One of those funny coachbuilt vans the USPS use and a digger outside Grand Central.

That Volvo 240 would just look wrong if it wasn't slightly faded...

 

This was my most recent spot yesterday, when I had the weekly pilgrimage to the local Royal Mail Delivery Office - because our postie is incapable of ringing our doorbell.

Slightly surprised to see it out when there was salt on the roads...Braver than me!

Shame it's got one of those awful Patriots soiling the picture; easily the worst car I've driven in a long time. Shit, not shite.

It's remarkable what you read in the local advert sheet.

Was having a quiet beer yesterday lunchtime when out of the corner of my eye I noticed something small and red moving about on the carpark at the back of the bar. Parking up. Oooooh.

 

 

What have you got there?....................a little red mini of vintage so rare.

No idea on most American cars so judging as this looks similar to a green hot wheels that's knocking about I'm going to say this thing hiding behind a motorbike dealers today is a Plymouth.

I'm not really that au-fait with 70's Mopars, but I think it could be a72(?) Charger rather than a Plymouth, although there could well be a Plymouth badged version.

Someone will be along that knows the option codes for the stripes, no doubt.
