Triumph TR6 for a wedding car.....
Discussion
Spotted this on Twitter earlier this morning. The tweet pretty much explains it all.
From @idriveaclassic.....
"I NEED YOUR HELP!
A friend is getting married on June 6th. Her grandad built this car and it was sadly sold after he passed away and she’d love to have the car at her wedding as her wedding car.
I’d appreciate any help reuniting Holly with the car for her wedding!"
The thread explains that the car was sold in the East Anglia area in 2013 and shows up as not having an MOT. Some folk have pointed out that as it's >40 years old, it doesn't need an MOT (is that right?); others have said that you can't contact the DVLA to get owners details any more.
Any help would be very welcomed, I have no connection with the OP. It's just a nice story.

Shows the car is currently registered until beginning May 2020, so it's still being run.
Try asking the TR Register. They won't give you the owner's address, either, but might contact them for you. See: https://www.tr-register.co.uk/contact
Good luck!

PS Oh! I see, it's not your granddad's car, but someone on Twitter. Sorry, I'm not on Twitter. Pass on the tip if you go there?

I will do, John, and thanks for your help. Shows the car is currently registered until beginning May 2020, so it's still being run.
