I think the car that belonged to the guy who supplied many of the props to the farm as a collector of wierd stuff based in East Sussex. He was also a motorcycle courier going into London and I believe it while at this work he suffered a fatal accident. Name escapes me at the moment, Niles? Also cannot remember if this was the Schmitt that had a Lambretta engine put in it! Sacrilege and he had a hard time of it at, I think it was Chedder Rally, only relieved when Wynford and I hove into view with the Messerschmitt Shorty bought from just down the road that morning. This gave the scoffers another target. Despite which both machines were got going and drove round, which was more than some pretty pretty towed stuff could manage. Pillocks.
