Thanks for the work on this- it's amazing what you've done and that this forms the only record of Marinas and Itals. I was expecting you only to have somewhere around 1000 records. It must be really fascinating recreating a record of the cars/commercials. I find that yet more still seem to pop up on the internet! Appreciating the earlier point that some of the information is confidential are there plans to publish some that isn't e.g photos or a new version of the list that's on the forum? No worries if not. I also appreciate that you do this in your own time so thanks for that too.

Photos are tricky as I tend to download whatever I find on the internet and I know some people can be picky about having their photos shared with others and it just hasn't been practical to ask everybody for permission to share it. In hindsight I should have made a note of which details were given to me in private or inherited from private club records so I could make public a 'censored' version. I would dearly love for the whole thing to be available to everyone but some people have been upset when I have put chassis numbers in the club magazine of their car (even though I did it before they even owned the car and had permission from the owner at the time!). I could do one with just reg numbers as unlike chassis numbers anybody walking past your car can see your reg number, but it does then come with another issue in that the data reveals quite a few of the ringers that are in the club and I'm not sure their owners would want everybody realising what they have done (and some are owned by people who don't realise it and I wouldn't want to cause upset)

One of my early offerings on the forum was a recollection of KRB with the best of only three photos I have, and one of those only shows wing damage. I used to be superstitious about photographing my cars - usually if I took nice pictures, not long after I'd find a reason to sell.

Thanks for the explanation and I understand the points- every one found is another one for the record.

Any good to you Josh? The car was scrapped in the mid 80's. Some of the parts I picked up from Newport were from this.
I don't have any other details about it except it was a teal blue coupe with a yellow interior, I think it's called Ochre.
