I'm sure someone will know...
My first thought was Roger Shea but I think not.

Well, the journey started 28th April 1961, from what it says on the door...

Roger’s was later than this and took a different route.

Very interested to find out more about this journey….

Looks like the king-pins have taken a bit of a beating.

Just what I was thinking, Mike. I like where the side lights are situated - inboard side lights! Perhaps they never made it past Seoul.

I have not seen the AUSTIN badge that is on the radiator grill before. Is that a standard badge for Austin Sevens?

I think the Austin badge is from a 1950s (maybe 1960s) commercial.

Well it’s not a Clive Ball or John Coleman.
Or Brian Milton.
