We’re traveling back to the picturesque small town of Kylesku, Scotland, in 1968. The city offered a free ferry for much of the 20th century to help residents and visitors alike cross the Kyles River, but the services largely stopped when a bridge was built in 1984.
What cars and vans can you identify in this picture of the Kylesku ferry? Bonus points if you can name the ship.

mg1100
I see a mg1100, Ford Anglia (both in my possession as matchbox models) and maybe a Bedford van in front of it.
How old is the Matchbox Anglia? I don’t think I’ve ever seen that one.
Matchbox made the model from 1961 to 67. Even in the same pale blue color. 🙂
closest to he camera is the Vauxhall Viva,There is an ADO16(I think the MG 1300) Bedford van
