That looks to be the one, well done that man.

Though the picture doesn't work for some reason. Though this one on ebay looks very close.

Fixed pics - put them in my gallery

It was a tough search. The car looks very similar to a Morris, but the headlights were way too low for it to match.

Google images comes through.
