Had a great visit with Andre yesterday. Only wish he was closer.

Default Ian ...
That's either the world's smallest C15TA, or the worlds smallest photographs.

It looks good either way.

There were two in this part of the world. Tom Bowman in Gateshead picked up a complete example from Shap many years back, and there was one in a woodyard which is still in this area, now driving around as a restored driving chassis and front end.

Excellent restoration and great job of saving it from the scrapman and the elements, looks very very good. Tim how is your 75mm going?

Ian John's has just been to PQ to visit Andre and he was kind enough to send me these photos. As usual Andre is doing a magnificent job.

Cheers,
Barry
