Yes, they are reflectors.

Here's a South African import I spotted at Gaydon last year

Is that Ryno's Wolseley 1000 in the background of a couple of the photos?

Nice! Makes me wish I lived in Joburg.

Is the Almond Green S in the top pic one of yours? Care to divulge the details? Year?

Interesting combination of front bumper and over-riders. Are the SA only or from another BMC model ?
Stunning pictures, and weather by the way.

Thats correct! SA Mk3, which had the normal front and the Wolseley boot. Ryno's car is the white car with a Wolseley nose but normal Mini boot :roll:

Abri, the almond green car on the right in the first pic is a 1967 1275 S, in its original paint! Belongs to the Mocsa chairman. Apologies for the late response, been traveling.
