A friend of mine sent me these photo's of him and his car back in the 50's and wondered if she is still about, can anyone help. He would like to let the present owner have copies.

Hi Bruce,
if its a TC, you could try asking the T Register.
there also be a search on their website where you can enter the Reg Number from memory :)

Bruce, try the octagon club facebook page, a very helpful lot on there and I would guess that someone will be able to help.

Did it provide, or do we know the chassis number?

Bruce,

I stand to be corrected, but I'm pretty sure that The T Register don't know who the owner is.

The car was in the York area in the 1950s.

It has been off the road for several years and is currently on SORN.

The date of the last V5C is stated as 28th August 2019, which might indicate that the car has changed hands recently.

I run a 'Lost & Found' feature in my bimonthly magazine 'Totally T-Type 2', which does have some success in tracing owners. If your friend cares to contact me I can include the details on the next issue.
