Is this a new one Malc? I shot it at Action 1987.

DVLA says it's a 1955 and is taxed until August this year.

I know I also shot a small window standard not on your list Malc. Trying to find the pics, trouble is back then I was shooting both negative and positive and have literally hundreds to find and look through!

And another one Malc! Action again in 88.

Don't know why it's on an E plate, perhaps the original plate was sold in 1967 and it was re-registered with that plate? Anyway, it looks like another RHD standard to me!

There's no mention of it with the DVLA so it doesn't look good it survived.

Loving the NOTEK blue spot fog. If I can't find some mint early Hella's I'm going to fit a pair of those to the the Cabby.

I'm not convinced from those photos it was a standard?

Lots of chrome on the dash and round the door glass. Chrome quarter lights too! :?

It's only the window rubber and lack of side trim that look standard.

Are there any pics of the interior? :?:

Found another one Malc! :wink:

This was advertised in the May 1997 issue of VWM. According to the DVLA TYH 68 is a 57 and the tax ran out in May 1991.
