that price has gone up a fair bit.

hope you win it Onne, if you do I'd be more than happy to help digitise the images (hi-res photo or pan of 4 photos of each would do it) and put them up on the web somewhere for all to benefit from.

Only just though!

I hope to collect them in the very near future

I am picking them up this thursday. There are more than 50... maybe as many as 100.

I wonder how I am going to get this in the Minor, I might have to do two runs!

buy my rangerover onne it will fit in the back of that

Sss I hav pcked them all up, about 100 drawings in total, sadly hardly any of them have the model name on them, just the part no, sometimes model no .

But a good find

Another very sad thing is that BL in the 70s stuck new drawings over old ones, I have so far seen what looks like a prewar gearbox underneath a newer drawing

I wonder if Bill drew any of them!!!!

Posted: **Thu Mar 15, 2007 5:11 pm**

1950's must be about right!!!!

Only found one Morris Minor one so far (for sure)

Sadly I can't find any reference to codenumbers anywhere.

What was the Minors codename? Something like the ADO16 of the 1100 range?

I am about halfway through them now, will continue today.

Won't be an ADO number as ADO is 'Austin Drawing Office' IIRC...

Posted: **Fri Mar 16, 2007 9:17 am**

Well, there are a lot of Austin drawings there.

DO 1032 is just Drawing Office 1032....

Posted: **Fri Mar 16, 2007 10:41 am**

Onne, ADO is the Austin Drawing Office!!! Have a look here, scroll down the left a click on 'Project codes' ;)

Posted: **Fri Mar 16, 2007 6:01 pm**

That helps with the Austin ones

Now for the Morris ones...

I have found a code BS 4, on tow occasions so far, referring to partnos. ATC 7188 and BTC 296
