Sounds like it might be another case of 'It can sit there 'til I die' type cases.

Is this car in Trowbridge?

The elderly-ish driver of a black 1300 had my original 1300sc a number of years ago. I dropped it off for him. His English wasn't great....

If its the same person then he has a whole cars worth of spares!

Fast becoming a contender for most boring thread of the year....

why because it is about a 1300 or just because you don't have any intelligent input?

Do I ever?
No its because its degenerated into chat about cars that may or may not exist and may or may not be at locations unknown...

The sort of thing that should be in PM's...

Anyway I write a lot of boring drivel too....just poking some fun as we tend to do....

Jonners

The car is known to exist and the location is known, it started as a question so no not something that should be in a PM.

I'm not bored but then some might say I am easily amused. give me an empty box and it will keep me happy for hours.

It is indeed in Trowbridge, in the Studley Green area! I presume he's Polish as he lives as a 24h carer in 'the woman from work's grandmothers house (who's Polish), but he has car parts all over the place inside apparently and naturally that's upsetting the grand-daughter, so she's trying to persuade him to get rid of it if he's not going to fix it up, but he's being rather stubborn!

I've never met him but certainly sounds like him!

parts all over the house Hmmm sounds familiar.

Where is this empty box then? I thought it was in Yorkshire but someone said it was sold to a bloke with a limp who lives in the midlands

I take it all back...the thread is now very interesting...

Jonners

The box is in my workshop I played with it earlier today. And it's not of cardboard construction.

I think there must be more than one of these boxes.
I've got one in my loft - it sometimes has a few old hydraulic cylinders in it, so i guess its not then empty.

Jonners

There are a few empty boxes between the ears of some folk around here. Lol.

Ah but empty boxes are easy to find, its the one with that vital spare in that you need that you cannot find when the car breaks down and suddenly is found after you have bought a new spare.

Now it is an empty box as hurl the offending spare through the window
Now where is that box with the spare window glass in?

Reg will testify that I had just such an empty box yesterday when i ws trying to find my stash of SU jets...

If anyone finds said box for me please hide it again....
