Re: Heatwave 76 Gina I got a Cortina...................

Good to see this thread again, welcome back! Very solid floors which is kind of a nice surprise as they used to rust away especially if the windscreen leaked, my first car a 1962 Anglia back in 1972 had a hole in the floor on the passenger side where water had been coming in.

Re: Wobland Spottage

I'm quite surprised by the amount of owners that, after the DVLA fucked up and sort of made them legal, rushed out and replaced their original reflective plates on their 1973-1980 classic vehicles with black and white plates in the mistaken belief that it somehow makes their vehicle cool. It does no...

Re: Austin A70 Hampshire

I also now have a Hereford Coupe. Before you get too excited it is of course a 1/43 model in cream. Just thought, got another one with the top up, the new one is top down. Kind of sad to see the old LOB cut up but it was way past saving. That chap's Hereford Coupe is lovely, not sure if I've ever se...

I spy the Mk1 Consul/Zephyr in the background of the white '58 Cadillac. Great photos of great cars from an era before today's autonomous blobs.

Toad is pissed off because the '58 has gone again.....
'If the radio's gone that means the car has gone'. I know you'll get that line. I must be a sad git as I know what the majority of those cars are as no doubt do you. Excellent photos from Mr animals.
