No Reliants, but had a Berkeley T60 back in the day. Great fun, but parts were hard to get hold of. Wasn't just the body made of fibreglass, most of the exhaust was too & needed re-doing every week (couldn't weld in those days, well still can't  ). I drove it on my car licence & my brother drove it on his bike licence. |

No wonder there aren't many left, the way we treated them. There were loads of 3 wheelers around back in the late 60s, early 70s. A few of the lads I was apprenticed with had Robins, my mate had a Heinkel (the bubble, not the bomber ) & the lad next door had a Bond. Remember him opening the bonnet & sticking his leg in to start it. The Berkeley had a Dynastart. |
