hi keith,
if it is a 143? it’s an early one.i am sure i have a photo of that motor taken years ago…somewhere.can’t think of the name on it now though.
regards andrew.


I would think the total mileage of the vehicles at the show would add up to a very big figure.


An early Volvo F86.Entress from Llansamlett had a lot of these back in the late 60’s and early 70’s.


Most of these still look as good if not better than the modern stuff.

I expect they were a bit underpowered for you Harry.I know several blokes from this area who drove them for Entress.The only thing they favoured over the Atki’s which a lot had previously driven,was the fold down bunk behind the seats.
Cheers Dave.


Moving along the line of F16’s.


I noticed a lot of them had personalised plates.


A South Wales number on this one.
