David B. Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) In the early 1960's students from Oxford University travelled from Oxford to Morocco in a 1944 Austin K2 Ambulance. The trip was reported in "Payload" the Austin commercial vehicle magazine in a two page article in the May/June 1963 issue a copy of which was sold recently on Ebay. I bid unsuccessfully,thinking it would not sell for very much and have now come to regret my low £5 bid as I would dearly like to read this article. Oxford is my home town,I have a K2 and I have spent a little time in Morocco - I'm not proposing to repeat the trip but I would like to read the article. Can anyone help with a photocopy or scan of this magazine article - perhaps even the purchaser ? All reasonable expences would be covered if anyone can help with a copy. Any help in locating the magazine article or any other accounts of the trip would also be greatly appreciated. David Belcher Edited February 7, 2013 by David B.
