This is exactly the thinking behind my 2008 drive to liberate my projects into the hands of those with more time! The cms body is being offered to the people who expressed interest, in order, and then if it remains unsold it will progress to the marketplace. Once sold I will progress to the next project! :shock:
if it's got wheels or chips - it'll cost you dear

A worthy endeavour Toby! No takers for the CMS body yet?

Just working a bit on the SV survivor's list. I have 85 survivors with chassis numbers recorded in Gren's list - last updated 2004. And 24 recorded with chassis numbers currently in the hands of VMR members, out of about 32 SV Minors in the hands of VMR members in total. I'm in the process of pulling all this info together to generate an up to date SV survivors list. There are over 300 cars on Gren's list, but most don't have chassis numbers recorded.

Ian,

If you need chassis numbers etc for the 1933 (1934 season) Minor two door saloon DG 7729 that I rescued from Harold Goodeys scrapyard at Twyford in 1963 let me know. The car thankfully has been restored again and was living in Kent (I think). I think you have a picture of her but don't know if the owner is in contact.
Likewise for '34 two seater OW 4224......
