Another tourer - of sorts - is for sale in Henfield, Sussex right now. This is the ex-Keith Johnston, ex-Jim Worth car, UO 9795, chassis M3424. Although it started life as a tourer on 4th March 1929, it was totally rotten when found on a farm by Keith in the eighties. He proceeded to build a very loose copy of a tourer body for it, covered with ply and wider than the original. It has numerous other non-original modifications. Jim Worth searched for an original body for it while it was in his ownership, but he never found one. A full article on the car by Keith was published in the Autumn 1993 Morris Register Journal.

Jim can be contacted at (01273) 857455.

Definitely not one for the faint-hearted!

Here's a photo of Keith in the newly-recommissioned vehicle:
