Re: Picture of Glasson pre club

The other car on the waste ground looks like a Ford 100E Popular/Prefect/Anglia. If it is one then the other motor is the right size for a mini.

The appearence may be due to the fact that they have a couple of dogs but is more likely caused by a year at secondary school. The point about retrieving them is that a better pair doesn't have to be destroyed sailing.
