Took 90 seconds to load like, and when I click on it here, it comes up as a red x until I right click and click on 'show picture'
All VERY complicated.

I've got several more from yesterday, but I'll have to sit down quietly for an hour to do it I thinks. ::)


 :thumbsup:

Got chatting to the owner of this stunningly excellent condition Buick 1958 circa.
Not a big fan of Yankee cars normally, but this one WAS actually awesome, 'specially when he fired it up....all 7 litres of it! eeek:

His day car?
A Festa Bravo, same colour as mine! lol:
He doesn't like todays digi laden motors :thumbsup:

Got talking to another geezer with an owld Volvo, who's going to be at the Bodelwwydan Castle show next weekend (weather permitting)
He's bringing a mint Austin 1300GT that has the bulkhead signed by the great Paddy Hopkirk no less! eeek:

One of my all time favourites from the archives of my previously owned too. cloud9:
I shall take piccies for the few that are interested. :thumbsup:

No, mine is a 1973 so I believe it is correct to have the Blue BL badge on there - this is what it looked like.



I have the front suspension fitted now - I'll take another picture later...
