A few Morries in a shed!
Had an hour to kill yesterday before catching a flight from Napier to Auckland. A colleague of mine said "you should go and see Ian, he's got a few Morries in his shed" - lets just say it's bit more than a few.....

Yeah, there is a pile of vans outside gently decomposing themselves - and as far as I know, he doesn't sell anything. He told me that he has 40 grandkids and has a 4-door minor for each of them when he passes on!

Best give them one now, he can then enjoy seeing them being usedLanceNZ wrote:Yeah, there is a pile of vans outside gently decomposing themselves - and as far as I know, he doesn't sell anything. He told me that he has 40 grandkids and has a 4-door minor for each of them when he passes on!

I'll remind him next time I'm over in NZ!
Re: A few Morries in a shed!
I visited there about 3 years ago and was told the same story. I wanted some NZ AA badges to add to my collection but he wont sell them either.Its an amazing Museum - if only we could set up something like that here.LanceNZ wrote:Yeah, there is a pile of vans outside gently decomposing themselves - and as far as I know, he doesn't sell anything.

We were on our way south heading for the Morrie Convention in Christchurch after visiting the Bay of Islands etc and spotted a few interesting Morries on route.
