Hi

My Traveller was registered new in 1964 in Orpington. Just wondered if anyone knows the dealership that would more than likely have sold it?

Thanks

I can't help there Wes, but off on a tangent, this has survived, in my car, for over 63 years. Fixed near the passenger side screen demist vent.

Possibly Burton & Deakin Ltd. Station Hill, Orpington?

They were Morris, Wolseley, Riley and MG dealers around that time.
