This may be of interest to you, the Morris Oxford van in the background of the picture of the Adler on page 16 of the September issue was owned by me from the early 1980s and used as race transport when I raced in VMCC events.
It was previously owned by Colin Hopkinson of Tydd who had it from new and was a regular visitor to the Isle of Man and other mainland circuits with his pal, Brian Denehy, who I believe raced a Manx Norton. I think it now resides in Oxford.
Oliver Williams, Tydd.
