Prob a Morris 8, Ford Zepher Hi-line they also did a Lo-line model as well.
built between 1959-61.

The wig wearing pageant held over the bank holiday weekend are as follows,

3rd place went to Mr Morris Quiest of Marple.a 3/4 length rug made from a bath mat and neatly cut to fit by his wife Mable.

2nd place went to Mr Ivor Calation from Glossop,a rather smart full rug weaved by his son Malcolm out old woolen socks.

1st place(with honours) went to Dr Cornelius Dobberman of 'The scalpel'in High Disley for an Axeminster'full set' with underlay cut to perfection by his senior nurse Miss Audrey Chimes of the same address(don't ask)

No, it was definately an Austin, looked like a sit up and beg Ford Prefect/Popular with a bull nose radiator grill. Also the Austin badgework was a bit of a clue. One size down from the Ten.
The LoLine was a restyled HiLine, the main change being the roof line, hense the Hi/Lo nicknames; there were also changes made to the grill, front and rear parking lights as well as the dash. The two tone LoLine Zodiac was a very attractive car.
