and that wasn't too great, either :-(

Only joking - I know what you mean. They really add atmosphere to those amazing pics. Got any more, please?

I initially thought Hillman Husky, but I think it's too big. Wasn't there a Commer something about that size?

Ian

I think you've got it Ian.. I'm pretty certain that's a Husky.. probably late 50's vintage. The side doors fit the rest of the vehicle in a rather unique way (inset at the rear) and that shot shows just this ;-)

Hi Dave - just done a google image and I now reckon the front is a Hillman Minx but I can't find a pic of one with that body. Maybe a special or a shooting brake

Knew I had one somewhere, but only the rear view.

'Twas my Dad's along with Boxer.

Ah.. that's a posh, later Husky Graham.. last in the line I think. Van/estate version of the Imp if I'm not mistaken The Boxer looks like it's just waiting for someone to make it's day!

I think that's the one. Amazing that I could remember that. Must be from those trips down the A30 from London to holidays in Devon as a kid - "I-Spy" or similar to keep us amused.
