McDonald Kane
 
Hello all, I am restoring a 1982 TK, she has a fibreglass body coachbuilt by a company called 'McDonald Kane' The lady we purchased her from thinks that they were a local company from Notts or Derby but Google draws a blank every time.

As I cannot find them I am pretty sure they are no longer trading however I am interested in finding out more about the old girl so any information would be gratefully received!

I have also found out that she was first registered in Carlisle although I'm guessing that this doesn't make any difference in relation to where McDonald Kane were based!

Cheers,
Mike

I've tried various approaches to try and find any references to McDonald Kane but without success . . .

I found this: http://www.cdrex.com/mcdonald-kane-m...d-5623837.html
Dissolved in 1997, could this be the one you're looking for?
