Title: Series 1 Spyder & the late John Ward of Patrick Collection Post by: Ashley frater on March 17, 2013, 02:57:03 PM It appears that my series 1 Spyder was owned by the late John Ward (Curator of the Patrick Collection) from 3rd Jan 1980 so I am keen to find out anything about him and his involvement with my car. My car was then owned by Brenda afterwards who I presume was his wife.
I am presuming the MRW 300 plate that was added was a personalised plate for Mr W. Prior to that it was lnh552p and now it's swp427p. It's amazing looking through the MOTs between 1980 - 1999 and seeing that LJ Morris (hillside Garage, Bromsgrove) signed off most of them. Unless it's a coincidence the MOTs for 2000 and 2003 the MOT tester was A D Morris but by then the car was based down in Yeovil. i know the car was auctioned around 2000 which would explain the relocation down South. It was then owned by Barry John Dodd for a number of years and I think it then swapped hands due to ill health. Any info anyone can offer would be very welcome. Thanks Ashley |
