Wellers are great wheels , got these later style ones on this . Top job on the welding

My first car was a Stiletto , bought for £60 in 1980

Thats terrible news at any time let alone now , life can be brutal

Il need a sex change - then I can be Beyonce

Well this has got another years ticket but not without a fair list of advisories , rear tyres are Monarch and only 3 years old , not worried about these however the rusty bits are a worry . Think this its last year , run it til the MOT runs oot then its scrap time

Commer Cob name was used on the Minx based ones , it was dropped on the Imp , just called a Commer Imp van , late ones were Hillman Imp van

I can tell you its not mine , I do know Its a Commer Imp van that someone cut side windows into , then the panels which were kept were refitted using rubber screen seals . Mine is also a Commer Imp van and has had the side windows added sometime before 1974 which are still there

Uber rare van on the left , uber posh car and plate on the right

Well I knew about Studebaker Larks - and the Wagonair estate version - what I didnt know was the roof at the rear retracts into the front half to make a pick up . How feckin cool is that

Braver man than me , my 56 C180K has been a mare although not lately after a huge bill last MOT

First off I dont live or go anywhere near Londinium however on R2 today there was much talk of the ULED being expanded to almost all areas within the M25 . That might well feck up the Autoshite massive 🤔

Mk6 is just plain fugly as well

Massive regret was from way back in 1981 , Offered a MK2 3lt Cortina Savage in factory black for £100 with a blown diff and very dodgy brakes , i had the money but my Pops told me no way would i get insurance at the tender age of 17 - he was probably right but i regret it to this day '

Probably bias but i do like a W203 in black

Whats the van on the end with the lemon shaped rear window ?

Thanks , I stand corrected , my gearbox really was shite either way

Had a D reg one same colour , a 60 S no less , thought the S was sport but in reality it was Selecta ie. 5 speed , box was hideous , every change felt like your stirring a bowl of Porridge with a bendy straw

I recon everyone on here knows of these but ive never heard of them until today . The Pontiac Catalina They changed over the years but 1959 seems to be the bonkers " style over everything " phase There was even a one off " El Camino " pickup
