Yes misread it film contains footage from 1931 - 1969 according to blurb , but end shows pictures of Hillman Avengers so 1971 ?? -- Last edit: 2012-07-11 10:23:40 |

Thanks. Entrenched tribal loyalties - my dad worked for them 1950s-80s, so I was brought up with Huskys, Minxes, Imps, Hunters, Sceptres, Avengers, Rapiers, 180s, Alpine/Solaras etc. |

Ah Alpines, we lived by the sea and watched ours rust away rapidly ! -- Last edit: 2012-07-11 12:47:09 |

Final few seconds has a white Allegro, so May 73 or later for film date. |
