Thompson mini glenn purchase...

[TVR1]

Looks like I’ve bought this little one. Dry stored for a few years and towed ok before that. Not interested in a Kath Kidson revival as she looks really original. Apparently no leaks but a ? Over the A frame joining the hub. Anyone have one? It’s perfect for what I want to do touring wise.







The seller has sensibly locked the pictures so that’s why they’re a screen shot.

Original gas mantle intact and previous (non original) wiring removed. Still tows on original hookup.

Lovely little thing and an easy restoration by the looks.

AIRC, back in the day, they were designed with MGW to tow with a Mini. I think the wheels are 10" mini ones. My FiL had one to tow with his Viva.

Wise to avoid the Kath Kitson look. It deserves better than that!

Best of luck with it.

Reminds me of our little '76 Ace Diplomat which we towed with a 1.3L Metro. I used to quite like the glow and hiss from the gas mantle lighting with the patter of rain on the tin roof, cosy.
