Morris Minor Reg No: NBB 41

Speaking with my neighbour I have learnt that his father Dr Neil Cardoe used to rally Morris Minor Reg No: NBB 41 in the 1950s especially around the Lake District.
The car was modified with an Alexander head and twin carbs.
Dr Neil Cardoe is still with us and is interested to hear anything about the car after his ownership and what became of NBB 41.
Any information regarding the car will be gratefully received.
Phil

If you look at this link there is an article n page 7 in the top left corner "Motoring Notes" is this the same Dr Neil Cardoe ?

The registration doesn't appear on the DVLA database, so not a good start, does he have any record of who he sold it to?
Best wishes,
Mike.

That is the Dr Neil Cardoe.
He studied at Durham University.
Thanks

@Phil, I wonder if he knew all these years later his driving days made that paper.
