Really, what are the chances of a rare Morris Minor pickup driving by (as it appears) while he is taking these pictures? That's crazy! Malcolm
Even more amazing if Jersey is "the place where rust never sleeps", as Minor Pickups (all Minors, for that matter), were made from powdered rust!
Actually, Jim, now that I think of it, the first concept stuff we talked about for your Caddy, was to follow the styling of these cars, Delage, Delahaye, Talbot. Remember?
Hey, To check out more of these "Deco Styled" French coachbuilt vehicles check out these sites: www.delage.org. and the www.clubdelahaye.com and http://amicale:salmson.free fr/ sommaire.html. look at the gallery areas of these sites and also, the '' manifestations" areas. Look at the coupes, cabriolets and coaches. 'sorry I can't provide the links directly as I'm a techno retard livin' in a 2.1 century. If ya study the lines of these designs that the French designers were working on in the early to mid thirties ya see Westergard, Coachcraft, Sam Barris, Bertalucci (sp) any good Kustom of this era, all shaired these French design lines. The Italian coach- builders, before WWII and after, sure had some lines, but the french were the ones whos' lines carried over to Kustoms. Swankey Devils C.C.
