Mike I think I recognize it. I'm one of the vehicle organizers of the Weymouth Veterans parade. Some years ago, a carrier was booked in by a Mr White (from memory) in Cornwall. He drove it on our run out to Portland on the Saturday (parade day is Sunday) But it kept breaking down with and electrical fault. The same AA guy visited him at least three times and thought it was a bit of a laugh. I was on one of my bikes as usual and kept an eye him to make sure he didn't get lost. I do remember that it only had 200 odd miles on the clock.
Anyway, the owner told me that he bought it "mint in the box" and had filmed the opening on 8mm film and agreed to get it downloaded onto DVD and send me a copy. I did phone him a couple of times to remind him, but then I heard that he'd died and his family had sold the carrier for quite some considerable amount? Ron
