OOP 575 1954 - Is the owner here?

Post by barnesmorris »

Hi

I have just bought an early MM and I have been given the history of another car with it... reg is OOP 575 and it would be great to find the owner of said car - as per other post it is not currently taxed but is still alive... somewhere.... does anyone know who owns it?

Thanks in advance

After a quick search, Google shows the car as a new registration, KDG163 and was on sale at auction in September.
It also says it was a 1951 ?

I think they are two separate cars. Different registrations numbers, different ages, different models, different colours and different chassis numbers :wink:

I knew the owner of OOP 574 - a 54 s2 Birch Grey 2 door! Not sure where it is now though

The auction write up claims to have the original 'buff logbook' in the reg number of OOP575 - I surpose a cherish swap could have been done or maybe an ID swap of some kind. Seems strange that one registration is linked to 2 Morris Minors though.
