It is highly unlikely to see the road for a good few years yet but it is safe and sound. Still very solid, underside is all Bedouin! Interior is pretty poor as is a lot of the chrome.
Anybody seen this car?

Picked it up today, it was the one advertised in Classic Car Weekly. Sadly I didn't buy it but it is safe in the hands of another enthusiast and club member. I have first dibs on it

Re: Anybody seen this car?
Seems we have a new oldest known surviver then! 
Tell him the boot badges are round the wrong way josh
should be Morris Marina 1.3. Not Marina Morris 1.3

Re: Anybody seen this car?
Don't worry the new owner is well aware of the boot badge situation 
Such a shame it's been left to get into this state but at least it is still solid. I expect the new owner will be needing some help finding some of the trim.
A few interesting things noticed (well interesting to anoraks such as me and the new owner
), it has a different rubber floor compared with later DLs, it also has much thinner floor retaining strips (sadly all damaged 
).

Re: Anybody seen this car?
Nice pics Josh, interesting door trims, I notice she`s a Deluxe too, so there is a chance TDL is still the oldest Super 1300, either way it`s good to find more early survivors, I liked the Wild Moss car too, some of the early colours were a bit boring but I like them, good stuff mate, keep it up!
