Thread: leyland brothers car found

Looking forward to pics.
Given your time/storage constraints and the offers of donations a AULRO renovation sounds like a great idea.
Labour/parts and $$$ are all on offer.
Have a good think about it

I have no dramas with your suggestions. As I said before lets see what we end up with here. If its to far gone for me to take on I'll ask you guys to chip in and it will be put along side of its older brother in effect Either way it will be available to the public to see. If I keep it.. It will be trailered to places of interest at my expense

That is not entirely correct. Some late 2A 109 Sixes did infact have have the sals. 69 onwards,I've seen heaps of them over the years

Ah all the talk of this vehicle has made me very curious. Will have to go for a journey into Newcastle tomorrow and have a good look. I will take pictures for myself, but shan't divulge in the interests of letting the mystery unravel in good time!

I'd love to have a story and pics for the Feb issue of the LROC News. The Jan issue is at the printer.
