Ok, I have contacted Nutley historical society and am awaiting a reply.

 

Thanks for the good call.

No problem, I tried that avenue with my Mk2's dealer and had a good response.

Sounds promising then.

 

Surely with them being in business between 1948 and 1998 there must be someone out there that has a few items left like dealer window stickers and if there are, i really want to get in touch as it would finish y project off nicely.

Fingers crossed for the historical soc and B&B trailers - I'd seen the company info too, and thought the same - if they were around for 50 years, be nice if you could track down some other info, even if it's just photos. Happy hunting!

B&B trailers replied.

This is what they wrote:

 

I purchased these premises in 1998. It was owned by the Griffiths family from some time shortly after WW2. They started with BMC in 1964 & followed through till Oct 1990 with Austin Rover. I don't have much more information than detailed above.

 

So that's a bit more info!
