I cannot recall, was it one of the one-day conventions held at Portmeirion, or was it a weekend convention? And the Moke, I take it, it was in Village livery, perhaps the one that used to be housed at Portmeirion, as in the top picture.<br /> I was wondering how the restoration of the Mini-Moke is progressing, but I cannot seem to find out anything. <br /><br /> Anyway good to hear from you.<br />Very kind regards<br />David<br />BCNUDavid Stimpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15196038086564981619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036104775563265647.post-8535310081332997922014-06-20T23:44:18.785+01:002014-06-20T23:44:18.785+01:00Hi, drove a moke around Portmerion at the 1980 6 o...Hi, drove a moke around Portmerion at the 1980 6 of 1 convention.

I was a member of Six of One for 15 years and atteneded every Prisoner Convention at Portmeirion from 1989, my last being in 2001.<br /> At the moment I have heard nothing more about the Mini Moke, but I cannot imagine that the person who purchased the Mini Moke would put it up for sale. I can only imagine she is undergoing a full restoration, how far that restoration has gone I have no idea. But be assured that when I hear something, I shall post the news here on my blog. The Mini Moke CFC 916C, which was kept at Portmeirion by Max Hora during the 1980's into the mid 1990's was in a terrible state of repair and needing complete restoration, for a second time. Mind you when at Portmeirion the Mini Moke was not garaged, and left open to the sea air all the time, and that induces rust.<br /><br /> It was good to hear from you<br />Regards<br />David<br />BCNUDavid Stimpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15196038086564981619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036104775563265647.post-17380210383047236202012-07-26T21:53:21.126+01:002012-07-26T21:53:21.126+01:00hi..have we met?? we have attended the last 3 conv...hi..have we met?? we have attended the last 3 conventions at p/m with our restored 1967 english mini moke..i came across your article about the "found " moke in holland..any news?? i suppose there is no chance its for sale!! although i swore i would never restor another one after my year long battle with Austins RUST!!!regards phill.u.phillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036104775563265647.post-21874368772127577952011-07-05T13:43:43.991+01:002011-07-05T13:43:43.991+01:00Hello Roy,
