JDCSA - Classified Adverts Editor: The following information was sent to Register Secretary Bob Charman by Olive Wade regarding a series of old cars (including Jaguars) that have been stored in a shed for many years by her late husband. Dear Bob, attached are pictures of the cars, well 3 of them. The Daimler is in a shed where I have difficulty opening the door. As I said they are all filthy as they have been stored for many years. ◊ 1955 MK VII 6 cylinder, green, also green inside. My husband did use and start it, then he started doing some sort of work on it before he passed away. ◊ 1980? SEL Mercedes Benz, also 6 cyl, white. The vehicle was started only a few weeks ago. ◊ 1980? 4.2 litre, 6 cyl, S2? (not sure about these things) Burgundy, black inside. Husband dropped another engine in it but nothing connected up, there is also a spare parts car for this one. ◊ No Photo - The Morris Isis is a 1955 model 6 cyl, black. The Morris Isis was imported by my father-in-law directly from UK when they emigrated here in 1959. I also have workshop manual for this car. ◊ The Daimler is a 1968 4.2 litre, white, lambswool inside. I know this one needs the brakes and exhaust system seeing to. All cars need some TLC and work done on them. I have workshop manuals for them all and other Jaguar books, also a lot of vintage and classic car books. Olive Wade, 32 Adelaide road, Kapunda, SA 5373.

This is what it looked like when we bought it many years ago.
