As you all know, I was looking at Travellers from March 2013 to June this year I it wasn't on the market place then but I did appreciate the warning I got about the Gloucestershire area. I even HPI'd the one I got and made sure I collected it from the registered keeper, at the address on the V5 after checking the chassis no on the HPi to the V5 and car.
It is a nice looking car but I am anal, the front seat stitching being the opposite direction to the stitching on the rear seats would really get on my nerves. In the same way my rear lights are out of line, I'm ruluctantly going to have to add rear indicators to rectify this.

I note the offside boot door check strap has an extra reinforcing bracket added to the door - quite a good idea, as they seem to frequently work loose.

The one lurking in the background of photo 2 certainly appears to have issues...

OOL 1 was a Feb 1954 issued number, but not direct to that, maybe, early 60's car. Number could have been transferred on to the traveller at a later date, and the exact history been lost in the 'mists of time'. Shouldn't be advertised as a 1954 minor though.

It would appear to be another post-1962 car, with the later heater, wipers, front indicators, etc. Probably quite an early 'transition' car though, as the dashboard switches are the earlier pull type.
I've never seen a Minor's handbrake lever go that high before!
Also, the rear valence appears to be made of wood, and there are extra mysterious coachbolts in the rear pillars below the rear lamps, which I've never seen before.

EWD 546, as on the other traveller, is a very rare May/June 1946 registration. If it was 546 EWD it would have been issued December 1962/Jan 1963.
Traveller OOL1 has now been withdrawn from sale by the seller!
