It has some right lock on.

I think the right wheel in the first pic shows lot of castor, but I am no expert on this stuff...

It's in good nick for an 87 year old car,it would put a lot of 5 year old cars to shame.

NotoriousREV 24 February 2008 10:51 AM

Even in 1921 people thought it was old fashioned ;)

what would scooby do 24 February 2008 11:01 AM

Last of the rover/mg's had the same performance and build quality :D

Leslie 24 February 2008 11:37 AM

Very nice indeed.

Les :)

Shark Man 24 February 2008 12:02 PM

Interesting body....does it have a plate anywhere saying who was the coach builders?

(i.e Rover made the chassis/drivetrain, a coachbuilder made the rest).

Most vintage cars run seriously large amounts of positive camber. Think it was something to do with helping the car stay in a staright line on bumpy unmade roads.

An Austin 12 Tourer I think?

David Lock 24 February 2008 12:11 PM

1929, and the first, and original Morris Minor, those Moggy's are just modern in comparison!!!
