Joe King:
I have recently come across a Series 1 rolling chassis, see pictures.

This Series 1 has been left on a disused allotment, the land that the allotment is on is also a mystery as to who owns it. The local council have no claims, and the water board and the railways company have no knowledge of the land.  I have been asking about in the area and I've been told that the last user of the allotment was over 5 years ago. He was the son-in-law of the owner of the Series 1, who had the allotment for donkeys years, and who got the Series 1 about 20 years ago as a project. Never got around to doing it. No one knows who the owner is or where he is. The only one to use the land now are 2-3 drug addicts who seem to be living in a shed. They have been there for over a year...or so 1 of then says.
Is there a way of saving this, the chassis is in a remarkable condition concidering where it is.
It shows up on CALVIN as a 1957 SWB 88 Series 1

What I'd like to know is this.

Can I drag this onto a trailer and take it away?  if not how can I go about it?













I would be greatful for your thoughts on this....is it worth it.
There's no body work about at all. It would be a shame to see it rot away.

Rich_P:
That's quite a nice Series 1 there. :shock:

Oh, and hello Tom.  :lol:

blackbob:

Hi Tom,
Get the chassis number and then contact the DVLA, i am sure they will be able to help you.I think if a vehicle has been "abandoned" and nobody claims it, it is supposed to be disposed of, so in a way you might well be doing the council a favour by taking it away...
