Varsity nose

The following is the text of an e-mail that I received today, if you recognise yourself or know of this person could you please ask him to contact me.
Derek, website owner.

“I have had a request to help trace this gentleman – not much to go on but if you know him please let me know and ask him to contact Wright’s Garage to let them know what he wants doing with the Varsity Nose..

Below is a copy of the email I received.

Subject: WL627

Further to my previous comments, Anthony Wright has been pruning – and then some. The Varsity nose is now in a bit of a state, but I have the full recent story which may be of interest.

Apparently, some guy who lived Finningley way dropped in to Wright’s garage and put a deposit on the Varsity nose. It seems his dad had been in the RAF and been with 6 FTS. He was intending to start some sort of enthusiast/preservation group over there. About three years ago, he popped in one Saturday and paid the balance and said he would be back with a truck on Monday. He never showed – and Anthony doesn’t now know his name. So he hasn’t liked to get rid of the nose because it isn’t his – but it’s just been left there! If any reader knows who this guy is, can you get him to contact Wrights garage.”
