The later part of 1999 and the early part of 2000 has seen a resurgence of these six cylinder farina cars in Ontario. We scrapped two more cars which can be seen in the pictures below. We also bought an original 6/99 Wolseley from Ottawa, Ontario. The 1968 A110 mkii we took out of the snowy field last year has come a long way with the use of a shop for a couple of weeks. There are also some pictures from a local meet.

BRITISH CAR PICNIC:
WOLSELEY 6/99 PURCHASE:
We bought this beautiful, original 6/99 Wolseley from an Ottawa family in October of 1999. The same family purchased it in 1961 from Gullivers Motors (Hamilton, Ontario). A local British car mechanic was resourceful enough to keep it running and well maintained. The pictures tell the story. We drove the car home, however we still did a lot of work on the car which is not evident in these pictures.
