Innocentis

And now.......Caversham Flats, one picture above......with a Mini in it still, albeit 50 odd years on....

Early van out in the snow. I wonder what happened to it?




It went camping after having side windows fitted.




It toured Europe








It gained some roof windows and a flip front




It went out in the snow again




and in the end it got too rusty so donated it's mechanicals to a home built special

Great sets of pics Stu, nice story line too. I think me laddo is photographing an Alfa 2600 Sprint Zagato on his European jaunt.

Edit - just noticed the aftermarket dash and door pocket cushions in the second pic down.

Those pictures are GOLD for Jeroen Booij

Kees.

What a cracking set of photos, priceless!

Mind you I'm not to keen on the lines of the homebuilt special!!!

No. It looks a bit crap doesn't it. Still, a good way of saving all the good mechanicals from a rusty Minivan back then

The Jetstar N3L was owned by Cameron Iron, and sometimes visited Heathrow, as here. It was later converted to twin TFE731 engines, much quieter and less thirsty. Sorry no car content, biz jet geek here...

Bit random, but completely get it, this must of been before the high perimeter fence ?

Dad used to take us up to Heathrow and park on the perimeter road next to the runway to watch the planes coming in.

Simple times....

It will need those nudge bars when it goes into the city

Very nice French advertising from Speedwell and Les leston.

Mid to late 80's I think.
Same owner still has the Mini
