Judging by all that rust, I'd say he's over-watered it ;D

I heard about this wagon at the Nationals, and apparently it's been there for 10 years or so.... since the Nats I've been back 3 or 4 times but never found anyone at home....

Nick, I dropped a note in the letterbox, along with a newsletter, asking if I could grab the ID plate numbers etc for Ken (and others including yourself). I also asked what the plans were for it, whether it was for sale, to restore, wanted to join a club, it's junk etc etc, but have heard nothing back yet. I wouldn't mind a few parts from it myself, the aerial makes me keen to see if the radio is still there etc...

For all I knew it could've been a parts car for another one in the shed (doubt it!) or home to the local gnomes.... :P but I was keen to at least have a closer look.... those pics were taken looking over the fence....

It seems to be fairly easily spotted from the road, and I imagine the owner is sick of people sticking notes in the letterbox about it, but we'll see....

Chers
Les...

Thanks Les,
Strange that all the chrome has been removed down the sides, maybe a parts car? or someone nicked them .. but then the petrol cap is still there!  also noticed a quicksilver sticker on the back window which says someone younger drove it or likes to go for a paddle(surf)..
We shall see
