Morris FG truck 1960 sold as Austin 404


Anyone who surfs the Internet is used to 404 messages, so it will seem an odd name to give a truck to us now.  In 1960, however, that didn't arise. The use of 'truck' rather than the standard British 'lorry' together with the right hand drive indicates that this is an export brochure for NZ and Australia and the stamp is that of a dealer in the small Wairarapa town of Greytown.  More info and pics here
