Out of interest does anybody no if the car built by dutton forshaw from parts in the 70s still exists? Think it was a green one registered on a n plate?

Yes, it still exists and was at last years MMOC National Rally at Stanford Hall. There's an article about the car on the 'Home' page (A unique morris minor) - see main menu to your left. This is only viewable by club members though so if you are a member just enter the passwords on page 4 of the latest addition of Minor Matters to read all about it.

No, if you were half right the other half would also be right, but just not there.
