When were these first made available FOR Minor Tourer's?

Exact month would be great, thanks.

I can only give you a rough estimate---6 months either way!

The Z1210x series body codes saw the introduction of the LBM on both 2dr & Tourer models....Zzzzz..."

Would have thought someone on here would know for certain, sometime in 1950 at a guess(?).

Earliest picture I have seen was on a 51 Chris.I wondered if it was because of the fixed window and the discontinuation of the side screens maybe

On later MMs- presumably post 10/50(?) - the hood clips are fixed to what would be an LBM on a 2dr, whereas on pre-10/50(confirmation please) the design at the top of the rear quarter panel is totally different.

Will Ray Newell know the answer to this?

Mr Mamadu would no doubt know, he's just put a flyer under my wipers, he's a 'gifted African spiritual healer and advisor' what ever the problem there is a solution, and you don't pay until you get a result! Can say fairer than that.

[amgrave]

What's wrong with your wipers then Les. Good job Mr Mamadu spotted the problem

[les]

Good job I hadn't spotted Mr Mamadu!

Contact Mr.M. for a reading - worth a punt - providing he doesn't start throwing stones at the wall behind you!

Ouch!

How many squirrels do you see travelling across the world JUST to throw things against a wall? Okay, may have the odd couple from Baltimore, but.....

I'll give Mr Mamadu a miss. Most squirrels are happy to get their kicks nearer to home, it's safer up a tree. They drop nuts rather than throw stones.

Our "regular" takes nuts from my hand - cheeky monkey - probably the only American not to have bombed the cxxp out of anywhere,...or Midland Shire Farmers

[les]

I see plenty of squirrels when I walk the dog, not seen any monkeys though.

[POMMReg]

Surely the availability of these must have been advertised in contempory car/motoring magazines?

And now for something COMPLETELY different...

Anyone on here own a RSA Capetown built saloon - need a pic of the "C" please?

[SteveClem]

Probably one of the most bizarre conversations I have ever encountered. Keep it up...

You don't have to be mad to be on here but it helps
