There must still be remaining Longbridge workers that could tell it's story.


Quote from MCR forum on this 1275GT:
"My father in law worked at longbridge years ago for a long time, i showed him the mini pic and he remembered it, he said it fell off the conveyer so they just dragged it out of the way. He also told me that this particular car would have been built to the stage it was at in the pic at castle bromwich as it is already painted and has a rear subframe fitted."


Ah interesting! Someone save it!
Who owns the Longbridge site? I'm sure they would be able to arrange for it to be uplifted, maybe TMF could raise the money? I'd be up for helping in any way I could.
