Dead ringer for one of my teachers at middle school in the '70s...!

I've just posted this elsewhere and noticed the lovely BMC / Morris sign in the background... Piccadilly in 1965...

Somewhere in London in '68, nice blue & white Mk1 on the left...

No, it's not Margo Ledbetter in her swinging youth but there's a nice glimpse of a '66 Mk1 Morris 850 with a dented bumper, 9th September 1968...

...and a Panhard PL17. That Fiats a long way from home too.

It wasn't a Cooper as such but iirc, it was a Mini Minor with a 998 Cooper running gear from the factory, an MA2S4 chassis number but 9F engine number. It may have been a police car - lots of Police Rover 3500 SD1's were specially built from 2300 cars with basic trim and no self levelling rear suspension. JOF is a Brum number plate.

Watch 'Robbery' and you can see the 100 mph speedo.

I sold it in 1999/2000 to a well known restorer of Minis. It has yet to resurface however.

It would be interesting to see what Heritage have down in the ledger for that one.

If that happened in the UK the Old Bill would have said " Your Nicked Sunshine "

Last seen on a high street in Potters Bar or some such, and advertised in Motoring News @ 1974 for not a lot.

Seeing as it’s still 1st April here...
