Probably delisted because they were no longer a public company with traded shares. They held the Land Rover franchise until 30/6/73. Leyland Truck and Bus Division became the distributor for Qld. and Northern NSW and the Brisbane retail outlet on 1/7/73.Quote:

Righto - but I provide a factual timeframe....genuinly interested in some evidence for your date......I cannot find any reference beyond '71..... and perhaps somewhat unrelated, although....A&T related.... can you, or the good Uncle, as knowledgeble folk on all things A&T, answer my question in the SLOW area then? :DQuote:

Moderator Hat On.
This is sounding very close to a personal attack. We don't want them here in the series section.
If you think the information needs clarification, say what you have and don't frame it that you only want facts because the previous member posted urban myth. (paraphrasing here)
Otherwise we will be asking members to cite references from peer reviewed scientific and industrial journals.
It's not what we want here.

Details above show that they were taken over by LNC holdings (Lark Neave & Carter). Some more info on the VeeDub website 1970 - 1974 - Club VeeDubQuote:

I found an Annand & Thompson Holdings still registered. Trading in QLD but registered in NSW, maybe this is the company you referred to Diana ?
